JMT3781 Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 If you wanna see sklar at his best.. Check out the Falling in Between (TOTO) live dvd.. His "understated" bass playing is amazing.. and he learnt the whole set in 5 days! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gust0o Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 Wow, that's something alright! Odd aside - Gareth, are you the lad from WHO2 on Youtube? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 He's in NZ at the moment with James Taylor. I was going to meet up with him in Christchurch yesterday but I couldn't get time away when he was available. Really professional guy and very sincere although he's a very straight talker too. I understand why he's a first call session bassist, he takes nothing for granted and really does give the job everything he's got. But by the same token, its a hard life if you have to play despite the effects of jetlag! Tonight he's in Auckland and then they fly out to Japan. He had 2 weeks to learn all of the songs for the James Taylor tour and it was doing his head in but he stuck with it. I'm not sure the band had much by way of rehearsals either so talk about being thrown into the deep end. He seems happy enough so far.
