Blue veins - The Raconteurs

[WizLaudan73]

Fuckin great!

[CrispyChris70]

That is an ebow

[mychemicalroman]

anyone can tell me. what Brendan Benson is using for playing the guitar????????? what kind of device is that?

[dominickjohn3]

@mychemicalroman It's an EBow. It creates feedback but in a controlled way to be melodically instead of just pure chaos. Even though chaotic feedback is nice as well :)

[dlein93]

The Raconteurs on Austin City Limits? My day just got soo much better.

[dazednconfused41]

The intro makes me want an eBow sooo bad...

[kingofthemods77]

Shivers all throughout

[islaeve100]

chills down my spine.

[sticknatural]

O man...guitar solo, makes me feel the most beautiful things from deep inside...hail for the blue veins!!!

[LukosJr]

0 people is stupid... - nice ;)

[zeppelin654321]

Instant chills down my spine when Jack went into the solo

[MrROLY1973]

I see em live at Glastonbury 2008 and they played this as their last song I think, it blew my mind its got subtle hints of all his influences can be heard in this song absolutely brilliant go on Jack !

[brutonello92]

oh my god, holy crap, I can't even

[SirJalea]

Every time i listening to a live perfomance from the raconteurs i end with a need video in my list of favourites :D

[RabidityRabbit]

this colud be the daze and confused

[whillop]

@RabidityRabbit I was thinkin' "Since I've Been Lovin' You" but either way , IT'S FUCKIN' BALLS ON !

[luizfmaf]

To me this song is Jack White, 100%. And it's the greatest Raconteurs song in live performances.

[MrROLY1973]

@luizfmaf

I agree blew me away when I see em at Glastonbury and they played this just amazing !!!

[jacobcruzer22]

my favorite part is between 0:00 and 7:40

[juankamilo]

0 dislikes very nice!

[TheVictimsX]

that was before Jack turned that Guitar into a double cut and put a harmonica mic in it

[BradleyCraig69]

Lots lots like Zeplin! But cool :)

[TheSchoolsux345]

coolest sounding drums ever

[darthesgoobis123]

i think.... i think i just shat myself

[Lucifersteapot]

I can't for the life of me find out the name of what Brendan's using on his guitar at the beginning. Anybody able to tell me?

[gjghgdt]

@Lucifersteapot its called an E-BOW

[Lucifersteapot]

@gjghgdt Thanks! I managed to find it, but couldn't manage to find my way back to this video to correct myself.

[Joetehpsycho]

@Steven23CrazyBassist

Custom Triple Jet.

[16unknownartist]

Did anyone else notice at 4:16 he said ''a little red head smiling and telling me it's gonna be alright'' instead of ''you smiling back at me and saying everything's ok''?

This proves this song is about his wife.

[amanogingi01]

@16unknownartist He properly changes every song about women to "redhead" now. Look at The White Stripes' cover of Lord Send Me An Angel. Live, he adds line with reference to red headed women, and the album version of 300mph torrential outpour blues. Now, I'm also sure it's about his wife, but the red headed thing doesn't really work.

[TheSchoolsux345]

hey that was before he made his guitar a double cutaway

[TheSchoolsux345]

hey that was before he made his guitar a double cutaway

[pumpkindarkhammer]

[ineednewcymbals]

[9540525]

[2unholy]

@ goblinob Its a "rockdoc" titled It Might Get Loud.

[goblinob]

i know, ive seen the movie but just thought it was from a recorded live performance

[goblinob]

where the video of this song where jack cuts his hand and bleeds all over his guitar when hes soloing?

[The3rdMugician]

@goblinob Iv also looked for it. I believe it was filmed for the movie. In other words. There was a crew there for one of the racs shows and in jacks style when all eyes were on him he did somethin fuckin ausome

[Unknownabe]

i can't stop listening to this........

[shigureseditor]

It blows my mind every time I watch this song performed. Absolutely incredible.

[Graydonmf]

[80XY]

Hey.. i was wondering if they recorded this set or anything like it that i could get my eager hands on.

Thanks in advance. x

[ChelseaAnn88]

I have not heard such great jamming for a long while. so good

[solveig1759]

Thank you for posting this set. I've seen them twice and they really are just the most exciting live band around at the moment.

[obiez]

Correction it's a EBOW, it uses magnetic fields to pull the strings and create a sound similar to that of a BOW on string intruments.

[helterskelter315]

Does anyone know what benson is using in his right hand during this song?

[walidb123]

woh.

fuckin amazing...

[DenialTwister]
