    In case someone didn’t notice, the basist only has one hand.

    As we say down here in Austin: whyao-uhhhhh…. inspired, truly. I remember many years ago seeing Weather Report play Exit/In in Nashville when Jaco was still just teetering on the brink of schizo-ism. The bass tonight reminded me of that night so long ago, although candidly I was a bit impared and it was a small room and the music was so loud my ears bled from several days …

    Still, I have fond memories! Thanks for recharging them.

    P.S. Amanda, those close-ups were downright pro-vo-co-ta-ting…

  14. Y’all might be getting tired of my constant adoration, but if you keep putting up stuff like this it’s the price you’ll have to pay. At the risk of repeating myself, and paraphrasing others, you guys doth rock!

  15. An absolutely inspirational choice. The bassist kicked ass and the editing was sensational. Keep up the good work. I couldn’t get through the day nearly so well without you both.

  17. RG- The bass player was pretty good considering his style, but comparing him to Jaco Pastorius is a bit much. Like Hendrix, Jaco took the world of bass playing into another dimension. And speaking of Hendrix I once saw Jaco play “Purple Haze” on his bass…for kicks….the man was an an incredible showman as well.

    Here’s to Jaco & Hendrix!

    I don’t know who the bass player in this is, but he should get togeher with jazz guitarist John Scofield and the three of them would kick some serious ass.

    I’ve been in kzoo for ten years now and I’ve seen Bill play down at Club Soda quite a few times. He’s a great musician and He always rocks out. Thanks for showing some great Kalamazoo music in my favorite podcast.

    the product looks very cool, and having Amanda pose with it is a surefire way to sell a bundle right quick. Wonder if I could still get one before Christmas?

    So, is it her, or am i going loony?

  27. GOD

    Not my taste in music, but I hope if I ever lose a digit, hand or appendage I don’t give up music — highly inspirational (though the audio/video was outta sync… ahem).

    A toast to the man with one hand — may you one day play an open string.

    Needless to say, you rock.

  28. I’ve been watching for a while, and we seem to be catching y’all in a real growth spurt where the material is fresh and eclectic. Soon though, it will get campy, then infrrequent, then…..spinning out of orbit. Love it while it lasts!
