Bela Fleck usually plays with the Flecktones......unbelievable jazz...with a banjo! The Flecktones star Victor Wooten on bass. He might be the best bass player on the planet.Seriously.

Chick Corea is a jazz keyboardist ... probably more well know for playing with Stanley Clark and the guys in the late '70's fusion jazz scene.

I'm a big fan of Chick Corea, especially his work wiht the Electric and Acoustic bands. Plus John Patitucci on bass and Dave Weckl on drums - I'm not worthy:bowdown:


...I got tickets to see Blue Man Group for the 15'th they beat drums and make music on PVC pipes... think that may be more my speed.

I saw them last year in Vegas - what a trip those guys are!!!

Axe-man!

OMG!!!! :blink:

Not what I thought!!!!! :blink: :blink: :blink:

These guys were great.
BUT....The sound was so f***ing monotonous without a frikken rhythm section it was unbelievable!

Several times I found myself going to sleep.
I'm sitting in the same room as Greatness...and I'm frikkin' sleepin'....???!!!
...so I look over at the OL, she's out like a light.
Then I looked over my shoulder and saw a few more folks asleep.

Just goes to show that A+ B doen't always = C.

The CD would be good for insomniacs.
