That's Bill Clements, and we've all seen him before , his other video has been posted that many times on some bass sites that he's permanently stickied. I do like his style.

Totally agree! For heaven's sake, the guy is playing, with only one hand, an instrument that some of find tricky enough with two. Whether you like his style or not you have to respect the guy.

One hopes that all the idiotic and abusive remarks are the work of children who know no better. If the're the work of adults then there are some really screwed up prople out there.

i agree about idiots posting on youtube. i once saw on a victor wooten video someone put "its quite good, but hold your bass lower, you're not one of the beatles!" i felt like giving them a slap and telling them they can insult his stlye of playing once they're as good as him.

Living daily with only one arm would make it extremely strong.

props to him for keeping on playing but what he is playing sounds like crap - imo

still pretty cool though
