with that run starting at about :20 do you think his right or left hand gets tired first?

this is definitely My favorite Manring tune.. he doesn't seem to play this one that much though...

The camera is about 2 feet from my right ear. What an incredible day. I wish I could actually remember everything that he did. It was one jaw dropper after another. I left Bran's House in a stupor.

I've seen a few vids on YT where just a solo bassist plays for a few people. What's the story here? Friends of the artist?

Usually at a house concert, one of the members of the audience (usually the homeowner) knows the artist or friend of a friend. In this case, while Michael and I had met several times, it was my friendship and prior concerts with Trip Wamsley and Steve Lawson that helped land the show. Michael had just finished a tour with John Gorka in my town and I got him to do a Sunday afternoon show and take a later flight. He let his fan mailing list know of the show and we were packed like sardines!

He is a great person in every regard.

I've been messing around with bass for a couple years, but am still a noob to the bass world. This is the first I've really heard of Michael Manring.

I'm blown away, to say the least.
