amazing musician.
maybe a repost? dunno....dun care...
regardless, this is some beautiful and intense playing...the guy can convey passion through the art of music.
if you smoke weed, get high and then watch it!!
he's damn good
but srsly, doesn't hold a candle to victor wooten
hold on a sec, i'll find a video
here we go
ignore the outfit, he may look silly but poooossibly with the exception of jaco, he might very well be the best bass player ever
edit: another amazing one, he does a cover of the beatles' norwegian wood:
that video is good too, the tuning thing at the very end was really cool.

I love the "Why My Guitar Gently Weeps" cover...it's been covered by so many different artists but I've never heard a version played like on that type of guitar.
That bass player is amazing as well (whats his name btw?)...I've never heard a bass played so beautifully before. I love music that takes an instrument like a bass which is usually a more background, strictly rhythm instrument and brings it out into the forefront and makes it sound so unique and beautiful.
i got his autograph before when i was in intermediate school. he basically just came to our school and kicked ass on that ukulele. definitely good at what he does. he used to play for a band called cologne but they broke a while ago.
thumbs up.
these guys must get so much poon, i wish i learned guitar instead of djing 
Both would make great additions to the gaming industry.

That truley inspired me. I just ordered an electric Ukulele from musiciansfriend.com. I cant wait. I'm going to learn how to play that.
You can tell these guys really "know" music and have amazing ability to play it. It just makes me sad because there are so many bands today (not all of them but most) that have musicians that can play basic music (3-chord progressions, pentatonic scales, etc.) but they never really explore music beyond that. Music can be so complex and deep if one puts the time into learning it. Music is meant to amaze the listener and stir their emotions out of them, most simple music just can't do that for me.

To the OP - music to my ears... 
That guy on the ukulele is Jake Shimabakuro, a legend here in Hawaii. I haven't had the grace of seeing him live, but I have heard his work on the local CD's he and his ex-band "Pure Heart" released here years ago. Here is a video of a young band doing a cover of a song he wrote called "Bodysurfing", with him as a special guest (playing rhythm).
And since we're speaking about talented musicians, I'd like to introduce Andy McKee to those of you who don't know him. AMAZING.
"Drifting"
"Into The Ocean"
Since this has turned into an awesome guitarist thread, here is a must see for any guitar enthusiast: Tim Reynolds alongside Dave Matthews.
I have never had a guitar move me as much as when Tim touches it, pure genius and incredible talent:

they played at kahala mall once. was pretty cool to see them live and it was also pretty crowded so ups to them on gathering a crowd.
Lights...........
Andy's 'Into the Ocean' is out of this world. I can't remember when a song touched me so much. I just had to buy the CD as soon as I heard it! Thanks for the great find!
