Expert village is an absolute joke. I have no idea how they find these teachers, and how they can call them experts.

This one is funny, it's about breaking in fresh strings. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tIHTMFFKB2c

I like, at about the :50 mark how he finishes big: Ab-A-Bb, Ab-A-Bb, Ab-A-Bb.......then down an octave to........B......

Now THAT's jazz.........

Wasn't there another expert village thread? What happened to it?

Part of being a musician is hustling gigs. These guys are out there doing it. Regardless of there teaching methods, there is something to be said about getting gigs...

Hmm - I may be wrong, but I have a funny feeling that if they were getting swamped with calls for gigs and real students, they wouldn't have time to waste making lousy web videos.

IMO, YMMV, BYOB, etc
