One-Man-Band Hotel California

[boleynali]

i was waiting for the big guitar solo from his little plastic axe but the thing probably would have blown up.so alas we got a mouth organ instead.

[TheGuitarshooter]

@OneManBandCareer yeah i thought so steinberger makes the Synapse which is one of my favorite guitars but i think you did a great job

[OneManBandCareer]

Thanks all for watching and subscribing over on my channel. And thanks to the guy who put this video of me up on YouTube. It's been great getting so much feedback. I have my own channel now but new postings will be slow yet. No promises, but I do have some new ideas that may see the light of day eventually. And thanks pbsurfdude for helping me get some subscribers. I have been offered the partnership program from YouTube. Hope to get more videos up eventually. Cheers. Danie (onemanbandcareer)

[alprima]

Excelente, sin palabras, felicitaciones, ¿donde puedo encontrar mas videos de este señor? Como se llama?

[131T3M3]

This is beautiful.

[Chupecapras]

@Conaan70 I never said that he was homeless no need to insult me

[Conaan70]

@Chupecapras ow, my feelings.

Faggot.

[Chupecapras]

@scotth602 if by helping him you mean giving him MORE money for alcohol, it would be MUCH better to give your money to a charity which you know won't spend money on more booze and that will actually help.

[Conaan70]

@Chupecapras You're an idiot. Obviously he isn't homeless.

[131T3M3]

@Conaan70 read the comment he responded to...

[Jwelthag]

@Conaan70 You know what the hardest part of calling yourself 'Conaan70' on youtube is riiight?...

Telling your parents you're gay......

[manuelleonguitarra]

oleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!

[VidZFoRLifE1]

@mandore don't bring religion in the comment area. It's real annoying.

[dougparadis]

nothin like chinese/american singing lol

[ablahblah54]

I want to see someone do this with a keyboard though...hands on piano, two feet operating a bass drum and the other hitting a snare.

[OneManBandCareer]

@ablahblah54 Hi! I'm Daniel in this video. I have been playing keyboard and drums just as you suggested. Guitar is easier to carry around and set up, but keyboard (with drums) is more fun for me. I'm trying to build a better rig using a keyboard that will be easier to transport. Cheers, and check out my channel (including several videos where I play keyboard with drums).

[Andreeabl5]

impresionant !!!

[htmlboy3]

The guy at 1:31 briefly enjoyed it

[niabella18]

@htmlboy3 AHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[SimonBlanjean]

@htmlboy3 : The One-Man-Car.

[scotth602]

I don't mind giving street performers money, but if he's not homeless, then I'd rather give my hard earned money to a homeless man who suffers from alcoholism, so he can get the help that he needs.

[darkstar242]

@scotth602 I'm sorry... but if you give money to an alchoholic, you know they will simply spend it on more alchohol. If you want to help the homeless, buy them a cheeseburger or something. At least that way you know you are helping them instead of furthering their problems.

[ChicagoNeilcon]

@darkstar242 You're 100% correct. I always have a $5 McDonalds gift card on my dashboard.  If you give these to the homeless, you know that won't waste it on Booze or Drugs.

[mandore100]

We are ONE human family from ADAM. Our real enemies are the SATAN and his follower / worshiper amongst us human instilling FEAR / JEALOUSLY instead of LOVE / SHARE. Defeat them by respecting / honour our differences and celebrate / cherish our similarities. Stay UNITED of HUMAN FAMILY............

[Connexxable]

awesome!

[Chronichunter]

this is awesome

[TheGuitarshooter]

is that guitar a synapse?

[OneManBandCareer]

@TheGuitarshooter Hi. I'm Daniel (in the video above). The guitar is a Steinberger (actually a Steinberger copy made my a cheaper brand called Spirit). I also used to use a black one on a different one-man-band rig (it's in a video on my channel).

[selearemus]

no1 seems to care lol.

[TheMadicomeaux]

teach me how to speak japanese:0

[OneManBandCareer]

@ChuckNorrisKratosLOL Hi, I'm Daniel in the video. It's really not so hard to do three or four things at once. It just take practice just like the singing part, or the playing the guitar. The brain is pretty amazing once it gets used to something. But the adrenaline rush of performing in front of people is what really helped me learn to do the one-man-band. I think the brain can really make leaps in ability when under the influence of adrenaline.

[MrElmoDouglas]

im going to be a dad soon and this guy makes me think of myself i quit smoking and in high scool all my friends would say your weird but i stil lwas popular and im going to college and he makes me think of myself because i play bass guitar and drums and yes i have a girlfriend im engaged and i have a decent job

[MrElmoDouglas]

Hey guys, I only wish the best for daniel out here in california the state fair where talented people would play stuff like this would probobly get alot of negative comments and say stuff like ohh he dosent have a home and he looks weird and probobly dosent have children or is still a virgin... but i have to say i dont juge people like that he seems very talented and if you lived in California i would be your part time body gaurd for free i mean you seem nice.I am 20 and im going to be a dad.

[OneManBandCareer]

@MrElmoDouglas Thanks for the comments here and at my channel. People make the odd mistake of assuming that just because a person gets caught on tape for a few minutes performing in a park, that that's all the person ever does for a living. This video was just one cold day in November of my otherwise very busy life. I have performed both as a one-man-band and just a regular singer/guitarist, and I have performed with numerous one-man-band rigs (set-ups). And mostly on stage, not on the street.

[tyrulz2]

seriously what lifeless losers would dislike this video. He's clearly awesome!

[thecallofktulu89]

How did his ass play the cymbal? Anyways he's so wonderful

[shadowbillyphone]

@thecallofktulu89 He played the cymbal with his right arm. You can see the strap that is strapped to his right arm just above his elbow. You can also see him pulling it.

[M41102]

Y so many Asians

[readiteatit]

@M41102 He's playing in Tokyo

[t1000kostolomac]

this guy is a genious

[pbsurfdude]

He now has a Youtube channel. We all need to subscribe and support him. Search onemanbandcareer.

[OneManBandCareer]

@pbsurfdude Thanks for the support. I no longer perform as a one-man-band (due to unrelated health issues), but I did post videos of some of the crazy rigs that I've built and performed on.

[OneManBandCareer]

@pbsurfdude Thanks again for the support. Because of your comment I've gotten a lot of subscribers. And furthermore I'm thinking of building a new one-man-band rig and start performing some more. Unfortunately, I have some medical issues that get in the way, but maybe I'll be performing again eventually. Thanks to you, I at least want to try. Cheers, Daniel (onemanbandcareer)

[palskdjfhg12345]

his guitar is flat!!! he's awesome, not going to lie, but the band geek in my head is dying :P

[OneManBandCareer]

@palskdjfhg12345 Yes, it was so hard keeping that damn Steinberger in tune. The reason was, I was using a capo on the fifth fret and the strings were too thin (light gauge). The pressure of the capo made the strings go out of tune easily. Some months later I began to use a thicker gauge string and overcame the problem. Cheers, Daniel (the guy in the video)

[palskdjfhg12345]

oh that's alright, your awesomeness made up for it :P

[prankstare]

great idea of drums...nice i'm curious is there one out there for sale?

[eastdude123]

The old man on the scooter is like "this is my SHIT!" Then he leaves

[TheProbowler1]

i guess my foot tapping isnt useless

[viziertim]

From the song description "He played in Ueno park (Tokyo). Is Tokyo now in California? I had this impression that Tokyo was the capital of Japan. When did the US (specifically, California) acquire this city?

[quamtaka]

@viziertim The song hes singing is called Hotel California, hes playing in Tokyo, which is strangely enough in Japan... go figure

[Comrico]

should i eat the cuttle fish or vanilla pasto

[wowaenur]

sounds better than the original to be honest!

[acropolis2000silviu]

[basjeman11]

i'd give him all my money if i saw him preform

[imdashit5]

Steinbergers sound pretty good.

[Derangeddemon]

Fuck.

[168Kamikaze]

Very beautiful song for having a sinister and even demonic hellish hidden meaning:) real fans know what I mean... Anyways there are Bo robots playing the drums. If you get a good look at his arms and legs there are black straps which when pulled coordinate a movement on the drum set. But one last thing... If I sparked some intrigue in the demonic message in this song and someone is going to look it up now you should also look up the hidden meanings in some of your favorite children's songs like

[George80831]

sagol magariaaaaaaaaaaaaa



[fspps2]

There are probably hidden programmed robots behind him who play drums, overall amazing!

[HiddenSamurai1292]

not all street band are poor. some of them doing it just for fun and get some extra money.

[OneManBandCareer]

@HiddenSamurai1292 Hi, I'm Daniel from in the video. I did it to make a little cash while trying out new ideas and for rehearsal. That's true, not all street performers are poor. All the one's I know in Japan make a very decent living.

[ChillenMcGrillen93]

Too bad neither him or the guitar is in tune!

[saltburnsurfer]

1:38 that guy on the right dig's it for all of 4 seconds hehe

[themusicgamer14]

[shneebies]

holy freaking crap thats so cool

[lolisbol]

He´s amazing...

[phodem12pm]

the electronic thing doesn't do much, all the beats are from his feet.

[xXUndeadShadow166Xx]

its not fair hes using electrionnic thing 2 use drums hes cheater lol

[metalfoxkid12345]

@xXUndeadShadow166Xx before u call him a cheater, i have a small qns.. can u do what he did? or do u even have a better suggestion?

[OneManBandCareer]

@xXUndeadShadow166Xx Thanks for comment, but there is no electronics going on (except for mic and guitar pickup). My feet have cables that go to the drums mounted on back. The cables are thin strong wire cables that are hard to see due to the angle of the video and the poor resolution of the video. The splash cymbal is made to sound by a cable that connects to a black band around my right upper arm. Originally this equipment was mounted on my back like a hiking backpack, and performed standing.

[freenexton]

@OneManBandCareer You should film a life story of yourself, as you seem like a very interesting individual.

[72enjoi]

[OneManBandCareer]

Hey! Nice to hear from you. I just put up some new video of other one-man-band performances. From Daniel Clay Idol.

[SuperHotdogguy]

How come i saw like 20 people in wheelchairs

[way2stupid]

love this vid, though outta interest, hows he playing bass and guitar at same time ?

[Blackbeltjawa]

@way2stupid Since he's fingerpicking, he can hit the bass notes with his thumb and the rest with his other fingers.

[OneManBandCareer]

You are way 2 stupid! Naw, just kidding. I play the bass sounds with my thumb on the lower strings while finger picking the upper strings for the chords. I boosted the Low EQ on the PA to give it more bass. From Daniel Clay Idol (the guy in this video).

[way2stupid]

@OneManBandCareer nice one lol! as u can tell im a guitar technique noob... thanks for reply n good job!
