It would have been nice if they told him of the prophecy that he would be one of the greatest singers in the world of one of the greatest bands in the world back in the day...
bahahaha!!! Oh the crimped hair...oh the cheesy backing music... Still fuckin AMAZING though!!!! (but some things have changed for the better I must say :P)
Stop comparing whos better. Myles has said in an interview he doesn't understand why people need to relate music to sport; in response to someone asking him when will we see a guitar duel from himself and mark.
Also, if their styles were any different to what they are, alter bridge would be too.
IMO myles is a much better musician anyway. A true front man, and the most modest guy in the world.
@somewayout Mark never said that! He said that Myles is a way better improviser than he is. When it comes down to the technical stuff, Myles has not a thing on Mark. They are both very extreme guitarist in different fields, that is why Myles doesn't play as many fast licks in AB, but that's where Mark shines.
@jseifert07 copied and pasted from a 2009 interview with Mark:
"Notwithstanding the fact that Myles plays guitar and Scott didn’t. Were you particularly looking for a singer who played?
No, absolutely not. When I called Myles I had no idea he could play the guitar like he does. I’m telling you honestly, I think he’s a much better guitar player than I am."
@wwedivaxx And that is true, later in the interview he also said they both bring something to the table as far as style goes. He based that off of vibrato, not technique. And it meets together perfectly. Its like Hendrix with Stevie Ray Vaughn. You can't distinguish who is better because of the different styles that they play.
most people think myles just plays back up for mark and isn't a great guitar player. well they are defenetally wrong because myles proves in this video that he could play like that from just coming out of community college.
@somewayout i think what sets them apart is tha tremonti does very typical rock things, but he does them exceptionally, and Myles does Jazz influenced things, as you ca tell from listening to the Blackbird solo and the solo to Isolation too. myles is a lot more methodical than Mark as well, he looks very carefully at the chords and structures before attemptig anything, whereas Mark just rips
this is a call to the people that have some Mayfield Four material.. I mean live videos.. If you can't put it in digital format, why you just don't do the same thing that this guy did?
put it on the tv and just recorded with a camera.
PLEASE! :)
I've always heard that there's lot of people with this material.. but c'mon don't be selfish.. ;)
@somewayout I believe that Myles is right on the line with Mark on guitar playing. Both are truly amazing, it's just that they have different styles. Mark has that great Hard rock, fast guitar playing and Myles has that more mellow, slower kind of playing that fits in perfectly with their songs. Both of them fit perfectly with each other, missing piece to eacch others puzzle
@somewayout Dude, his blackbird solo is already incredible! Just because it isn't fast or very technical doesn't mean it isn't as good as it could've been. He did exactly what he was trying to do with it. He put the emotion into the solo which is the goal of a guitarist.
@ryanevans00: And he looks great too! Until today. I saw him live with Slash in Amsterdam's Paradiso and couldn't hardly believe he's 40. Almost 41 now. I believe he has a healthy mind too.....that's why perhaps????
@ryanevans00: I think we have a misunderstanding. :) Of course he looks young and cute at that age and now he still looks younger than he is. I saw it close enough with my own eyes. And believe me, it's not that bad to be that age. It's how a person handles it. That's all and that's what I meant to say. :)
@MrsSlumdog no dobut. and he takes fantastic care of himself, too. when you see him on stage he's got bottles of water on the drum platform that he drinks. he's said he eats a lot of of veggies and mostly fish for protein. not a heavy drinker (he's said he'll have a few every now and then for an occasion, but doesn't go out regularly), doesn't smoke, no drugs, he exercises. he lives a very healthy lifestyle and it shows. good for him! he does look fantastic.
@wwedivaxx: Saw him very close by and what you say make all sense to me. It shows off and I was yet sure he's like that. I love his positivity too. I've noticed some "tough rockers" calling him "Mr Goodie Two Shoes". Well.....some people cannot handle a positive, strong attitude.
FIRST, there is nothing amazing about that playing in the video. Maybe he does better elsewhere(love his voice though). But as a guitar player who is probably a little better than Mark myself--dont underestimate marks feel for the right notes on solo's. Its something like Jimmy page has...its this innate ability to know exactly what notes will move the listener. It doesnt have to be fast or hard...it just makes you move.
@somewayout I totally agree except for what you said about his solo on "Blackbird." That's one of his best. More emotional than anything else he's ever done.
@somewayout I haven't seen it, but I guess Myles does a section on Tremonti's instructional video. If you're looking for more Myles guitar work, that may be the place.
ya see, this is why i love alter bridge. you got the amazing genius that that is Mark Tremonti as lead guitarist, and you dont realize how awesome myles is on the guitar himself until you see stuff like this there arent many lead singers who can play guitar like this with a voice to match these days. he also writes the deepest most stunning lyrics.... ps. look how young he is :D
BLESS look at him how young is he!! lol! 92...i was 2 or 3!!!
i think someone invested in some man straightners by the look of that hair...i love how into it he is! hes dancing away...look how much fun he's having!
lol...i had come into the world but i wouldnt have even known who he was...my mum was drumming wetwetwet into me...love is all around me...no no no not on here :P lol
lol he is, I was just reading an interview and he mentioned this, saying that it changed his life by getting him on stage, but he wishes it wasn't online lol.
@thejasond ah well, you could drop a thank-you-for-the-awesome-music note in his letterbox, too... hell, if you don't mind i'd love to write you one :P
tremonti's very good, but myles IS better. well, at least I like him more. but that shows how humble myles is, letting tremonti be the main guitarist.
You got to be kidding me...I mean...not because Miles can play a skilled solo that it makes him better than Tremonti...Come on...Listen to all the songs Mark has written and playied..all the different technics applied to beautifull melodies...from "higher/one last breath" to "In loving memory" and so many others...it's not a matter of opinion or taste but guitar knowlegde...
Yeah, it's a matter of guitar knowledge, and it's almost pretty obvious that Myles knows more. He plays jazzy kinda stuff, has better tone, doesn't always play fast (Mark does, even if it's a slow song), has better taste in selecting the notes And plays cleaner. Mark's great, writes awesome riffs, and I loved his solo in Find the Real, but many people would tell ya Myles is better. I hate comparing guitarists n' saying someone's better, but at least we can say Myles isn't far from Mark's level
never said he was better said they both had good qualities myles can do things mark can't do. and mark can do things myles can't do, i just said don't compare them.
not sure I'd say that they do things the other "can't" do. both are very skilled guitarists. I think it's more accurate to say that Myles excels at some things more than Mark and Mark excels at some things more than Myles. they complement each other extremely well and is a large part of what makes alter bridge such a phenomenal band. check out this vid v=z_DAPhOy2Fk at 2:19 (mark and myles dual lead/solo whatever you wanna call it) then at 3:02 it pick up and they show a close of myles playing.
i wouldn't say he's better than tremonti, but i do like him more. but i think it's really nice and humble that he gives mark the single guitar role in alter bridge. this guy's a sick singer as well
All I can say is OMG!!!!! I don't think I have laughed this hard in awhile! He sounds like Billy Ocean--I keep waiting for him to break out with "Get out of my dreams, get into my car"!!! I still love my Myles though and he rocks my socks off now!
I don't know if I'd say Myles has better technique now, but I'd say he did then. He seemed to lose interest in shredding of any kind between the two Citizen Swing CDs.
Also, it's not a stretch to think Myles had some input on some of the AB solos, he is a theory god, and that always helps.
what makes you think that he doesn't have as good technique and phrasing now as he did then? when does he really ever show it? he doesn't. he willingly takes a backseat to Mark. he throws out a solo every now and then, but nothing like this, so there really is no basis to say he isn't as good now.
just face it, Myles put together more than half of the solos in AB face it Myles is better at making solo's mark is better at making riff's. Their both great guitar players with their own good qualities. so please don't compare the two. Also for the people who know nothing about funk guitar, or guitar in general what he is playing here is extremely difficult to do, i know i play some funk guitar, he is playing on the fly.
i don't care who is doing what in this band. if you asked them both to play a solo for a song Myles would write the better sounding more technical solo.............that's what he did befor AB..So don't be a fuckin dumb ass Brad. if you play guitar your terrible because you don't know what your talking about.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
hahhahaha. there are so many people who dont know jack shit about AB. you my friend are one of them.
everything myles did before AB was total horseshit. Ive heard it all. nothing impressive. it ALL sucked. mark is a 9, myles is a 3 or 4. end of story. no one will ever change my opinion because facts are facts, and thats what i base my opinions on :-)
you fail. that is not a fact. that's your opinion, which many, including myself disagree with. the stuff Myles wrote and performed with the Mayfield Four was just awesome. I have both their Epic (as in the label) releases and love them both. I'm anxiously awaiting his solo side project he's working on while the other guys are doing the creed reunion.
bandwagon? you'd be funny if you weren't so ridiculous. I've been a fan of Myles and his guitar playing. watching his lesson on Mark's DVD is the reason I decided to pick up guitar myself. sorry if I don't live my life on youtube to see and respond to your laughable comments. Myles is absolutely on Mark's level. sorry to burst your bubble.
you must be the dumbest person in the entire world. either that or you dont know the difference between lead and rhythm. actually, myles only plays rythm guitar on a couple songs and NEVER plays lead. the only exception is the first half of the blackbird solo. thats the ONLY time myles plays any lead whatsoever. the rest of the time mark plays lead and rhythm both by himself
And you're wrong again. Myles plays rhythm on all the songs from "Blackbird", every single one, live AND in the studio. Also, because he only plays one lead, are you assuming he *can't*?? He taught guitar for 10+ years, you know, he was the "go to" guy in town for players that had outgrown everyone else (besides Joe Brasch). This is sad. You are arguing from a position of ignorance. Gain knowledge.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
HAHAHAHHAHAHAH!!!! you call that a solo!!!??????!?!?!? HAHHAHHAHAHAHAAHH!!!!! sick harmonized solo? WOW! its by far the least impressive on the album. i dunno why you still think myles is better than mark. just amazes me. its like opening your eyes at night and saying wow the sun is bright!!! makes no sense at all.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
the reason he doesnt play more leads is because mark plays leads and solos better. thats fact. im talking PHYSCIAL capability, not knowledge or theory. and no, YOURE wrong. myles does not play rhythm on every song on blackbird. he plays the half assed fills while mark plays real rhythm, OR he plays rythm while mark tears it up soloing. god youre dumb... do some research....
My god he looks way different from fifteen years ago. That man can not only sing like nobody's business, but he can shred like a god. Myles in the hood ladies and gentleman. :P
I wanna see alterbridge do some mayfield four and citizen swing. that'd be awesome!

I did not know he could play like that. I know Mark said he was good, but he realy showed that he could shred a little bit.

Cool vid. The Peavey 5150 behind him suggests that this is from at least 1991; which was their first year of production. FYI ;)

never said he was better said they both had good qualities myles can do things mark can't do. and mark can do things myles can't do, i just said don't compare them.
hanj4 2 years ago 2
not sure I'd say that they do things the other "can't" do. both are very skilled guitarists. I think it's more accurate to say that Myles excels at some things more than Mark and Mark excels at some things more than Myles. they complement each other extremely well and is a large part of what makes alter bridge such a phenomenal band. check out this vid v=z_DAPhOy2Fk at 2:19 (mark and myles dual lead/solo whatever you wanna call it) then at 3:02 it pick up and they show a close of myles playing.

i wouldn't say he's better than tremonti, but i do like him more. but i think it's really nice and humble that he gives mark the single guitar role in alter bridge. this guy's a sick singer as well
mrbig71014 2 years ago 2
All I can say is OMG!!!!! I don't think I have laughed this hard in awhile! He sounds like Billy Ocean--I keep waiting for him to break out with "Get out of my dreams, get into my car"!!! I still love my Myles though and he rocks my socks off now!

It's pretty obvious that Myles here shows he's much better than Mark technique wise and phrasing wise. Nothing against Mark of course.
BrandoPacino 2 years ago 5
I don't know if I'd say Myles has better technique now, but I'd say he did then. He seemed to lose interest in shredding of any kind between the two Citizen Swing CDs.
Also, it's not a stretch to think Myles had some input on some of the AB solos, he is a theory god, and that always helps.
rjerick 2 years ago 3
what makes you think that he doesn't have as good technique and phrasing now as he did then? when does he really ever show it? he doesn't. he willingly takes a backseat to Mark. he throws out a solo every now and then, but nothing like this, so there really is no basis to say he isn't as good now.
wwedivaxx 2 years ago 2
just face it, Myles put together more than half of the solos in AB face it Myles is better at making solo's mark is better at making riff's. Their both great guitar players with their own good qualities. so please don't compare the two. Also for the people who know nothing about funk guitar, or guitar in general what he is playing here is extremely difficult to do, i know i play some funk guitar, he is playing on the fly.
hanj4 2 years ago 3
Myles only wrote the first solo in Blackbird in Alter Bridge. I wouldn't say Myles is a better player then Mark

No, he's not gay, and his wife is way hot. If he were, however, I'm sure there'd be some happy gay boys around.

I wasn't attacking his personality to you two people who gave thumbs down, but he clearly said at 0:22 that some guy was hot. I was just wondering

Bradbssargdons. YOUR A TOOL. i've been playing for over 20 years. I know what and how things are being played. Myles is the better player period.
shredacuda 2 years ago
i don't care who is doing what in this band. if you asked them both to play a solo for a song Myles would write the better sounding more technical solo.............that's what he did befor AB..So don't be a fuckin dumb ass Brad. if you play guitar your terrible because you don't know what your talking about.

hahhahaha. there are so many people who dont know jack shit about AB. you my friend are one of them.
everything myles did before AB was total horseshit. Ive heard it all. nothing impressive. it ALL sucked. mark is a 9, myles is a 3 or 4. end of story. no one will ever change my opinion because facts are facts, and thats what i base my opinions on :-)
Bradbssargdons 2 years ago
So, the Cosmic Dust CD was horseshit? The second Citizen Swing CD? The Mayfield Four for fucks sake? All sucked? No accounting for taste I guess.
BTW, I knew Myles when he was a local musician, and I'm actually IN this video, so..research? No. No need.
rjerick 2 years ago 4
you fail. that is not a fact. that's your opinion, which many, including myself disagree with. the stuff Myles wrote and performed with the Mayfield Four was just awesome. I have both their Epic (as in the label) releases and love them both. I'm anxiously awaiting his solo side project he's working on while the other guys are doing the creed reunion.

i fail? jump on the bandwagon with everyone who says that. way to be unique. myles sucks. always has and probably always will. thats that.
Bradbssargdons 2 years ago
bandwagon? you'd be funny if you weren't so ridiculous. I've been a fan of Myles and his guitar playing. watching his lesson on Mark's DVD is the reason I decided to pick up guitar myself. sorry if I don't live my life on youtube to see and respond to your laughable comments. Myles is absolutely on Mark's level. sorry to burst your bubble.
wwedivaxx 2 years ago 3
no...bandwagon, as in, using the phrase "YOU FAIL." Good job misreading my last message!
I'll argue til the day I die, Myles is NOWHERE NEAR MARKS LEVEL and I dont see how anyone could come anywhere close to that conclusion....
Myles cant even PHYSCIALLY play as good as mark. Musical talent aside, he cant PHYSICALLY play the type of things thaT Mark can play in his sleep.
Bradbssargdons 2 years ago
Yeah sure Myles sucks hahaha... guess what happens if Mark's gear cuts off? xD

Tremonti is a great riff writing and rythem player. Myles is a better lead player. Is technique was better back in the video than it is now.
shredacuda 2 years ago
you must be the dumbest person in the entire world. either that or you dont know the difference between lead and rhythm. actually, myles only plays rythm guitar on a couple songs and NEVER plays lead. the only exception is the first half of the blackbird solo. thats the ONLY time myles plays any lead whatsoever. the rest of the time mark plays lead and rhythm both by himself
Bradbssargdons 2 years ago
And you're wrong again. Myles plays rhythm on all the songs from "Blackbird", every single one, live AND in the studio. Also, because he only plays one lead, are you assuming he *can't*?? He taught guitar for 10+ years, you know, he was the "go to" guy in town for players that had outgrown everyone else (besides Joe Brasch). This is sad. You are arguing from a position of ignorance. Gain knowledge.

Also, Myles played lead on "Damage Done" as well, that sick harmonized solo, that both of them.

HAHAHAHHAHAHAH!!!! you call that a solo!!!??????!?!?!? HAHHAHHAHAHAHAAHH!!!!! sick harmonized solo?

Bradbssargdons 2 years ago

the reason he doesnt play more leads is because mark plays leads and solos better. thats fact. im talking PHYSCIAL capability, not knowledge or theory. and no, YOURE wrong. myles does not play rhythm on every song on blackbird. he plays the half assed fills while mark plays real rhythm, OR he plays rythm while mark tears it up soloing. god youre dumb... do some research....
