hooky_lowdown Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 I came across this funk cover of the Radiohead classic Creep the other day. Despite the band being excellent, and the singer a treat for the eyes, it's the bassist in this video who I couldn't take my eyes off. Are there any videos others have seen where the bassist essentially steals the performance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuzzie Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 I am not sure if it’s the socks and sandals or the head nod tennis between him and keys I like best 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owen Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 I cannot remember his name but he crops up everywhere. With good reason. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gjones Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 (edited) The bassist and keyboard player look like they could be characters from 'The Big Bang Theory'. It reminds me of when I played at a mathematics conference at St Andrews University, a few years ago. There was a lot of sandal and sock action on the dance floor that night.

Crawford13 Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 Scary Pockets are awesome! I lost a whole day when I found them on you tube. My personal favourite was the cover of Kate by Ben Folds, and Ben Folds actually joined them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The poor bassist appears to be having some kind of medical episode, and the nasty keyboardist is taking the pith out of him.

I reckon he's on a nice little earner now and can do music entirely for fun - I suspect his financial worries are taken care of considering he is the CEO and co-founder of Patreon. If you believe google, he's currently worth a cool $5 million. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owen Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 Here he is with Louis. Check out the throat thing at 1:10ish while you are here. Louis is in Machester on March the 12th and might well have Sam with him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
