Double Bass Plays like Edgar...

The cat was looking for some LEVEL SPOT in the dirt so that his bass wasn't too low or high!!!! Haven't you ever done that?
It seems alot of you have not only Sensitive powers, but Psychic powers as well. By looking and listening to one little morsel of the kids day, you can make all these criticisms and judgements. I bet one of you can tell us what color dress his grandmother wore on her wedding day.
Let's tar and feather the god damn copy-cat!!!!

My feeling is that folks might reconsider criticizing this young guy unless they can post a video clip of themselves playing as well or better, arco, outdoors, at age 19 or 20. Without that evidence, it sounds a little bit like, "sour grapes" to my ears...:hiding:

Yes. As a matter of fact, I'll be doing that on tomorrow's high society gig for 5hrs! A strolling bassist, I am.

So glad to read Paul's post. I miss the old days!

Yeah! The good old days when the fewer led the the few.:D

If you are going to light a match and toss it in here, at least tell us who you are talking about, that would be helpful.

The man has landed himself a full time gig in Chris Thile's band, Punch Brothers.

I love this band and I'm looking forward to hearing what he brings to them.
