Title: Anybody on YouTube?
Post by: darkstar01 on June 04, 2007, 05:32:24 PM

I got bored the other day and posted this video of me playing on YouTube, just hoping for comments and whatnot.

I was just wondering if anybody else in the club was on there. Seems like a good place to get your music out there.

Nothing from me on YouTube- Kimberly has quite a few videos on YouTube, you can find them in the gig section.  
 
Any word on the stolen Darkstar?

Unfortunately, no word on Dark Star.  
I've been dealing with moving to NYC lately, so I've kind of had to put my search on the backburner, but I still have plenty of people looking out for me.
I'll just play my excel and try to stay calm.....

Cool!!!!
 
Kimberly has lots of stuff up on YouTube, and there's a video of Flax's band.  That's all I remember seeing at the moment; but then I'm pretty forgetful.  Oh, and Trip Wamsley just recently joined the club, and he's got some stuff up as well.

Hi Austin,
 
Interesting style to me.  I've never played an upright so I'm clueless when it comes to the 'mechanics' of playing one.  However, I couldn't help but notice your thumb usage on the fret board.  Is this typical of an upright style?  I used to do something 'somewhat' similar way back when on a right handed Jazz bass.  The strap 'came up' right about the 12th fret (I play left handed upside down) and I'd have to play with my thumb over the fret board from the 12th up.  But, I never thought about using it to fret with, only to 'keep it out of the way'.  ;)
 
  Thanks for the video *and* the inspiration.  Thought provoking.

There are some older videos of I Like Orange up there, all put up by this person:

Taken, I think, with a digital camera- short, low quality, and you can't really hear the bass, but there it is.
