  • Easiest halloween costume ever ^_^

  • I think that if every musical artist had to invent their own unique musical instrument, the world would be a much different place...

  • NEW STORY: Experimental solo artist Mike Silverman, better known as THAT 1 GUY, finds himself booked at a country-western bar. Read what happens at The Worst Gig (WorstGig.com).

  • @DaFunkyPrecedent

    You obviously don't know talent when you see it.

  • i'm blown away

  • That instrument looks like a bong. for serious. Also, AWESOME.

    

  • Dude, this guy should be famous! I've NEVER seen anything like this...

  • @holdenc96 He is famous, silly. I've seen him 3 times all over the Midwest.. I believe his song "buttmachine" was also on a Weeds' episode forever ago

  • i think he should hook up with trent reznor and make some songs together...

  • Roommate: Dude, where'd my coffee maker go?

    That 1 Guy: I hollowed it out, put some pickups in it, made an instrument :)

    Roommate: I hate you...

  • I've seen him quite a few times, and it never ceases to be amazing!!!

  • awsome @ all good !

  • this guy can probably play a toaster, a couch, a trash can, a wooden plank, and possibly an ants nest.

  • Saw him in kalamazoo awhile ago

    and i shitted bricks

  • his tone reminds me of trent reznor's... this guys fuckin awesome, so original... saw him at a buckethead show... those 2 together? = was blooown away

  • EFF BABY !!!!

  • Awsome not sediment

  • what the hell is he playin.never seen nothin like that.wanna see this dude live

  • @metallicaguy1234 live show is effen great, and he's a nice guy. You can actually talk to him after the show.

  • And on the 8 billionth day, the Lord created..

  • it was pure stupidity when I promised my son one of these..

  • holy shit....!!! :)

  • Seeing him tomorrow night Oh god yes fuck wow amg

  • The absolute only thing that could make this any better is Les Claypool Playing Bass, and Buckethead playing Electric, or even a BANJO!!! Going to see him in a couple days after a fun-filled day of drinking at the St. Patty's day parade!

  • my brain almost exploded...

  • The True artist, not the overwhelming musical mimicry of today's supermarket back-round music. Originality, thank heaven it still exists. This genius expresses from nowhere else but the temple of the mind. He's zoned into the royal road and brings us along with him. Totally cool, my mind is still flashing and I've only had coffee.

  • This is great! Come to russia! Russian millioners will pay thusands of dollars to see that!

  • Fricken amazing I saw him at blue-skies this summer....wow!

  • wow most original shit i've heard in a long time, loove it.

  • legendary

  • Comment removed

  • that man has a brain in each limb.

  • that man has a brain in each limb.

  • If the CD ever skips at That 1 Guy's show, it will be on purpose.

  • @dcofosho224. Let's assume for a minute there is no sarcasm in your post (if there is, ignore the following comment). What art are you talking about? The tortured modern crap that a 6 year old could conjure, I assume? If so, then your comment rings true. If you were talking about proper art - put down the crayons, you could hurt someone.

  • @neversaidnever76

    Oh, my. You ARE an erudite gentleman, aren't you. Please do tell us more of this "proper art". I am simply dizzy with anticipation!

  • too cool! we saw this guy at the world fest last summer , blew my mind ive never seen anything like this , too cool!

  • This guy is awsome. I suspect a possible Zappa or Beefheart influence here.

  • 7 people don't know the moon is made of cheese

  • 7 people don't know the moon ismade of cheese

  • this man is an artist if ive ever seen one...

  • His musical talent must be tremendous, clever lyrics, and creative style, love it.

  • This guy has the secret to life haha... meaningless lyrics and an amazing home made instrument.. and he makes money out of it. shit yeah (-:

  • @MusicalHoneyBe meaningless? you dont listen to him that much do ya?

  • @spraydose187 excuse me?? pretty sure the moon is disgusting isnt exactly the best advice given in music. as a matter of fact im a music junkee and i play a hell of a lot my self. meaningfull lyrics are those such as love for a child by jason mraz and hollywood by angus and julia stone. not saying i dont like this performer, i think he is amazing and has a very different style, but i chose my music for the meaning portrayed in the songs and lyrics and i just dont understnad the story within this

  • this was on my birthday =)

  • How the fuck could you not ejnoy this shit!?!?!?

  • im going to see him on march 9th in burlington vt and its going to be fucking sweet

  • i am so digging this right now. that pipe instrument is nuts!

  • I bet his parents REALLY are proud!

  • this is like something out of Dr Seuss

  • This version is waaaaay way better than the version he had featured in his promo.

  • CANT........STOP.........WATCH­ING!!!!!! :D

  • amazing.

  • I'm going to go see him next month, and I can't wait!! :D

  • Talk about your solos... =P

  • JAZZ ROLLED

  • This... is... amazing...

  • So...its the bastard child of a drum set, guitar, theramin, mixer board, and cowbell...My god, and the beard only makes it better.

  • @Retrograyed thers sum of a cello in there as well lol

  • This was really cool, but the constant PINK PINK PINK noise finally drove me crazy.

  • Awesome! The world will be a better place some day if people like this 1 guy keep

    pushing the boundaries of art and music, re-inventing conventional styles and instruments, and exploring new territories..........ROCK ON!!!

  • I saw this 1 guy live yesterdat, most impressive thing ever :o

  • this dude is fukn sick, absolute genius.

  • first time I ever saw this guy, was at a experimental music fest.. everyone there sucked soooooooo bad, and I was gonna leave. but then this 1 guy came on stage with this magic pipe, and I was like, I gotta stay to see this... one of my favorite artists... this guy is bad ass!

  • @Jakeak74 CANT FUCKING WAIT!!!!!!!!!

  • i thought the moon was hollow

  • @picklesmcgoo You were mistaken. :D

  • Omfg, I'm in LOVE with this guy now. This is the first song I've heard from him and I'm definitely checking him out. AMAZING!

  • Funny Music :]

  • i saw him live with buckethead a year or so ago, he threw it down! 

  • i would love to download some of his live stuff but i can only find studio versions....can anybody help me???

  • david lynch, trent reznor, johnny depp, one in the same???

  • That 1 Genius.

  • I saw him live and I have been to countless shows and I can safely say... this guy is the greatest show I have ever seen! He radiates ingenuity and class.

  • Hes awesome 

  • Dude at World Fest he did not have his instrument because they held it at Customs at the airport. I think that was just wrong. He still performed with a stand up bass he borrowed and he was awesome. I never heard weather he got his instrument back.

  • He played this at blissfest. I thought I was in the matrix

  • I saw him last night at Blissfest. Unreal. So talented, and so entertaining.

    Sincerely,

    A New Fan

  • Love this 1 guy! This song reminds me of manson.... something something shes so hard to please. Its been driving me crazy! Am I way off? Anyone else get that?

  • i was talking and hanging with him after his show at woodford one year and asked him if he had a thing against cheese and he goes 'aw nah man i LOVE cheese. you know? the mouldier the better, i love blue cheese and really soft stuff like camenbere' in his san frisco accent

  • look up to the moon. whistle up a tune. keep it to yourself but say no lie... i love this song...

  • if i made a movie, my soundtrack would consist of only primus and that1guy songs

  • @SkylarrL I think I would really like that movie. (So when you've made it, let me know, K? ^^)

  • makes me think of manson mixed with Richard cheese

  • I think it'd be better if the percussion wasn't so loud.

  • where can i download this song?!?!

  • This might be the most insane thing I has eva seen in my short little life.

  • I'm goin to see this dude tonight in Bellingham.

  • he gets so into it, man. you can tell he fucking LOVES what he does.

  • ...i am lost for words man, for once i am speechless on how...amazing this guy is!

  • Im in awe of anyone who can invent a new instrument.

  • shy did I think of Marilyn Manson. Is it his voice?? :O nice

  • Love this guy......honey taste sweeter when you anger the bees....

  • That1guy DID invent the Magic Pipe from scratch AND, just for the record, the Magic Pipe existed before the wammola by at least three years. They are VERY different instruments. Also, Les did not invent the Wammola. An instrument builder in Burlington VT invented it, built it, and gave it to Les. Les plays the shit out of it and has made that instrument famous. Apples and Oranges...

  • i saw him with buckethead a couple years ago and no one knew what to expect. needless to say, we were all blown away. and after buckethead's set he played another hour and half WITH buckethead. what an amazing show

  • Magnifique... j'aurais beau essayer de faire pareil sur les gouttières sa rendra jamais aussi bien *-*

    C'est trop géniiiial je suis fan !

  • Soooooo Hardcore....

    From what i heard it's his most "metal" song.

    All his songs are awesome but this one has the little "touch" that makes me hypnotised.

  • awesome! :D

  • Thank you friends!!

  • Comment removed

  • I love what this guy does. Brilliant.

  • Great

  • He totally ended that with a quote of tenor madness. . .AWESOME!!!

  • this is fuckin ART man goddamn. he makes me feel inadequate as a musician because i dont invent and build my instruments from scratch lol.

  • don't worry, we all feel that way.

  • @dcofosho224 he didn't exactly invent it from scratch it's just a whamola with some extra shit added to it... it's an elaboration of an instrument invented by les claypool... and even the whamola is just an electric standup bass with a single string and a whammy bar... not to take away from what this dude is doing.. he's awesome.. but don't be so hard on yourself originality is just elaborated copying ;)

  • @monkeylunchbreak you sure claypool invited the whamola? im not sure that he did

  • @gtochad it would be a good exercise to find out for sure who did I guess, but in any case even if he didn't it still serves to prove my point. Originality is just embellishing what others that came before left us with. Everything is just a development of something else that already exists. So it's silly to get down on ourselves and feel like these people are so "above" us when really they haven't done anything we ourselves are not capable of. Get off the couch and go create something. ;)

  • @dcofosho224 You can spit on a piece of paper and call it "art." Then you'll have pseudo intellectual art majors drooling over it analyzing it like it actually means something.

  • Wow! That One Guy is aewsome. One of the most original performances I've ever seen. Can't wait to see him live!

  • idk what that is but i want to learn how to play it

  • That is just so original. That's insane.

  • That is the weirdest but coolest instrument I've ever seen.

  • The truth hurts, eh?

  • Dunno what the fuck your problem is.

    I enjoyed it.

  • so are you saying that custom building your own instrument and learning to play the shit out of it isnt creative? id like to see you give that thing a try.. i know i certainly wouldnt be any good..

  • @NetScourge

    You're only half right. If you know anything about music you can break the machine down and, yes, it is quite simple. A looping peddle hooked up somehow and a couple bass strings on pvc piping with some buttons that he can push to achieve a specific sound. To top that off he has a kick drum, a symbol, and a stomp box. I am sure I am missing some things but you get the idea...

    WAIT, that's not simple at all...

    Jackass. Know what you're talking about or you just sound like an idiot!

  • lol

  • I'd pay for sex with that pole, its god damn amzaing!..btw...I've so not been obsesivly listening to That 1 guy for about a week now.....

  • ahah he's a genius.

  • the most intersesting live performance i've ever seen.....mind blowing

  • Cool vid, discovered him on Devildriver surfing on youtube lol. He would really be loved here in New Orleans. Sweet clip and i'm def showin' this to other people. I thought it was a band! lol

  • cuz its fresh and famillure VTPPGLVR , if you can dig it. CAN U DIGG IT?!

  • Dude, WHY IS HE SOO ADDICTING?? (^•^)

  • It's a unique and wonderful sound that's hard to recreate, that's why.

  • @VTPPGLVR that's what I wanna know! :D

  • @VTPPGLVR It's all in that damn sexy hat!

  • @13JULEZ13 Nope. Its under the hat!
