Weir noted that Gordon “realized that John Mayer has literally never played a non-pentatonic scale in his life” and that Oteil Burbridge needed a “Big paycheck cause the ABB is done and he’s sick of splitting gig money 25 ways with the other guys in the Susan trucks band.”
Although I wasn’t familiar with him before, Oteil sounds like a real bass player. Phil is a low register guitar player (who I love in the context of the Dead). And Oteil seems to sing Dead songs pretty well:
WHY ISNT PHIL DOING THIS?????
There are literal tears falling from my eyes. I’m legit crying.
Or is he bc I barely read the article sorry
PAY ATTENTION
IM SO SO SO SAD RIGHT NOW
I JUST COMPLAINED TO MY SISTER AND SHE ROLLED HER EYES
MY FEELINGS ARE VALID: JOHN MAYER S U X
Can we all agree that Oteil is a good choice?
It is racist to assume he will be good at the bass guitar.
