I love this bassline, but it's got NOTHING on the tasty moves.
It's best at :50
I'm loving it. |

|  | On the TB leaderboard for low talent/gear ratios! | | Join Date: Jun 2000 Location: NJ | | | All I could think of when I saw the thread title was a clip that someone posted here a while ago. The bassist played a Rickenbacker and was shuffling, duck walking, etc. all over the stage. And if I remember correctly, it was live, so he was actually playing while he was doing all that.
I tried searching for it, but I don't know the name of the bassist, the band he played in or anything like that so I finally gave up. If anyone knows the clip I'm talking about, please post the link to it. It was phenomenal.

Israeli version of Madness' Night Boat To Cairo. This one is called Night Train To Cairo. They always dance like that. I must learn how to do that. XD

I couldn't find it either. |
