Best video from BPL so far. I love hearing the passion and the stories come out of your mouth BP. In my humble opinion, it is that passion that really sets you all at the next level, and allows your stuff to continually innovate. At a minimum I appreciate it.

Great video, awesome groove and as always, love what you have to say about this stuff.

OHHHHHH YOu Tube It helps us tell out story and there is no edit...coupla musical clams on my part...I just dont get to play enough but I love it and playing with ferraro is just the best...he taught me so much as a bassist....How about Dave Marotta and Jennifer Young? Stan and Juan...Im like wheres waldo. I do have an excuse....Capt Don is my witness....I was showing someone how to light this giant smoker with a torch the night before and burned the majority of my left palm.....Thats my story and Im sticking to it. It just now healed.

THat classic series Stingray is pretty sweet though! One trick pony? huh?

that was cool.

BP is really very very good on bass.

The fingerstyle playing of Dave Marotta blew me away. Awesome touch and tone. I need to find out more about him.

My thought after practicing tonight and watching this video is there is NO WAY any of these basses are one trick ponies... there are too many tones available.

And, I am also proud to be a Bongoloid

BP you are wicked...not only did you stand up and play tight among these crazy-good players, but you did so with a hand that made me cringe when I saw it! As always, Jackgowild (the consummate drummer) kept it way in the pocket, and the rest is youtube history. Keep the vids coming, it makes it easier for me to sell your stuff! -Capt. Don

Very cool. Maybe now instead of blogs every so often, we can get a video blog?

It's the trans white--shipped to me yesterday.

Great video, BP. Really enjoyed the phenomenal playing and excellent storytelling. Thanks for everything, especially for not dropping my new Classic.
