I decided to share some of my experience and wisdom with other bassists, so I made a bass instructional video demonstrating some of my favorite advanced techniques. It's probably exactly what you'd expect from me. Hope you learn a lot from it.

They're advanced techniques for bassists who need to compete for attention with attractive female singers who have flowers glued to their faces.

My biggest tricks are just playing over the top of the fretboard on boring songs, and beating the ever lovin crap out of the body to make the strings rattle.
The bottle opener mounted to the back of my bass makes for some good shtick at the right gig........

It works like a champ!

It's actually quite handy at band practice. (There's always ber at band practice.)

That could draw attention for sure! |

| | | nice video! now you just need to put a boot up the butts of your bandmates to get them to move around a little.
at that point, you could move up to the next level:
