  • Some guitarists just aren't lead players

  • @WeveGotNoTimeToLose lol u suck

  • @bman462 Why? It's the thought that counts I'm not dissing him, just stating a fact.

  • "It is written in guitar language, and I did it because he used to tell me we needed to put guitar solos in Korn. So, this song's for him, and to him. It's saying how much I miss him. Even though we weren't too close, his very friendly personality had a great impact on me." - Head

  • he made a tribute to dime for several reasons: honoring a fallen friend/brother in both life and music, b/c he respected dimebag, and b/c he dime was an influence on his musical life, both with Korn and before it.

  • come see Head LIVE at springjamfest 2011 May 14th w POD - advance tickets $15 at itickets.com

  • im still confused as to why he used a double neck guitar on this "tribute" and only used ONE NECK

  • i dont think its simple, it sounds from the heart

  • was it really necessary to use a double neck guitar for something a standard neck guitar needs...hedidnt use the 2nd tuning at all for this song so why not give him a normal guitar unless he's trying to buff his image or something..guys got talent though who woulda known from Korn

  • @brocstarr He knows how to solo, idk why people think that he didn't know because of being in Korn. In Korn, the scenario was that they didn't want one person to be the star.

  • @Blitzzkreigg yet the star was jonathan davis....just saying they never really showed anything "special" in Korn so how else would we know whether they are capable musicians unless we hear them outside of Korn. No bashing on Korn as I was a huge fan in H.S.

  • @brocstarr You think JD was the star? I mean yea, all singers in bands get a little bit more of spotlight than the rest of the band but I never really saw him as really the star of the group.

  • Very good Guitarist, I would have to agree. Coming to Christ was the best move Brian could have made, but Dimebag wasn't all bad, I can think of more evil people in this world ( any politician for example!)

  • Haha Amen to that. Don't forget Cops too.

  • Power = Corruption.

  • right on

  • @Shaun102578

    My god, I don't even...*facepalm*

  • @Shyuum don't hurt yourself.

  • @Shaun102578

    *thumbs up for your stupidity*

  • @Shyuum Thank You =)

  • hey. that giutarist from extreme should try to play for pantera.

  • i think its quite beautiful...

  • HeaD is a DAMN good guitar player.

  • Your kidding rite? You honestly dont know why hes doing a Dimebag tribute song? You do not no metal for shit if you dont know why he is playing this song as a Dimebag tribute. I hate ignorant people

  • thank you

  • dimebag also died 1 year before this tribute! Dimebag was one of the greatest! R.I.P.

  • i don't think so actually this was played after Brian quit Korn and that was in 05

  • beautiful!

    Keep rockin, bro!

    a :p

  • He rock! :D

  • best solo ever

  • Dude look what brian is doing with his life now, Hes doing amazing things that are so much better than playingg in a rock band in front of millions and doing drugs all day. I admire what hes doing in india, I admire him for caring about his daughter enought to give up drugs and the life that was destroying his.

  • I Don't Doubt That There's A part In Him Thats STabs Him Everyday For Leavin Korn, And U KNOW He Still Uses!!!

  • dipshit

  • I agree with SmelMyFinger, music and drugs do go together, fuck all these loser muso's that find Jesus and clean themselves up.

  • Fuck yea, man.

  • you are stupid .... yeah soory

  • fuck you, He lost his wife to drugs and HE almost died because of drugs. he quit using for his daughter, so fuck you you loser. Drugs and music shouldnt have to go together, alchohol sure why not. not drugs.

  • fuck you. If you think music and drugs Have to go together you better fucking get a better outlook on being a musicin that is if you are one.

  • ha ha ha thats funny man. You crack me up. Grow up

  • @taylorfuckedkyle Don't swear!

  • @taylorfuckedkyle dude STFU! you dont need to do drugs!

  • @taylorfuckedkyle dude STFU! you dont need to do drugs!

  • you are aware that alcohol is a drug as well, right? it may be legal, but that doesn't make it harmless. think about the amount of violence and death that is alcohol-related, like getting into accidents while drunk driving.

  • pff oh well?? I'd rather be an alchoholic then addicted to heroine or Coke.

  • i'd rather would'nt be either

  • actually he and his daughter's mother were not married at the time of her death. but still i agree 100% with what you say my friend

  • no matter what these losers say you at least have a clue about life

  • woops, sorry sorry. aparantly i cant read

  • no problem. I support metal for life \m/

  • you're obviously an ignorant moron dude. .. now bring on your shallow rebuttal insult filled with profanity because you're to retarded to think of anything with any substance...i'm guessing you're gonna go with fag...

  • I replied to Spraykruger's idiotism buddy!

  • Did you know..?

    thats a fuckin lie u dumb ass piece of shit. your just jealous and an ignorant asshole tryin to ripe on a guitar legend. go fuck yourself you cockless peice of shit.

  • Despite What All The People On Here Think Bout Brian In A NEGATIVE Way, U'll 1 NEVER Be Able To Play As Giid As Him, And 2nd Kan NEVER EVEN DREAM OF PLAYING As Good As Him, So Quit Hatin On Him, Shoot Some More Heroin Up Ur Ass And Listen To His Fuckin Music Before U Go Criticizing His Work. ONE OF THE BEST GUITAR PLAYERS HANDS DOWN!!!

  • Comment removed

  • I can't stand all these washed-up rock stars who "find Jesus" and start writing shitty music. Artists are more often than not completely fucked up in the head and partially insane - because they are in touch with other creative realms of the mind that the average person is not. Drugs and music go together. Period. If he wants to straighten up so he can raise his kids, fine. But I'm sick of hearing all this praise about him growing as a musician, because he's not.

  • Drugs and music do NOT go together. What goes together is creativity, which is what KoRn had before they got signed and started to lose their ability to maintain creativity. It happens to all bands.

  • AT LEAST 80% of all the greatest rock bands, Korn included, were getting fucked up all the time when they were writing their best stuff. I will admit that it usually always results in some sort of crash where the creative energy tapers off, but the initial gems are always worth it. Its their choice and they know what they're doing - Sex, Drugs, and Rock and Roll go together but all these born agains are trying to convince everyone otherwise.

  • aside MUNKY? who do you think taught MUNKY how to play???? Brian Welch did. do is MUNKY better than Brian Welch? I dont think so.

  • aside from MUNKY,HEAD,and VAN HALEN,DIMEBAG was my guitar inspireation, and this makes me miss him so much. rest in peace,DIMEBAG.HEAD,thank you for this tribute.

  • Head is awesome, but i dont care for the guitar hes using i dont really like double guitars, but oh well lol hes awesome i loved Head's book =P

  • is there a way to get this on mp3 format? Is there a way to record the audio from this video to the computer?

  • first off, why ask me? just wondering and yes, use the youtube downloader to download the video and use the converter (from the youtube downloader) and select MP3 FORMAT

  • Im very new to youtube! I was just asking because I am a huge fan of head's and I just wanted to listen in the car. Thanks a lot for posting this video, and helping me out with the mp3 thing!

  • very nice

  • Brian Welch is my hero. i admire him so much for what he did. i mean when he left Korn. (my favorite band). he left a world wide known band to live a better life with his daughter and get away from the drugs. and he's such a great musician. this guy cannot be expressed with words.. he's just great :)

  • wow beautiful =D

  • dude this is nice. its cool to hear him play something a little different than what we usually hear him play. And plus its his own personal tribute to Dime, good job Head!!

  • Me too jackass! and also I play in a band like Korn in Costa Rica, I play 5 strings bass and 7 strings guitar, are you play that too sucker?

  • Sometimes the simplest tunes are the best

  • Yeah but that "knowledge" you have didn't really get you past bashing musicians on youtube did it? This guy made music that people respected but you tend to think otherwise I guess.

  • It got me much farther than "bashing musicians on youtube". It also made me realize that this song fucking blows.

  • It obviously didn't get you far enough, as you are using words that don't even exist. "Farther"? Give me a break.

  • Definitions of farther on the Web: * to or at a greater extent or degree or a more advanced stage * more distant in especially space or time; "they live in the farther house"

    Go back to first grade, cunt.

  • Congratulations for actually spending the time to go look it up. I just pulled that out of my ass. -laughs- Anyways, yes..a lot of rock musicians DO drugs, but not all of them do. Your argument is that in order for music to be good, you have to do drugs first. Nah, I know some brilliant music that had no drugs involved. On top of that, why are you blaming Brian? It's how the media portrays him to be. He has done smaller interviews where he doesn't even brag about the religion aspect of life.

  • Hey asshole are you a guitar player to say that?

  • Hey asshole, yes I am. Are you?

  • Guitar is a double neck 14-string and a 7-string. That's got to be a bitch to tune!

  • sexy guitar

  • I love, love ,LOVE this song

  • Truly Inspirational Guitar Player..

    From Clown to this.. Just Perfect playing.

  • beautiful song... i don't use that word much, but this truly is a beautiful song.

    so where's the new album, Head?

  • 9-9-08 MAN!!!

  • Dude korn is like my favorite band so dont get me wrong i like head and all....but why use the double neck guitar when he doesn't even use the 12 string

  • actually the top is a 14 string! it was used in one of their songs "alone i break".

  • he used it because tht guitar produces a different sunds than other guitars..you wuldnt have ahd the same affect with say....a flying V

  • plus it looks cool

  • Dimebag was awesome and he died, so why not someone else awsome write a cool solo song in tribute.

  • Thats it danny...

  • this is one of the greatest guitar instrumentals i've ever heard.almost,to me,sounds kinda blues style.

  • can the people who are arguing just shut up and enjoy the music, please?!

  • its a spirit thing, just like music itself, when u hear certain lyrics or whatever , the energy gets u, u dont see it but its something u feel..

    also its opposites...to everything on this planet is an opposite..so dont you think thier would be an opposite to evilness too..charles manson is one of the extremes...so thier has to be an equal opposite...thats the way the world works man, dumb to smart, nite day, its just common damn sense.

  • dude u dont hav to belive n god but dont make an ass of urself n talk about other ppls belief ok ya dammn jerk???

  • for those who dont realize why he made this song, its because dimebag was actually a personal friend with head, and it really devastated him when he died.

  • Regardless of all this religion stuff, I think Head could do with a few guitar lessons. It's not very good is it?

  • what? because he's not shredding? sounds like David Gilmour to me.  He's not refined but that doesnt mean it sucks.

  • No - he doesn't have to shred! But his string bends need work and the solo sounds a little amtuerish for someone of his stature. He's going up and down one scale for the duration and there isn't much feel in it, which is odd considering the subject matter for the song.

  • Dude, were you guitarist for Korn? Then shut up. I think he knows what he's doing.

  • only someone jelaus would be critisizing this performance. In my country theres a saying "nao gostas não comas!" wich means "dont like it dont eat it!" go preach your technicalities somewere else ok? cause when comes down to liking it or not, nobody cares. if you like it, you like it. if you dont like it, shut the hell up and let the ones who do appreciate it. (sorry my bad english) peace!

  • Good grief...

    Look, I'm just a guitarist offering my own view on his playing style. I haven't said anything particularly aggressive and I don't appreciate being told to 'shut up' or that I'm 'jealous' of someone I've never even met.

    I have some early recordings by this guitarist and in his heyday, he was pretty innovative. I just don't think he nailed this piece too well. Thank God I didn't post something offensive!

  • I'm not trying to start a war here x'D i'm sorry if my comment was insulting in any way, that wasn't my intention. In fact i am really tired of hearing people saying bad things about stuff not so technical, to me the objective is to make music not to compete with each other for who's the best!!

    I'm sorry if i was agressive, your comment was the first i saw and i expressed my opinion on it, it was not my intention to offend you.

    Peace!

  • That's Ok - apology excepted (not in a 'Darth Vader' way). I find things can get very dehumanised on these comments boards.

    I own music from all genres. Korn often get knocked for their later catalogue, but I thought the first album was quite groundbreaking - I own the second also. I still listen to 'Twist' quite a lot. (possibly my favourite track). As for the technical thing - it's an issue in some forms of music, but I don't regard it as an essential requirement.

  • is he playing a 7 and 14

  • Yah, that's a 7/14. It's awesome.

  • i see he will be ibanez forever

  • Who cares what he chooses to do in his life?

    Head is and was a great musician, kudos to him.

    He "found god" and gave up drugs, good for him!

    Lets just hope he can still rip shit up with his 7 string!! : )

  • For all of you guys who don't believe in Jesus Christ... Look up the Shroud of Turin. How can you explain that? That's just enough proof to show that God does exist. It might not be proven real or fake yet, but how can you possibly explain how some artist could have drawn that using something (with technology we don't even have these days) to see the picture only in color negative.

  • Just because we don't know how civilization started doesn't mean we have to make up some bullshit for the answer. People go way too far with "god" and like spend all of their time worshipping something that has never made any appearances. I wonder when these idiots are going to realize they're just wasting their time and do something that will make a difference in the world.

  • NOBODY FUCKING KNOWS!!! so all these past generationss people made fucked up stories to tell their kids and thats how god was made up

  • Can we please leave the invisible man in the sky alone and out of music topics? Jeeeeeeeeeeeeesus!

  • Amen to that! God does not exist, if anyone wants to argue, show me some fucking proof that he does. Don't show me a damn bible, oh yeah, and prove that the stuff in the bible is true? God is just a fucking myth, stop basing your life on that bullshit.

  • THANK U SICKSPY!! THANK UUU

    THERES NO SOLID FUCKING PROOF OF GOD!

    theyre all fuckin sayin, GOD CREATED THE UNIVERSE

    well how the fuck do they know???? nothing existed b4

  • LOL, I just started what I was trying to avoid, LOL!!! You fucking guys, LOL!!! Holy Jeebus...

    *whew* you made my side hurt you jerks...

    BTW, I brought you back to 0 instead of -1 for thinking for yourselves. Whatever though...

  • Lol, I don't usually like starting this kind of stuff, especially on youtube but i just felt i had to say it lol

  • stfu jerk. Respect him

    Hes doing his thing, i think its cool.

  • stfu jerk. Respect him

    Hes doing his thing, i think its cool.

  • I wouldn't say "shits" all over. It's totally different playing tech/styles. Though imo, this is what playing the guitar is.

    As far as guitar playing in koRn, it was unique, nothing special. Not taking a single thing away from him or the other 4 members, just saying what I think.

  • Hes doing his thing, i think its cool.

    the only fag here is you.

    hes playing that song perfectly, i love him for what he is doing. hes a great idol for junkies etc.

    Maybe he has been alittle brainwashed but i believe in him. and then hes a very, very good guitar player :)

    and if you guys dont have anything positive to say then please dont say ANYTHING.

  • That's the not even close to what I was saying...

  • Hes doing his thing, i think its cool.

    the only fag here is you.

    hes playing that song perfectly, i love him for what he is doing. hes a great idol for junkies etc.

  • I agree with u to a certain pt...I dont think it shits all over his guitar playing when he was in korn but this song sure is a lot more technical...any who Head is awsome end of story

  • the stuff he and munky did in korn was pretty cool like using simple cross melodies between each other, in most cases simple is always better. but you never saw him and munk shred and alot people thought they couldn't shred even though they could. so its good to seem him rippin up some sick solos

  • by god, get this in your heads all of you guys who dont know this: Allah means God in arabic you ignorant bastard, and this song is awsome imo because its ment in good and it comes from heart, and dont forget this: its a tribute to the Dimebag

  • VUTRDOIN

    Me and you both know, it is a natural human thing to lie, to be a thief, to look with lust, BUT what that meens it his, if your a LIAR, meening you do it more then you should, stop passing gods word in a misinterpreted way

  • rip dimebag we miss u

  • I think why he titled this letter to dimebag is cause they were obviousally friends, I think dimes death was the last straw for brian! which really pulled him away from his old lifestlye, I dont think being in a band is honestly a bad thing at all, but theres a destructive side to it as well!

  • i absolutely love this video! its really deep and meaningful and it really sticks in my head. KoRn rock but this solo is way beyond them in melodicness. rock on. by they way, this reminds me very much of eric clapton.

  • okay everybody, this is very good. BUT.... right after you watch this, check out "maggot brain" by funkadelic. very very similar. awesome, all the same

  • RIP dime i loved it stop complaining

  • i thought 12 string was nuts but 14!

  • R.I.P Dime

  • who knew headbangers could play the blues?

  • i just have to say...this isnt blues..atall.

    this is actually good, blues has the same repeating chord changes since its birth in 1930 using 12 bar structures. so how this is blues is beyon me..

  • Nice, Brian has way to much musical talent to not express it like he is now, he needs to unleash that and you korn fans (Iam one too) that brian will always even if its in small ways represent korn and there musical talent as he co wrote 6 albums with them, they guy needed to spread his wings, remember "all birds aren't meant to be caged!!!"

  • Why can't you leave the man alone? He found peace in his life... what's that tell you? Money and material possessions don't amount to much. He was smart and brave enough to bow out and search for something higher... He isn't the idiot.

  • so does this mean dime is in hell? i mean after all he did die in sin. honestly if dime is not in hell then the bible is totally wrong and contradicts everything so maybe hes playing in salute for that fact that he wont ever see heaven lol

  • Peace be with you!

  • haha. how about you get 'da' fuck over it bitch.

  • shut da fuck up loser...

  • DUDE SUCK IT. Its not his fault "Brian" is a homo. That "SOLO" if you want to call it that sucks and so do you for defending a peice of crap like head. You should go listen to the cool kid music like Korn and Limp Buscuit and stay off the internet. In fact stay far away form the PC.

    SLAYER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • SUCK IT!!!!

  • let our lonely and hopeless soul find the answer..

  • are you serious?!-.-

  • awesome..Jesus Rock man....totally..

  • Praise God!!!!!!!! Maybe he will be the example many lost souls need!

  • dude he did so many bad things, have you read the book? didnt think so he was addicted and an addict to many many things I don't know where else he could have gone wrong but now he has turned his life around, have you hung out with him lately?

  • Amen to THAT motherfuckers!

    And stop minusing whoever says Brian is an idiot, cause he is! In fact his worse. He's such a stupid thing there's no word for it!

    And all you naive "jesus lovers" who defend him can go bite yourselves.

    Pfft! Found god... Please..!

  • Snowbabe 92 u really2 need go to church and be baptized hahahhah how old r u? we'll see until ur 60 or near death experience then u gonna scream God God help me not satan satan help me or the law of attraction help me or plaedians/billy meyers help me, ufo help me, ULL GONNA SCREAM GOD HELP ME!

  • Hah!

    I'm 15. And I doubt that i need to be baptized. And cute. With the Ufo things. But. I'm not dissing your religion or whatever, I just think it's unnecessary of him to drop out of a band where all the members are christians too and they've quit drugs. The man's all brainwashed!

  • its not a religion dear, its a Believe. same like u believe in KORN, but this time Brian believe in Jesus that save him. who u rather believe, a band that doesnt care to u when u got sick(when u listen to their song and u said u feel better its just ur wishful thinkin) OR a God named Jesus that really2 care to you but you run away from Him? thats ur choice :) but Hes there waiting dont worry. GBU

  • Fine. A believe, call it whatever you feel like calling it!=)

    How can you say Jesus cares more than the band members? Seriously, you talk about him like he's your neighbour or best-friend or shit. Are you even aware of what you're saying!? And if he's waiting I'm sure if hes a logic man he'll understand that it's not healthy to have blind faith in any one.^^ Now tell me I'm wrong. -.-

  • How does a tribute to Dimebag contribute to religion ? It's Brians' beliefs. He could care less what any of you on a message board think about what he did. When you have everything, you realise you have nothing you want. He had everything, except a religion.

  • Sure. But.

    We can discuss the issue in general.

    And. Isn't it possible to keep his "everything" AND have a religion?

  • If you want to discuss the issue in general, find a religion message-board. You guys are judging him now, based upon his beliefs. He is everything he was, only he has a religion. Why should that change who he is ? I'm agnostic, but still - I don't trust friends. He has blind faith in a God, you have blind faith in Friendship. Whatever faith you have...it is, and will always be - blind.
