[elpollano]

[1001ace]

[k14ce2002]

@1001ace

Yes, this was about year ago. Way before it was titled.

[gauthierd]

only 10 days!

[DedHedJosh]

very kottke like at the start

[MzdaSPEED6]

soundsss sooo fantastic and soothing

[Pyrofreak321]

woot new album soon

[k14ce2002]

This was at a very small bar called just outside of San Antonio. I think maybe only 50-75 people were there. It wasn't promoted very well.

[johhnalexander]

where was this at?

[lordolah]

Totally awesome! My feeble mind can't comprehend the sheer greatness of Andy McKee. Gonna love his new cd for sure.

[k14ce2002]

Exactly! Some people suck.

[rossybossi]

This would be even better if a drunk guy wasn't yelling in the background

[tylerdwells]

that is a HUGE guitar.

[fspoxee]

Andy is not just that big, as u think:)

[shwadinger]

it is a little big for a guitar, but really, Andy is a little shorter than you or I would've expected. I think his height means his talent gets concentrated.

[RicardoBatistaPassos]

hehehehe andy is a small guy too, so all guitars, specially Jumbo ones looks gigantic with him hehehe, this guy changed my mind toward music man... same feeling i had when i first listened to Rage Against The Machine, i feel glad that there are amazing people like him in the world, where the music seems all decadent there's always saviors o/

Power to Andy Mckee

[k14ce2002]

Thanks for the update!

[shanehennessyguitar]

ah he said last night that he's going to call this one "Joyland" and that his album is probably going to be called the same

[comface]

I wish he was as good a songwriter as he is a guitarist.

[alex0589]

(2) he looked at me like i told him i was going to die the next day and said "oh crap...well...come with me, ill go get a guitar at a random stand and ill play you a song!"

he played "drifting" in front of 15-20 people and he dedicated it to me.

hes just great, simple and extremly talented.

[Tubember]

Now that's dedication to fans. I'll bet you couldn't have been happier.

[alex0589]

last summer, in montreal, i wanted to go see Andy Mckee live with don ross but it was sold out so i went to the meet and greet he was doing in the after noon at the simm (google it).

i waited till there wasnt anyone with him and went to tell him that i had discovered him on youtube, that he really inspired me but that i couldnt go to the show.

[DruHayes]

absolutely amazing.

[k14ce2002]

Glad you liked it! I can't wait for the album to come out!

[staffansvahn]

He truly is In a class of his own!

Thank you for posting this pearl.

Best regards

Staffan

[maratmasry]

Wow can someone PLEASE tell me when the new album will be coming out!!

[ConferAll]

I've heard that it's supposed to be due for fall '09. Really looking forward to this one.

[Xtrovert4]

Early next year he said last night when i Saw him live :D

[shizueleven]

I am so, so, so, so.. so so so SOOO going to buy his album.

[whouston33wh]

I saw him play this live too. Its such a great song

[spearfysh]

Imagine Andy sitting in the middle of an old amusement park, hunched over his guitar at dusk, playing this tune ......how long would it be before people start look over the fence curious to see where the sound is coming from and wander in forming a silent memorised crowd?.........

[sludgedemon]

In Philly, he called it something akin to "Music for an Abandoned Amusement Park" - I thought it was rather fitting.

[jkshoujk]

Yeah he says that in the video he was thinking about calling it "Music for a Vacant Amusement Park"

[NathanS1994]

absolutely amazing!!!

this man is legend

[k14ce2002]

He was very cool to meet afterwards! It is really nice when someone is that talented, but also appreciates his fans and fellow guitarists!

[chillVibes]

all the candyrat artists are verry down to earth! i saw Antoine and Craig D a few months ago and got to play a few licks with them after they signed my guitar and Antoine even gave me a few pointers and explained a technique of his to me! they are verry nice people

[k14ce2002]

Very cool! A personal lesson with Antoine!

[jkshoujk]

Doesn't sound very abandoned to me! But it's a great song and definitely does depict the joys of being young; I love it!

[DrDread]

no way. thank you for the amazing vid my friend and timeless music by sir mckee once again!

[k14ce2002]

Glad you liked it!

[lip333]

can't wait to hear it before they record it on cadyrat's studio...

[Georgiaguy93]

Cool!,I like this new song of his!!,wonder what he will call it.

[Lupus737]

Man, I love this song! I can't stop listening to it. k14ce, thanks dude for putting it on youtube.

[k14ce2002]

You are quite welcome! It was a true highlight of the show!

[Lupus737]

I think it's pretty awesome when people apply figurative language to music. "sort of as a metaphor for..." he said metaphor. I love the comparison and the song goes very well with it.

[Lupus737]

i meant to say wait after can't. lol

[Lupus737]

I can't for rpolant to put a new Andy Mckee music video. Andy is awesome.

[k14ce2002]

I second that!!

[tomasheavymetal]

not have title?

[ox0Jason0xo]

thanks for posting this!!

have you got any other vids from the show?

[k14ce2002]

I have him playing Art of Motion, Heathers Song, and Tight Trite Night.

[ox0Jason0xo]

sweet they ne different than the 1s on youtube already? like cool bits added in like on afew iv seen live

god id love to see him live hes one of the few ppl tht iv seen play better live than on recordings

[k14ce2002]

Not really any different. I'll compare them again, if some are different, I will post them! He is awesome live! Can't wait for his next visit!

[raha50]

This is awesome, there's something about the harmony of the notes during the chorus that has a very good nostalgic feeling, very much like reflection of fond moments. It also compliments the return to the intro "A" section like peanut butter goes with jelly, or cereal to milk.

[pennylane986]

a ha! this is what i was trying to upload, i just clicked the wrong file and titled it wrong!

[k14ce2002]

I wish I would have used an actualy camcorder for the show!

[partialcapo]

fucking amazing all i have to say

[k14ce2002]

Glad you liked it, despite the video quality! It is a cool song!

[NathanS1994]

wow!

amazing

[contiguousmonkey]

[k14ce2002]

It was a great show! Looking forward to the new album when it is released!
