Best footwork by a bassist.

Spiral Staircase- I Love You More Today Than Yesterday


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

I'm loving it.

I woke my roommate up laughing as hard as I did. I asked him if I danced like that while playing would he still be my friend... he said no =/

LOL

I bet he can play two sets of Taurus pedals simultaneously while playing the bass!

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.

[BrandonBass]

[yrock]

That was very nice. I try to emulate Claypools high stepping hillbilly walk, it is harder than it looks. LOL

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 remember the video you are talking about. It was one of those cheesy, yet amazing displays of talent. I couldn't find it either.

i hope i'd see a video of it again... i forgot the song or the artist
