[@mobiusII]

I liked everything but the sax playing. The trumpet player was hip as hell! That bass player is just nasty...in a good way!

[@RIPJoeJoe]

I played tenor sax for a couple years and the octave changes are freaking impossible to master like this guy :p. The bassist is good and if I had to say, I'd give them 5 stars :p.

[@demonwolfdawg]

Nice

[@TheParis1940s]

yeah it's good

[@EtYR3Akz]

[@siam200]

how CAN someone dislike dis vid

[@jspianoman07]

[@janjonasappel]

@Fishdogpigsquirrel he's also a guitar player of Matchbox 20

[@sebomalebo]

haha awesome

[@MrFunkanova]

Seijachan88 i agree with you but there are sopranos that look like altos,altos with tenor neckpieces and tenors with alto neckpieces so apart from the neckpieces you must check the size and the sound to be accurate of what type of sax you hear

[@Jrobin96]

@grimjimmy yes i do, i play tenor, and i can do that and ive only been playing for a year.

[@apieceofgarbage7301]

I came for sax but god damn that bass is sexy

[@thagodfather007]

@klaytoon16 everythin is difficult when u start out but it get easy once u hv experience

[@NicChambers93]

is it sad that even over the good saxophone solo i can hear that bass player just goin at it? haha

[@TheKimRo]

Keijo Pekoni rummuissa!;-D

[@560blindrobots]

SHOW ME THE BASSIST

[@DMANtheWolf]

Is that a keilwerth shadow i see!!

[@cpreston5]

@vbManu I've been learning for about 3 years now, and yeah it's hard, being able to do all that kind of stuff is well out my league still, and will be for several more eyears probably. I mean, that guys probably been playing almost all his life.

[@homoaquatico]

@DJ4iiiiZ Jazz Fusion/neo jazz I would think.

[@zzzchuckyrockerzzz]

He gets all da ladies

[@wolfman1234]

I think it´s called Rockall!

[@shealinbanta4169]

The tenor saxophone almost sounds like an alto saxophone

[@kurikokaleidoscope]

hello from kurikokaleidoscope

[@MrMusic751]

love the sax sound. whats your setup?

[@Fishdogpigsquirrel]

I didn't know Kevin Bacon is also an Icelandic jazz drummer

[@altologist]

sadly the same can't be said about saxophonist vs guitarists:)

[@lokir]

His playing reminds me of Grover Washington Jr... not as polished but still groovy.

[@TGF87]

Iceland.

[@Mikezalolz]

and why is it the guy with the sax the only one wondering like a drunk?

[@jejuneraccoon]

@214157 AMEN

[@thagodfather007]

@vbManu depends wat song and how experience and skilld u are

[@Mybreathstinks]

@Kevinlolification LOL!!!!!!!! xD xD

[@dieterknospe]

whats the name of the piece of music? I LOVE MEZZOFORTE!!! :D

[@JKDJclc]

@Kevinlolification HAHAHAHAHAHA YEEAH MAN

[@oldham42]

This doesn't meet my definition of crazy. It's definitely a really funky piece of music, but when I hear "crazy sax playing" I wanna hearing some Charlie Parker-esque soloing going on.

[@Manu-dg]

I'd like to play sax; is it hard to learn ? how long do I need to practice by playing an entire song ?

[@chefdusax]

Nooo! The saxophonist no.! But the bassist grooveman is beatiful

[@AreSkavlid]

@Seijachan88 Then how do you tell apart a soprano sax from a sopranino sax, or a barisax from a bass sax? (apart from the size)

[@jazzswingsoulblues]

sick bled lol

[@abyssus99]

@chuckymetallica1395 If only.

[@phoebe3518]

And then they disappeared forever

[@Georg5555]
