PreSonus NAMM 09- Victor Wooten, Steve Bailey & David "Fingers" Haynes - 2

[warwickkid32]

I just realized they were playing the wayne shorter tune "footprints" one of my favorites to jam on

[renzoalfredo0310]

Crazy! , Locos!

[MrIykman]

i love victor wooten.

[milkmonster99]

ive never seen anyone that good at one of those drum machines, jesus...

[presonusaudio]

@milkmonster99 David "Fingers" Haynes. He's crazy good!

[taradare1]

could anyone tell me the name of the drum thingy they're using

[halftongorilla]

@taradare1 its a Korg nanopad, which is just a controller. I own one and several others like it. In my opinion, the M-Audio Triggerfinger is the best.

[omly85]

this is really really awesome!..as much as i love danger man this haynes character needs to be in the rhythm seat in the flecktones...he grooves & danger man does not..he is at the same level of skill as wooten etc..danger man is not...& tell me has anyone seen or heard danger man solo like haynes??..it's time to evolve flecktones!.

[2decades2late]

@omly85 I think you mean Future Man?

[omly85]

@2decades2late ..oh! crap!..yes your right,my mistake.Thank you for the correcting my mistake:).

[tobto1]

simply perfect!

[pimpleburger]

Speachless... can't ... get words out.... whoaz! David "Fingers" Haynes brilliant!!!

[alencore]

goodbye acoustic drum set...LoL!

[toofpick151]

Dave is the man! Oh yeah, and for those wondering, he can do the same on a REAL set. Dont get it twisted.

[ZombieRobotBaby]

This Is just Pure Skill. Damn!!!

[mrzipdisk]

omg

[Kadavernazion]

Shock when the camera switched over and I realized it was a drum pad.

[osfa73]

@Kadavernazion Hahaha yeh i totally forgot it was... then I was like im diging that drum beat whos the drummer :P Then I remembered..

[SantiagoGT15]

the guy in the back seems unimpressed... I guess he didn't realize who was playing just next to him

[Xioaxioa10]

@SantiagoGT15 he did get impressed. watch as fingers solos the guy in the back begins to smile look around and smile more. just watch because even he realized that was some intense drums......

[Xioaxioa10]

i like how victor broke out of the standard of the song and started slapping like a crazy person. it was so unique to the rest of the song.

[andreking84]

i think steve is a porn star!lol

[strzempa]

Steve's solo <3

[Kingkeeta]

fingers is like ima take a scotch on the rocks after this show at 8:42

[RebornThroughHate]

A couple observations:

1- I think Steve's technique has really improved over the last several years. He's become quiet an excellent player.

2- Vic's slapping almost ruined an otherwise beautiful piece. Just sounded out of place here.

[nurikara]

haha nice jean pierre insertion at 2;50ish, never realized it b4.

[Childinfaith]

I hate to know 4 deaf people clicked on this video and were sad they couldn't hear it.

[MattGeogheganMusic]

that drum pad really sounds very good, maybe not as authentic as a real kit, but for the price, as well as the versatility and ease of transportaton, it's amazing!

[Xioaxioa10]

lol steve bailey has that look of "does this sound good" when he makes that focused face lol!!!!!

[metifu]

Haynes fingers drum solo, will always sound better than my solo with both hand.

[metifu]

Haynes fingers solo, sounds better than my solo with both hand.

[Xioaxioa10]

i think we can all agree vic is insane at 3:24 now that is some slapping

[ianidinuse]

CRAZY ASS DRUM SOLO.

[grigor27]

What's this shit pad instead of real drums??? Invite Vinnie Colaiuta and appreciate real mastery not a machine with drum programmes on it!!!

[TalonTSI95]

@grigor27 Don't be so pretentious. David Haynes is a real drummer. You think you can play a drum pad like that without knowing actual drum theory? They're playing at a namm show to display the newest instruments on the market... get over it.

[TimJMorrison]

@TalonTSI95

Not that it really matter, but he does actually have chops on "real" drums too :-)

[grigor27]

@TalonTSI95 i'm not pretentious; i just prefer genuine original instruments

[skibbajehn]

siiiiiick

[chowderhead5000]

i thought victor was gonna brake a string during his solo, lol

[chazyt]

aaaaaaaaaahhh!!!!! heeey!!! WOW! They are amazing!!!

[TBITB]

watching them have fun makes me enjoy watching them. they're so loose up there.

[Lee222222]

@TBITB yeah...I like that too ! they are so themselves...^^

[kingofthestoneage5]

Wow David is tearin it up... this dude is better with his drumpads than some the drummers I've seen on kits hahahahaha

[jonathandila]

OMG IM OVER HERE SCREEAAMING AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAHAHAHAA­AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH THESE GUYS ARE ALIENS LOL OMG THIS WAS NOT NORMAL WHY WHY ...... THAT WAS NICE

[ernestx19]

[technologyms]

What is David "Fingers" Haynes playing? Is that like a mpc?

[TheClassicNerd]

@technologyms

[andreking84]

steve looks like a porn star ona bass!lol

[TCELL24]

[reconjack7]

Victor is the Micheal Jordan, the Cristian Ronaldo, the Nolan Ryan of BASS, There will never be another Victor Wooten

[clarinet343]

[VictorBacau]

[AriHP]

Maitrise absolue de l'harmonie et du tempo... RESPECT !!!!

[roxymaddog]

[DaionBass]

David "Fingers" Haynes....hmm....I think I have a new favorite drummer. lol

That was fun, and impressive.

[SP2333]

what gear is the drummer using?

[meenpiano]

@SP2333 Korg nanopad

[Raiyne123]

Crazy ass drum solo, totally lost me in the middle of it haha.

[studiomanuel]

Nice!!!

[xxtwixx]

its very good how they play, but it sounds not very amazing...thats my opinion.

[JEVentrillon]

not very impressive? obviously you dont know how hard it is to play the way they do, if you did you would be drooling over this video

[Fsdrak]

Steve's neck is really short when he's focused...

[Carbamazepina1]

Steve sucks

[BassRorro]

You Sucks, ignorant

[suhn101]

all i have to say is amazing victor and steve are probly the best to pair in a free jam

[Lee222222]

God Please help us play like that some day !

[essna]

@Lee222222 you cant hold no groove if you aint got no pocket...

God aint gonna build it for you, you gotta work it out man...

[Lee222222]

@essna You are right dude ! ^^ we need to work hard...thanks !

[womanlybassplayer]

@Lee222222 Amen!

[Romans10Verse9]

6:30!!! FOOTPRINTS!!! WOO!!!

[pb0o6]

hes a beast on that drum machine. what is that thing called anyway?

[pixulonko]

korg nanopad

[1966bassplayer]

fretless bass with bad tone,intonation and phrasing.

[delaiMo]

i agree

[pizzicato16]

I agree. I am not a fan of Steve Bailey. As far as the fretless I don't think there is a player alive better than Michael Manring.

[davidcutlerbass]

i love the way the sound engineer in the corner looks more and more overjoyed every time you see him, awesome stuff!!

[Nekronaut321]

Steves playing is so distinctive. love it.

[optic192]

that other guy is playing the smallest drumset ive ever seen! its amazing how he must hold the sticks

[zacangermusic]

You should check out his channel, he's amazing on a trap set as well.

[jsoqeta]

WOW.... Victor, Steve & "Fingers" ..... coudlnt ask for more.... thanks for posting....!!

[matalmike]

Why the reverb!? Bass and reverb don't mix!! Yeah and I don't like Steve's playing either. I don't have his skills, but he can't play those hamonics without the verb.

[RLHubner]

Funny.

Victor said himself that he can't do what Steve does.

[joelkeaton]

you suck

[UpsideDown727]

can you do what he does?

[oneeyedwilly25]

One problem most musicians seem to have is they think that is they say something sucks people will think they know what they are talking about.

[1966bassplayer]

Okay, sucks is a strong word but everything else I said I stand by.

[illyck]

This video is unbelievable. Victor and Steve are A class musicians, but the "drummer" is out of control. Very Impressive! :-)))

[musicmaestro88]

Thanx for sitting in for me and playing this for me Vic - I couldn't make it. And Vic, if u need more tips on how to play call me and I will help u out some more - u'll be good one day Vic, just keep trying. :)

[alexsullivanbanjos]

shut up!! stupid wannabe

[demented4th]

Haha somebody steal your sense of humour?

[zunnyboy]

INCREIBLE!!!!!!! these guys are amazing!!!!! Victor's slapping is great!!!!!

[kokid03]

Not incredible

PHENOMENAL

[henniebogan1]

this sounds like a fast grove of the thrill is gone at some parts

[komardeveloper]

Обосрешься :-D

[bluv25]

that was so good it was just stoopid!!

[happyslappysoong]

MEGA tight groove from all players.

[ssab420]

I play like Victor wooten in my dreams...then i wake up.

[CartmanMetalHead]

YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH­HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH helll yeahhh que mierda tan sabrosa chico

[keyballa]

DAMN!!! OMG this was so freakin TIGHT! victor wooten and steve bailey excellent job guys! dude on the drums too! great job!

[melb0n]

For the drum, I think he is using KORG NANOPAD USB MIDI DRUM PAD. check it out.

[20AceofBass11]

I love how Steve Bailey has his tongue out and is concentrating, while Victor is just kinda jammin.

[jracerock69]

A new word needs to be enacted for this spectacle of Stupniousnessim & That Word Is RIDONKULOUS-Joey[Flock Of Schmiegels] how much cooler can they get w/o freezing???

[FuzzyHaskins]

what the hell is the thing the drummer is playing called? i need one.

[Tandunic]

Outstanding

[persini]

insane drum solo

[Zymm]

I mean ..."the hole place"...

[Zymm]

WOW, shit, so many amazingless (if this word even exist :P), the hole play should just blow away, that is like a freakin bomb of greatness, damn 30 stars

[28bass]

yeaahh!! man 2:45 excelent solo

[bassquake1986]

also...gotta give kudos to steve bailey's ever-flawless use of chords!

[bassquake1986]

I love vic's expression in reaction to steve at 0:44

all very talented players who know what music is all about

[nathanbossoh]

that is way too good.

victor wooten steve baily. and haynes.

gosh dat is too much greatness.

[oscarballestas]

a steve le hace falta el feeling latino.. eso se lleva en la sangre.. a victor y al otro man les sale natural porque ellos son negros... ahi lo que hay es puro sabor papa

[ismabass1]

Victor wwooten, el bajista màs completo de la historia!!

saludos desde Uruguay..

Ismael Viera.

[nicktheninja222]

Meanwhile, Dave is thinking, "Darn, I feel so left out, I'm the only one without a bass..."

[Albigatnz]

its actually awesome to see wooten go so nuts... Its like he is so expressive and honest like a truth serum drunk persin...

[rcatchpo]

Best thing I've heard in ages and ages and ages and ages ages and ages ages and ages ages and ages ages and ages ages and ages ages and ages ages and ages ages and ages ages and ages ages and ages ages and ages ages and ages ages and ages ages and ages ages and ages ....

[stratousbass]

Oh My God.

The Finger Drum guy is extremely talented.

Victor Wooten and Steve Bailey are both, of course, the greatest in the universe.

wow.

[trubith]

I believe it's actually a korg nano pad, for those of you who were wondering.

[korntwist1]

great trio =)

[apukun]

que duo tan bueno.... bailey y wooten.... sigan asi Maestros de maestros full apoyo desde valencia venezuela.....

[riddickbass989]

<3  v wooten

[bigfatdynamo32]

they actualy are playing footprints... just there own style

[basslowe]

Steve Bailey has to be as mentally ill as Victor and Jaco. Forgive the sacasm. These guys make you want to quit playing the bass. Awesome stuff.

[mrbob944]

Oh damn. That is soo sick. At about 6:45 and after Vic starts playing the melody to Footprints by Miles Davis. Oh man I loved laying that song in jazz band. It's so sick when whoever is soloing starts sticking in melodies from different songs. But great jam!

[MasterMayheim]

OMG...fucking AWESOME!!

[TheBeatSmith]

what kind of controller is David is playin on....it's not his usual drum machine......?????????

[ruzzipezzore]

I think is a mandala pad...

[ruzzipezzore]

I think is a mandala pad

[TheBeatSmith]

No...It's not a mandala pad....

[ettuskit2]

bailey is such a bass badass

[trump3t]

lol I love the guy rockin' out on the finger drums!

[CJtheCynic]

He's pretty cool. He plays drums (the real ones) as well and is pretty damn good.

[darkness2213]

ha... i watched this live... =D it was amazing.... NAMM 2009!!

[och70]

Shouldn't it be illegal to have THAT much talent on stage at once? Daaaammmnnn.

[gtrtuben]

wow.... they look autistic

[leannkookie]

The masters of low end done it again. :-)

[kabustard]

Bet Haynes never plays football or basketball.
