Grey Street - Dave Matthews Band (Cover)

[SoftballAllieCat]

Once again you have seemed to amaze me! WOW!

[LexPhilosophy]

I love this, grey street is by far one of my favorite dave songs, and you did it poetically <3 great job!

[guitbox86]

good job, sick 12 string

[JulietteHale]

Excellent! One of my DMB favorites, glad you did it justice

[tj4bats1]

Dude this is the best non DMB performance I've seen

Great job

dude quick tip,.. dont raise your head when you want to hit a higher note, i know its tempting cause of habbit. but if you lower your chin a little it'll come out... thats why tubas are so much bigger than lets say a trumpet... it has more piping[meaning its longer] trumpet has less. enabling it to play higher... if you raise your head you make your throat longer.. making it harder for you to hit the higher note.... but dude this was kick ass!!!

[turdferg098]

And to add to this, don't tense up when singing higher notes, I noticed it just a little bit especially in the last chorus. If you tense up, it restricts your air flow, making the note sound pinched and cause you to not have as good of a tone quality. Use faster air to get the high note, don't pinch it out. Other than that, great job! I especially like the fact that you actually play the left hand part correctly. I see so many people play it wrong, so it's a big relief to see someone do it right

[RyanWehr]

its amazing how the 12 string makes this song really come to life.

[Fritsche08]

lets start a dmb cover band lol

[DMBman365]

Dude, great guitar playing you have that down on all you videos but you need to work on the singing. Let it flow and use your diaphram for the last part to get the really high notes.

[mitchploeg]

did you seriously say use your diaphram?... you know that doesnt do anything dont you?... you made yourself sound stupid instead of saying, "support it with your abdomin, squeez the glutes, raise your eyebrows, or any combination of them that helps you get the note out."....

[DMBman365]

@mitchploeg you sound like your trying to be a fag. twostep03 isnt an idiot or a baby like your trying to make him out to be. He can figure out how to sing the note and i just used the technical term.

twostep03, just keep pushing yourself. I pushed myself and now i can hit that high A like in this song or another like "Dont Drink the Water" and you will too ;]

[DMBman365]

@mitchploeg your a fag. Stop making twostep sound like a baby. he can learn the technical term and eventually hit that note it he pushes himself.

twostep, you can do it. Im 15, i pushed myself, and now i can hit that note. You just have to practice man ;]

[tynasword]

Dude you rock..very talented keep it yup..hopefully sometime soon we will hear you on the radio..I would buy your album

[Ross12185]

nice cover to a great song!! but from one player to another... you gotta feel it!!! your on rythm perfect and at the end of the song u got it!!!! but when u get lost its what people wannna watch!!! why do we wann see dave so many time live cause he dances and makes everyone watching wanna rock the hardest!!!! sorry to ramble on im just sayin u nailed one of my fav songs and def my fav to play... so just get loose up there and i think you play in front of thousands bro!!!!

[jjolddahgoo]

This is an excellent cover. Great job!

[2bigben7]

good job man !! excellent guitar player ;-)

[soccerstar0009]

the 12-string was an excellent choice for this song. benching the ibanez allowed you to pull out the rich tone this song deserves. 5 stars!

[chort1234]

I dont think thats an Ibanez, it looks like a 12string Takamine jumbo G series, am I right?

[twostep03]

thats exactly right, but he was saying it was a good choice to bench the Ibanez for this one (my other guitar is an ibanez)

[timgoodwintv]

Dave does use a 12-string for this song.

[raregee]

Merry Christmas!!!

[Petesheeah]

that guitar is so sick

[proc007]

i know im obsessed with that thing

[MAG141993]

Awesome job... "Grey Street" is a great DMB song. Keep it up!

[dmarkland10]

good job man

[muners001]

awesome best cover of grey street ive heard

[teunbartelds]

very nicely done!

and very nice sounding 12string you got!

but one very tiny thing, dave matthews plays an A/C#-chord in the chorus instead of the A-chord you use... sounds even better, but hey, great job man!

[twostep03]

thank you

I've seen Dave play it both ways actually, i just dont think it makes that much of a difference

[teunbartelds]

hm yes thats true...

some parts dave plays a normal A chord and some parts with a C#... but you're right its no big deal:p

[camperck828]

This is one of my favorite Dave songs and you definately do it justice.

[garranthony]

Keep it up man....Inspiring!

[garranthony]

Keep it up man.....Inspiring!

[kseitz24]

great playing, sick guitar man

[JaredB23]

Nice work man ! I must admit, you did sucker me in with the 'lillywhite' tag on this video, and I was a little disappointed to find you singing the busted stuff version. None the less it was a great effort. Good voice, great playing, beautiful guitar. :)

[twostep03]

thanks dude. I agree with you, I really like the Lillywhite lyrics better, but i didnt think people would know what it was. I love the version on LT 3 with the alternate lyrics..gives me chills everytime

[closeupcorey]

I'm surprised.. I like the lillywhite version.. actually heard it first, believe it or not, but I like the busted version way better. to each his own, I suppose lol

[twostep03]

I like the sound of the Busted Stuff version better, but I love the old lyrics...much more meaningful I think. Not that I don't like this version, just not as much

[sanjock22]

nice work, man. that guitar has a really great sound too. keep it up.

[jeepwaco]

Very good job keep it up!!

[twostep03]

thank you!

[hombre3000]

Sounds excellent. I wish we could play together.

[Brothwin]

Hey man, as always.....awesome cover, and sweet twelve-string!! Judging from the background, I'd have to guess it was an early Christmas gift....what kind is it??

[twostep03]

thanks! actually I bought the 12er back in May so I've had it for a while now. Its a Takamine G series jumbo

[zaljereck]

Awesome job man...love the 12 string!!!

[twostep03]

thanks man

[seannn111]

you do good work!i love playing dave song also!

[poccetre]

I'm bad at guitar, but my xmas tree is a lot cooler lol

great job man... i can't believe u've been playing for just 2 years :O

Greetings from italy!

[twostep03]

Thanks! but you can't say your tree is cooler with no visuals to back it up!! this is just my college tree in my apartment. My tree at home is much bigger :)

[CMBLMB22]

How long have you been playing guitar?

[twostep03]

i got my first guitar for christmas 2 years ago

[joshward11]

flawless on the guitar man. you make it look easy and effortless--well you do on all your dave covers. and nice vocals too! they were never bad at all but it seems you're improving.

[twostep03]

thanks! thats what I like to hear :)

[mattydfromisp]

[twostep03]

Nice Christmas tree! Makes me excited for the best time of the year.

[closeupcorey]
