Seasick Steve Live at Hard Rock Calling

[vbz981]

Fantastic Seasick !!!!!!!!!!

[nebraska98]

That 1-stringer whatever it may be called just transmitted the music that is rambling around in Steve's brain through his fingers to an instrument that had to be created to make the sounds for us to hear, is a perfect example of new twists in musical evolution. And to make such great music with two sticks, a string, and some tin cans, is just amazing.

[senoroso]

@nebraska98 Google "diddley bow". Hardly evolution.

[vireogilvus]

You think he has enough monitors?

[KeithFlint350]

i saw Seasick Steve first time in Top Gear. What he did with his strange guitar was incredible ;D

[touretul]

whatta crowd for two people on the stage!

[headbanger3397]

Now let's end the show with some good fapping. 4:07

[1599maybole]

Bo Diddley was the inventor of rock music in the 50s, and to stop white people ripping his songs and pretending they wrote them he put his name in every song.

[pampalass]

he's got his on stage on the main stage... that's pimpinn!

[therogue1]

[therogue1]

[LidlFisken]

[railander]

[erlingthybo]

@railander

Isn´t "Bo Diddley" ?

[andyscoot43]

@erlingthybo Diddley Bo. Bo Diddley is a person.

[erlingthybo]

@andyscoot43 - Yeah correct - but there´s also a track called "Bo D.." or "Hey Bo D..."

[Pjotful]

[simpelminded]

[markgoffeney]

[ZepIV]

I absolutely love Seasick Steve's stuff! His rig here is really awesome too: one string, one amp :D

[DistortedV12]

lmao. a couple of cans, a wound string, and a block of wood and suddenly it's a musical instrument. Typical redneck.

[Pallietime]

Most primitive live setup.. ever.

[b44styreraug]

I wonder what pick up he use, the sound's really good :]

The drummer sounded really experienced and seasoned too! He's 100% on track

[mullen2105]

We understand DIDDELY BO!

[Ni213Ki]

Im all for people having a go but this is a piss take at its most extreme.

[idelta777]

JBeaver and this guy were found playing on the streets, the difference....... this guy makes better music with the guitar he has always played, that's talent!!!

[sammywombarra]

I prefered seasick steve when it was just him, a 3 string guitar, a diddley bo and a shoe box with a number plate on it for percussion. He's still good though.

[math1703]

it's at rock werchter in Belgium

[MapleGunz]

A born redneck in flesh and blood!

[erpvb]

@MapleGunz dude luister je ook naar seasick steve heb elk album op cd xD

[smacman68]

[MaartenBHxC]

[MrBakkify]

[Mancind]

I'm pretty sure this is at Rock Werchter in Belgium.

[AkAjjAcobsz]

[amidfallen]

[marcussilvamgs]

[alex888brain]

I'm gonna make myself one of those things and just annoy my wife with it. Diddley Bo!! Diddley Bo!!!

[salmonline]

HopeDiedScreaming and Machinegunguitar are jealous cuz they can't do nearly as well on 6 strings.
