I dunno...I don't think I've ever seen faster bass wankering. towards the end it gets pretty quick. Show me better and or faster if you have it. http://youtube.com/watch?v=XBS8rLxQHdw |

I've watched his other stuff, and almost none of it could ever be played in a live situation with a band... for money at least. Some cats may like the bass solo stuff, but I prefer to lay back and groove with the band. Very few have ever made a living on this type of playing. As long as he's enjoying himself though, that's all that matters.

No. didi I think it was the best recording in the world? No. Just thought he was pretty darned fast at a few points...that's all. Take it for what I put it up for....the guy is fast. that's all I said. |

I could definitely never do that and I have nothing but respect for anyone who can but that kind of playing hurts my brain after about 30 seconds or so. Don't get me wrong I wish I could play that fast sometimes. Both of those videos would have been more enjoyable for me with some tempo changes and not just a couple of minutes of look what I can do. Still cool to watch those guys for a little bit though. |
