KANSAS Live 2011 Red Rocks Amphitheatre - Magnum Opus and Point of Know Return video free download
From my garage to Billy's house to Red Rocks - June 8, 2011 Jethro Tull with special guest Kansas. This HD video focuses on the Kansas bass player and front man Billy Greer because he's playing the solid zebrawood 4 string custom bass guitar I made for him. I shot this with a Nikon 5100 DSLR. My camera work is not best but the amount of fun I had that night makes up for it! Plus, he gives me a cool nod of recognition at 4:55.

Thanks! Before my bass Billy was playing a black Fender Custom Shop short scale. I see it from time to time in the background as his backup now.11 years ago

I just saw them the other night in Englewood, NJ and he's still playing the bass. My wife was asking me what it was and my best guess was a Fender Custom Shop. Congrats to you.11 years ago

This is the only bass of mine he has and he's been using it in shows pretty much exclusivly since May 2011. It's never been used in a DVD.11 years ago

Phil Ehart's drum tech ~ Eric Holmquist gets a lot of face and head-bob time on this one. Bet he loves it.12 years ago

@davidroygaines I mean Robby wasn't bad, but he's more of a frontman/ singer that can play violin. David is a true violinist. He takes the violin very seriously. And he's not to shabby of a guitarist either! He nails the rhythm parts on Carry On Wayward Son very well! I can't imagine Kansas without a violinist let alone accept that they toured for about 6 years without one!! Rags didn't come into the picture until 1991.12 years ago

@davidroygaines Besides Kerry Livgren's songwriting, David Ragsdale coming to the band was the best thing to ever happen to Kansas.12 years ago

So you made that bass and Billy Greer of Kansas is playing it live, and you're there recording it from the front row? Epic win, dude! That's got to be one of the best rock fan stories ever.12 years ago

David ragsdale is quite possibly the best violinist in the world.12 years ago
