Boonok Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 This clip might make you want to give up and put your upright on craiglist. But i hope it will inspire you. enjoy [video:youtube] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cthulhu Fhtagn Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Nope. Not ready to sell mine. Just a reminder of how good I will never be, though. Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommi Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 His tone is just amazing. There's lots of Renaud Garcia-Fons on Spotify also: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b5pilot Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Wow, very nice. I don't play a URB but that was very cool. Lydian mode? The only mode I know has the words "pie ala" in front of it. http://www.myspace.com/theeldoradosband Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yourlord Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Nope, but it just reinforces my desire to get an URB. Feel free to visit my band's site Delusional Mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danzilla Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 What a hack... I mean, he makes me look like a total hack. Ok, so I am a total hack. Great stuff- wish I had an upright to even make the attempt of coming close to that.

tnb Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 You're in Portland? You've probably got 5 guys in your neighborhood that can be that guy. I'm not harshing on you or the guy in the video, but the watermark for upright players seems to get higher every week. That having been said, we as electric players need to tighten our game. Make it more about music and less about flash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenLoy Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 I'd love to see another thundertour with this guy, Stanley Clarke and Edgar Meyer all rockin' the string bass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not harshing on you or the guy in the video, but the watermark for upright players seems to get higher every week. Are you trying to say that upright players like Renaud Garcia Fons are a dime a dozen? I assure you that there is no one even worthy of shining his bass in my neighborhood.

EddiePlaysBass Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 Funny, I was listening to the clip the other day, totally raving about what I was hearing (and seeing) and my mom went "It's a bit dull, Dave." To each their own Oh, I wish I actually HAD my (electric) upright so I could want to sell it "I'm a work in progress."

davio Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 I'd love to see another thundertour with this guy, Stanley Clarke and Edgar Meyer all rockin' the string bass. John Patitucci or Gary Karr rather than Stanley, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad Thorne Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Well, he's terrific. But personally I've never had the desire to play URB so it's not a problem for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
