Chris is one of the few people who can say "we'll figure it out, it's gonna be fine" and then it actually turns out fine (or much better than just fine in this case). This performance is pure magic, all of them are incredible

The "bass player" is Mike Elizondo, who has produced for people such as Dr. Dre. He's a musical beast in his own right. Fiddle tunes are not his home court and he knew to sit out, but he can stand shoulder to shoulder with Thile, Eldridge, and Kittel, which is saying a *lot*. Watch more of the LFH canon, including where Elizondo channels Jaco Pastorius . kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eaiieM1zxtnPY2g.html. He won't be "the bass player" any more.

There are fiddle tunes, and there are songs. Then there are some melodies that are both fiddle tunes and songs, like the ones you mentioned. Though those are mostly the exception. I'm sure Chris Thile made his statement out of simplicity's sake to give the audience the gist of what they were looking for.
