This is a different guy. I think he was playing a Warwick (even though the guy you are talkin about wound up endorsing Warwicks too). But this guy was nice.

I kept looking trying to catch a glimpse of the bass he was playing and I noticed he was a short dude with curly hair and definitely looked young but damn, he had total command of his axe. I couldn't tell what bass he was playing though. I was watching another band [country or alternative, can't recall] and this big country lookin' dude is playing a six string boutique bass with a 'gasp' pick!! OMG, that is so wrong!!  |

Usually on those telecasts, you can barely hear the bass! It was a Warwick bass and he was playing through a Warwick amp (well, cabinet at least). |

Anyway Alica Keys bassist, was young short, blondish dyed hair and again his tone was killer |

He's usually dressed pretty sharp. Does Keith play with a pick? I've never seen him play with one. I think it was Gretchen Wilson's band that I'm thinking of. Or the Uncle Kracker segment.

That said I've seen keith play w this fingers, thumb, pick, the works. Don't know if it was him, but the guy had a greattone and a command of that tic-tac sound |
