Thank you so much

I was at this performance and it was magical. I remember feeling like "I can tell what he is about to do but I don't believe it!". What was left out of this recording is that this was just weeks after 9/11 and practically blocks away from ground zero. a woman came out to announce him before he came on and said "Victors birthday was on 9/11 and rather than com e out and talk about how the day felt for him he wrote a song about it". Then he came out and played this! it was very moving. I imagined that the start is his day starting off nice and happy then as he detunes the strings and starts the banging is the buildings collapsing then the finish well that was just amazing. This is amazing in itself but knowing the meaning made it that much more special.

jesse citron I often find after some time has passed I find the inspiration behind a song I like (or perhaps a song that didn’t really grab me) and it makes me love the song. I didn’t know anything about 9/11 being Vic’s bday. Your interpretation of the song makes all the sense in the world.

The Flecktones later made a version of this song, titled "Reminiscence", on their 2003 release Little Worlds. Epic stuff right here.

That is amazing that people were even able to go on with their lives that close to the heart of the tragedy.

2022 and still amazed to this performance and musicality

I met Mr. Victor Wooten today! He bravely departed my airplane to do his first tandem parachute jump! He is a musical and Bass Guitar Prodigy! I was flying on his birthday in 2001. Life has changed, but we are all in this together, forever...His talent promotes positivity and hope!

Im going to do this every time I tune up.

Seriously brings tears to the eyes. Very moving and powerful performance.

So glad this is back on the Tube as a complete video. Unparalleled Victor genius.

Esse cara é um monstro...

victor seems like such a stand up guy and doesnt have a big head at all which he could cause he's mind blowing on bass. how does this have any dislikes? are ppl nuts? everything he does is like drugs for your ears. victor is awesome.

Holy Phenomenal, Batman!!! That's just insane... luv it!!!

flickin wow!!!!!!

Con el respetó de todos este es el mejor bajista para mí en su género

What I cannot understand is how Show Of Hands barely has 100k views on youtube can someone explain to me how Victor is so well known and so highly under played???

Gotta love his "of course I was gonna tune it back" face..."it´s me Victa.." (at the end of the tune...)

Sensacional

ovación por favor!!! que genio!!

One of the best composition on a bass ever in my opinion... So moving! And I suspect he's not even using a tuner when he finishes the song!

no one can grove like victor wooten :D

I played this through my bass amp so it was like Vic was playing in my room.

What a trip.

those chords at 3:40 just amazing reminds me of a lot of things

Segundo o que falou um norte americano aqui nos comentários (Jesse) o Victor Wooten fez essa performance em alusão ao 11 de Setembro, dia da tragédia e também dia do seu aniversário. Mostra como ele começou o dia bem e feliz e quando ele desafina as cordas o atentado começa...

Genius

いつ見てもこの演奏は凄まじい。いや、絶対コピー出来ない曲とはまさにこの事

The best

Te amare wooten eres grande!! No ai bajista ke te opaque!

Я о вечном

Cool

WOW

Incredible even for his own godly standards!

I kinda wanna play this for our annual teachers talent night at the high school I work at.

amen

It's like he's using his bass to perform some kind of black magic, but it's the greatest thing ever.

Es increíble la capacidad de desafinar por completo el bajo y volverlo a afinar a la perfección sin necesidad de usar un afinador,ni siquiera usar los armónicos ni usar el quinto traste para afinar la siguiente cuerda!! Es para flipar...

amem senhor obrigado v w

I figured that out just by the fact that it was 2001 and he's wearing an FDNY hat. Words not always needed.

i shaved this morning. watched this. instant full beard.

Desculpe os demais , mais Wooten é de mais , que talento

Does anyone know the name of this song? thank you!

6 minutes in and then you'd know what it really meant to slap your Bass

5:52 Victor Wooten's subconscious.

Vic could beat on a broom and make it sound hip.

Flight of the Pigeon

Reminiscence

that explains the hat

A beautiful illustration of 9/11 through the bass guitar.

Totally thought you wrote "bottom" rather than "broom." Would have been both punny and true (hip bone for those who aren't "hip " with the crumby joke)!

That bass was never the same.....it had to go to support groups after that defiling.

at the 12 min mark victor gets a sour look on his face. it probably smelt terrible in that place cause i bet everyone in the audience shit themselves. that was unbelievable...

es la reencarnación de hendrix pero en el bajo!!! jajaj

and of course at 12:07 he just picks right back up where he left off. lol

This is called Waterfall

I love slap bass and I play a fair bit of that myself but when you make something as beautiful as this?? slapping just ruines the overall sound and experience.
