The bass player on the Meyer/Weir gig looked familiar.  It took me a while of searching, but his name is Sean Hurley.  And he looked familiar because I've seen him in videos of Meyer posted here before; for instance with Meyer playing an Alembic Darling.  He's also an established session player with an extensive portfolio.

Yeah Dave, I didn't know of the Mayer connection until these videos went up. The gig I did w/ him was Alicia Keys backing band supporting a local kid w/ connections to SST in Hoboken where they all used to rehearse... I don't know if the facility recovered from hurricane Sandy... Last I heard they were only doing cartage in the city.....

Dave, I noticed another established (!) session guy in the vid from Irvine with the Darling:  The second drummer (your right, stage left), Jim Keltner !  Further down that YouTube page is a clip from 'Later with Jools Holland' where JM's playing a Wolf.

Listening to Matthew Sweet Altered Beast while doing some jewellery work and neck sanding on my new bass project (whee!) great album...Tony

Joey; yeah, Keltner's played on one or two things.
 
 

Speaking of Keltner, here's , featuring Keltner, Ry Cooder, Nick Lowe, and John Hiatt.

Ah hah! That makes sense that it was Keltner. He's awesome, although I've never seen him play live or even a video of him, despite decades of listening to his playing.

I have a friend who has the same Silvertone as John Hiatt in that video; such a nice guitar...some of those old Harmony's were so good, and the old Kay's too (I have one) but other models were poo...Tony.

Cool, Elwood - I confess I am only familiar with his newgrass stuff (if you're not, Youtube Strength In Numbers); this is another side altogether.
