[iamblinkin]

Awesome! I love the resonator uke too, I was interested in one a while back though it was a little to expensive at the time. Keep it up!

[russbuss415]

thanks! it's pretty fun to play. got some weight to it.

[gman0674]

I like how you welcome positive and negative feedback in the description. As if anyones gonna give you negative comments for that tune, it was amazing as always. Keep it up mate, hope you do well in the contest.

[russbuss415]

it's best to welcome negativity. it's inevitable on the internet. thanks for watching and commenting!

[SailQwest]

Great job, Russ! The resonator seems like it was made for you!

[russbuss415]

thanks Kim! i think it was blessed with caribbean SailQwest magic. i'm lovin' it!

[nemoAUS]

that was fkn awesome russ! againnnnnnnnnnnnn i salute u friend!!!!!!! i wish i could sing =[

[russbuss415]

thanks much dude! cheers!

[littlechick73]

Cool! A reso-uke!  Very nice!

[russbuss415]

thanks much! the collection is growing. i may have to start thinning it out again.

[benmealer]

Lookin' good with your fancy shirt and shiny resonating ukulele. Vocals were spot on and playing was great as usual. Did you have an earbud behind your hair? If not, how do you listen w/o feedback? (and btw, I accidentaly removed your comment on my video instead of replying, sorry. Why do they have those two links so close together?!)

[russbuss415]

thanks for the comment Ben! i actually played the first track out loud from a separate laptop without headphones and played the lead licks over that. when i put them together in the end, it just all blended in with no feedback. and i agree about the links being too close together.

[artworkslive]

sweetness....and i never really dug tom petty, until NOW. my sub finger's feelin' itchy, yup!

[russbuss415]

thanks muchly!

[AcousticMonster]

Great video Russ! What are you using to record your videos? I seriously need to upgrade my laptop, or get a digital camcorder, lol.

[russbuss415]

thanks A.M.! i record through my iMac's built in webcam. i also have an older miniDV camcorder that i sometimes use.

Nicely done! Great look and sound! Good luck in the contest!

[russbuss415]

thanks John! good luck with your entries as well.

[theBradlands]

Great tune and performance.

It did look like backing-vocalist-Russ wasn't into it as much as lead-singer-Russ...reading a book during the song. You should have a talk with him ;-)

[russbuss415]

thanks Bradlands!  backup Russ was nursing a hangover. and he can't read, the book is all pictures.

[GrumpyCoyoteTunes]

Brilliant - LOVE that reso axe too.

I need me one of them shirts.

[UKISOCIETY]

You tenors.....

Great job on this. Should be a contender.

[russbuss415]

it's actually concert scale. i gave my only tenor to a madman in KentuckianaFriedMayo :)

thanks UKI! it's going to be hard competing with your videos around.

[UKISOCIETY]

We basses can't sing Tom Petty, m'kay? Thanks for rubbing it in!! :P

[russbuss415]

haha, just call me mizzundahstood. (hangs head in shame, rubs mayo in further)

[boozelele]

where did you get that uke man? I am so out of the loop. very nicely done. What no mayo?

[russbuss415]

i keep forgetting the mayo. i need a third frame dedicated for sandwich spreads.

Nice, the one on the left needs to stop slacking off though.

[russbuss415]

thanks franny! don't get me started on lefty. he's incorrigible.

[SaddleSoreSista1]

Wow is that resonator!, great job as always. The high ends on the uke sound awesome. Loved it!

[russbuss415]

thanks much SSS! it's SailQwest's old resonator.  i'm having lots of fun with it!

[mctrmt]

How did you decide which one had to play all the way through and which one got to have the coffee break? And how in the world are you going to share the prize if you win? Man, I do not envy you.

Adelle, is right, the more Russ the better.

[russbuss415]

one russ will probably kill the other before the winners are announced. not a problem at all. just need to fire up the petri dish and grow another. thanks for the comment M-A!

[russbuss415]

thanks Adelle! you know how to make me blush. or maybe it's the alcohol :)

[sgtimafilipino]

totally awesome i always love your vids haha

[russbuss415]

and i love that you take the time to watch them. thanks!

[BenTheWriter]
