Yes, I saw Bela Feck and the Flecktones in Columbia, SC at the flower garden Amphitheater in the Riverbanks Zoo a few summers ago...Absolutely gorgeous as the sun went down. Small crowd of a couple hundred.

 

 

Vic blew the house main breaker twice and the Sax kept the jam going acoustically while they replaced it on both occasions. Amazing musicians...the whole lot.

Patitucci doesn't really.."do it" for me, he can play like a mother, but I just have this distaste for his style

 

Saw Victor Wooten with Bela Fleck a few months ago. Bela was clearly a better musician than Victor, but Vic played some craise grooves. Show was tight, and I dug the drummer! One hand on the midi thing, other hand and leg on the kit

Not sure if that's a fair comment on a Bela Fleck show because I've been to 3 shows by them and of course Bela will get featured more than Victor or Vic's brother (why shouldn't he, it's his band;)). Try to catch an actual Victor Wooten concert and you'll see him rip it apart!!:p

Same here. Vic's playing just touches me. By contrast, Patitucci's just comes off as overly refined(for lack of a better expression) to me.

 

 

Combine Patitucci's style with the uber-technical style of Weckl and you have a rhythm section that is gonna be tight as a frogs asshole, but clinical and, for my tastes, a little sterile.
