Peace of Mind Boston Cover

[alecmichael]

nice job. but the intro guitar drowns out the lead guitar part

[SlyDevil13]

@alecmichael Thank you, and we kinda split lead and rhythm, and the guy recording was in front of the rhythm amp so it sounds louder. one of the other recordings in the middle sounded better but i lost that one.

[AcousticTransmission]

funny you do the acoustic parts on a warlock. not cool

[SlyDevil13]

Sorry we don't have an acoustic.

[AcousticTransmission]

@SlyDevil13 its all good man just funny

[blabblab1212]

I don't have a stopwatch but I would say that the song was played in record time.

[flash1228]

sweet, i have the same warlock

[jusaLOSER]

well the singin isnt bad, just lower than a person would expect, but the band is really good

[macmm7]

Just to let you guys know the original track's octave in the key of Amajor is no easy melodic line to sing in. Brad Delp has a naturally high pitched voice and its hard to imitate; if you think you can do it better post a vid!

[SlyDevil13]

I like this guy ^

[Tybu2585]

No..The original key is actual E major.

[SlyDevil13]

true, but i was referring to the high pitched voice hard to imitate thing

[420joesparx]

i wouldnt have posted this..hope he sings better when hes not sick

[feloniousb]

The singer is singing an octave low? What a crime.

[SlyDevil13]

not to be mean or anything but if you read the other comments you know he was sick and couldnt sing it up that day without his voice giving out. just to let u know

[njnballer44]

excuses excuses

[SlyDevil13]

well, if people are gonna complain, I'm just sayin what happened. He went through a whole bag of Halls fruit breezer things too, so it was kindof funny. plus i bet felomiousb cant sing that high anyway. sooo....thanks for watching anyway

[desr2395]

its funny that when a comment about the singer is negative, he's always "sick" people say this in every video that this happens

[SlyDevil13]

well, believe what you want, I wasn't kidding when i said he was sick. He goes to Saginaw Valley State University in Michigan and played one of the lead roles in a Shakespeare Musical Comedy and sings way up there

[WingerSucks13]

Sweet

[futerblackbelt5]

nice cover, nice song, yeah ive been there with a sick lead singer, its balls lol only we were recording on a time frame (embarrasing)

only suggestion would be from what i can tell, turn up the lead guitar a bit and when you go up after the A during the pre-verse i would play the actual chord boston does,

sounds good though and i hope to hear more from u guys good job.

[SlyDevil13]

thanks, i have 2 recording of this song from this talent show. the other one which is better didn't work. this camera is close to the rythm guitar and thats y u hear it more. the other one, the lead guitar was perfect.

[futerblackbelt5]

i believe that, well good, do you guys write your own stuff? if u have something put together you should post on youtube

[SlyDevil13]

Actually yes. My band now is called Savage Serenity. We have some demo tracks uploaded on our myspace, but we have really bad recording equipment, so the quality sucks. also our band members like 2 switch a lot. my new bass player has some equipment and we are getting stuff together. i write most of the music and the parts and i get people to fill in. but i guess check us out- myspace/mattallicarl

[MusicCreator93]

hey, this is futureblackbelt5 (didnt realize i was on sisters account) its god that you write your own stuff, try to get the new stuff with good equipment up asap and ill def take a look at it, where are you guys based?

[SlyDevil13]

WE are from a place called Davison in Michigan. We are near Flint if you know anything about MI. and if not, we are an hour north of Detroit.

We might have a decent track up in a week or so

[wildtell]

well not but the band but the singer sucks!!!

[stevelikesmetal]

pretty good bro, keep up the good work..

[Mylo88]

sweet

[hazel61kinzel]

the vocalist is not on the same level as everyone else.

[SlyDevil13]

like i said before, he was extremely sick. he couldn't sing the usual way without his voice giving out so he had to drop it down and it didn't sound as good

[kikstrtmyheart]

That was excellent. Great, strong intro. Well played. Rock on

[TheDJax1]

Nice Job Matt, Carl, David, etc.

That was an excellent performance Live. You guys pretty much owned it!

[SlyDevil13]

if you are reffering to our tempo i would agree. getting on stage tends to get adrenaline pumping and we end up speeding the song up

[Superfrog25]

my band and i have done this cover too, i would suggest next time that you turn down the rhythem guitar a little and put more emphasis on the beginning solo but really good job very impressive boston is the best! rock on

[lzcougars99]

onionhole:

i'm right with you

13 years old and my favorite bands are zeppelin boston and floyd.

[onionhole]

AWESOME...love it

[63lesabre]

Pretty sweet. It good to see teenagers that have respect for classic music.

[onionhole]

thank you...i'm 13 and i LOVE classical music, from The Who to Van Halen to Boston and many other bands

[l0lwtf0mgidk]

same here, boston, zeppelin, van halen, ac/dc, aerosmith

[Jchap05]

Even Jesus couldn't have played a better Boston cover.

[SirCarltonH]

Twas an epic day

[NyteShift6]

If your singer is feeling better, you guys should record this with him singing it normally. You guys did great!

[giddygeddy]

Hey, you commented on my Boston video, directing me to this one. First of all, thanks for watching. Secondly, since you insisted that I watch yours, I've done precisely that.

[giddygeddy]

Your cover's good. The guitars are great, the solo's on. But your singer's a bass - you're entitled to your own adaptation, but it makes me miss Brad Delp a little bit. And where's the harmony? That's such an integral part of Boston's sound you're lacking. Certainly you talent show-winning boys are capable, eh?

[SlyDevil13]

well actually our singer isnt a bass, he was sick and his throat was very soar. He couldnt sing it up without his voice giving out. (He had to eat like a hole bag of halls fruit breezers b4 the show). I do miss brad delp very much too. RIP. i kind of picked this as a tribute to him and boston. My mic wasnt loud enough, thats probably y u cant here the harmony,(i dindnt actually know my singer wanted me to backup sing til the day b4.) but thanks for the comments.

[Austhyma]

nice job man I liked it. All I would reccommend is that you guys develop a stage pressence, nobody cares if your just standing there playing guitars. You gotta tell them what your playing, or at least dive into the emotion of the song.

[futerblackbelt5]

good point.

[dim1014]

singer is off

[SlyDevil13]

He was relatively sick that day and couldnt sing very well. ( the Flu kind of sucks) he was going to sing it up and octave too but his voice kept giving out. thx for your comment anyway

[darknesssurrounding1]

great cover also but you forgot to slide pick before the chorus. its the only mistake i notice. great job though 5 out of 5

[SlyDevil13]

i dont know if you would consider this a mistake but i dinked around with the solos, mostly @ the end.

[AXEMAN313]

Great cover,thnx for sharing!*****

[ophachew]

That sure looks like the auditorium at Davison High in Davison Mi. I'm class of '84 and it would be nice to see more here of the goings on there. Thanks for posting.

[SlyDevil13]

Thanks for the comment. personally, we need a new auditorium, it is rather old.

[Diederik141992]

Hey man, this is awesome, I'm trying to play the song, but it's very hard to figure out, where did you find the tabs?

[SlyDevil13]

hey everyone that watches this can u leave a comment please. I dont want to waste ur time but i like to have comments

[robertpina99]

This song is very special to me. Boston rawks, and so do you guys. Peace.

[freewebber]

awesome....you should've won

[SlyDevil13]

I know but for some reason every year the best band competing always gets 2nd place. They always give 1st place to whoever is the best singer while playing/an accompanist is playing an instrument. Many people agreed that we sould'v won too. We had the largest crowd reaction too

[Tobiasfox20]

i wish we could have gotten video of me introducing us.

[SlyDevil13]

My singer had to take it down an octave because his throat was killing him. He sounds even better when he's healthy
