Title: GET BASSED with Mike Gordon
Post by: llobsterbass on August 07, 2009, 02:01:57 PM

Mike's promotional video for his solo tour this fall. He's slappin and poppin on his 4-string Epic in a few shots, though he plays a Modulus TBX 5 live. Worth viewing just for the weirdness, even if you're not a Phish fan. You'll enjoy his twisted response to the question, How do you come up with a bass line?

. . . twisted response to the question, How do you come up with a bass line?  
Twisted? I though everyone came up with bass lines that way.
 
Either that or they base(pun intended)their moves on the fingerboard similar to a possible move on a checkerboard.

Ha!  It's not every day you see a Joey Arkenstat (http://www.joeyarkenstat.com/# target=_blank) reference.

The video I am seeing there now is him slapping on his Modulus?

Look closely...the Modulus TBX he plays live is featured, but he's on an Alembic in one or two shots.
