Don't agree with his philosophies of life at all, but still very interesting to hear what he has to say.

"My favorite thing to do is just play, I guess, what you might call 'normal' bass lines," Wooten says. "Because bass by its nature is a supportive instrument; our goal is to lay down a bass line, you might say, that other people can stand upon and groove on."
Sig'd!

Just out of curiosity;what is it you don't agree with? Vic get's a little new ageist at time's but I feel his philosophies are very positive

It was a very listenable interview. He expresses himself well.

I have been a Vic fan since the Flecktones UFOTOFU.
I have seen him in concert with the Flecktones
and his band at least 10 times. He is an amazing
bass player and person.
Thanks for posting the link!
