    you won't be dissapointed. my advice: flecktones tour bus will be parked somewhere nearby, wait after the show by it or they sometimes stay in the theatres afterwards and sign shit and meet people

    Ok, I dropped in to read this thread and seem to have gotten lost in it. What's the name of the bassist you're referring to here?

    If I have to pick between Les Claypool of Primus or Flea of The Red Hot Chili Peppers, I'd pick Flea. Beyond them, I really have no idea who plays bass for whom; unless you count Nirvana... Chris Novoselic (or however you spell it) but he isn't my favorite.

    Oh yes, I'll have a go. In no particular order.....
    • Carol Kay
    • Phil Lesh
    • Jack Casady
    • John Paul Jones
    All are old skool but so totally right. They all have a unique tone and melodic style, without being showoffs.
    And if anyone is not familiar with Casady, check this track out:
