F...you Brownsgold...Dave carries the band...How can you say they carry him? They are very good...but also VERY lucky to be with such a TALENT...Nothing with out him....
@DRBROWNSOFFICE its a 1999 version of the taylor 914ce....the fretboard design isn't customized....its called the cindy inlay and it is only on the 1999 models....the only thing about how guitar thats customized is the electronics
@TheGroogrux34 why ya gotta get all theological over a song comment? no i didnt mean god, i meant spoon, like the kid in matrix said... there is no spoon. i.e. its all in your head, the spoon and the power to bend it. But Dave resides elsewhere... i.e. the unbendable land of reality. Sooo.... to end this extra long explanation of what i thought was self explanitory,... There is no spoon, but there sure as shit is a Dave F$#king Matthews.
that is a northface shirt he is wearing and some levis. he gets his hair cut at super cuts and uses cuticale scissors to cut his nails as apposed to clippers. he has acuvue contacts in and vans on for sneakers. the stage is made out of wood. that should end the pissing contest. tools.
saw this live at fenway about a month ago. had to be one of the most amazing thigns i've ever seen (the show in general). i didnt know how i would feel about this song without the band coming in but holy shit that was an amazing version.
They played this last night in Saint Louis and it was incredible, during the last verse they went into Stairway to Heaven and then back into Watchtower. AMAZING!
hahaha you try to make yourself sound smart by making someone else look stupid..but you get pwned!!!! dumbass, get your info right before you try to talk shit
oh because you knew the exact model of what guitar dave uses?
i picked the taylor. i picked 914. i pointed out the cutaway, and i obviously knew it was electric. how was i supposed to know that he installed his own pickups? why is it every other dave video that has some conversation about his guitar has someone mentioning it as a 914ce? was i wrong to assume it was an electric acoustic, seeing as there is a chord protruding from the body of the guitar? i think i justified myself.
i don't want to waste our time going back and forth on the merits of both versions. When its all said and done, It's just gonna boil down to personal preference.
As good as Dave's version is it still comes at me as a cover. Jimi made this song his own not only with his virtuoso abilities but with his larger than life personality.
i don't know... i listened to them again, back to back. Its close but i still like Jimi's better. If Jimi Hendrix had never existed then Dave would he the better version.
Yeah, but if Jimi never existed this version would probably not be as good. Like I said, I LOVE both versions but this one just does it for me more. Especially when he does it with the band. Cause it's got the soft side and the heavy side.
I mean, I love both versions, but you can't really compare them because they sound so different. Dave's version is more folksy (couldn't think of another word) and Jimi's is more like... rock. Either way, they're both awesome versions of this song.
Folksy?? Youre right, you couldnt think of any other words. Bc thats far from an accurate description of Daves version of Watchtower. Dylans (the original) is the "folksy" version.
Dude, you're right. Dylan's version is definately the most "folksy" of the three. But, I really can't think of another word to describe Dave's version because Dave is so unique. It's all good though, because they're all good.
He is absolutely up there with The Beatles, in my humble 25 yr old opinion. His song writing is phenominal, voice is stunning, guitar playing is mind blowing, and his lyrics move almost anyone who hears them.
Every band i like has like 1 or 2 songs i don't really like. but how is it that EVERY SINGLE ONE of Dave's songs give me chills?? he is simply the epitome of awesome!
when he nails that note live with the band I feel like I'm listening to Rocky music and could kick friggin ass... I mean that in a nice way, I guess. It's awesome, OK?!

thank you bob for writing this song. thank you dave for blessing us with your rendition. someday i wish to be an inspiration to someone as they are to me
Hell yea, does Dave still do those acoustic sessions as well? Don't get me wrong the group is fucking amazing, but Dave solo or with Tim is something special, something that is truly life changing.
just the 914c... not the ce (the 'ce' stands for cutaway electric) he just has the regular cutaway.. although you are correct about the fishman electronics.. he added the pickups on so he could plug in
Does anyone have any idea why dave plays with his pinky and first fingers what most people would play with their first and ring fingers? For example 5X7XXX, 3X5XXX, 1X3XXX where the 7 then 5 then 3 are all played with the pinky. I wonder if he started playing at such a young age that that's the only fingers he could reach to play power chords with.
I see what you're saying but it's just odd because you can really do the same thing with the first and ring finger if you just lift your whole hand up.
it's probably just a force of habit. he seems to use it any time he's playing only holding down two notes. it's also a good way to strengthen your pinky
plus if you hold the power chord you would have 577XXX.. best guess he just lifted his ring finger to help with the muting.. honestly it is a hell of a lot more comfortable to play it his way..
just one more testament to his utter mastery of his own artistry. Dave can do alot of great things musically, but he's the best at being himself...fuckin' sick shit right here, i tell you.
5th fret, 6th (low E) string + 7th fret, 4th (D) string-->A; 3rd fret, 6th string + 5th fret, 4th string-->G; 1st fret, 6th string + 3rd fret, 4th string-->F. then he plays, A minor, G (open position), F (closed position), then G again. mess around with it and try to play with the recording. you'll get it.
It's really, really good how he can bring so much love in this song... He's a really great amazing awesome Guitarplayer and singer... It's an absolutely other version as the Dylan or Hendrix's versions... So beautyful...
galopmacho we all no jimi was the best guitarist who cares i admire him for that being a guitarist myself but his cover was terrible because lik it or not u need to sing in music and he sucked dick at that.. dave rocks this
yes yes, i'm the idiot. cuz i hate it when people rape good songs. i mean you can try... and there are always a bunch of idiots who can't play a single instrument who think ur tha bomb.
but face reality dude... it's not because you can't play the guitar that this is a good cover.
Why all the hate??? If ya don't like it then don't listen to it.... When Jimi did the cover everyone said that it sucked too at first. This isn't Bob or Jimi, it is Dave and it is his song his version.... don't hate life is too short for that
you know, i don't think he's trying to prove anything other than the fact that he likes the song and that he made his own rendition of it.
this is DEFINITELY a very easy song to play. Am, G, F, G over and over. but ol' davey boy definitely has come up with really tough rhythm parts. this tune is certainly not one of them
do you guys even know what ur talking about? very easy song to play? have ever heard the jimi version? this isn't supposed to be a chord song. and this guy just rapes it, and even get's credit for it. if he want's to play music, he needs to digg into another style, cuz i hate it when people f*ck up songs. and i'm not a hater, i just can't comprehend people who love this. it's like loving rnb, i don't get that either.
i meant this version is really easy to play. it's just 3 chords. and when i said dave has come up with tough rhythm parts, i meant he's made tough rhythm parts in other songs.
the original version was also only 3 chords: C#m, B, A. jimi's version was really good. it's based around five chords, but jimi's soloing over it for most of the song.
yes, jimi's version is better. no is saying that it isn't. and i don't think it's possible to be better than the guy who orginally wrote it, so bob's is better than jimi's or dave's.
How can you say that it's not supposed to be a chord song? Have you ever heard of a guy named Bob Dylan? He kinda wrote it and it is very much a chord song. Jimi's the one who changed it and stole the credit. Kinda like how everyone thinks that GNR wrote Knockin on Heaven's Door. I also think that the only good version he did was Central Park in 2003. Saying things about how he "raped it" is all opinion and nothing more. Remember, Jimi's was NOTHING like the original either.
Only retards think Gnr made knocking on heavens door and only retards thinks Dylans Watchtower Is Better than Jimis! JIMI IS THE BEST! then Bob, and third Dave
He is recognized by professors, musicions, other artists as one of the best rythme guitarists and vocalist. His live performances sound better then his album, his not fake like 99% of the shit thats out there now. So before you think you know anything about music, just cuz he changed a song by a great artist into a great song, and you didnt like it, shows how ignorant you are. You dont know what talent is, you only know what your told.
Fabulously done...and the motiff is grand.....candles & and a good howling<3

It's really, really good how he can bring so much love in this song... He's a really great amazing awesome Guitarplayer and singer... It's an absolutely other version as the Dylan or Hendrix's versions... So beautyful...

this is absouletly brillant. the fact the he takes a song that can only sound good with a band and turns it into that. only dave.

Seriously, I am not trying to be mean but...you really are an idiot

yes yes, i'm the idiot. cuz i hate it when people rape good songs. i mean you can try... and there are always a bunch of idiots who can't play a single instrument who think ur tha bomb.
but face reality dude... it's not because you can't play the guitar that this is a good cover.
this cover stinks, nice try...

Why all the hate??? If ya don't like it then don't listen to it.... When Jimi did the cover everyone said that it sucked too at first. This isn't Bob or Jimi, it is Dave and it is his song his version.... don't hate life is too short for that

you know, i don't think he's trying to prove anything other than the fact that he likes the song and that he made his own rendition of it.
this is DEFINITELY a very easy song to play. Am, G, F, G over and over. but ol' davey boy definitely has come up with really tough rhythm parts. this tune is certainly not one of them

do you guys even know what ur talking about? very easy song to play? have ever heard the jimi version? this isn't supposed to be a chord song. and this guy just rapes it, and even get's credit for it. if he want's to play music, he needs to digg into another style, cuz i hate it when people f*ck up songs. and i'm not a hater, i just can't comprehend people who love this. it's like loving rnb, i don't get that either.

i meant this version is really easy to play. it's just 3 chords. and when i said dave has come up with tough rhythm parts, i meant he's made tough rhythm parts in other songs.
the original version was also only 3 chords: C#m, B, A. jimi's version was really good. it's based around five chords, but jimi's soloing over it for most of the song.
es1019 4 years ago
yes, jimi's version is better. no is saying that it isn't. and i don't think it's possible to be better than the guy who orginally wrote it, so bob's is better than jimi's or dave's.

How can you say that it's not supposed to be a chord song? Have you ever heard of a guy named Bob Dylan? He kinda wrote it and it is very much a chord song. Jimi's the one who changed it and stole the credit. Kinda like how everyone thinks that GNR wrote Knockin on Heaven's Door. I also think that the only good version he did was Central Park in 2003. Saying things about how he "raped it" is all opinion and nothing more. Remember, Jimi's was NOTHING like the original either.

He is recognized by professors, musicions, other artists as one of the best rythme guitarists and vocalist. His live performances sound better then his album, his not fake like 99% of the shit thats out there now. So before you think you know anything about music, just cuz he changed a song by a great artist into a great song, and you didnt like it, shows how ignorant you are. You dont know what talent is, you only know what your told.
