I Jammed With Tom Waits !

[edinokiy]

Can you say where you took the original video from?

[DirkVomEck]

Nice piece of work...but your guitars and banjo sound too "clean"...you should record it somewhat dirtier... would fit better ;)

[welshdevondragon]

When I read your tag line I thought "you lucky bastard." THis is really awesome - cheers for that title making me click on it.

[waitswatcher]

@welshdevondragon

hehe ... thanks!

[yeahrightman23]

i must say, i am perplexed by the "sounds nice" comment. i LOVE tom waits, but i would never describe anything he has done as "nice". This (as my 9 year old son said) is awesome and terrifing sounding, but not "nice".

[waitswatcher]

@yeahrightman23

hehe ... you ( and your son ) got a point there! :-)

[BeardedHostage]

his early stuff you know martha, drunk on the moon, please call me baby. those are nice

[smcdaid075]

ohhhhh, was totally feelin the banjo work on this, then read at the end it was you. awesome. im thinking on getting one soon

[waitswatcher]

@smcdaid075

thanks! enjoy! ww

[MotorSickler]

Damn good form,old bean!Hats off and a howdy to boot! I was convinced til the end.

[rantantara]

this is lovely, i just totally blissed out while listening. for a few minutes i was somewhere other than a library. thanks for that.

[waitswatcher]

@rantantara

thanks for listening! :-)

[ferhot18]

[happyjessus]

jarmoush role is very important on this vid. nice guitars and banjo. i loved your way!!!

[slowbreakfast]

made me think of the movie Dead Man, the mood

[filip13badday]

great performance by tom waits it sounds awesome

[mrkeelin]

[samuelmichaud]

Really well done, i'm kinda curious of seeing the original video now. Just percusssions hmm..

Oh well, terrific!

[BeatNick13]

sounds nice!

You look like Kramer

Im jealous

[waitswatcher]

hehe ... you mean: Tom looks like Kramer?!

[BeatNick13]

Oh... Oh I get it now. I just started listening to him so I didn't really know what he looked like, I thought that was you. I get it now. Yeah I guess he does.

But still, nice job!

[waitswatcher]

thank you very much! :-))

[Jcolinsol]

And Ron Perlman

[minespatch]

@BeatNick13 Which Kramer? John Kramer?

[ThePaleHorseman5]

lol you almost had when i read tag line....It would definitely be awesome to actually jam with 'ol Tomcat though.

[waitswatcher]

true words ... :-)

[achteutis]

Great mix, man!!!!

[v0k3y]

I dig it, young fella.

[waitswatcher]

hehe ... cheers!

[boxpilot]

fake. i seen his megaphone and it got no red on it

[waitswatcher]

hehe ... good one!

[roalvarez1]

good work, nice feel

[H4t3rr]

guitar is perfect  ;o

[YoppyKyabetsu]

First time I have seen Tom Waits banging the drums. Very cool to watch. You mixed in nicely.

[waitswatcher]

yeah, it's a nice little video of tom!

[mothsmoke]

I didn't expect to get rick rolled over friggin tom waits.

come on now...

[waitswatcher]

erm ... what?!

[evensteven69]

Nice job mate. It's perfect.

[waitswatcher]

thanks! :-)

[JethBroh]

cool

[everydayjack]

fucking genius

[waitswatcher]

yeah ... tom surely is! :-D

[AintNoDevil]

Ummm I's wondering if you know of/have any good Waits tabs...I've only found 1 website that has a few good ones the rest I've found seem to be really wrong...Keeping in mind I AM NOT a great guitar play I'm not even a good one

P.S. Awesome video...I wish I could see more of these

[madpop17]

I know you said you're not great but trust me, if you take the time to piece the stuff together yourself (or even fix the tabs) you will improve a LOT. It is worth trying.

Otherwise you can pay me to do it ;)

[himrawkz]

911 tabs has alot of them but i dont know of what quality since i only play bass, not guitar. hope this helps

[qmono]

great work!

[stephanie0929]

I am doing a modern piece to this song with my dance studio, it is pretty amazing.

[waitswatcher]

sounds interesting ... do you have a video of it?

[stephanie0929]

There is not a video of this piece yet. We just started choreographing it, but it will be very unique.

[septimusprime2008]

i also would like to see this! have fun

[Alteredtaint]

Ah, it's alright. Needs more cowbell though.

[somebodysomething]

Brilliant :) That's amazing and ur lucky :)

[waitswatcher]

cheers!

:-)

[1andoneis3]

nice guitar work man...

[waitswatcher]

thanks!

[bourgeoisscum]

I've never seen Tom on the drums before! Neat!

[waitswatcher]

:-)

[mikeypb1]

neat, do you know if this was on a dvd or something? i am really intrigued to the production of this album anyway i'd love to see more of this. (i don't fancy a long, arduous journey into the depths of the net)

[waitswatcher]

this video was available for download (for cash) from some obscure internet site, along with 3 other short snippets. I doubt this is anything official, or that JJ or TW gave their ok for it.

I for myself didnt buy it but get a copy from a good friend... dont know if the files are still there for download, I think rather not.

ww

[bill3979]

The next time somebody tells me I'm crazy, often with a real look of concern on their face, which is about every 10 minutes, I'm gonna show them this. You are REALLY fucking crazy. And this is hilarious.

[waitswatcher]

Hahaha ... my pleasure ...

thanks, ww

[BlackstarSirius]

Oh, and what's the first note of this song? I have the progression down, but I don't know the notes. :X

[waitswatcher]

If only I could remember, I was so much focused on Tom, had no time to think about keys and notes and stuff...

:-D

ww

[BlackstarSirius]

Where did you get this footage of Tom Waits? :O

[waitswatcher]

a friend of mine dug it out from the depths of the net.

[megaplayah]

Great Playing. Is that a clawhammer banjo`?

[waitswatcher]

thanks.

its a tenor banjo.

as far as I know, clawhammer is a playing technique of the right hand, not a banjo type.

:-)

ww

[raeg0ul]

i understand you wanting to post your own stuff only on your youtube, but atleast pass on the original video to someone else to post.  This is a gem.

[myfagan]

hahahha good stuff

[RPCM1987]

you are insane

[waitswatcher]

:-)

I take that as a compliment!

cheers, ww

[Cresta59]

Excellent stuf !!!!

[jaoleonard]

Would you mind posting this video without you playing along?

[waitswatcher]

I dont post any pure Waits footage on YT, this one is already an exception.

[majamaja3333]

That's really not nice of you and let alone consistent. Why is it then ok to post it with you playing along? I don't understand "the pure" and "non pure" Waits viedo...

I am grateful for this upload all the same.

Cheers

[waitswatcher]

not nice?

well, I think nobody is bound to post anything here.

my channel is for my own stuff, simply as that.

this video is a bit of a joke, as the title reveals. Its a virtual play along, so that's the reason why the master himself is included here. Other than that, I only post my own recordings here on youtube.

that's what I was trying to say by using the word 'exception'.

ww

[majamaja3333]

I understand that,i like the vid and if you didnt mention it was you playing i probably wouldnt realize it.

What i dont get though is why you wont upload the "clean" version.

But its your right to choose weather you want to. No hard feelings.

xx

[mrriesling]

Fantastic. A true genius at work.

[waitswatcher]

hmmm .... your mother's ass was much tastier...

[DardisMusic]

Great great video!

[fafarajfa]

ahahah I like this garage... good think you do there !!!

I would like to be there ...héhééh

[waitswatcher]

hehe...thank you.

I would like to be there too.... :-)

[Maja6606]

Haha cool! :-)

[4mrpank4]

Great job!

[duvtit]

Once again...very, very, very phukin' cool!

[sistaspooky1013]

WOW greatly done!

[MissesJaneDoe]

Interessante Sache!

[aosonho]

Great!! :)

[bennehbennehbenneh]

Hehe, normally I would accost someone for bastardising a waits track, but you did really well :).

[Kenunothewavemaster]

you got me! I was having a moment..

[chibiabos]

Great job! This is really good stuff!

[MelleStar]

That's pretty cool! :o)

[peglegsam]

[Silveragematt]

That's great! Hahaha

[KrisShred]

Yeah, you're so talented. Cool video :D

Peruecke aufgesetzt was? haha..

[realawareofvacuity]

Great vid! I was insanely jealous until I read the description

[surfraptor]

Cool! Hope Tom sees this Pascal, he might invite you on his next tour...

[AlliBee]

I knew you'd make it one day! hehe.. great vid!
