This kid is a prodigy!

[john turner]

somebody said that i was well on my way to be the next cliff williams.

i smacked him.

i have frequently been told that I'll never get anywhere with my bass playing. In most cases I agreed. I sometimes get compared to sucky bassist, but only by those who acknowledge that they suck.

People keep saying that I could be the next 'Curly'. Check him out in "Disorder in the Court".

 

[Hategear]

I thought I was the next Flea? Or wait, maybe I have fleas -- I can't remember right now.

Maybe by saying this guy is the next Flea, he meant that he will be the next guy to become famous by playing bass while wearing a gym sock?

I feel sorry for you.

 

[barroso]

who's this flea? he has the same name of my green apple flavoured shampoo!

 

[Angus]

What do you want to bet he comes around and posts a song full of out of time, unmusical SLAPPING?

He must be just GREAT if he's the next FLEA! Doesn't get any better than that...

 

[bassistjedi]

Maybe if I work on my vocal skills a little, I could be the next.........Fred Durst!!


Now where did I put my red ballcap?

 

[SpankBass]

Ya well I brought this thread on myself.

This kid is good. I don't think most 14 year olds (or anyone really) that have been playing for under 2 years can play like him. Imagine 10 years from now.

DISCLAMER: This is all strictly IMO

 

[purple_haze]

LMAO @ Deynn.

And I agree 100% with *Tones*.

 

[leomilani]

HOLY ****!!!!!!! But I highly doubt you can match the great drum, er, bass skills of FiEldY.

i'm 14 and i've been told that i'm the reincarnation of cliff burton and ironically he died the same year i was born....anyway. i've been playing for almost a year next month and i'm not bragging when i say this but if someone told me i was the next flea i would be forced to hit them upside the head with the largest and heaviest object in the immediate area.

 

[SpankBass]

Whats everyone got against flea? Please just refer me to a past flame war so we don't start another.

 

[John Davis]

Hey Spank, what city? I think I might know who your talking about.

Garden Grove, CA. I doubt you know him though, but if you do, a distinct feature about him is a slightly deformed left eye.

He died the same year you were born? Must suck to not be born yet...

I was in mars b,ham store the other day and was trying out a plum NS CRFM and was oblivious to the fact anyone was watching me and was not trying to impress anybody and when I handed the bass back to the sales guy I heard this kid about 15 telling his buddy "thats what I call the intimidation factor" refering to me giving the bass back to the sales guy because I heard him "slap" a string,I started to get the bass back and plug it in and show jr. a thing or two,then I thought,naw let him look good to his bud cause that's all the glory he gets,it was enough knowing I am his daddy.
