    I've been on this planet for nearing 40 years and, to this day, I've never understood it when people have said that it's the bass player that gets all the chicks. (I've always felt like it should probably be the lead guitarist, if anything.) While enjoying this fine performance -- somewhere around the mid-point of Second Dinner to be specific -- something clicked with me, and I feel like I finally understand. Thank you, Donny Benét! (For this and other things.)
    P.S. This comment is honestly not intended to be ironically humorous (and shame on you if you thought otherwise!); this is my sincere account of some kind of legitimate enlightenment that I believe I just experienced.

    This guy is awesome. It's like he's a parody of bad 80s disco towards the end of its era, BUT its somewhat fantastic & cool at the same time.
    But Donny's right, slap bass IS the sound the kids want to hear 👍

    Connected my iPhone 📱 to the Bluetooth of my Maserati and cruised down Pacific Coast Highway from Seal Beach to Laguna Beach blasting this video in my Harmon Kardon Soundsystem and stopped at the Beach Parking to enjoy the rest of the video and the waves of the ocean 🌊 then went to my 2nd Dinner in Laguna Beach 🏖

    Loved the show Donny! Can't wait to hopefully see in you and the band in person someday. Thanks for the encouragement that we can all be Mr. Experience, and we can all love ourselves and find that security! You're a gem!
