Very cool. I'm just worried he's going to knock his own teeth out one day...

Mental but fab! Might have to get a pair of those shorts and see if they help me hit that vibe! :-) :-) :-)

I thought playing Killing Joke bass riffs on contrabassoon was fun (which I do at home when no-one's watching) but this looks even better still!

His body movements and sounds would fit perfectly in One flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest.

Can't stop laughing at this (not in a bad way). The guy has a super fast tongue, too!

Has anyone had a go at this yet? I would love a copy of the music for clarinet if anyone has been crazy enough to write it down? ;-)

I would love to play this, the only problem being that there's not much of an audience for it and i don't have any extra time in my life to devote to learning music i'm not going to perform... that sounds pretty sad but it's true. d

>> that sounds pretty sad but it's true. <<
I guess that depends. If you are happy playing music that happens to have more audience then it is good. If most of the music you are interested in playing happens to not have much audience, it's a choice of compromising what you're doing or the amount of audience. But not having a lot of audience doesn't necessarily mean you're not going to perform it. It all comes down to what you prefer to compromise, what you want to do or something else (e.g. amount of audience).

I love the clip of "Decapitated - Spheres of Madness." It's a fine example of suiting the performance to the repertory, too.
Usually I listen to classical music and go to classical concerts. I'd hate it quite a lot if someone playing Mozart dipped and swayed in his chair and then jumped up dancing. I'd think he was a clown and not in a good way.
But what if Caleb Canatheviphth had played "Decapitated" while seated sedately? And what if he'd played conservatively while dressed conservatively on a formal concert stage? That kind of performance would have decapitated the music -- among other things, emphasizing in a negative way how repetitive those two minutes and ten seconds really were. Instead, Canatheviphth performed the music he really had (not some abstract idea of how to perform music). He *used* the repetitiveness as part of the drama, as a dance of autistic exuberance. Loads of fun.
