I played 10 gigs in 1 weekend 

Been to a few local rock shows where the drummer or bass player were the same guy for like 3 or 4 "bands".

it's kinda normal specially music festivals like that, the drummer many times is the same guy

Nico Scholz imagine going to a jazz festival and every band you go see plays jazz

Lol thats just everywhere

Like if people noticed bassists at all

Toby Freitas same

Indeed

SAMEEE

Nah he was being sarcastic. That's not the universal, i.e. all music genres, sign for the bridge because there is none generally and each group agrees on their own before the set. But specifically in American jazz it used to be pointing to the bridge of your own nose, and in CCM they would do the "shaka" sign.

@@rio197 or if you play James Brown style classic funk, the sign is shouting "BRIDGE" audible over the stage volume

Do it

I’m on it!

Adam in 2020: “I Re-enacted My Playing the Lick for 5 hours Video on Stage Twelve Times Consecutively in Eight Different Countries”

@@MisterAppleEsq Adam is Sisyphus, RU-vid is a hill, and jazz is the boulder that he endlessly rolls upwards. We're there at every second, sneering at him, throwing things at him to continue.

Don't "new" and "novel" mean the same thing tho?

@@Ricocossa1 It's a literary technique that I forgot the name of, using multiple synonyms to describe one thing.

@@MisterAppleEsq you mean a pleonasm? I think it's called like that

Depresso Espresso nice name

It's like muso version of the penultimate reel of Goodfellas.

"I Luuuuuuv J AAAAAAA Z"

Seriously, I love these tho

Manchester to London is 2hrs on the train

your turn to come play at Cork Jazz ! :-D

And once again, Aimee say it all with grace, elegance, and brevity.

You aren’t wrong but hey if the bassists aren’t safe from posture conscious band teachers then no one is

stevan ewald 8:11 had to

Is better for your overall hands and arms ergonomics to have the bass higher

I recently discovered that posture for me. Works great for relaxed playing of rather complex stuff on guitar.

Read "THAT IS ILLEGAL" in Davie504's voice.

Italian mann and jazz man needs to do a bass-off, who's with me?

@@mfaizsyahmi I'm afraid Adam will win

Adam will SLAP him any time

I'd LOVE to see such a coop in both channels. One actual performance, but presented and commented in their SO different styles. Would be fun.

Hey RJ. I'm a fan :D

I'm imagining Adam naturalizing to Cork slang : "How's it goin' biy!" "Alright KID!"

@@SeanFarFlung 'story Sean?

It's possible really. Bass players are so rare nowadays

Cmere t'me, gissabashoffyourbass

I have never dived into jazz culture. Its super small where i am. I just wonder if there is drugs involved (i mean the listeners) sounds like good music for it

@@kilianbader9786 no

Kilian Bader same here, Mexico doesn’t have that much of a jazz culture. There is one jazz school that I want to go to once the quarantine is over or I’m able to go but I can’t find it on the internet, I had to ask a violin player friend who is in an orchestra.

"How much Jazz would you like?" "YES."

All of me

Oh Shit you're right. Nice catch

get gigging!

@@JimboDoomface gigida gigada gig a dee

this guy gets it

@Caster Jr depends where you are. where I am in the UK I started out doing a lot of open mic nights and meeting people that way, as well as showcasing what I was good at. then I started doing gigs supporting people I'd met until I was confident enough to start putting on my own and getting people to play at mine. I'm booking for a couple of venues in york now helping people get started like I was 15 years ago. I had to play for free for about four years until I started making a bit of money- and covers gigs are much easier to get into and to get paid for as well. much easier. it's competitive so obviously you need to be good and you need to know the right people. practice till you're tight and then go out and do some schmoozing. I remember the first time I performed I was so nervous my legs were shaking like I was having a fit. good luck!

I've done one (I was supposed to do 2 others but I wasn't available) and it was fun and paid well.

Phillip's living up in Chicago! Adam's working hard in Ireland!

Wait he has a channel?!!

@@Seth-hc2bj no, the You, in Weird Cities video!

I'd say playing 5 in one day is more extreme than 10 in four days

Matteo Bertozzi I’m so confused about that

@@johnabanador7192 Mary Spender, a guitarist singer-songwriter, has a RU-vid channel and a series called Tuesday Talks. But she's British, so she has an accent and it's now a joke on her channel. Chewsday Tawks.

@zivbu10 Sorry; I got onto a bit of a saxoroll.

If it's Barry White it's a sexophone

This was a very crazy joke. Probably plays madsophone. If it is chubby, fatsophone.

After 10 gigs in four days, I imagine you need to relaxophone.

This comment section is just pure gold!

Heard it pretty clearly at the beginning of Gig 8

The man asking the hard hitting questions!

At least once 9:50

"too much jazz" = money xd

@@rafaelsantos-xn7wi i don't think any amount of jazz equals money

Guess it depends on which side of the stage you’re on

Its like bass, you can never have to much.

$1,000,000 × Jazz = Jazz

Yeah, but that's a good thing, right?

As long as it makes people happy and brings people together, it doesn't have to be jazz.

Hi Tom, that was probably aimed at who the festival organisers are booking these days, Aslan were booked as a headline act for instance, and with respect to Aslan, they are a world away from Jazz. It has become about drawing the general public in, and fair enough there are economics at play, but this was once done with a little bit more consideration and taste perhaps.

Close enough for jazz

@@chrisofnottingham would say that's a bad thing, considering how little jazz is actually played these days.

First thing I noticed.

@@whatismai Unless things have changed recently, he's been dating Justina Soto (Jae Soto) for years.

@@whatismai I always thought they were a couple. Maybe off and on, but there seems to be something there.

People *can* be friends and/or loan out their spaces to one another without being sexually involved - it’s really quite usual - so while speculating couplehood here is clearly intended harmlessly… it’s also a little silly, and doesn’t do much to advance humankind’s maturing? I mean, whatever. We all feel closer to semi-public figures than we really are, I just wish we lived in a world where the knee-jerk reaction to two people of the opposite sex collaborating wasn’t to speculate on whether or not they’re banging it out, or even to assume all individuals want to be in a relationship… plenty of people are happy alone, or more fulfilled with friends and colleagues and a career and artistic pursuits than with some cuddly-wuddly snuggle-snookums, or prefer serial monogamy to permanent commitment, or a wide variety of casual hookups to serial monogamy, or or or… I’m not scolding, I’m just saying: with such a wide variety of human experiences to choose from, I wish we wouldn’t impose on one another the assumption that everyone’s first choice is always to bang the nearest opposite-sex person: even beyond the fact that not everyone is straight, in a cold and lonely world it should be enough to think “Oh, two people get along well enough to share a space, that’s excellent!” and be happy for that alone, and just leave it there. Even if we imagine a closeness to a semi-public figure and wish them well, friendship, or even just cordiality, is cause enough to celebrate! It doesn’t always have to be smooches and fluid exchange. And yes, I think that’s Mary Spender’s space, good eye! 🙂

@@danopticon beautifully said. Coudn't agree more. I just wanted to be sure, nothing more than that :) . Adam and Mary have been collaborating for long and sharing of studios will happen inevitably.

Was it tho?

Vyasama it def wasn’t unironic

@@RU-vidPizzer No use of the licc is completely unironic imo

GabeTheBabe it was literally Bb C Db Eb C Ab Bb, but sure, def just a run up a scale

I have a Mono case (Vertigo) and I’ve flown with it countless times with a variety of different guitars. It’s gone in the hold and I’ve sometimes been able to take it into the cabin and every time my guitars have been totally fine. They’re amazing cases!
