Happy now? bass player riffing

[njvixen]

Your playing makes me weak in the knees!  You are SO good!

[chmanbass]

wow i like those quick harmonics, you sound like the bass guitarist equivalent of this guy callled matt marriott, check him out on youtube

[jumbofrets24]

Did you play for Paul Guilbert in Techinal Difficulties? The harmonics sound just like before the breakdown.

[jupiter66]

No Jumbo, but I've heard Paul's stuff! I'm going to take that as a compliment because I think that MIGHT be Giblin playing on that particular recording you're referring to.

[bahamath]

You got some skills man. Might not be the most melodic stuff ever, but it's still pretty impressive. Good job. Gotta love all the morons making fools of themself in the comments too.

[drottsco]

awesome Dan Dan the fast playin' man.

[person4646]

That's sick, I'd love to see you jam out with a drummer. Bass/drums jams are absolutely insane.

i'm a drummer.

[Bassistdan1]

Where ya from 4646? I always love Jammin!?

[person4646]

round boston

[Bassistdan1]

Ok, I posted a new vid here after messing around with YOUTUBE all night but I don't see it here!!

[Bassistdan1]

Test

[thedeanmaster]

goodjob man its fuckin hard to play the bass that fast i know and if anyone gives u shit tell them to post a vid if they think there better cuz there not at all

[Bassistdan1]

Thanks man.............I appreciate your kind words. I just got a webcam so I'm gonna try recording something with it -- and if the quality is decent enough, I'll see if I could figure out how to post more stuff. I want to do something with a drum background this time.

[extremetotehmax]

SHIIIIT!!! sir, "damn ur hella good" is an understatement.

[Bassistdan1]

Thanks VERY much, Extreme! Cheers my brother!

[thegearmusic]

harmonics may not be so impressive but it still sounds great. If you dont like this guy then turn your head away and listen to the music.

[Bassistdan1]

Yeah, thegearmusic! That's what it's all about - THE MUSIC! Thanks man!

[wiibasslife]

so let me get this straight. your faggot freind logged into your name posted a video of you and you didnt say anything about how someone might find it lame that you labeled yourself amazing. ok . well i guess ill see you in hell even if you beat me there by 80 years

[Bassistdan1]

Listen here, Matt, you little 17 year old overweight punk, I'm gonna have my daughter beat the living shit out of you from Livonia to Redford and back again. Now mommy says it's time for bed and to quit pestering the adults on youtube!

[Bassistdan1]

To everyone who posted kind things, I sincerely appreciate it and I really do apologize for the moron below who, obviously has a problem with me for some odd reason. I'm not a cocky person by any means but he just went overboard so I handled it accordingly. I even appreciate the constructive criticism from all of you as well. That's how we learn!

[bassdna]

hahahahah u owned him good bass playing man i to think harmonics on bass will never die iv been playing for three year now and all these vid are helping me heaps it still amazes me why ppl are stiil giving ppl so much shit instead of encouragement .

[Bassistdan1]

Thanks man...........he's a young kid with nothing better to do than harass people. He'd probably be a decent bass player himself if he practiced instead of searching youtube for bass players to harass, he'd probably get better.

Anyway, again, I apologize for the outburst. This isn't the place for it. And you're right - I don't know why people can't just post their opinion in a respectful way. Keep rockin' man!

[BHMBASS]

Danny my man you rock dude. dont let these morons speak shit about you man. Ive seen what you are all about my friend. An I just saw basslifes video. He is in no shape to say anything about your playing. Keep rocking dude.

[Bassistdan1]

Thanks Bill........You're the best, bro.

[wiibasslife]

more like AMAZING D BAG SUCKING AT EVERYTHING

[Bassistdan1]

Wow, you must be one HELL of a bass player in order for you to refer to me as a "D Bag". You'd BETTER be because you're a shitty person.

[wiibasslife]

oooo brutal. you must think your pretty fuckin awesome to label your video as "amazing bass player" who the fuck do you think you are. harmonics havent been impressive for a number of years so i dont know what this video is supposed to be proving

[Bassistdan1]

(ROTFLMAO) Well, if your IQ matches your playing, then it's understood that you wouldn't read the thread only to find out that I didn't post this - My Keyboard player did and labeled it as such.

Either way, you obviously have some sort of problem with bassist that are, in fact, way better than you. Perhaps instead of surfing the net and getting jealous, you should practice that sloppy two-handed tapping technique that is just SOOOOOOOO new and cool and certainly never done before!

[arkalauz]

Umm...isnt amazing, just good

[dharmaseed]

Remember, you can riff as much as you want, but there ALWAYS has to be GROOVE.

[8ulls3y3]

[SpaceDude3600]

[Crnopac]

[milethdividida]

lindo, che lindo!

[plangentmusic]

Come to New York -- and meet thousands of other guys playing stuff like that in the music stores on 48th street.

[Bassistdan1]

Where do you think I LEARNED IT!?!??!

[Harmless71453]

Well, you have chops. Learn all this in all 12 keys, don't just slap in E. 900,000 other guys are doing that already. Take your gift and do something with it. Cast not thine pearls toward the swine of laziness.

[7kjo]

Jaco lives forever!

[ToRockistolive123]

HOLY SHIT DUDE THTS CRAZY

[JPPraterCO08]

Wow. I'll openly admit he's better than P-Nut and 311 is my fav.

[Bassistdan1]

Thanks again guys. I seriously appreciate the kind words. However, I don't presume to be "better" than anyone. I just play as I do. I'd really like to figure out a way to post more stuff since I'm really into slap-oriented playing. I gotta get my old keyboard player to come over and help me with this! Thanks again.

[JPPraterCO08]

I mean you make it sound like a piano or something. BaD ASS

[Bassistdan1]

Thanks much, man. You're the best!

[JPPraterCO08]

Nah you are, literally

[bbownz]

good job!!!:)

[Soccermaniac4248]

hello god my name is jesus please teach me

[izyou12]

If i saw you on the streets i would ask for your autograph and i would cherish it for the rest of my life.

[punkjazz28]

Lovely sound and technique man, reeeally nice playin'.

[Bassistdan1]

You guys are the best! Thanks very much for the positive feedback.

[JDS00]

Give me lessons and give me your bass:)

[Mazzage007]

That's what I call a damn good bassist, nice work man!

[ducasan]

very nice tecnique!

[rushrocks88]

Nice, very funky.

[Bassistdan1]

Thanks Rushrocks! Rush DOES rock! I appreciate the kind words!

[xWoWx23]

i dont even know what a good or bad bass player sounds like, but i think this guy is good.

[rockyracoon1968]

I can hear some nice riffs in there, but labeling your own video "AMAZING bass player riffing"? Groan...

[Bassistdan1]

Rocky, I'm not "stuck-up" - My KEYBOARD player set this up for me and posted it. Believe me when I tell you, I'm about as humble as anyone can be.

[rockyracoon1968]

Ah! Well I noticed that it was posted under your name, so I thought... Well, then I digress. And I do have to say that I enjoyed what you were doing with the harmonics. Fab job Bassistdan.

[Bassistdan1]

Thanks VERY much, man. Seriously! I'm a computer tech too! I just never knew how to post anything on youtube so I had my keys player set it up for me. Do you play?

[rockyracoon1968]

I haven't played out since my divorce. Was hunting for a bass because I wanted to get back into it again and punched in "Spector Bass" and got your vid. I love your stacatto use of harmonics and all around picking style. Has a cool Gary Willis vibe to it. Anyway, you're probably already familiar w/ this clip, but just in case I found a great V. Wooten clip you might dig: "Victor Wooten -Bass solo" -Peace and Light to you.

[HomelessKev]

Two words 'Mark' and 'King'!

[Bassistdan1]

Hey Homeless - I LOVE Mark King. One of my alltime faves!

[leavingentropia]

Jaco would be proud

[oooowwwwdddd]

Hey that was awesome but don't let it go to your ass. Jaco was very good also but he developed a large ass...... much too big for his body.

That's terrible I shouldn't say that.

I'm just joshin

[BHMBASS]

My extreme friend - you really are the badass MF. Cheers from the "Billsterooni".

[jimriz]

That cat can jam. You're a sick man, Mr. Ass-none!!
