bass is best

So pretty much yesterday was the best Monday of my week so far. After dropping my bassoon (that part wasn't so great...), I skipped Youth Symphony rehearsal and went to a Victor Wooten concert. Basically, he's the best bassist alive. (On a side note, one of the benefits of taking a couple college classes is that I get tickets for about a third the price I normally would.) I honestly don't know how many hands he has. Probably something like this:

Plus all of his brothers were there. Just a few highlights: Reggie picking his guitar with his tongue, Rudy playing two saxophones at once and circular breathing, Victor playing the most amazing funk rendition of Amazing Grace. Occasionally their stage tricks got a bit too crazy, but mostly it was sweet. Oh, and after the foUrty-five minute encore, they threw drumsticks out into the audience and I caught one. I have never seen a more beat up piece of wood in my life.

P.S. has anyone heard of Sigur Ros? They're coming to town soon, and I'm wondering if I should go.
