[@brucemerryman7365]

Axemarloe and I like it better!

[@rorybrooks1969]

Guys, the crowd’s for a masterclass, not a vulfpeck concert

[@sligojazz]

Thank you Rory! Yes it was at 4 in the afternoon to finish off our teaching programme that day on our amazing summer school! The jams and concert by the Olllam happened after that and had quite “lit” crowds if that’s the kind of thing that people are interested in 😂

[@user-im2fq8vk5f]

a Vulfpeck gig is a masterclass LOL

[@magplin]

@@sligojazz 🤣

[@JacksonHinton]

That crowd was lit

[@sligojazz]

It was a workshop/masterclass. Not a show. 🤗

[@JacksonHinton]

@@sligojazz and that workshop crowd was lit

[@sligojazz]

@@JacksonHinton you should have seen them a few hours later at the gig, this was 3pm in the afternoon part of a summer school programme. - full of music students, with a lot of conversation and interviewing, plus a few pieces of music like this. Everybody loved it, despite not dancing. Sometimes its about musicianship and learning your craft rather than partying.

[@JacksonHinton]

Sligo Jazz Project yeah but sometimes... it’s about being lit

[@KL_Stereo]

@@JacksonHinton Sometimes it's just too hard to admit you were wrong, huh

[@parkerthomsen4825]

May we address the true talent? All those people there who have the ability to not only sit, but sit still while the are playing DEAN TOWN!!!

[@rumpledxkn]

Well..... there’s this side of the coin then the other side, where their jam band fans (yes, I know they’re not a jam band) start singing the instrumental parts.

[@BearKillsJF]

How do you make the dean town bassline better? Just add another bass.

[@the_al_guy3169]

Seriously, it gave me goosebumps. Such a great performance.

[@greggifford1752]

Especially a bass that Federico is playing

[@MrOlipaulo]

KZbin needs a LOVE button.

[@jondeberg2060]

He's playing it a bit faster than the album... Damn HAHA

[@SakaErkan]

Album bpm is 109. This live record is 115

[@GreifvogelSGE]

He always does that live

[@0777coco]

no xanax, no beta blockers, fully adrenalized!

[@fabianvanderelst9643]

Look at the live version at Madison Square Garden. It starts out like this maybe, but it gets faster and faster as well. It's ridiculously fast lol

[@ianandrews8204]

The emphatic head nodding at 2:25 takes the audience participation award...

[@michaelcallaghan6147]

Those extra fills by Fede are absolutely RIDICULOUS. So tasty!

[@JonSebastianF]

2:27 reference to "Teen Town"!

[@liamcashin2924]

I like to think the whole song is a reference to "Teen Town"

[@MM-vs2et]

The whole song is Woody Goss' tribute to Teen Town. There's a reason he named it DEAN Town, you know, a nod to TEEN Town. Also, the song structure and melody is similarly similar.

[@arunthebuffoon4554]

Also, apparently Joe Dart's nickname is dean among the vulfpeck members.

[@JonSebastianF]

@@liamcashin2924 Of course, of course, but that piano lick is an extra explicit riff from "Teen Town", not featured on Vulfpeck's original recording :)

[@AdamHallacher]

joe was very happy about it

[@kimscott864]

Two of the worlds best bassplayers on the same stage 👍🎸 Goosebumps 😉

[@marktyler3381]

There are defo bits of Teen Town all over this, and fair play with the title. I only discovered these guys a week ago, Joe Dart especially - boom! I'm going to learn this like I learnt Teen Town.

[@maximiliangfrorer1039]

Well yea, that's why they named it that way. It is heavily inspired by Teen Town.

[@beam3932]

Yeah, it's an homage to teen town.

[@MarcellinusVD]

Dean Town for bass guitar is like Eruption on electric guitar, I can listen to this over and over again.

[@ThatsDickedUp]

Malaman is a machine, I cant imagine him making a mistake, it seems so easy for him. Im not even a Malaman fan perse, but its just how it seems to me.

[@ericgelders]

PIano sounds really fit the song - even in this improv-like settings that groove is Strong!

[@patrickr12342]

Wow,love that bassline!!! It is the raw essence of life. Timeless and so good.

[@BearKillsJF]

Just spotted the Teen Town reference. Very clever that

[@csabycsaby7631]

Federico the best bass player in the music life ! He playing from heart! He finger technic..danger! My favorites.I hope see him sametime.

[@pietrozaffutomusic]

Malaman 🇮🇹💕

[@villegas24]

Joe dart has reached legendary status

[@adamgreenan30]

i cant believe i missed this. Im from clare and wouldve loved to witness this, one of my favourite bands and i have a passion for music.

[@latigidon8226]

Bass player: buys octaver pedal Joe Dart: buys bass guitarist

[@agungandy836]

Amazing crowd .... Wow so much enthusiasm and chaos so brutal

[@sligojazz]

it was a masterclass mate, not a gig, it was 3pm in the afternoon and full of music students, with a lot of conversation and interviewing, plus a few pieces of music like this. Everybody loved it, despite not dancing. Sometimes its about musicianship and learning your craft rather than partying.

[@JimpsonSohn16]

That fill Malaman plays at 1:42 thoooooooooooo

[@jehl1116]

When you’re the best, you’re the best. Malaman: nobody like him!

[@jamespatrick4654]

UB40 Food of thought.mmmFood for thought.

[@sweetegg]

That piano really gives it a jazzy vibe, wonder If a jazz cover of dean town would sound any good

[@parkerwalters1204]

SweetEgg it’d probably dope

[@pathwalkermmjdh6346]

This. Is. SWEET!

[@vaughangilligan2000]

Awesome night! Thanks Eddie and everyone else involved. 🙂

[@MatONeill]

Amazing! Bravo!!!

[@boxobanter3278]

Yeah ok Sligeach just sit there

[@Phil_the_Fedora_Musician]

What is this? A crossover episode?

[@ArtinSinger]

Phuu how unbelievable good 😮 So well done guys 👍😎

[@lorenzosalamone]

Grande Federico! Grande Joe!

[@AndreDeFunKt]

Vedere Malaman al piano mi ha colpito, grandissimo maestro musicale :)

[@Darkrye324]

Just goes to show how ridiculously tight vulfpeck are together

[@RaccZappa]

alternate dimention justin roiland on the 5 string

[@mv11000]

Joe has the attitude. Federico doesn't need attitude, he has technique.

[@frontleftfender]

The crowd woke up 4 hours later from their drug induced commas

[@MarkErikEE]

The stage must be made out of pure adamantium since it carries two of the heaviest of bass heavyweights.

[@ThumpingThromnambular]

Is there a recording of the full masterclass somewhere?

[@sligojazz]

WE may be uploading some more... subscribe to our channel

[@carloseduardodarocha4820]

Dois mitos!!!!

[@drey9430]

The one dude w nodding in the crowd would be me.

[@jjzmurphy]

Those ppl in the audience are dead, this is too funky to be still like that

[@temoii]

I really want to know how to get the tone he had at the beginning, it was so good

[@NRG2]

I was feeling Nathan Watts playing "Do I Do" here... Stevie's voice on a chorus in this song would be wiiild

[@CouchEconomyTX]

First time I’ve seen the audience NOT sing along Wtf

Plot twist, the big guitar was a bass with more strings!

[@surfingmantis6162]

Nice audience

[@davideanelli8774]

But....why the drummer dont use two hand on the hi hat???

[@iaial0]

Because he's badass. Not that using two is a crime, but being this precise and resilient is not easy at all

[@davideanelli8774]

In fact ne is not in perfect time and dont ha e the right groove...

[@BarnacleButtock]

Jesus the engineer needs a live mixing and recording masterclass

[@maximiliangfrorer1039]

Well, this wasn't meant as a concert. It was a workshop, so obviously the soundguy didn't anticipate a full blown show. If they even had a true engineer that is. Looks like a small private venue, so probably someone on the mixer who really has no clue. Also, it is recorded with a mobile phone, don't expect awesome quality of the microphone of a crappy phone :D

[@Xillaw]

Joe Dart is truly the Travis Barker of bassists!

[@Josh_Herman]

Never heard Joe Dart wiff anything... Must've been a little nervous 2:20

[@toomdog]

Nah, it was an accidental ;)

[@muffntheB]

i didn't know the dude who writes family guy could play bass

[@marklowe7431]

Kudos to Joe for playing a MIM Fender like Uriah and not being a custom shop elitist wanker. Chops speak for themselves. While it may be inspired by Jaco it does bring an original vibe also.

[@dronaircampo5150]

Wtf

[@herrbartels]

wow, playin' in front of a class of zombies with dead hips

[@sligojazz]

its a masterclass not a gig, its in the afternoon at a summer school. Joe made a lot of people's weeks and years richer afterwards by signing all the students basses and stuff, plus this is a very rare thing, to hear an impromptu performance of this fantastic tune by not just one but two incredible bass players. And we had that as part of our teaching programme. The moving hips came later in the day & thanks for your comment.

[@vadimislearningguitar4977]

well - how can Joe Dart (who is not a great player at all ) title a song dean town - hinting to - teen town - how ???

[@sligojazz]

in fact he didnt. It was his bandmate Woody that wrote it. Maybe as a challenge to him I dunno. And you are brave to say that JD is not a great player. Would like to hear you hold down one of his grooves for 5 minutes. Hi fills are on the money, in the style he plays in he is one fo the most solid.

[@vadimislearningguitar4977]

@@sligojazz when i say that he is not a good player - i mean that there are many out there better than him - more creative and consistent - the ability to hold a groove is basic for a bassist - and what's more the fact that he is hinting somehow to teen town - you have to be careful when you do that - i believe that he is a lot of show and little substance - if you check this - you get my meaning - kzbin.info/www/bejne/l3vHnnl6lMl4h8k - and then i had the feeling that i offended you personally - nowadays there are hundreds of great bass players but i believe you have to be careful to establish levels ...

[@jhgust]

Joe is good for a rocker but not at all on Federico's level.

[@villegas24]

Terrible crowd

[@sligojazz]

Enough with the lame crowd comments please. This was a daytime Masterclass not a concert, auditorium was lit and people were allowed ask questions etc - and we are so indebted to Joe for joining us for this very special moment in time. We are an educational organization that relies heavily on public funding to make our amazing events happen and affordable.
