| | | | Brilliant Bassist, no doubt, but I sometimes find his sound to be a little thin.
His playing is mind blowing though, no doubt

He invited himself to sit with my girlfriend and I at a Wooten concert, and was every bit as excited as I was to see the band. He turned to us on more than one occasion with a HUGE smile and shouted things like "wow, did you see that?!"
One negative I must comment on, though, is that whatever brand of deodorant he was using at the time wasn't really working for him.

To the comment about his thin sound... I blame it on the Modulus. I believe he's playing Fodera's now, so give it another shot when he rolls through your town. |

But his playing is at a level high above most others. LOVE it! |
