fuck all of you who talked shit about the guitar. I played bari sax with this group. We all had our solos. This was HIS song. If you dont like it. Fuck off.
okay Van Halen we get it you can play, you wanna let the rest of the band play? Even when the band has the melody you are kinda loud? I have this song and i know the solo can be repeated, so try giving some of the lime light to another player, but that was pretty good and solid, you must know your stuff, i just play the suggested trumpet solo
jazz bands traditionally play this song, but that doesn't mean it has to be in a swing beat or anything like that. the rhythm of the song is literally labeled "driving rock".
Wow yeah the gutiar, no way. It ruined the song. I can't hear the ensemble because it's too loud and distracting. Small jazz bands, wow. Ours is huge! 40 people and we are high school. I play trombone.
my school is playing this song. to much guitar maybe try and putting him next to the band and not in the front cause he is overpowering the band especially during his solo (hard to hear the backgrounds)
Alright... To all of you little homos posting that it was too much guitar maybe you should learn more about how our jazz band worked before you start judging and talking shit... Each of our songs had a feature of a different instrument... Donovan made up a completely different solo every time he played this... So what he decided to do some crazy metal shit... He is still an amazing player...
That was an awesome solo, but really, TOO MUCH GUITAR. I agree with Detroid, Jazz bands are meant to feature the band, not the rhythm. But no offence to rhythm players as they are essential to the band's success.
im playing this song too haa if my class sees this comment all i gotta say is hi haha so yeah uhh i dunno the solo was good but its jazz not crazy guiar man band so yeah it sounded good but it needed not to have the guitar solo ary but that s how i role haha i play bass so yeah its fun on this song its kinda hard but i can do it haha so yeah....

i dont care if its rock band or not he is really good so stop judging all right i play guitar and im in jazz band and you can shut your mouth about how guitarists try to take over the band screw you why dont try to play OK ironman200X!!! FAG!!!
ha...we played it with 7 trumpets in our concert and with the bass ripping ah man it sounded great....once i got the hang of the song the trumpet melody was nothing and i had the part memorized...which made it fun because we could do stuff while playing without looking at our music
Good guitarist, but his solo ruined the song. It's Jazz Band, not Rock Band. I don't like it when guitarists take it over because they think it's their gig. Don't get me wrong, he is a fantastic player, but guitars aren't the showcase instrument in a Jazz Band.
2:17 was ultimately the worst part of the song. That's the trumpet accappella section, and he ruined it with pinch harmonics...
i am indeed a metal palyer in my own right and i am in my school's jazz band
and i know when its time to cool down the axe and let the melodic instruments of jazz do their thing. Guitar Bass Keyboard and drums serve as rhythm. they are the rythm for jazz, guitars dont play main unless for some special occasions.
Were playing this song in my jazz band class... we sound much better though... I love the first trumpet part! its so pretty! haha. the tennor part is great too... and i'm not just saying that cause its what i play... haha.
yea well played, every part about it. i really enjoyed the pinch harmonics he did, sounded GREAT. however in the last 2 measures of the song (first trumpets) its supposed to climb the scale up louder, it goes into FF so its supposed to stay loud with trumpets. my middle school jazz band played this and it was a fun song, except we used a drum solo instead of a guitar solo.
Haha... Thanks for your comment man... Our guitarist is amazing... Our entire jazz band would be amazing if we actually had some decent trumpets... Only one of the five can read music haha
This is a pretty fun song to play. My middle school jazz band is actually playing this. Sort've slower... and no guitar solo, which was really good. We are one of two middle school jazz bands in the city.
What a great jazz band!!. That guitar player is awsome too. But then,.. come to think of it, I guess it does`t hurt being the grandson of Tony Rice does it? yeah, thats what I thought!!!. D.N.A speaks volumes
Love the faces of the concert band behind him. "HOLY FUCK BALLS"
