Tesla ~ War Pigs

[chewdailey]

really tesla doing sabbath. awesome.

[ZombieMooFish]

Cake was bettah.

[ohjtbehaaave]

For my money Frank Hannon is one of the best rock guitarist EVER!!!

[Alset4ever]

OK, will share my seat....FRANK Hannon and DAVE Rude are playing two acoustic shows in August in Pennsylvania!! Pass it on :)))))

[hottchoda]

Gotta thank you for the awesome tune. Really brings me back. Freaking awesome cover.

[Nbgd1988]

Is this an American band? I`m from Serbia and they named their band by our famous scientist, altough he was born in Croatia. According to history data, he was a Serb. :) I`ll start listening this band, no bad rock. ;)

[Nbgd1988]

@Nbgd1988  *not

[Alset4ever]

@Nbgd1988 Oh yeah, American as it gets!! If you really want to know more about their name, check out "Edison's Medicine" video, a tribute to your famous scientist! It's crazy how Tesla's ride has mirrored Nikola's. History is slow to catch up with our Tesla too, but can't be denied forever. Grab their new cd "Twisted Wires" that's another acoustic masterpiece, and also has my new fav version of Edison's Medicine. If this is your 1st Tesla turn-on, you've got ALOT to look forward to; welcome home

[1bmangoin]

Wow.. Cool remake and killer guitarist ...

[Zlazuja]

@pwn3dpwn3dpwn3dpwn3d and he STILL gets more pussy than you ever will

[Sidneyirvinggrosberg]

@ sonicbear

You like to recycle that line about Justin Beaver and Lady Googoo don't you?

If something's that great, it CERTAINLY bears repeating. You rock.

[The1badd1]

you rock teslajunkie

[teslajunkie]

@The1badd1 Thanks for the compliment  ")

[nostalgia43]

I seen these guys in 86' and 88'. I'd still go see them today. They ROCK!!!

[sconibear]

@pwn3dpwn3dpwn3dpwn3d Must be sad to live in a fucking third world country where you have no concept of rock and roll, rock and roll showmanship, or stage presence!

Jeff Keith is one of the best front men in rock.

Why don't you run along and go listen to your Justin Beaver or Lady Googoo and leave the REAL music to us grownups!

[teslajunkie]

@pwn3dpwn3dpwn3dpwn3d If you don't have anything nice to say, keep your fucking mouth shut and stay the fuck off my page! Clearly your mother didn't teach you any manners.

I usually find that those who need to criticize others have plenty of self loathing issues of their own... Good luck with that, you'll need it.

[TheSmithbelynda]

@teslajunkie You tell him!!!! Way to shut him down Trac!!!!

[maestro4110]

this song rings so true no matter who does it

[jubitoftw]

original is black sabbath's, but tesla actually cover faith no more's version (and imho the best version of this great song).

[michaelbaggsmusic]

nice

[Bromoe99]

Caught TESLA in a bar opening for Motorhead and the closed with a ZEP & Sabbath cover. Did'nt have a lot of material back then and they were good enough to remember them ,

[slagdraggin1313]

Who cares what they wears..It's Rock n Roll,Baby!!!!!

[thardman10]

that is black sabbath originally

[skater533]

Tesla rocks and always will!! They're the best band ever!!!!!!!!

[jamtubez]

best cover of war pigs ever.

lose the clothes.

[nostalga44jo]

100 ooo clicks on this video is impressive...Lotta fans still following them after all these years.. I knew I had good taste...

[poindexter3000]

These guys need a new wardrobe.Those clothes are hidious.

[powersheep8]

they are punk rockers. they look bad on purpose

[calosity]

Punk Rockers???

What Universe are you from....???

[QuietRiotFan01]

@powersheep8 ? punk rockers? huh? What? You are confused friend.

[dokkcrue71]

Awesome,,5 Stars !!!

[oneinamilliongnr]

Damn so fuckin' awesome! Tesla kicks ass! Luv these guys!

[Kanefilms]

Great vid... Thanks for posting this.

[teslajunkie]

Very welcome... more to come from the OK show this weekend! ROCK ON!!

[GT2Luff]

I have goose bumps....They tore it up!!! Love Them!!!!

[ashuron23]

honestly, at first glance, tesla + war pigs... doesn't mix, but after listening to it, wow.... tesla fucking rocks, even more so than i thought lol.

[tomlad750]

Cool, I want a dog with wheels, just to see it getting up kerbs

[dangzard]

ahhhh ur mean dude :D

[cjm84911]

check out my cousins covering it at War Pigs Cover - THUNDERCHILD its awesome

[akooney]

check out the faith no more war pigs cover, its badass as hell, btw tesla is an awesome band.

[garnerean]

What I like about Tesla is that they don't take themselves so seriously. They cover songs they like and have good time. That's the spirit of a great live show to me.

[napoliondynamite]

meh the guitarist didn't do anythin interesting from the original.

[TheWarriorKings]

i could sing better than that lol

[teslajunkie]

Yep, that's why I or anyone here knows who you are.

[TheWarriorKings]

LOL you think hes up there because he is the best singer? Hes up there cause they were sellable and the songs were good to play. Can you really say he was singing good this night?

[teslajunkie]

Ummm.... hell yeah, I was there and it totally fucking rocked! Ask anyone who was there. Oh, and I didn't say he is the best singer... he just happens to be one of my favorites.

[TheWarriorKings]

w/e its a lost arguement i love tesla too. I just think his vocals cuked largely that nite hahah

w/e cheers to beers

[teslajunkie]

Seriously dud... coulda been my camera. I just use a digital. And I'm cool with your opinion... just tend to vocalize my own a little loudly sometimes.... ROCK ON!!

[bksunset30]

great job

[MetallicaCreed]

i think that his voice just doesnt match the song at all i think it was a bad idea to even try it i thought it sucked srry

[jimdandygo]

i'm into tesla & sabbath, but tesla just doesn't have a dark enough side to be covering war pigs, just my opinion...

[anothersonofdakin]

omg hippo ozzy was in black sabbath

[eusebio232]

its a good cover

[roufroufkat]

thats ozzys song

[oneshot7200]

my dearest, hippojones, what the @%#$&^ who do think black sabbath was???????????

[bubbabubba20042004]

I disagree, Tesla's always done great remakes (stealing?? hardly, it's a tribute) and this sounds excellent. And keep in mind it's filmed from a cell phone.

[siriusjs]

Pure unadulterated Sacrilege. I was a HUGE Tesla fan...until now.

[skyseye]

why?? if you think objectively, they do a good job with the song... and their intention is to pay tribute, that's all...

[freedomslave07]

Tesla rocks the hell outta everything they do!! Just saw them in Saint Paul, MN.--All I can say is WOW!!! They have not lost it a bit in twenty some years. The show was being recorded for a DVD and they brought it!!!

[teslajunkie]

Personally, I think that Tesla rocked the hell outta this song!

My thoughts about opinions... they're like assholes... everybody has one and they all stink!

To each his own...

In my experience, usually is't the haters that use words like fags and such about musicians/musicianship. I mean, saying you don't like something is totally acceptable, but seriously people, grow up!

Tracey

[HippoJones]

way to go!

tons of users on you tube are super immature on videos. who cares if you don't like a video but do they have to make a big deal out of it?

[philyphil1]

Ozzie Loves this so chill. This is a quality rendition of classic ZZZabbath. Thanks for giving it a great go Tesla....You ROCK!

[ZMT4LIFE]

what a bunch of fags, stealing one of Ozzy Osbourne's biggest songs.

[gvg1970]

this is a Black Sabbath song.

[WWEEDGE2006]

And it isn't like they stole it. They covered it and payed tribute to a band, which more than likely influenced them.

[HippoJones]

this is not even an ozzy song. black sabbath did it and i think tesla did a great cover

[mystermatt15]

i like how people keep adding to the convo and each person adds there 2 cents ( yes cents) to make them seem smarter than the last person..either way good song..yes its a cover..great job genius'

[hottrthanu]

dave can rok out 4 a kid his age

[motleycrue24]

tesla doin sabbeth ehh...

[csdimitris2]

Check out "Domination" or "Cowboys From Hell" by Pantera. They are raw + awesome." RAWSOME!

[x30p00n4g3]

bad ass

[SecretlyCruel]

tesla doing war pigs is sacreligious.

[1964sammie]

i seen tesla in their hayday. it looks like they still got it.

[bb62g]

WHAT THE HELL DID I JUST SEE???????? I knew I loved these guys for a reason!!!!!!! Not many groups can pull it off live like that! Tesla is up there with bands like Lynrd Skynrd, Black Crowes and alice N chains!!! Anyone else know of any GREAT LIVE groups!!

[dustyorb]

King's X

[bb62g]

I'll have to give them a listen. Any LIVE performance in particular???

[stryperken]

Yup, Stryper! To see them live is amazing!

[doomantia]

Oh Lord Yeah!!!

[BLaZe071775]

[milkswrestler99]

[ladybugpam]

omg Jeff, you are still hot as hell!!!!! come up and see me sometime....

[oneinamilliongnr]

Tesla is awesome! This is the first time I've

ever read such ridiculus comments about them.

Tesla is absolutely incredible!!! ROCK ON!

[Panasonic123221]

MY NAME IS TESLA!!!!

[AtGiza]

Even though this must be the coolest thing they've ever played, ever... ever.... Tesla still isn't very cool.

[bb62g]

What??? Tesla rocks!!!

[madstanltd]

Ok whats with the spitting. I travel in my little van to see tesla at 55mph at minehead. I was going to the HRH i had afew bands on my hit list... FASTWAY.. RATT.. TESLA and the other bands i seen was great. saxon. twisted siter, ufo but couldnt help but notice the lead singer frrom tesla spitting at every moment. I have seen tesla a few times never noticed this b4. Tesla Fan

[dlosterman]

no ! I'm not gay

[dlosterman]

I luv love tesla

[COCKRICHARD1]

NO SHOULDN´T...YOU´RE RIGHT

[torval4]

Love Tesla, That is an excellent cover

[BuddyThangs]

Tesla has no business playing Black Sabbath.

[AtGiza]

Haha i agree.

Even though this is probably the coolest thing they've ever played, it still doesnt make them very cool.

[AtGiza]

I'm with you man

[danialyssa]

screw anyone that has someting against tesla.

my cousin is the guitarist.

so suck it<3

[ManTurds]

Sciotch or Hannon? 'Cause if it's Hannon, well I used to work with his brother (Dave)tell them FUCK YEAH I love em and miss them, come back to Idaho some time.

[Wassup1887]

ya right

[witchy2k1]

oh well then, that must make them great - FOOL.

[YoTuAccount]

Black Sabbath ! Tesla is good but not that good ---> 5 stars :)

[Kuuma]

Wow, those are some angry hippies.

[kokaneechick]

that was better than the original!

[wyldeman69]

You are stupid for saying that, don't get me wrong I enjoy Tesla's music, but Sabbath was a band unlike any other and to say this cover is better, obviosly shows one of two things, one you know aboslutely nothing about music, or tow, your brain is too fucking fried from your Aquanet Superhold...

[writerdudeson]

no no no no tesla shouldnt b doing sabbath no

[maurin]

really? you said that on the other videos. we heard you the first time, champ

[tqduongg]

where are the heckling idiots like you when i'm in the public....wouldn't mind punching your fucking face in....pansies like you can talk big behind a computer but have their mouth shut and dick small in public...polite and kind...go heckle in a public store face to face with real people

[Bill1122]

Great vid, thanks teslajunkie! See them everytime they come to the Midewest. Last time at the Rave in Milwaukee, WI. in July. Goin' again Sept. 11, @ the Chicago House of Blues :)

[mrhooker]

That bitch going WOOOOO is ruining this sweet video for me.

[driverace5000]

My brother partied with them when he was on tour with Bullet Boys as security in the 80's.

[futuremrsworley]

oh my that a name i have not heard of in a long time the bullet boys

[stellys]

That is the original drummer, Troy Lucketta.

Its the entire original lineup with the exception of Tommy Skeoch, who was replaced by Dave Rude.

[SMOSHSMASHSPLOOSH]

nice pants Frank lol. four of the hottest people on the face of the earth, three of which are in tesla: Jeff, Frank, Dave, and last but most definitely not last Alice cooper!!! :D

[lyrialzander]

..always liked their version of War Pigs...

[sungodrah]

Holy Paranoid!! That was a hell of a version..incredible,lot of energy..is that the original drummer,hmm!??

[EgoSeducted]

Sick Ass BAnd

[ten8goa]

I saw these guys (4th time) in Anderson, IN. in an auditorium about the size of my bedroom and it was a greatest hits show. I have seen every band live under the sun that is from the 80's and ther is no comparison from an arena show to auditorium show. So much more personal. Probably 300 people there, and this is what they opened with.

[GCTROJAN]

i saw tesla in myrtle beach and frank came over and hung out with me and a couple of buddies ater the show ,bummbed some smokes

[noobnoobnit]

CAKE doing war pigs I can listen to over and over....this is my last transmission on this cover

[adamce]

Tesla doing a cover-SHOCK! Oh wait, didn't Five Man Acoustic Jam have covers on it? Wasn't a "Little Suzi" a cover? Uhmm...yeah. "Into the Now" is a great CD, no doubt. Tesla is as good, or better, than they have ever been. Bands that have released cover songs..KISS, Van Halen, Motley Crue, Monster Magnet, Aerosmith, Skid Row, Metallica, Megadeth, DLR, Cream, Jimi Hendrix, Rolling Stones etc, etc. So Tesla did a cover song, they're still great!

[meon2wheelz]

Real to Reel is a great tribute to the bands we grew up with. Frank and I grew up in the same neighborhood and he is just a true rock fan. Never a poser or hair band guy. This band just loves to rock. These songs inspired the Deftones,Mark Curry, Arron(el hefe) from NOFX along with the rest of us from So.Sac.

[cygnus2001]

I've seen tesla twice. Once back in the day when they were big, and a couple years ago. They are always very tight and put on a great show. I like seeing bands do covers. Just because they are doing a cover doesnt mean they have given up. You could say the same thing if they played all their old songs.

[slimshady1111]

sounds good

[ml2355]

stick to the classics- heavens trail, love song, and the new songs

[jms980]

man this sucks. Teslas madea great comeback cd, and then they go to playing covers???? That is something they would never have done when they were making it. It goes to show that they have given up and are trying for the cash in, instead of trying to create new exciting music.

[alkyhauler]

Jesus, I have a guitar pick from Frank from a late 80'show, and Sabbath was one of the main reasons I started playing guitar. Freaking awesome.

[rockyhard1]

WHO'S TELSA????

[zipyolipsa]

Only the greatest band of their generation. Get bcopies if Mechanical Resonance(1986), Great Radio Controversy (1989), 5 Man Acoustical Jam(1990), Bust a Nut, Psychotic Supper and Into the Now. Then you will know what you have been missing. I guarantee in blood you will be hooked. REAL music BABY!!!!!

[MindFreakOnaLeash]

wow omfg excellent vid ty awesome cover of the great sabbath

[sjice69]

One of my all time favorite bands that I have not been able to see live yet.

[Joeyax]

Saw them live in Detroit. They fucking rocked!

[dvdwmplr]

Sabbath & Tesla. It don't get much better than that.
