Marcelo Lopez Schneider fake bassist controversy, Sapko getting his YT shut down

I watched Sapko's follow up video last night. It was hilarious. That is one funny little dude right there. Mr. Schneider and his band are in full damage control mode now and the backlash appears to be building. For all intents and purposes his career and being seen as an unparalleled bassist, is over.
Well, he already has a head start at being a mime. And if he thought bass players never get laid.....
 
Miming fake bullshit in a video is gay as hell


Doing it "live" is a whole new level of faggotry

The funniest part to me is the video of him doing a bass clinic where you can literally see the cubase project up with the tracks ROFL

There isn't even a question that this dude is guilty as fuck lol
 
Funny stuff. But who even wants to play like that? I guess the people who paid money to attend his clinics. Music that sounds like uncontrollable bowel movements seem to be the hotness these days.

I only know this guy from what has been posted in this thread. Did he sell clinics? I wonder how he pulled that off in front of real bass players?

No idea, but the instagram videos were getting attention from artists who have actual skills. I just don't understand how the dude thought he wasn't gonna be found out though I suppose if it hadn't gone as viral as it did he probably could've flown under the radar. People are calling him midi vanilli, lol. In a way it seems to be kind of the same basic story.
 
Yeah he did. Davie504 also covered it and mentions the clinics.



Thanks. It's one thing to cherry pick a 30 second clip for IG, another to fool an audience who wants to be entertained, but that would be a hard sell to fool and answer questions / demo parts in front of real players

It's nothing new, unfortunately. Meet Nick Jonas.


I've also seen Orianthi do the same guitar mime stuff. I suspect it's more common than any of us are aware tbh.

I imagined he he TIGHTLY controls those clinics to get away with this - but I mean Jesus man you can SEE THE DAW running during his clinic
 
I will say though… I have no fucking idea who these people are anyway and would never listen to their shit “music” to begin with. So I kind of feel like the people being duped here are like people that get duped by televangelists or psychics. The victims here have to be at least partly to blame.
