Thank you for posting that. I saw that and jumped on this vid. Love Dr Funk, and Portugal the Man. !!!!

[@ChadMc74]

I don’t think he’s a real doctor, but he’s awesome on that bass guitar

[@godsinbox]

not a real doctor but a real worm?

[@PremiumTrees]

I thought he was pretty surgical with those slaps, but I think you might be right.

[@downbytheriver501]

He got his doctorate from the same folks that gave Cosby his doctorate

[@nancybarry5262]

He sure knows how to “Doctor” that bass!

[@TheLowest]

He did 8 years in funky bass medical school not to just be called mr funk

FUCUUUUUUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK I JUST WROTE MY OWN COMMENT ABOUT IT BEFORE SEEING YOURS GOD DAMN IT

Man you can tell by the smirks on his face how this guy is enjoying the jam 😂 good job dude

[@jacetheface9606]

Jam face 🤘🏽

[@Mattkayina]

The purple haze is helping too😁

[@krypton9367]

@tone finder you mean 'Big guitar' face

[@Seabass901]

Seeing those people walk by without a glance... It makes me wonder how often we all unknowingly pass by something wonderful without giving a moments notice.

[@tawkzic2850]

Didn’t think it was gonna get any better than what he was doing until he started going CHEESE on the strings 1:32

[@G8tr1522]

same

[@salty-d5839]

I don't think he was even hitting notes, I though he was just goofing around and just smacking strings.

[@JB-mp7fo]

@@salty-d5839 its SLAP

[@zipperproductions1479]

[@QuackersCo]

When the slapping kicked in I started bouncing.

[@Taytates-lr6kg]

I seen this guy lots.. Fuckin awesome musician.. I always throw a few quid in.. Loved watching him play.. Just mad skills..

[@Fuaarrkk]

I bet you never throw any money in

[@citydogband]

@@Fuaarrkk odd assumption.

[@deadbeatproz]

Quid? Where you from?

[@unfunnydave5485]

I know he’s pretty funkin great

[@TheManWithNoName.]

@@deadbeatproza quid is what we call a pound in england . a bit like how americans call dollars bucks

[@StarsWithScars]

First I was like "Meh" but than as he slaps I was like "booom he got it!"

[@TheNix333]

Yes Johnny!! Well known face in our town, extremely talented and a nice guy . . Plays in and around Town with his band as well...

[@mennobults6464]

Jonny is a amazing bass guitar player, like John Entwistle called himself, not a bass player. The best a heart for a long time. Jonny, you are simply the best. I love the fun you have and give to other people. 💖👍 This is like therapy for me.

[@purelyimprove43]

It’s amazing how many people walk straight past this greatness

[@treboreimaj3274]

I will never understand the people that walk right by. I have 3 kids and I would force them to watch and observe greatness.

[@MrMizzkitten]

cos he is mediocre at best.

[@MrMizzkitten]

@z z I play bass professionally and let me tell you he is not good.

[@MrMizzkitten]

@z z The fact that you think that is outside the realms of possibility shows that you have exceptionally low targets in life and probably get impressed by people farting.

[@jefftrainor151]

@z z he doesn't speed anything up. I live in the town he busks in, seen him play loads of times. What you see is how he plays.

[@jimmy-sj4ht]

@@jefftrainor151 he is just envious

[@IMP3TIGO]

Love that you can listen to a guy play the bass on this channel instead of endless memes. Yeah, I said it.

[@tsamlynx495]

IMP3TIGO was waiting for someone to say it, imo his channel has gone down hill and what use to be a great channel has quickly become a very normal meme channel who’s host can play an instrument well. I’m not talking about this guy to clear things up if u know how I’m talking about u know.

[@IMP3TIGO]

Tsam LYNX yup, exactly. His subscription rate isn't slowing down so I get why he does it, but it's boring now. He needs some new ideas.

[@TB-cz5ko]

True

[@Kayris]

Slap like NOW! if you know who 😂👍

[@tristenhodges3034]

SHHHHHH ARE YOU CRAZY?!?! DAVIES ALWAYS LISTENING

[@frankiefarrell4760]

Simply beautiful. I would love to drag a little 3 piece kit right up to this cat and jam like the brothers we are. “Life without music would be a mistake”.

[@bruxxx4948]

Blows my mind to see people walk past with their nose turned up

[@westsun3181]

Who cares

[@guyromstadt5858]

Your right,I just found the Funk !!!

[@dontemchan]

Some people don't understand art, but also: no one is obligated to listen. They have their own lives to worry about.

[@hihowareyou6629]

Haha!! Look at all of you people assuming things. You dont know whats going through their minds when they walk by. Some of them could be accomplished musicians themselves. This could be in an area where dozens of people do this all day. They could just be enjoying their day and not that focused on one musician. Y'all need to pull that veil from off your eyes.

[@nicetoad]

some people have places to be...

[@lordkeemo239]

Why the hell are there 7 thumbs down for this?!! It's genius!!

[@colbykinney5633]

There's always a few assholes in the bunch.
