  • could this possibly be jim morrison, back from the grave? sure hope jimi comes back too

  • If a was a music producer i'd make him a star

  • Brilliant!

  • Find out who this guy is and get some more of his stuff. He sounds great singing and playing banjo.  Peter M wwwpeterbanjocom

  • No, you don't belong there. Get yourself to a place that appreciates your talent.

  • i wouldnt say this guy is a bum, i play on the street all the time and i aint no bum. he's dressed pretty nicely too lol

  • lovely

  • 5*** for tapping this,, the guy rocks !!!

  • This guy belongs in the studio making music. Fuck i wish i lived out there. Thats awesome that you took this video of him.

  • saying that people are bums is like saying, the Mayans where bums or hobos. the only reason that term even came into play was because we created the thing that is worth everything out of nothing called money.

  • wow! i would like to play like that!

  • your increadible

  • this is so beautiful

    this video means a lot to me

  • you 're really good man

  • that is soooooo badass!!

  • banjo or not... still the best song ever.

  • good stuff... well done!

  • I love him!

  • This dude has much too much talent to just be performing on the street...Especially when there's bands like the Jonas Brothers that make it big on what little instrumentation skill they have. This guy kicks ass, but at the same time, it's kinda sad because it reminds me of how fucked up and utterly talentless the mainstream music industry is nowadays. Five stars.

  • Best comment ever bro!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Nice cover! I love the banjo!! <3

  • What are you idiots talking about? A bum? A genius? These are only words we use to describe people whose activities or sentiments we cant categorize into the ways we can comprehend. He's a beauty. I know what it takes to make someone like him. But can't explain. I hope he's ok now.

  • This is so beautiful :) I only wish the acoustics of the film were better.

  • I wish I was him.

  • THIS VID SHOULD BE FAMOUS! this is the cover i have been lookin for

  • i should have learnt how to play the banjo.

  • Dude this is one of the coolest covers I've seen...It's very refreshing to see somebody finally step outside the box...

  • Awesome cover. Refreshing to hear with all those one-guy-with-acoustic-guitar covers out there.

  • @Samh9 you mean: "Awesome cover. Refreshing to hear with all those one-guy-with-acoustic-BANJO covers out there."

    lol. It is refreshing. If any of you out there play guitar, hit the street. You'll make people's days a little better when they walk past you.

  • @cooldevinis I actually meant that this was refreshing to hear, compared with all the pretty conventional acoustic guitar covers out there. A banjo cover can extract some other aspects from the song. As for the streetmusicianship, I agree.

  • He looks like Eddie Vedder :p

  • @NickC2007 haha he does look a bit like Eddie Vedder in the 90's

  • This is great! We need more radiohead covers done in bluegrass! Get this busker on a Pod Cast!

  • Cheers to Avalon and to our Great Queen Shawna!

    Cheers,

    Saul Milo

  • good evening Shawna!

  • luved it well done superb

  • this is absolutely fantastic. why isn't there a good quality version of this somewhere? fuck

  • Happy New Years Chris Fisher!

  • This guy isn't a bum... He's too well adjusted and talented to be a bum. If he was a San Francisco bum he would have screwed it up some how or he would have stoped a few minutes into your recording to yell at you about how you need to tip him before you start video taping him... My guess is that he is simply a musician who can't get enough of it!

  • well said, but nobody's a bum anyway-- what a fucking awful, dehumanizing word that is. human beings can't be bums. there are no bums.

  • Wow, I agree, this guy's gotta get some recordings done, I'd definitely toss him a couple bucks on the street

  • What tuning is this in? And was this learned by ear or you got tabs to it anywhere? If anyone know's anything drop me a comment please.

  • As far as I can tell so far is that it is standard G tuning, verse goes G, B, C, (then either C7 or Cm works). The B chord is just filled in with some quarter notes from the same chord and just throw a couple of hammer ons, pull-offs with the rest of the chords to make it sound like a proper chicken chaser of a tune. Not sure about the little bridge after the first chorus, cant really see what he did there, let me know if you figure that out :D

  • Fantastic, an excellent transposition to the banjo.

  • youre awesome dude, very good

  • absolutely fucking amazing!!

  • That's a bum? He's sure dressed nice for one... I mean, a sweater vest?

    Anyway, awesome cover. I'd pay a couple bucks for a high quality MP3 of that. Someone get that man into a recording studio!

  • Makes me wanna learn how to play the banjo...

  • JamisonLeigh, is this *you?*

    Righteous. Keep on truckin'.

  • This is awesome!

  • very good

  • FUCKING SWEET
