Here's Trip and his Orion 5-string fretless:
 

 
If you ever get a chance to see him play, no doubt you will leave inspired.

That's the attitude!
Alas, I think I will feel some frustration too!

 
 
Recently saw Trip in Denver.  I don't know if he gets tired of the adjective awesome but it describes his performance and attitude to a T.
 
If you are out there, thanks again Trip!

apdavis from Denver I see. I am sitting at Broadway and C470 right now!

Where is that Denver photo taken? I am sorry I missed his appearance.

Trip sent me this picture from the LODO bass bash Tripster clinic
 

 
Don't miss a chance to see him live.

I borrowed without asking, the photo I posted from the Lodo bass bash, but Mica's contribution is better.
I had understood the scheduled clinics for the Bass Bash were to be Friday(4th) and Saturday(5th), with Trip playing Saturday night.  It turns out he played Friday and Saturday night with a clinic on Sunday, which I had missed having made other plans.
Spit and other dirty words on that one. . .

Yeah Trip is phenominal. Great guy too.

That is a really big bass.  Anybody know if it is strung B-Bb or F#-C?

Trip is known for using alternate tuning. He may keep it in a standard setup, until his soul is moved to explore something new.

I saw trip last year at bass day uk. He was indeed a phenomenal player and very friendly with it. Unfortunatly, He wasn't able to bring his Alembic last year - maybe this time. He certainly got enough encouragement from the three Edinburgh Alembicians who went.

Trip will be at the Atlanta Institute of Music tomorrow night at 8:00 for a clinic, private lessons are from 3-7:00.

Lucky Georgians!!!
