    Default Wooten brothers shred battle...

    Apparently, Victor's brother Reggie taught him all about tapping.
    Pretty cool stuff eh?




    And here's a piece just with Regi by himself, showing his skills and eloquence:
    The Law of Gravity is nonsense. No such law exists. If I think I float, and you think I float, then it happens.

    I'd love to hang out at a Wooten family gathering. As staggering as Victor's talent is, he states all the time in interviews that he thinks his brothers are all better musicians than he is. Good videos Robert.

    Hot D@mn Robert!!!

    I was just about to dig up some Reggie "Teach" Wooten. I saw Vic paly in a small club with Teach and another brother Josef (no Futureman unfortunately) & Teach was fantastic as was Vic.

    Reggie was the oldest and got all the bros into music. He taught them so that they would have a band. He still teaches music.

    Is it not kinda cheating using the bands around the neck to mute the strings?

    I've seen Jennifer Batten do the same thing, I'd imagine there's a few more that do it in the studio. I'll have to have a look through my wife's hair accessories and give it a go!
