Speaking of Victor Wooten, I know this came out before I got on the LD list, but Victor Wooten has a DVD out called "Live at Bass Day '98" where he uses a looper for a few songs--very cool show :) He doesn't go crazy with looping like some, but he does in fact use a looper, and it sounds pretty good imo :) Charlie On 11/27/06, aaron leese <aaronleese@hotmail.com> wrote: > > > > Yeah, the jam band scene is Kellers bread and butter .....
