classic case of a person thinking that if they play guitar, they're automatically a bassist too. when will they learn.

That first one gave me indigestion. Who are these people? What do they want? Does he think that people actually like it? My brain rejected it. The smile he has on his face is kinda creepy. Ignorance is bliss!

The second one made me laugh. I've seen those two guys before. Kev aka "boy wonder" needs to hit those drums like he means it. Don't get me wrong I like tasteful, volume-conscious drummers as much as the next guy but sheesh that is just annoying. In a few of the other videos, he and the bassist lose "one" a few times but they somehow managed to avoid it in this one.

I think the whole thing's a riot. The description is written as, "Jaco-esque Blues funky fender Jazz bass wamp up groove. Room concert." Yeah.
Why does it have to be a blues? Every time, it seems, if there's gotta be another generic jam, everyone reverts to the blues form. I can't believe they just kept going and going. It's insanity. Do they ever get bored? Oh yeah, the drummer does. Hey David, lay off the sixteenth's for a while buddy! Come up for some air! And, God forbid, should you ever label something "Jaco type" or "Jaco-esque" again, don't slap in it! I don't think they want to know what I really think...

That kid was 4 when those videos were shot. He'd be about 7 or 8 by now.

On the Crazy Train performance, the guitarist is making him sound worse than he actually is.

All I hear in the first video is annoying clicking. Somebody should find that guy and slap him.
