David Dyson & Damian Erskine at Bass Bash NAMM 2010

[@thegroovesarge]

Wow is all I can say. Not often do you get your fav bassists together at one time. Two great groovers, players, and great human beings. The world needs more bass players like you two.

[@LohandfunkTube]

Honored!🙏🏽

[@things_i_like1354]

Enjoying the groove in 2022.

[@Bassic778]

I agree.......it never gets old. Damian and David are amazing soloists while never forgetting that the groove comes first. The LoPhat 410 cab is ridiculous and is now the number one choice for my next cab!!! My Goodness!!!!!!!!

[@Monkeygroover]

[@chardbass]

Drummer. Oh my word- what a joy. Bass playing simply fantastic from both you guys- the drummer did an incredible job. Laid it down at the right time during David's solo and reacted with flair during your solo. Great stuff :-)

[@LohandfunkTube]

Thanks! The great Eric Valentine on drums!

[@MOSes020]

[@mtd535]

[@LohandfunkTube]

Thanks!🙏🏽

[@STONEAJE]

@codyhansonbass It's also just a camera (or phone) so it's hard to really tell how the tone is.

[@TheGodfatherOfGospel]

Yeah Dave!!!!

[@LohandfunkTube]

Thanks!

[@MrGlobalcheese]

I had seen this about 5 years ago. It still kills. And will forever more.

[@Spree389]

[@LohandfunkTube]

Thank you!🙏🏽

[@ChristJesusAddict]

[@DamianErskineBass]

Those are both Skjold Basses!! 8)

[@AlexKalicinski]

Wow they sound so nice. Skjold ftw

[@bassheadjazz2708]

Dysons sound and pocket is deep nasty, I feel bad for that tweeter! Killer jam.

[@LohandfunkTube]

Thank you! Sorry about the extreme treble. Was using that equipment for the first time and had no soundcheck so it was extra crisp! Lol

[@MJ98774]

@@LohandfunkTube Hey man it sounds great! All your ghost notes come out nice and crisp! Badass tone!

[@LohandfunkTube]

@@MJ98774 Thanks man!

[@bboytony209]

@damianerskine So these basses are not affiliated with the MTD Brand??

[@LohandfunkTube]

Nope. They are Skjold Basses made by Pete Skjold www.skjolddesign.com

[@BradTaylorBass]

Damian!!! you have this neo soul feel to your groove bro, love it!!! keep doing you man

[@jwanbass]

i have never heard pocket like this. Good Lawd!

[@LohandfunkTube]

Thanks!🙏🏽

[@Durva101]

wat strings is dyson useing?

[@LohandfunkTube]

Was using Dean Markley Blue Steels then. Now.. Dunlop nickel Medium lights

[@phillybass101]

a lesson for all musicians. Play with your ears open and your heads up. David nodded yes to go back into the chorus but this is where he starts his bass solo. He quickly shakes his head no at Damien for him to lay out. He does it one more time before he gets loose. I can't count the number of times I've jammed with cats who pay with their heads down. wake up or you might miss something. I'm nowhere near Damien or Daivd but I play with cats who are working professionals and I always look up

[@hughzev2336]

i dont mean to be offtopic but does anybody know of a trick to get back into an Instagram account?? I somehow forgot my login password. I love any tips you can give me.

[@daxryland2233]

@Hugh Zev instablaster ;)

[@hughzev2336]

@Dax Ryland I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and Im trying it out now. Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@hughzev2336]

@Dax Ryland it worked and I actually got access to my account again. I am so happy:D Thanks so much, you saved my ass!

[@daxryland2233]

@Hugh Zev Glad I could help =)

[@joaoantonio19681]

New Kids on the block's bass !!! Excellent !!!

[@LohandfunkTube]

Ha! Thanks!

[@GregF71]

saw Dave killin it with Steve Coleman 15 years ago, i'll never forget that night 8P Thanks for posting ¨Peace out

[@anahowana]

@wcr4 hehe, you should say: sweet Skjold !

[@ULIGH]

deeeaaaaammnnn

[@phillybass101]

Sorry if anyone misunderstood me in a previous post. I meant to say that Damien and David are far better musicians and bassists that I ever hope to be. They are looking at each other and communicating, not playing all the time with their heads down or getting so much into it that they lose one another. A lesson that was taught to me by a friend who is a professional drummer and has toured the world. Maybe this is just a lesson for me :-)

[@modulusism]

1 word sick......

[@sevag33]

Fantastic solo, Damian!!!

[@LohandfunkTube]

Damien is a beast!!!

[@derrickthirtynine]

Damian, you're a BAD man yourself. You and David groove well together.

[@burlapsax]

very interesting.. i like the "sinister minister" quote around 6:25 ;)

[@bayce3]

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I think my face is frozen!!!!!!!

[@LohandfunkTube]

😂

[@Mariodupree]

Oh my God! David Dyson is my new hero!

[@LohandfunkTube]

Honored!🙏🏽

[@Gray-_-Fox]

3:34 >> OMFG !!

[@bassgodz]

Hey Dave!!!Your ears go back like an Avatar when you get funky!!!LOL

[@LohandfunkTube]

Lol

[@DamianErskineBass]

@bboytony209 nope, not at all. They're both built by Pete Skjold in Ohio. Google Skjold design to check out the site

[@schecter5strg]

Shhhmmmooookkkkaaaaannnn!!!!!

[@coolaxe-dw4840]

Awesome Musicians 🎶🎶🎶🎶

[@Ploeg1987]

Who is that drummer ! Damn this just made my day! Great playing by the way :) !

[@LohandfunkTube]

Eric Valentine! Bad dude!!

[@adurgaram]

Great great great!!! I love your dance Damian @ 1:36 groovy!!!

[@ICOMEOUTSMOKIN]

Although both bass players are very tight....that drummer is smokin too. Who is that.

[@LohandfunkTube]

Thanks🙏🏽Yessir! The drummer is Eric Valentine!

[@hahabass]

That's some razor-sharp hair-cutting top end on Dyson's eq. Woah!

[@codia12]

excuse me while i go check my underwear..i think i just peed myself!!

[@LohandfunkTube]

😂

[@kraw7272]

Better late than never lol. I think David stated he always sets his amp flat. That's the sound he likes. Not my cup of tea but what do I know lol.

[@codyhansonbass]

@STONEAJE True that. Not bagging on David's playing at all, the guy is a monster. Just can't stand the tone.

[@afeschyn]

Dyson's Skjold sounds great, though I do not care for the look of the headstock. Looks too much like a spoon, imo. He really seems to be in the moment here. Great players like David Dyson can play the same or similar lines over and over without it getting old. I guess that's what having great groove is all about.

[@LohandfunkTube]

Thanks for your kind words.

[@henniebogan1]

illl bet you 10 bucks he's slapping in E

[@LohandfunkTube]

As if that is the only key to slap in? Any key is welcome for slap and otherwise, sir.

[@Dolla5101]

😂😂😂😂😂

[@codyhansonbass]

Awesome playing from both Damian and David. Am I the only one who can't stand David's tone though? It seems like every modern slap style bassist feels compelled to scoop their low mids way too much for my liking.

[@LohandfunkTube]

I agree upon listening, but 1. That was the first time playing through Lo Phat equipment period and 2. It could also be the phone or camera it was recorded on. Either way..I agree.

[@pearldrumsets]

yo to be honest neither of you cats cud keep up with david dyson his pocket is to deep.

[@drumtwo4seven]

That dude bobbin and chuckin his head all over the place looks goofy as hell. Yikes! ...drummers doing it too DAMN, STOP THAT ! GOOFY

[@questcowboyz6844]

I was enjoying it right up "until" the drummer, was too busy, over playing, too much and cymbal crash on the brother on the left solo. to me he should have been more laid back at that point it wasn't about the drums. but overall three great musicians

[@phillybass101]

a lesson for all musicians. Play with your ears open and your heads up. David nodded yes to go back into the verse but this is where he starts his bass solo.
