ZED is the name of our show here in Tokyo at Disneyland

That was cool, although I'm not too into funk. What's a ZED? I didn't think it was anything besides me...

Well, thanks :00) I like all bassplayers, everyone has something to offer. Flea was the shnizel when he first arrived, and still sounds great :00)

are you serious
flea sucks man
this guy is more in the leagues of claypool and wooten
HOLY CRAP!!!! How in the world are you doin' that! Man, I've tried slapping w/hammer ons & all sorts of other stuff & I can't get anything that sounds remotely as good as that. Is there a particular scale you like to play, or is it anything that comes to mind?

I try not to think in terms of I am going to play this or that scale usually, I try to find things that sound interesting. Scale wise of course learning a simple major scale has most things that are building blocks for everything else.
Simple two octave blues scale is very useful (flat 3rd, flat 5) modes are of course useful, Dorian and Mixolydian I find very good to have in your vocabulary among other.
Have a great day!!
