One too many 8x10s??

The 9 or so white cabs you can see are also complimented by an innumerable number of black cabs you can start to make out when the lights come up e.g. at the end of the video.

I confess I didn't make it to the end of the video...

I didn't realize I could've started gigging with that level of talent 25 years ago. If I'd known that, I would have stopped wood shedding as soon as I had 3 notes down.

Awful , awful, awful. Somebody is overcompensating.

Yeah, except it's a girl.
I don't get it. Is there actually an audience for this?

-Said every jazz musician the night the beatles aired.

The simple answer to your question is yes, yes there is.

Lol, right, because this is exactly the same situation. :-D

I like how they went through the trouble of setting up all those cabinets, and then having a light show consisting of someone turning on a lamp.

Another video, better quality....


This one makes me laugh because someone had to figure out which speakers to mic. Apparently folks dig the music. Which goes with my belief that regardless how good or bad a band is, there's a target audience somewhere on this planet. By the way, no need for bass in this band. Live it!

Who's more likely to be who in this situation?

Looks like they got a feature on NPR and are reliably drawing a sizable crowd. How's your band doing?

Not trying to be inflammatory, just pointing out facts.

How do you know that she's not as good as Steve Vai and is choosing to play just "3 notes"? Funny how we all praise playing a few notes or "it's the notes you don't play that matter", but that only applies when when its in our favor. Jamerson keeps it simple he's the best though...

Whatever works...just because you don't like it doesn't make it bad.

I rather enjoyed that. I love the huge bass drum and wall of speakers!

I would definitely go to the show... with earplugs.

That's generally good advice when going to any doom show...

Hi,

It's got a good beat. You can dance to it. I'll give it an "87".


Thank you for your indulgence,

BassCliff

I have also heard it, and I prefer "If you can't dazzle 'em with brilliance, crush 'em with your weight." It seems appropriate maybe. That camera mic' was completely overwhelmed, which always does a disservice to those who may want to hear something different then their usual fare.

Generally, when people can play as well as Steve Vai, they do it Entirely possible she can, but I don't see it. Still, that doesn't mean I don't like her. She has a unique style. It's all good...not a fan but I'm supportive of a husband and wife out there getting things done.

Aren't you the one who said flame away? ;P 3 notes can be quite good. I just don't dig 7 minutes of the same 3 notes without variation.

Some people thought Picasso couldn't paint... But he could be technical if he wanted to.

Just sayin'...

Good example of how music and entertainment come in all forms ... this is not my cup of tea. I still enjoyed watching the video though, gave me a chance to feel aloof and holier than those who do like it.

 

[lowphatbass]

So I'm guessing if you were to mic the drums it would only make the bass louder?
