Talking Bass solo in New Kids on the Block video

Sign in to disble this ad
Hahaha, check out 2:28 in this video:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zkXrAuR951c

David Dyson played with New Kids on the Block for some of their tours. I guess this was his time to shine...

(Seriously, I was only watching this because I had been checking out some Kansas and this was uploaded by the same user, sonybmg... Please don't judge me... though if anyone wants to hire me to play in a NKOTB tribute band, I _might_ say yes.)

I think I most appreciated that he only faces the audience for one measure, then has to turn around and get the heck out of the way. Although it was kind of Donnie to explain to the audience that that was in fact a "bass."

The "bass solo" in this song starts about 2:28... If you wanna avoid having to actually sit through the painful part... the rest of the song...
