funny thing is that the band just kept on going and even the camera person didnt even bother to continue taping the bassists reactions.

That's why you need brains, not straplocks.

Ducttape $3.50, straplocks $15.00

Face of this bassplayer as his bass is flying into the air behind him....PRICELESS.

Note to self...don't try this at home.
