Playing "Arriving Somewhere But Not Here ..." Porcupine Tree

[lukariello93]

ahahahahahahah the next time, before putting a video, make sure that you can play the song xD... there are hundreds of mistakes... ._.

[thedeadserv]

@lukariello93 u're actually right.... it's about time I reupload this and a few other gigs I did. I rushed a few ones back then to get things up back then. drop by my chanel... you'll get what I mean by "rushed"

cheers!

[intii93]

claro claro, mas antes ainda preciso de pedaleira, guitarra e amp melhores, e uma câmara :b

[intii93]

yaya, acredito, qualquer dia quando tiver uns equipamentos melhorzitos faço também uma cover desta música :D

[thedeadserv]

@intii93 é bem! n te esqueças de partilhar!

[intii93]

tuga represent :D eu por acaso toco uma cena diferente no solo, experimenta fazer bend full no 12, e em vez de depois do slide tocar no 17, no caso de experimentares o bend, toca o 13 da corda Si, fica muito fixe. No entanto , gostei muito da cover, e é a melhor que está por aqui no youtube ;D parabéns

[thedeadserv]

@intii93 lol, o solo foi mm á lei do menor esforço. foi só pá safa. aliás, foram os dois lololol.

Kker dia regravo isto q esta qualidade de som n tá pa nada lol!

[TheRealRazhel]

[KimaelSvenningfeldt]

Hi thedeadserv! Don't listen to the haters (they've probably never held a guitar led alone played a single note in their lifetime). I was impressed - there's a couple of minor flaws - but other than those, it's awesome! Wish I had the same skills.

[thedeadserv]

@KimaelSvenningfeldt

hehe! Yeah! Tks for the comment!

[ragingcakes90]

aye man dont let it hold u back dude.. Its always good to give things another try.

[god4506]

Damn good vid man. audio qlity is shity though

[thedeadserv]

@god4506

...yah sucks... everytime I think of recording this again the view count holds me back lol...

[god4506]

@thedeadserv haha xD

[ragingcakes90]

not bad man.. You learn this by ear or tabs?

if u could tab it out for me man that be kick ass.

[thedeadserv]

@ragingcakes90

Tks. Yes it's by ear. But I won't be tabbing it. You could always google it. I'm sure there's a few good tabs of this around.

GL and ROCK ON!!!

[onabuala]

this is shit... if you play a cover do it well, it too bad

[thedeadserv]

@onabuala

Oh, sorry about that. I guess you must be REEEEALY good at guitar then, huh? So, if this is shit, could you do any better?

[ninjacobra]

Exellent!

[thedeadserv]

Thanks!

[RuiZKRuspe666]

great cover !

[thedeadserv]

lol, thanks!

[haushibo]

Well done, sir. Haha I loved the grimaces during Mikael's clean solo. That timing's a beast, I know, but pretty good overall!

[thedeadserv]

Hheheh! Thanks! And yeah, it's an arse of a beast for me. Well, at least it was then. Never tried it again since. I't might be easier now hehe.

Thanks for the comment!

[Neves1903]

Parabens...esta muito bem tocado,nao sou um fanatico por porcupine tree,sou mais virado para Dream Theater,mas admito que Porcupine é uma grande banda,com um grande compusitor...és de Portugal?

[thedeadserv]

Obrigado pelo comentário. Também curto bué DT. O meu favorito deles é o Metropolis Part 2. O Octavarium tb é fixe. Ouve-se fácilmente.

E yah, sou de tuga land!

[RuiZKRuspe666]

@thedeadserv Oh, man, és tuga, não sabia, parecias africano xD

[thedeadserv]

@RuiZKRuspe666 cá me conformo em n pensares q sou indiano... lol... ms yah, sou alfacinha mas tenho ascendencia moçambicana. heh

[duduvenom]

Quantas linguas vc fala? haha Congratulações do Brazil =]

[thedeadserv]

Hehe! Percebo umas quantas e falo umas poucas.

Obrigada de Portugal :D

[SupermansWheelchair1]

checked it out, lifeless and dull...

[thedeadserv]

you've just began. wach more and criticize honestly, not just flaming because you're pissed at me. be a better person than that. if you can....

[arquiwhat]

Good stuff. With good sound, it'd be nicer too.

[thedeadserv]

yeah.. sadly I didn't have my current setup at the time... otherwise it'd be kickass! hehehe!

Tks for the comment!

[alprog2]

très bien ! good  job

[thedeadserv]

hehe vous etes tres sympathique! merci pour le commentaire!

[Trymson666]

2:10 i love that solo ...

[thedeadserv]

lol so do I... wish I'd done it with a little more practice but I was too lazy to do these lol!

Tks for the comment!

[oyviiiind]

i have that guitar too ;) its a good guitar to play on :D

[thedeadserv]

ahep! It's a bit stiff but great!

[Adrenalinepump231]

5:37 a note at the end is wrong. :)

[thedeadserv]

lol... actually there's more than one hehehhehe

[thedeadserv]

lolz! practice makes perfect! if you try you can do it hehe!

[ingej32]

I don't like the look of the guitar, but i LOVE the sound!

[thedeadserv]

hahhahah! You're the my LOL of the day! Thanks!!!

Glad you liked it!

[toolfan92]

could you send me a youtube message with the tab of the first solo in the song....yours seems really nice to play. thanks.

and greeat playing.

[thedeadserv]

hey! I'm glad you liked it but I can't do that. For one I don't have it tabbed, but that aside, my solo is wrong. I mean, the notes are most right, but the timing is wrong so it's a bad reference.

cerpitaxt16 has it down really good I think, but you can't see crap on his vid... lol.. so I bid you good luck! ehheehe!

ROCK ON!!!

[jroberts2856]

you done all well apart for the solo tha dissapointed me.. learn the solo then try again.. GOOD JOB..

[thedeadserv]

yah, I was a lazy bitch and didn't bother learning the solo! lolz!

Neither of them! LOL!

Glad you liked it anyway!

Thanks for the comment!

[P0mt3]

Fantastic job!

[thedeadserv]

Thanks!

[SirwankAlot1]

[thedeadserv]

Kewl! Thanks!

[shlshred]

I love this song! and you nailed it very well, congrats dude

[thedeadserv]

Good to know man! Thanks!

[overbest]

Very well played ^^

Too bad you messed the solo , but oh it's ok ^^

[thedeadserv]

Thanks! And yeah... to be honest I was too lazy to get it down perfect. LOL!

I'd prolly do it pretty much perfect now... lolz!

Thanks for the comment!

[thedeadserv]

glad you liked it!

[CSdeadwing]

awesome vid

[thedeadserv]

thanks!

[adhikari108]

thanks for taking the time to post this video. well played. good eyebrow co-ordination! Do u have anything on Anesthetize? have u heard Beck guitar on Already Dead?

[thedeadserv]

Thanks! Glad you liked it! LOL! About the eyebrows, I'm not sure it's something to be proud of but hell! LOL!

And yes, I do have Anesthetize uploaded. It's split in 3 parts cuz we're not allowed to have 10mins plus vids lol. Anywho, it's a pretty good job. Check it out! Enjoy! Hehe!

[HANZITOR]

3:41 you give us the finger haha. Really good playing man... totally jealous here

[thedeadserv]

Hahahaha! Glad you liked it dude! Thanks for the comment!

[dudeqqi]

thanks for a great vid, this helps me a lot, you rock man! Could you tell me whats the chord before C and G ("All my designs...") Some tabs say its A# but that sounds weird to me, or maybe my guitar is just playing tricks with me.. anyway, I'm new to playing guitar so these things aren't so easy for me yet :)

[thedeadserv]

Hey there! It is an A#. They're pretty much right. And you're right. It sounds weird lol! But there's no other note for that! LOL! Though I don't do exactly an A#. the I don't press the B string on the a chord. It's the barre that I'm doing with my index that's hitting the string. 3 fingers. index does the bar, ring finger hits the D string, pinky hits the G string. B and e strings are pressed by the index. Dunno the exact name of the note. But it is an A# something. LOL! Good luck!

[xavier777raine]

you need to get yourself in a band ... then play this again ... great work

[thedeadserv]

Yeah... I do... unfortunately I'm a bit too short on members to do so... lol. But it's a matter of time. I do intend to do something big.

Glad you liked it! Thanks for the comment!

[Gogott14]

Perfect !!! You're the new Steven Wilson.

[thedeadserv]

LOL! yeah sure... a bit tanned though... LOL!

glad you liked it bro!

[ronsmith1777]

Awesome.... and yeah, your playing is better than your face!

I really dig the PT that you have posted. Hoping to see Blackest Eyes sometime.

Thanks for posting. =)

[thedeadserv]

LOL! thanks dude! glad you liked it!

[thedeadserv]

oh... and I DO HAVE a Blackest Eyes vid!!! just look it up on my profile.

[skewbeef]

great guitar work like howyou can keep the substain at the beginign

good cover

[thedeadserv]

thankz! glad you liked it dude!!

[kelderraam]

dude, u look like that ice cube guy i saw in a movie

[thedeadserv]

u know whats fuckin funny and ironic beyound any reach? I was just watching triple X 2! LOLOLOLOL! But I kinda know what you mean. LOLOLOL! We both share the swollen face type.

So... hm... my face aside... you like this or what?

[primus41]

nailed it. starting at 2:08 for that little guitar solo type thing, what did you use to get enough feedback to hold the notes as long as you did? it sounded almost like you could hold them as long as you wanted. or is it because you're sitting close to your amp? great work.

[thedeadserv]

thanks bro!

hm. for the sustain I used loads of compression. its the best thing to go with if you want sustain. of course a good lvl of gain helps a bunch too! with that you can pretty much hold anything for as long as you want. it may not look like, but when I was recording this I could barely hear the song. cuz I was recording it with a cybershot. still the sound was already a bit too high. thatz why the sound quality is so shitty... I don't use amps at all.

thnks for commenting bro!

[WalkofLife]

Great cover! I've been trying to figure out which chords you are playing in the beginning, especially the ones on 5th fret. Could you tell me?

[thedeadserv]

hey! thanks! glad you liked it.

hmm'bout the chords. If I remember correctly its a Dm. The one on the 5th fret is like a normal D, except its on the fifth fret. You have to figure the best way to do those and make the variations. Watching the vid its simple enough to get it right.

Good luck! and if you can, post a vid and reply to mine!!! But make sure to make justice to mine!!! HEHEHEHEH!

Thnks for commenting and ROCK ON!!!!

[WalkofLife]

Ahm, I think I'll spare you and all the other watchers from me playing the guitar on such a fantastic song. Wouldn't quite do it justice :)

I think, having watched your vid for several times now, I got it. At the moment I'm trying to sing along, but that's quite difficult I find...

Anyway, thanks a lot for your fast help! Keep rocking on!

[ptiterockeuse1]

GREAT congrulations, sound could have been better

[thedeadserv]

heheh! thanks man! too true the sound couldn've been better, but I didn't have the guitar set up the same way its now... LOL!

Well, now its kewl so.. hehehe!

thnks for commenting!!!

[luissinqro]

maravilloso trabajo

[thedeadserv]

gracias!

thnks for commenting!

[choirgirl891]

yay!XD

[thedeadserv]

errr... ya.. yay... err.. right.

thanks! lol!

[choirgirl891]

oh you should do a wedding nails cover. that song blows my mind.

[thedeadserv]

hm... I whould do so, but I don't have my electric guitar now. I only have the acoustic and It whouldn't make sense playing it in acoustic.... Its just not meant to be acoustic lol. but when I get my gear good I will do it!

[choirgirl891]

"anyone else but you" is so easy a monkey could play it...but it's a great song.

[choirgirl891]

great flick.

[choirgirl891]

your videos do help.

listening and rehearsing are basically the main way to learn how to paly guitar.

kudos.

[thedeadserv]

heheh. I'd say its the ONLY way to learn how to play. lolololol!

I'm really glad my videos are being of help to you!

thnks for your comment!!!

[thedeadserv]

btw! love your video from Juno sountrack. I'm getting it now. saw the trailer and it looks awesome. tearjerking awesome ^_^

cyaz!

[snailmilk]

is it me or the solo to arriving somewhere.. very sexy

[thedeadserv]

lol... what???

[snailmilk]

the first guitar solo part...

basically im saying porcupine tree is an awesome band.

[thedeadserv]

oh ehheeheh!

and you're right! they are! ^_^

thnkx for your comment!

[TheirIronSea]

This is great, liked it: 5/5 from me ^^

[thedeadserv]

thnkzie!!!! glad you liked it!!!

[choirgirl891]

can you please send me the cords for this if you have time? i can't find them anywhere else...

[thedeadserv]

hey. I'm sorry but I don't use tabs.

I hope my vid helps out though!!!

good luck!

[izan31]

Thanx for the chords man, I really love this song & you play it well (look into the jazzy part though)! (Little itchy on 0:50?;)

[thedeadserv]

I'm glad you liked it.

About the jazzy part, I really suck at soloing so that's to be expected lol! Maybe when I get better I'll upload the solo.

I'm glad my vid was usefull for learning. Keep it up, thnkx for your comment and ROCK ON!!!

[russbere2112]

Thanks, will help me play my drums better...

[thedeadserv]

hey there! I'm glad you liked it but...

lol... am I missing something? how's my guitar vid helping you with your drums?

[Ajones47]

Just a thought. Me and my mate sometimes find someone doing a drum cover on Youtube and set our guitars against it. Makes up for not knowing any drummers. Perhaps vice-versa?

[thedeadserv]

oh... i see where you're getting. but I still am playing just over the song. but if its what you said then all the best!!! hehehe!

thnkx for your comment. btw. did you like the vid?

[Ajones47]

Got a 5/5 from me, very classy. I like the Explorer too (Always wanted that classic woodgrain finish one ^_^;)

[thedeadserv]

hehe. thnkx. I love it too. though I don't like the classic woodgrain. my fave is the Gothic explorer, wich is all black. Mine is the Korina.

thnkx for your comment!

[choirgirl891]

amazing.

[thedeadserv]

that's exactly my thought when I first heard this song!!!

glad you liked it!

[NinetiesNut]

I freaking love this song! Great job!!!

[thedeadserv]

thnkx dood!

[AnthonyAcoustics]

lol @ 7:30+ ^_^ Well done, thats bloody impressive.

[thedeadserv]

lol! I really suck at soloing... lol!

thnkx for commenting! I'm glad you liked it!

[blackandwhite30]

bloody awesome.

[thedeadserv]

thanksie!

[LoEAmbrose]

Your video really helped me gettin a grasp to play this song myself, thanks for the great help! *subscribe*

[thedeadserv]

Cool! that's the whole point of uploading this. I'm glad I was of any help. thnkx for the subscription and ROCK ON!!!

[adrian5b]

this is my favorite porcupine tree song... well done, such a shame because of the audio but still i noticed your good job :P

[thedeadserv]

thnkx!!

I'll prolly re-record it anytime later on. I'll prolly do it with all my earlier vids, in wich the sound quality wasn't as good. my recent vids are much better though. make sure you check 'em out. got anesthetized! all 17 mins of it. hope you like it!

thnkx for commenting!

[Gl0w1ng]

gr8 vid love porcupine tree, i got a question tho, if i wanna play gutar wat should i start off with, acoustic or electric?

[thedeadserv]

thnkx.

In my case I did about 3 years with acoustic and then electric. But never gave up the acoustic. My best friend and the best to develop your skills. If you play something good with an acoustic you play it perfect with an electric. I'd advise acoustic. Its also cheaper in case you stop liking it. Less of a waste heheh

Good luck there. And remember my channel when you want to learn something!

ROCK ON!!!

[s3ntimental]

wow. your very gifted... go on with it.

[thedeadserv]

thnkx! I will! heheheh! glad you liked it!

thnkx for commenting!

[ice4bikes]

Awesome playing dude! Nice tone from the GT3 as well.

[thedeadserv]

thnkx!!! glad you liked it! will upload a better quality version soon so look forward to it!

[ice4bikes]

Just added you to my subscriptions. So... Bring them on!

[thedeadserv]

thnkx! I'm not at home for the time being. but when I return I'll upload a load of vids I have with crap quality. thnkx for subscribing!

[carterwhittington]

what amp where you using here? i got a spider III it's pretty nice, but this sounds good.

[thedeadserv]

lol... no amp. just my guitar connected to my pc connected t omy stereo. lol!

the sound is all about the effects pedal. GT-3.

if you think this sounds good, check out my most recent vids. THAT is good sound quality!!

[hoppuss44]

bad show at 0:50 though

[thedeadserv]

sorry 'bout that.lol! 't was a freakin mosquitoe!!!!!! at night, lights on, window open...

so... mosquitoes appart. waddya think?

[devlin0208]

Nice!  I'll be seeing PT in Asheville in a month, can't wait!

[thedeadserv]

heh. how I envy you... they probably won't come to portugal anytime soon so... I'll be sulking around 'till they do so...

glad you liked it! thnkx for commenting!

[liquid2]

really really great!!

you get the right chords O.O!!

good cover

greetings

[thedeadserv]

heh! thnkx dood! glad you liked it!

[lossAMVs]

7:36 - You're THE MAN! *___*

Dude, awesome!

I play it on the keyboards but you in the guitar is just really good 8DDD

Repeat: 7:36 - you are THE MAN! xD

See you o/

[thedeadserv]

NICE!

glad you liked it!

you should upload a vid dood!

I'm just sorry I didn't left this video for later. you'd piss your pants with the new sound quality I have in my vids. much better than this!

check out my anesthetize vid(part 2 especially)!!!

LOL!

thnks for your comment!

[lossAMVs]

I would be very glad to upload a vid of me playing, but i don't have a camera... YET! Hehe 8D

If i do, you certainly will be the first to know (Y)

I'll watch your videos ^^

I saw you playing Trains before... And, after that, i played it in the acustic xD

You're my inspiration man =]

See you o/

[thedeadserv]

I'm glad to see my videos are being put to good use!

I'll be looking forward to your vids! My most recent vids are being recorded with a shitty lifetech cam. the cheapest. but the sound quality is the pc's direct output(wich is way better than any over the average camera's sound recording). that's what's cool about it.

Good luck on your playing and ROCK ON!

[jaisonbass]

good job! although you did create slight mistakes... nevertheless, good job!

[thedeadserv]

thankx dood! lol... me sucks at solos... lol. I have fingers in one hand to count the solos I can really play good... still, thankx for the comment!

[Zarogan]

very nice, indeed.

[thedeadserv]

thnkx dood!

[Ooze68]

Nice job, but still some things to correct, especially during the solos. Anyways, that was pretty nice.

[thedeadserv]

lol thankx dood! I really can't solo very well. the only solos I ever play right are from "Windowpane"... lol but I'm working on it... thnkx for the commment!

[Ooze68]

I can play Windowpane too, it's a very nice song

[thedeadserv]

lol... I agree, very nice indeed. but shouldn't you have left this commment on the windowpane video...? lol... I'm just saying... no harm done... :D

[yohannaurora]

great! i have hardly any trouble with doing solos by ear, by chord progressions i cannot do

[thedeadserv]

LOL! I suck with solos... I've yet to learn a single scale and I started to play 7 years ago...

[yohannaurora]

what language is that/? did u do the the rest with tabs or by ear? if by ear then you re doing good man...

[thedeadserv]

ever since I began playing I usually do them by ear. only really complicated songs make me resort to tabs, and its usually only for the really hard parts... or the ones that I don't understand at all... its more rewarding in the end...

[yohannaurora]

u made some funny expressions during the solo, hehe!

[thedeadserv]

ah... LOL! yes... I can't play that solo propperly... lol... mata kite ne..

[yohannaurora]

ur funny man!

[thedeadserv]

eh???? why's that???

[sundinDT182]

lol yeah i didn't notice any funny expressions ;F?

[sundinDT182]

ah..

lol hadn't finished the video yet.

teehee

[thedeadserv]

heh! lolish! but waddya think of the playing?

[sundinDT182]

Oh yeah didn't comment about that yet lol.

Yeah it was good, but also the song isn't too difficult. But you did a good job on it.

[thedeadserv]

heheh... thnkx dood. glad you liked it.

[h4r4]

Where do you get the tab from?

[thedeadserv]

hey! didn't get a tab... ripped it by ear. solos aside its very easy... I'm not that good with solos... its noticeable lol!

anywho, whaddya think of my playing?

[h4r4]

Bloody awesome!

I want to get a tab for Start of Something Beautiful.

[h4r4]

Can you tab it for me?

Or play Start of Something Beautiful?

[thedeadserv]

guess I could try and play it... don't have much patience for tabbing... lol...

I'll get back to you... in a while...

[thedeadserv]

btw... what do you think of the playing itself...? of this video I mean. if you want to comment on windowpane please do it in it's section :D

[blackezteyez]

wow good job dude =)

[thedeadserv]

thnkx dood!

[skokage]

Very very nice...

Love this song.
