Richie Kotzen TV Appearance - Interview & 'Chase It'

[orleagle62]

You know you gotta give it up It's too far gone to chase it... And when the feelings go you don't wanna have to fake it. All of the lies you love to tell you know I heard it all before... But it's over now... your just gonna have to face it... face It...

[WyldeTV]

THat song fuckin' sucked!!!



[handsomerube]

R-I-C-H-I-E! NO "T", damn it!!!

[DiBiasehere]

I say it again , nobody better than this man...

[TupolevTech]

only richie could play like that thru such horrible gear....that guitar is probably some prop they found in the tv station basement.

[MrBluesmanJunior]

@TupolevTech Actually, I'm pretty sure this is Richie's Taylor, the same one you can see him play in the 'Larger Than Life' video and some others. The problem is the horrible mic placement, + the mic itself is probably not a very good one, you can tell by the shape and size it's definitely not an instrument mic. But I do get your point, Richie sometimes does play odd acoustics, but those are lended to him for specific performances if he's on tour and/or doesn't have his own guitar with him.

[DethByMyIbanezAxe]

That dude, from 0:58 to 1:03, sounds like the biggest square I've ever seen. 

[rayito2005]

Richie is a good musician .

[rguitar]

i love even with horrible mic and everything richies voice still sounds awsome.

[Ligimar1]

Look a 0:20 Man they even mispelled his name. Fucking morons..

[Whyrendog]

@Ligimar1 that's how it's spelled though.

[tsubasa1988]

its just me or that reporter looks like she use to be a poison groopy

[joeylodes]

i saw poison live with Ritchie Kotzen ..... It was a complete joke watching a masterful musician like him being surrounded with such utter garbage. Thank god he banged who ever he had to bang to get tossed from them..... he's MUCH better off without them. Maybe his wallet isn't .... but his music is.

[DiBiasehere]

@joeylodes Man,how true is that..

[JayAndTom77]

@joeylodes

Yeah, Richie is one of a kind. He can play at this place too, even is the sound is shitty and the guys at the studio wonder what tihs dude is doing there.. I love him, even better with a fu...ing sound! Go faster!!

[Dudeprelude69]

Poison wrote a cool stuff with him!

But people, so ignorant that don't notice his great contribution in the music legacy as solo artist.

Marvelous artist!

[Timmonsec]

Camara man should be murdered...

[angerystickman]

i may just the mic but that guitar sounds like shit

[bennolanman]

haha at 2:36 she says ricky kotzen, whahah

[Whyrendog]

Thanks for posting this. I love how he thinks about Poison and is careful not to mention what happened with him and Bobby (Bobby's girlfriend rather). I loved what he did with Poison. Brett Michaels wouldn't be on "Rock Of Love" if Richie hadn't helped Poison become a respectable (sounding) band.

This is cool to he what it's like to be him. I follow him on twitter but I'm not sure if it's really him tweeting but it is linked to his wevsite.

[scirasco]

why no bar stuhl fuckin standing there like a pan handler !!!!not richie's fault but i would of asked the production for one!!!!

[sebastal]

in that style of vocalization the basic steps are too: Stand up, aline your feet with your shoulders, bend the knees, turn your pelvis frontally a bit, maintain the chin somehow inclined and a straight back...that's just makes it easier to relax, sitting would end up being harder on his voice

[Unspoker21]

great musician,and great man

respectful

[lazlo1968]

I love Richie's music. Amazing guitar player and great voice. Always appreciate any Kotzen material. I was a little dispointed Poison was mentioned in the interview, but there was no mention of Mr Big, a band he was also part of, and a favorite of mine.

[cnmaster01]

not by name but they did mention opening for areosmith(with mr. big)

[1kydde2]

I wasn;'t his album with poison was probably there best, and he had some great guitar work with that band and penned there best song "until you suffer some." Poison really brought richie to the mainstream, and I'm sure he would say it was nothing but fun

[feradantes]

Richie Kotzen is probably one of the top 10 guitar players in world.. all of those who loves music should pay some respect for his job! great musician, great voice, great artist!

[evilmfer]

I hate it when i look up a great artist hear them do something that I wish I could do, scroll down to read the comments only to find a bunch of morons debating over dumbshit. Didn't you look this up because you love music? Who gives a fuck about the equipment. This isn't american Idol. IF you wanna waste some time, go text your vote in and stop wasting everyone elses time. How about this tidbit- he hasn't slept in a while, didn't sound check and still blew us away

[twebb63]

what TV station did this show?

[emblazed]

Think its one in San Diego, Cali. From what I recall the parade was down there but I didnt make it.

[kraven1978]

RiTchie???? Richie Kotzen....

[eliminategas]

This sounds like crap and who the hell got him this guitar?? it sounds like a $99 piece of shi*

[MrBluesmanJunior]

It's (poorly) miked up with a $9.99 piece of sh*t (most likely dynamic) microphone, which would make pretty much any guitar sound like crap. This is probably a Taylor...

[netoolv]

It's a Taylor.
