But if you have never seen the Flecktones, by all means go to that (is it Flecktones or just a Bela/Vic duo)?
(just checked the website and it is a Flecktones show) |

i have to admit. i'd much rather see TOP than the Flecktones, as a band- i can only take so much jazz banjo... and i wish Futureman played a real kit sometimes... but I have seen TOP the last 3 times they were here. They were BUMPIN!
I have never seen Vic live... though Imet him once-
I wish i could have caught Vic with Mike Stern and Dennis Chambers! |

You guys are lucky I'm hoping Vic would come over to New Zealand
But if I had a choice I'd see Vic |

| | | | E-Z...I've seen Vic about 2 dozen times & have never seen Rocco w/ TOP.

...Rudy, IMO, blew them all away!

|  | C'mon man! | | Join Date: Dec 1999 Location: Hawaii | | I've seen both many times.....Last year I saw TOP, and their singer was awesome! I can't remember his name but the best singer they ever had, tore the roof off! Of course Rocco & David Garibaldi where awesome too. But to answer your question.....if you have never seen Victor.....you have go see Victor, he is a force of nature Futureman plays more real kit these days, last time I saw him, he had a real kit along with his synthaxe.......it made a HUGE difference

| | | | I would like to see both. But I doubt that they will come to Iceland..
Anyway, I think I would choose Victor. But I'm not sure, because TOP is an awesome band. |

I can always catch Vic some other time with a fellow bass freak-
it's not for girls... 
just kidding!  |
