First heard about them 4 weeks ago, just came back from their concert in Hamburg and DEFINITELY gonna see the next show! SImply amazing. Crowd was amazing too, great mood... Such a good time!
@bob0tom TBH I was listening to this song earlier (about 20 minutes ago, not here, but on media player) and suddenly I heard Stevie Ray Vaughan, where I didn't before (who was, as I'm sure you're aware, like Hendrix but more bluesy) . Goes to show how good music just continues to surprise you with its depth. So yes, you're totally right :D
OH MAN THIS ARE THE BETTERS GUITARRIST I EVER SEEN BETTER THAN SLASH, KIT AND ALL THE CRAZY JAPANESE OF DRAGONFORCE/ AYALA VIDA LOCO ESTO SON LOS MEJORES GUITARRISTAS QUE E VISTO QUE SLASH CHINOS LOCOS DE DRAGONFORCE O KIT LOS MEJORES XD
My wife doesn't understand how I can like "music that doesn't have any words to it"... *sigh* she's got no concept of how hard it is for these guys to be this in sync with each other, to make music with layers to it and complexity and all the stuff you can't even put a title to... Rodrigo and Gabriela have passion and skills that took them years to perfect and they create something that is beautiful and amazing. My wife doesn't get it, but I suppose I love her anyways :)
@TorressssssME Alright, you've convinced me! Begone non-Rodrigo-y-Grabriela-loving-woman! And I'm keeping the youtube and facebook accounts, tell your high priced lawyers that it's not negotiable.
Keep loving your wife brother! She doesnt understand whats going on over here! But thats ok, if she is a good woman, forgive her. As for this duo, they were paired up in Heaven!!!
@matrixinterface She'll understand why in time, don't give up. It takes some time, but you have a life time to convince her... Show her, Steve Vai or something... Maybe Bucket head? Have a great day!
@jmt1000 thanks man, already tried Buckethead and Joe Satriani and she just doesn't get it. Apples and oranges I guess! Oh well, no one is perfect (altho there are some who are close to perfection with guitar, I say close because no one WANTS to be perfect)
@matrixinterface You'll get there, Try Rush. Anyway, yeah, how much would it suck to play ALL notes perfectly. It would make you get bored... I for one love imperfection and all partners have them, and that's what makes them special, if that comes off as a little cliche'd it's still true.
@jmt1000 Yeah, Yo Yo Ma (the great chello-ist) said he decided to play a piece perfectly once. He said it sucked and he never tried to do it ever again. You've got to have feeling and not just hit the notes right. One thing I love about R&G is the way they perform together. You see them watch each other (even if it's just a quick glance every so often) and work off each other.
@matrixinterface Yeah, I agree with everything you said. R&G are great musicians. And it seems like they have nothing you give them crap for. As far as they are concerned, I'm glad they give my Mexican Culture a good Rock Image. I stumbled across them completely by chance and they warped me. Especially Gabriela, She's AMAZING, I played this on Rock Band on a demo, and now i'm going to buy the song. As far as perfect music, Live wouldn't be live if it was perfect right?
@matrixinterface ...Well if she doesn't come around on R ye G ... mime her the divorce papers. I drove all my friends and family nuts with these guys after catching them on Late Night last year---they're unbelievable---don't miss some of the generous lessons to their technique that can be found here on You Tube...given by the source.
@matrixinterface these guys have more passion and soul and this music has more passion then most music with lyrics and I can see you understand that. Not everyone understands haha

Be happy in your own world, let her have heres", wanna stay married, enjoy that you have your own voices and styles, I know, I have been there LOL..

So your saying Buster Voodoo is better than whoever did Bustin a Cap. You prob cant even play an instrument. Fucking barney

Here's what I don't get. Isn't this the place where we all let the world know what our thoughts and opinions are? Sorry to all the rap lovers out there who are so mortally offended at my comments that they tell me to "fuck off and die". Having studied music for 35 years my OPINION is that it is much harder to do what Rod & Gab are doing thatn what current rappers are doing. They aren't in the same league. But "fuck off and die" for stating an opinion? What's next? A jihad on Rock N Roll?
Hah, don't worry about it man. People can't seem to comprehend talent these days. It's a god damn fact that guitar playing like this takes more talent then speaking a view words and then adding autotune and a beat to it like most rap artists do nowadays. I would love to hear someone explain how that's false. Don't get me wrong, I have seen some talented rap artists too, but you can't tell me that most rap artists nowadays have little to no talent whatsoever.
well jimmydonut, the thing is that we ARE expressing our thoughts and opinions. sure, telling you to "fuck off and die" goes a little too far, however, dismissing the entire rap genre as talentless is also uncalled for.
see, you tried to prove through objective means (music studies, where they went to, "bustin a cap") that all rap = crap compared to artists such as rodrigo y gabriela.
Hey FL. Thanks for the calm response. And, also, good to see a Tom Petty on ur site. My point is this - as no one seems to be getting. I'm more than sure there are "aritists" ala Dylan among the rap genre. But I think we are all too quick to call something "art". Then when someone questions this the masses start in with the "who the hell are u" response. You would have to live thru the creation of rock and Motown - yes they both have their share of non-artistis - to appreciate what i'm sayin'.
the problems that i have with this is that talent is very difficult to define (which comes down to preference), being ignorant about it (main support being little wayne aka. mainstream crap. its like saying some band such as nickelback epitomizes rock), the fact that you complain about personal attacks on the internet (who cares?), and how irrelevant your comments are on this vid. comparing artists within a genre would be more acceptable, but even then it would still be very difficult.
Here is what is lost on your age group: you don't see the dumbing down of this culture. Great t.v. with hard-core creative writing is replaced by Jon n Kate, the Khardashian's, Housewives, etc. Great bands and musicians are being replaced by rap -which has their shinging stars but doesn't require the skill actual musicians and "song writers" need to put a, get this, MELODY with a message. Have fun with it. Absolutely. But your age group stands to inherit this "culture" of a dumbed down society.
i agree completely that our current culture is going to crap. however, i wouldnt put rap to blame. sure it has it's share of crappy artists, but thats on the RADIO (what you have been referring to). believe it or not, almost EVERYTHING on the radio is crap and dumbs down society. artists get on the radio merely for their marketability, not talent. and since when was having a melody a prerequisite for music? i thought it could come in all forms, its like criticizing this for not having vocals
WOW .... that is an awesome live act. I rarely see guitar players without picks, and is a perfect example of how it allows for infinite sound variations.
Here's me thinking @jimmydonut did something wrong, whereas it's the total opposite - everyone having a go at jimmydonut is wrong. He's exactly right - rappers are nothing compared to people like this. Yes, there are talented rappers out there, but half the time they rap about meaningless shit just to get bag loads of money. You can tell with these two that they have so much passion for what they're doing. Shove that up your "bitches and ho's."
no,jimmydonut is definitely not right. are you saying a talented rapper is nothing compared to talented musicians like these? no, thats based on preference and not a declaration. sure there are crappy rappers but there are crappy forms of every musician. the problem with jimmy's example of 50 cent and little wayne are that they do not epitomize the rap genre. little wayne and 50 cent are radio artists which the majority of radio artists, despite their genre, suck.
@fatlouiethebeast you must admit though that a lot more talent is required in writing music and learning music theory and ur instrument than in having a studio make ur music for you
yes, you are true that writing music takes more talent than merely performing something that someone else made for you. as for my argument, that has absolutely nothing to do with this. what you are referring to is the radio artists, which studios create music for them despite their genre.
learning music theory, despite what you believe, requires no talent. being proficient in your instrument takes talent, as does being a proficient rapper. im not sure what your point is.
@fatlouiethebeast my point is that about 95% of rappers are radio artists and very little rap is actually made by the rapper and very little rap drifts out of the sex drugs and money theme but this is music and while learning music theory takes no talent, being able to put what youve learned in music theory together to make a quality piece takes a lot more talent than talking about 'fucking hoes'
really, 95%? where did you get this statistical information? maybe the other way around. if you want to make a point, actually have some knowledge of it before you try to argue about it. rap is expression (not all forms, just look outside 50 cent or other similar artists) and very technical in terms of beat, meter, and rhyme. dont be ignorant
let me ask, how do you measure talent? from your comments, ive concluded that you cannot see talent past your narrow minded perception of it. in my opinion, talent comes in various forms, not one being superior to another.
honestly, i prefer this type of music to rap. however, this is a preference, meaning its subjective rather than objective. you trying to prove this requires more "talent" makes me laugh. this the point i am trying to make.
@fatlouiethebeast in my opinion talent is what takes more merit and skill to accomplish. This takes a lot more merit than even a good rapper because this is more skill and merit than some one speaking quickly about their life(yes speaking because that isnt even singing) and making a few beats
wow, there is absolutely no point in arguing with you. one, your definition is incredibly vague and ambiguous (merit and skill? merit is one one has accomplished, anyone can have merit. skill is pretty much a synonym for talent, which again cannot be compared to through such different genres). two, there goes all the poets too, seeing how rhythm and rhyme mean nothing. three, since when was singing a prerequisite for good music? god, please stop. its so bad
The difference between this kind of thing (that takes talent) and something like rap is that given a few minutes I could pretty much "sing" most rap songs. It would take me YEARS to be able to do what these guys do, and even then, probably wouldn't be able to. Sure, I might not be able to compose a rap song, but hey, neither do most of the "rap artists" out there, they pay people to do that for them. That's why this takes talent to perform and rap really doesn't take much. And that's that.
I think we can safely conclude that jimmydonut is completely ignorant and should not argue about something he has bare knowledge of. seriously? little wayne and 50 cent? what a moron.
I'm not sure who to respond to first. I am positive those who got offended at my comment are under the age where you can remember Lennon/McCartney, CSN&Y, The Temptations, Dylan, etc. NWA? Are you kidding? Merit? Sorry, I'll say it again - rap is part of the dumbing down of America - right there with reality t.v. instead of a show with creative writing. But - it seems to be what the masses want and we all know the mob is usually right.

@jimmydonut Are you trying to hate on them or like them. This last paragraph doesnt make since ."While I can rhyme I would rather spend my time becoming more skilled at dointg that WHILE playing a musical instrument and coodinating it with the BAND. "Bustin' a Cap" doesn't compare to Buster Voodoo.
So your saying Buster Voodoo is better than whoever did Bustin a Cap. You prob cant even play an instrument. Fucking barney

Here's what I don't get. Isn't this the place where we all let the world know what our thoughts and opinions are? Sorry to all the rap lovers out there who are so mortally offended at my comments that they tell me to "fuck off and die". Having studied music for 35 years my OPINION is that it is much harder to do what Rod & Gab are doing thatn what current rappers are doing. They aren't in the same league. But "fuck off and die" for stating an opinion? What's next? A jihad on Rock N Roll?

Hah, don't worry about it man. People can't seem to comprehend talent these days. It's a god damn fact that guitar playing like this takes more talent then speaking a view words and then adding autotune and a beat to it like most rap artists do nowadays. I would love to hear someone explain how that's false. Don't get me wrong, I have seen some talented rap artists too, but you can't tell me that most rap artists nowadays have little to no talent whatsoever.

well jimmydonut, the thing is that we ARE expressing our thoughts and opinions. sure, telling you to "fuck off and die" goes a little too far, however, dismissing the entire rap genre as talentless is also uncalled for.
see, you tried to prove through objective means (music studies, where they went to, "bustin a cap") that all rap = crap compared to artists such as rodrigo y gabriela.

Hey FL. Thanks for the calm response. And, also, good to see a Tom Petty on ur site. My point is this - as no one seems to be getting. I'm more than sure there are "aritists" ala Dylan among the rap genre. But I think we are all too quick to call something "art". Then when someone questions this the masses start in with the "who the hell are u" response. You would have to live thru the creation of rock and Motown - yes they both have their share of non-artistis - to appreciate what i'm sayin'.

the problems that i have with this is that talent is very difficult to define (which comes down to preference), being ignorant about it (main support being little wayne aka. mainstream crap. its like saying some band such as nickelback epitomizes rock), the fact that you complain about personal attacks on the internet (who cares?), and how irrelevant your comments are on this vid. comparing artists within a genre would be more acceptable, but even then it would still be very difficult.

Here is what is lost on your age group: you don't see the dumbing down of this culture. Great t.v. with hard-core creative writing is replaced by Jon n Kate, the Khardashian's, Housewives, etc. Great bands and musicians are being replaced by rap -which has their shinging stars but doesn't require the skill actual musicians and "song writers" need to put a, get this, MELODY with a message. Have fun with it. Absolutely. But your age group stands to inherit this "culture" of a dumbed down society.

i agree completely that our current culture is going to crap. however, i wouldnt put rap to blame. sure it has it's share of crappy artists, but thats on the RADIO (what you have been referring to). believe it or not, almost EVERYTHING on the radio is crap and dumbs down society. artists get on the radio merely for their marketability, not talent. and since when was having a melody a prerequisite for music? i thought it could come in all forms, its like criticizing this for not having vocals

Here's me thinking @jimmydonut did something wrong, whereas it's the total opposite - everyone having a go at jimmydonut is wrong. He's exactly right - rappers are nothing compared to people like this. Yes, there are talented rappers out there, but half the time they rap about meaningless shit just to get bag loads of money. You can tell with these two that they have so much passion for what they're doing. Shove that up your "bitches and ho's."

@RuhBuhJuh1
no,jimmydonut is definitely not right. are you saying a talented rapper is nothing compared to talented musicians like these? no, thats based on preference and not a declaration. sure there are crappy rappers but there are crappy forms of every musician. the problem with jimmy's example of 50 cent and little wayne are that they do not epitomize the rap genre. little wayne and 50 cent are radio artists which the majority of radio artists, despite their genre, suck.

@fatlouiethebeast you must admit though that a lot more talent is required in writing music and learning music theory and ur instrument than in having a studio make ur music for you
FerrariGallardo147 1 year ago
@FerrariGallardo147
yes, you are true that writing music takes more talent than merely performing something that someone else made for you. as for my argument, that has absolutely nothing to do with this. what you are referring to is the radio artists, which studios create music for them despite their genre.
learning music theory, despite what you believe, requires no talent. being proficient in your instrument takes talent, as does being a proficient rapper. im not sure what your point is.
fatlouiethebeast 1 year ago
@fatlouiethebeast my point is that about 95% of rappers are radio artists and very little rap is actually made by the rapper and very little rap drifts out of the sex drugs and money theme but this is music and while learning music theory takes no talent, being able to put what youve learned in music theory together to make a quality piece takes a lot more talent than talking about 'fucking hoes'
FerrariGallardo147 1 year ago
@FerrariGallardo147
really, 95%? where did you get this statistical information? maybe the other way around. if you want to make a point, actually have some knowledge of it before you try to argue about it. rap is expression (not all forms, just look outside 50 cent or other similar artists) and very technical in terms of beat, meter, and rhyme. dont be ignorant
fatlouiethebeast 1 year ago
@FerrariGallardo147
let me ask, how do you measure talent? from your comments, ive concluded that you cannot see talent past your narrow minded perception of it. in my opinion, talent comes in various forms, not one being superior to another.
honestly, i prefer this type of music to rap. however, this is a preference, meaning its subjective rather than objective. you trying to prove this requires more "talent" makes me laugh. this the point i am trying to make.
fatlouiethebeast 1 year ago
@fatlouiethebeast in my opinion talent is what takes more merit and skill to accomplish. This takes a lot more merit than even a good rapper because this is more skill and merit than some one speaking quickly about their life(yes speaking because that isnt even singing) and making a few beats
FerrariGallardo147 1 year ago
@FerrariGallardo147
wow, there is absolutely no point in arguing with you. one, your definition is incredibly vague and ambiguous (merit and skill? merit is one one has accomplished, anyone can have merit. skill is pretty much a synonym for talent, which again cannot be compared to through such different genres). two, there goes all the poets too, seeing how rhythm and rhyme mean nothing. three, since when was singing a prerequisite for good music? god, please stop. its so bad
fatlouiethebeast 1 year ago
The difference between this kind of thing (that takes talent) and something like rap is that given a few minutes I could pretty much "sing" most rap songs. It would take me YEARS to be able to do what these guys do, and even then, probably wouldn't be able to. Sure, I might not be able to compose a rap song, but hey, neither do most of the "rap artists" out there, they pay people to do that for them. That's why this takes talent to perform and rap really doesn't take much. And that's that.

I think we can safely conclude that jimmydonut is completely ignorant and should not argue about something he has bare knowledge of. seriously? little wayne and 50 cent? what a moron.

I'm not sure who to respond to first. I am positive those who got offended at my comment are under the age where you can remember Lennon/McCartney, CSN&Y, The Temptations, Dylan, etc. NWA? Are you kidding? Merit? Sorry, I'll say it again - rap is part of the dumbing down of America - right there with reality t.v. instead of a show with creative writing. But - it seems to be what the masses want and we all know the mob is usually right.
