Just got back from the "Kooza" show, and it was fantastic as usual. I noticed the bassist was playing what appeared to be a Sadowsky NYC Modern 5, trans-cherry finish over flamed maple, with maple fretboard, and I thought to myself "I bet he's on TB, or at least someone on TB knows him and his story".  Immediately afterward, I thought "I'm such a damned nerd, scoping out the bass while there are acrobats onstage." The bassist also had a pretty sweet envelope filter during one of the acts, so I was hoping to find out which one he was using.
Any clues, or is it you?  |

It might have been that Darell Craig Harris, it did look kind of like him--but the face was less easy to categorize and identify than the bass.  |
