im still going to use purple trees as our band name,i already did our art work and im not changing it just because its a song name,not a band name. when i cheeked to see if the BAND NAME, purple trees was taken i found this vid. and it didnt change my mind ....... but i must say good song
seriously you guys are awesome...hats off to you....I love jam band stuff like Phish and Primus mostly, your original tunes are awesome....great vibe to them.....you will seriously go somewhere with your music...this is only the beginning....
@ Mclovin7831 that would be a partial cover of phish's "tweezer reprise", in my humble opinion the greatest show-closing song in the history of music! seen it done by phish about 5x, gives me goosebumps every time!
your guys are amazing maybe chaneg there band name but that just my opgion I love seing young kids play good music 4:09 is my fav part wish is was longer
wow, you guys can even sing, you may end up being better than phish someday! ;) i feel like a hopeless groupie saying this, but i've never seen ppl 2x your age with that much ability! keep it up, i'm SO jacked for the 1st/next mclovins show in the ohio/michigan/indiana area!
its a shame what sells in the music industry never ceases to amaze me will admit the guitar has that trippy sound im diggin that bass has it too the drums seem to simple and vocals are shit. just my opinion so dont get all dick hurt when you read it
Whaaaaaaat, I didn't realize they were so young, figured it was just baby face because I didn't expect this kind of talent from kids. Incredible stuff.
lol!! these guys PISS! all over the jonas brothers!! the jones brothers are a bunch of stupid poser rockstar teens who are just big cos of the the hype and crap .. these guys actually are real musicians and not a bunch of posers! well done boys :-)
As part of the Phish Fanbase, you 'kids' are so sick, please don't let anything interfere with your dreams, for you have the talent; which will only get better!
yall are forgetting... they are young. They will be great in a few years and you'll take back what you say about them now. I'd love to see you play a phish song even remotely close to that.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
What the fuck with the ending!!!!!!!!!!! and why the fuck are you trying to go over all styles before ending the song!!! typical on kids... watch the fucking timing...
You guys totally deserve to be on TV. You guys are THE SHIT. Seriously, McLovin' on the left is the most talented 14 year old guitarist I've ever seen. Maybe even the most talented 14 year old in general. This is some sick stuff.
You guys know you rock.
If any of you guys haven't seen their their cover of You Enjoy Myself go watch it now. These guys can hold their with the best out there.
Hope you guys read your comments, cause you guys got soul!!! Funky baby, oh yeah!!! You guys are going places where some can only dream of!!! Keep it up!!!
You guys should get jack black as your singer like that movie! JK, you guys are sick, wish I was 1/2 as good as the guitar player 14 yrs old!!! Stay off drugs and be the next Trey, honestly you can be better no joke.
Damn you guys rock for your age. I've don't listen to phish that much but you sound like DMB and GD kind of stuff which is great. Especially because it will be gents like you that make jam music come back into the spot light.
Phish has always been one of my favorite and Trey Anastasio, Mike Gordon and John Fishman would be proud as hell to know they have prodigy's as talented as yourselves. Be proud and the sky is the limit. Unreal so young but so talented. Instant fan guys!! Amazing!!!!!
bigmancusi44 u have to think though that the lyrics are gonna get better as they get older. u see more of life and think of creative things to sing about in different ways......whats important right now is they rock
I really, really enjoyed this song! It was played well, and congrats on not speeding up due to being excited at being on TV. I really liked the last half of the song. All the parts meshed really well, not only in composition but in sound as well. Very nice!
the rock at the end was better than the start. A little shakey in the beginning but thats ok cuz it was your first TV gig. Overall great job guys, keep up the good work.
how dare they end the show before the mclovins are done.
