this guys performance on LArks Tongues Aspic 2 live is so fucking legendary, also every line he did on Discipline is gold
Love this nigga like you wouldn't know
>>130704980
>>130704980He opens the album Discipline in such a kino way.How much does a chapman stick cost?
>>130706707$4k plus the rest of your life trying to learn how to play it.
>>130706707Expensive because it's such a niche instrument it's not mass producedThere's also this instrument called touch guitar and it's also equally expensive https://www.touchguitars.com/models-specs/
Saw him live with the stickmen (and Pat Mastelotto)It was great and at the end of the show after the lights went on again and people were starting to leave, they start playing Elephant Talk.
>>130704980dude just turned 80, absolute legend.They say "never meet your heroes" but I met him once and he was super cool. Just a great guy.
>>130712653The stars are the ones you don't want to get too close to. The sidemen tend to be chill.
>>130704980he did the bass solo on Pink Floyd's One Slip off of AMLOR.
>>130712691yeah his playing was among the few bright spots of AMLOR.Interestingly enough though he didn't do the little bass solo on On the Turning Away - that was Gilmie playing on a fretless Carvin.
>>130712666trips of truth checkedcan verify - I got to meet Kenny Kirkland in the 90s before he died along with Omar Hakim and they were both solid citizens.David Garibaldi too
>>130706707Honestly you're probably better off doing like Les Claypool and just trying to emulate the sound on a six string bass
