Cool vid! But that mic falling over... Ouch!
:shock:
I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...

That was great! I have to admit the Mike falling scared the hell out of me... after my bass's recent near decapatization.

Thanks, guys! And yes - a big round of applause to the mic for that strategically timed pratfall! Scene edited out: Me frantically looking over the headstock & neck to make sure the bass didn't get chipped. I'm happy to report no injuries. My 4001 gardian angel again earning his/her wings.

A little riddle for the OCD Yes fans: Besides the Beatles song, which riff is actually not a Squire line? (Hint: it IS a Yes song)

The Steve Howe guitar part from "Yours Is No Disgrace" including the little chime behind the bridge. Nicely done! :D
