@AlwaysGettingHopOns That must have been awesome. I play many instruments, bass being my forte, and I've always regarded this bass line as being one of the funkiest, movingest, jumpingest down right badass basslines ever!! Horn section is so tight. The only one besides BS&T and AWB is a band cal...

@kingofthestoneage5 In my rock touring days I used Sunn Model T with 2 Sunn 215s cabs usually split on either side of the drum rise. I love the lowend of 15s, and I'd just use 1 in a small venue. I also had an Acoustic 371 for a while with a single 18 rev fold that was unbelievable. I play at ho...

Apparently there are some negative comments about this video. I'm not going to humor the posters by reading them. Some are truly jealous, others just want to try and stir up crap and piss people off, others are just...well...idiots. Santana could save a bunch o money and hire this kid, at this ag...

@17drums Your "Stairway" comment mad me laugh! You're right though. I had a limited number of friends that liked "weird shit" as they called it. Yes, King Crimson, ELP, Beck, Zappa, Weather Report, RTF, Mahavishnu. Don't get me wrong, I listened to and played Mowtown, Rock, Blues and even some go...

Not necessarily looking for a copy I was talking to someone about ELP the other day and mentioned T-Rat Of course they'd never heard of them not many people have I decided to see what I could find on YT I have a record store near called Forever Young If anyone has a copy of T-Rat Doub Dimp they ...

One of the best basslines any any song ever. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think it's Alfonzo Johnson. It's been awhile since I looked at the liner notes. I also think this was Al's 1st solo album. Killer tunes. Elegant Gypsy wasn't bad but I believe Midnite Sun was better.

@namtil You're probably close. I was thinking 77-78. I saw them at about the same time at the Agora Ballroom in Dallas. I think the tickets were around $15 maybe less. 1st show was so great we stayed for the 2nd. I'm not sure why we weren't asked to leave. Anyway, 2nd show was better. They were r...

@KTtraintowin 1 mo story. E was a huge part of our team but we were very talented. Lynn King our FB/MLB was a brute too. Earl got put out of a game after a late sideline hit+Lynn went on to run for 150yds+score 2 TDs A leg injury kept him from pro-ball. Ron Lee was our TE/DE, All-America at Baylo...

U can keep da hooch but i'll takes about a wheelbar full o cobbler.....well maybe justa lil' bit o hooch to wash down da cobblers....and for medisnal purposes only....of course

I'm ain't fo sho but this looks like da same plot that I gots a picture somewheres of pop on a small tractor (well, he made it look small) and your 1st born and I think we wuz pickin' purple-hulls. I just remember lots and LOTS of peas!! Don't remember the 'maters tho I probly et a few.

BTW i wo...

@Vintagekieran 5strings are nice but this tech is harder because the strings are closer together and when thumbing the E it's easy to hit the B by mistake

If you have skinny fingers it's much easier. I play Jazz and Pbass 4 Ibanez 5, G&L 5 and MusicMan5 also good 5 basses. Long scale basses sou...

I just think it's awesome that someone would take the time out of their obviously hectic touring, recording and PR sessions to give folks like us an inside view of their sounds and techniques.

He is one of the best. He doesn't shred like Yngvie or pent like Eddie but he doesn't have to.

Many time...

This should be me.Hey Guy if you ever get tired of playing with Floyd let me know. I can play bass, and acoustic and electric guitars on most all Floyd material and sing lead and backing vocals as well. So there!! Damn you Guy Damn you!!! Just kidding, I'm just jealous.

The perfect 5th would be a soon to be opened bottle of 21 yr old single malt Scotch....

Badoom doomdoom da DA da doomdoomdoom da DA da doomdoomdoom da DA da do etc

That be the song Green Onions by Booker T+The MGs.

@Camohat100 I figured you would but sure their are others who would think I was trashing the lady I'm not I love the sound of her guitar and what she's playing is SO full of heart and soul I really wish it were a longer video Pray that enough people see her struggles+plight and are more than...

@entwistle4ever I'm not sure what idiot your are replying to but someone actually said Townsend can't write? What a moron. The Who is undoubtedly one of the best assemblage of musicians ever. Right up there with The Beatles Floyd Yes Rush

Cream etc etc And Townsend is a freakin genius. I mean...
