Pretty cool! |

| | I don't think, but I still am. | | Join Date: Oct 2006 Location: So. Cali | | | At the very beginning of the video when he would stretch out one hand and then the other, it didn't seem like he was making it back to his bass in time to play as many notes as he was. I heard a steady progression of notes. They just didn't seem to match up.
Later though, it becomes more clear that he's playing.

Is that Flea with his shirt on? I have never seen Flea with a shirt on (or playing a double bass for that matter)....so maybe it is he..... |

Bass player is probably coked up to the maximum though
