hello TB. I am quitting bass

I just thought I should let you know. I wanted to thank you for all your guidance, but I saw this video and I realized I can never top the musicality this man reaches with his own two hands. therefore, i'm going to put an end to studying music. you must see for yourself.

Bah. I'm guessing you get more action playing bass. Think of how many nights this guy sat at home alone, honing his "craft".

Then again... with hands like that, he probably don't need chicks.

I saw him on Jimmy Kimmel a couple years ago. My favorite is Bohemian Rhapsody.

Man, this guy has quite a repertoire. His version of Classical Gas is inspired! Great link.

I don't think the sound is coming from his hands. I think he's sitting on the mike.

The hand fart guy again! I don't understand this guy. Why would someone who obviously has talent sit around learning to do this crap?

I own Blazing Saddles on VHS and DVD. One of my all-time favorites. I can't play April In Paris or I Get A Kick Out Of You without cracking up.
