[DaltreyCoverdale]

Your voice looks Layne's voice!

[stealurface1976]

@DaltreyCoverdale hey thanks

[postalsalles]

[stealurface1976]

@postalsalles its in there..somewhere

[bushpilot223]

1:49 singers face made me lol

[hellshandfull]

I love the singer's facial expressions lol

[XxTRIPPINGxxGUITARxX]

great job

[stealurface1976]

@XxTRIPPINGxxGUITARxX hey thanks!

[Kasamoto91]

I still come back to this video and infact most others from your page man, Such an amazing group of artists performing suck an EPIC song.

[stealurface1976]

@Kasamoto91 hey thanks very much!..though i think alot of ppl would disagree haha..but thats ok..i still have fun

[Carloch30]

Very great! It's a very difficult song to sing and you make it well.

[stealurface1976]

@Carloch30 thanks very much!

[wanuirmanson1986]

awesome....perfect...demais!!!­!

[stealurface1976]

@wanuirmanson1986 hey thanks!

[ulissespacoka]

awesome

[stealurface1976]

@ulissespacoka thanks very much!

[KoRnKid2011]

when i first cut this video on, i saw two shirtless dudes and i was this is gonna be a good cover,shits about to go down. and i was right, good cover, you put your own flare to it. if you do a cover perfect, why would you listen to a cover, it would be like listening to the song

[stealurface1976]

@KoRnKid2011 thanks very much..thats the way i look at it too..ppl are always telling me i didnt do this right or that right...if ppl want it exact..just listen to the cd..lol..i like to do covers in my own way...glad someone can appreciate that

[TubeTroll72]

Although the singer is pretty good, he should wear some sun shades. Dude, your bugged out eyes are somewhat disturbing. Good vocal though.

[stealurface1976]

@TubeTroll72 lol thanks.i'll try that

[RydynShotgun]

You guys should put on a shirt.. And then maybe learn how to play music.. Bluntly put.. you fuckers suck ass!!!

[RydynShotgun]

@RydynShotgun Besides the fact that you guys look like a bunch of fucking queers.... hahahahha you should just sell your equipment and quit!!

[stealurface1976]

@RydynShotgun show me how its done then, oh yea i forgot, you have no videos...no subscribers..no views...no talent...and the list goes on...merry christmas hater

[jigggz1]

your video fuckin sux dude.. such a lack of a LEGEND...

[stealurface1976]

@jigggz1 thanks...sucked so bad you took the time to comment..

[jeffel80]

Great job don't listen to these asshats, they just had a double dose of haterade this morning

[stealurface1976]

@jeffel80 lol thanks..i appreciate that

[tardmongoose]

your a douche bag. DO some Heroin it would probably help you if anything ahahaha

[stealurface1976]

@tardmongoose yea i heard it before...douchebag, heroine...check...nothing new

[rileyaw03]

nice job man, but try closing your mouth a little. It will muffle the sound while still keeping vocals strong. I realize that Layne Staley is irreplacable, but if you look and the way he sings you may pick up some tips. check out there unplugged performance and jools holland "would?"

[stealurface1976]

@rileyaw03 hey thanks..though honestly..i think its the heroine that made him sing that way on unplugged..i'm not actually trying to replicate him..more trying to sing a song i like, in my own way

[psycho826]

@stealurface1976 well then do some heroine

[stealurface1976]

@psycho826 mm yea no thank you

[psycho826]

@stealurface1976 you sure, could do some good

[Triad7858]

Leautinant Dan in this motherfucker! Good job man

[stealurface1976]

@Triad7858 haha hey thanks

[bran1186]

LOSE THE DRUMMER...or make that mofo practice...he'll get it....good job i enjoyed it

[stealurface1976]

@bran1186 its actually my fault he has to play a different beat then the original, since i couldnt play along and sing at the regular pace, though thanks for the comment

[aqstermole]

starting of the video i think your wooooo is too loud. I think it has to be a little subtle...don't you think. Rest is good.

[stealurface1976]

@aqstermole yes i suppose so..thanks for the comment

[TaylerMeeks]

I want to say garbage..... so i will. GARBAGE

[stealurface1976]

@TaylerMeeks lmfao, i seen your cover of man in a box..and you have the gall to leave a comment like that on my video, this video sucks far less then your lame ass bar band attempt , and furthermore, sucks far less then your haircut, idiot

[TaylerMeeks]

@stealurface1976 hahah thats funny. Bar band. Your playing in your fucking garage with your wash out friends. I'm 14 and playin in big bars where everyone loves me. You dont have shit one me. Go back to your cashier at mcdonalds or somethin dipshit

[stealurface1976]

@TaylerMeeks lmao, i'm sorry i must have you confused with some other terrible rendition of man in a box..cuz i couldve swore what i heard was total bullshit...and you are the dipshit who leaves hater comments on my videos...jealous much ??

[TaylerMeeks]

@stealurface1976 I'd bet if you asked everyone whos video is better, they would say mine. Eat it bitch.

[stealurface1976]

@TaylerMeeks <--------2 subscribers....stealurface1976 <--------5,148 subscribers....though of course...you might be right

[matthewlane42]

tempo is wayyyyyy too fast , and where is the backing harmonies ?

[stealurface1976]

@matthewlane42 1. were just jamming..2. we dont care about getting it perfect. 3. if you want perfection..listen to the original cd

[matthewlane42]

@stealurface1976 yeah but it should sound similar to the record for the most part especially timing wise and harmonies are important also

[stealurface1976]

@matthewlane42 and who said it should?..its music...its an artform which is up to interpretation..if i wanted to make this a country disco death metal song...i could...

[cheaprum]

really good, but ,...try next time to put a bBACKING VOCAL it wil improve the quality a lot!!!,...but that´s it WAS REALLY COOL

[stealurface1976]

@cheaprum hey thanks!..i actually did put a backing vocal in the other vid i did when i was alone

[stevemv69]

Tell the fat guy to put a shirt on

[mraia007]

i dont see what the problem is, it sounds real good to me for an unplugged version. i don't hear any effects in the voice, and the acoustic guitar is the more dominate sound, so it's unplugged sound! Put this band with a good PA and good sound tech, all the good effects, im sure it would sound different!, I give ya'll a thumbs up! rock on!

[stealurface1976]

@mraia007 thanks very much!...it was a real task getting a decent sound in that barn...we were getting alot of squeeling and other noises..

[ianmiscool6969]

In my opinion it truly wasnt that bad. its a cover. you cant get your voice to sound exactly like layne staleys

[stealurface1976]

@ianmiscool6969 thanks alot!.exactly...very difficult voice to match

[ianmiscool6969]

@stealurface1976 And I just noticed you guys are playing in a horse stable. if you guys were in an actual studio it would be very good. Keep it up.

[temseti]

Sorry, but the tone of your voice doesn't suit that song much. Intonation was off and lacked rage and passion. Yeah, get bacon butt to turn around when you record! You're posing way too much too ffs

[stealurface1976]

@temseti although i appreciate your opinion, you come off sounding like total prick...and i'd be willing bet you havent got a single video to show for yourself...and for the record....i have all the rage and passion...in music and in life...i am what i am

[temseti]

@stealurface1976

Not everyone wants or needs to be a youtube star, not everyone needs to have their ego filled by comments. Why don't you do another vid with a bit more rage and passion, I wish you all the best luck with it.

[stealurface1976]

@temseti who said i wanted to be a youtube star??...actually..i made my account originally to keep track of the songs i've written and the songs i've learned..i've never advertised or sent my videos out to my subscribers...so the fact that 5000+ ppl have heard something in my originals or covers that they like was just an added bonus..i play for my own enjoyment, not for others to fill my ego

[lnwlltt1]

You guys are awesome, good job! You should be a tribute band for them! A little too shrill for beginning though.

[stealurface1976]

@lnwlltt1 hey thanks!..i dont have the range for alot of their tunes...otherwise i would be in a coverband

[lisaleeharpwaugh]

POWERFULLY ACCURATE. BUT THE TALENT HERE IS PHENOMENALLY MORE INTENSE THEN THE ORIGINAL.

[stealurface1976]

@lisaleeharpwaugh wow thank you very much!..glad you like

[temseti]

@lisaleeharpwaugh

What? more intense than the old Alice in Chains? are you dumb or just plain stupid? i'm not saying they're bad, but lets be realistic...

[loafbo]

nice one dude....i see your using a marshall stack....what is it exactly ?

[stealurface1976]

@loafbo thanks alot!...not sure about the stack ., its my friends

[dwwhitesk8rdieman]

you guys are great! keep it up

[stealurface1976]

@dwwhitesk8rdieman hey thanks very much

[ElyssaLovelyss]

i...love you. this is amazing.

[stealurface1976]

@ElyssaLovelyss thank you very much..also thanks for subscribing..off to check out your channel

[stealurface1976]

@qwerty93k yea it does sorta doesnt it

[cale583]

Wow you guys really suck, what a bunch of posers

[samudia666]

listen up inbreed...got your email but you had nothing to say... i'm surprised you boys out in the sticks know how to use the internet...Don't care to waist the time to plug in a video, don't care to be a Youtube Rockstar like you guys...if you're gonna post video's, then why don't you post something worth posting. I caught your act at the local bar..The place was empty...i'm not surprised...oh by the way, you still suck.. laters

[Andy379Pete]

Another awsome cover!! I would love to see you guys to a cover of Gimmie Back My Bullets -Skynyrd

[stealurface1976]

@Andy379Pete hey thanks very much!

[Andy379Pete]

[samudia666]

tell your guitarist to turn his fat ass around. I'm tired of seeing the bacon on his back!!

[stealurface1976]

@samudia666 you must be in love with us...i will go have a look at your videos...but 9 out of 10 haters have no videos..how can you go around hating ppl when you have nothing to show for yourself?

[samudia666]

quite trying to be a pretty boy....

[stealurface1976]

@samudia666 lmao..u suck

[samudia666]

you suck

[towerman3434]

[stealurface1976]

@Kandie182007 hey thanks!..good tune it is

[gabeo85]

Played a little up tempo from the original, but if thats what your going for… You did a hell of a job. Good voice control. Keep it up fellas!

[stealurface1976]

@gabeo85 hey thanks very much!

[studdpuppy85]

great cover!

[stealurface1976]

@studdpuppy85 thanks alot!

[bondman70]

Love the beer can on the amp....classy. haha.

[stealurface1976]

@bondman70 hehe

[nespo1919]

when you say "he aint gonna die".. I really believe you. Good fucking work

[stealurface1976]

@nespo1919 hey thanks very much!..glad you dig my rendition

[aldana360]

too soft

[stealurface1976]

@aldana360 too soft for what exactly?..music is subjective

[MagCynic]

Is the bass even plugged in? In fact the mix seems to not be very balanced at all. Perhaps it's just the nature of a YouTube video.

Decent overall, though.

[stealurface1976]

@MagCynic hey thanks..well..to call it a "mix" would be pushing it really..this was just a recording from a flipcam..this practice space did not provide us with the best sound environment either...metal roof..old fridge..shitty acoustics...i found that when the guitar was a bit louder it muffled the rest of the audio..live n learn

[inkfool1]

sound more like maroon 5 than AIC

[stealurface1976]

@inkfool1 lol..oh u think i want to sound like AIC?..i just play it how i play it



[inkfool1]

@stealurface1976 so thats how your voice sounds in every song? nevermind then

[DriftKing0180]

place like in the video of "man in the box" :D

[stealurface1976]

@DriftKing0180 yea yer right , i never even thought of that

[DriftKing0180]

@stealurface1976 man you good, try more scream :)

[stealurface1976]

@DriftKing0180 hey thanks..dunno bout screamin though...not really my style

[DrkMths]

is that bradley nowell in the back on guitar? lol



[dioni1979]

best rooster cover on youtube, great voice cant stop listening

[stealurface1976]

@dioni1979 thanks so much!!

[dyllanblake]

Singer = awesome! The guitarist in the back needs to face the audience and play guitar, not drink beer j/k. Sounds great!

[stealurface1976]

@dyllanblake haha well hey thanks

[RitexxAid]

Damn man, I'm a huge AIC fan.. And I have to say- YOU RIPPED IT! Man, I've been trying to play guitar and sing together, I can't do it... I don't know what to do in regards to vocals.. Any suggestions? Oh, do you by chance have chords for this?

[stealurface1976]

@RitexxAid hey thanks very much...!..its been a struggle of mine for years as well..i dont really have any real advice but if you keep trying you will eventually get the 2 together no prob...sorta winged this one as far as chords go..sorry i couldnt be more help

[Arcane5150]

@RitexxAid

I have found it easier myself to close me eyes while playing when learning the vocals for songs. It helps disconnect your strumming pattern with the lyrical side of it, plus it helps in learning chord position and fret spacing. I'll often find myself closing my eyes when playing now.

[hillelslovakrip]

sinngers to good for the rest of the band... 

[stealurface1976]

@hillelslovakrip well hey thanks!

[gblespaul]

I dont get why I can hear an acoustic guitar over a 4x12 cab?, singer needs to pack his bags and go to La, alot of bands are looking for talented singers, say goodbye to the barn.

[stealurface1976]

@gblespaul hey thanks...well the problem with the sound was that i was using a flip cam to record the audio with...so every time he turned up...it muffled the rest of the audio...this was the best of our takes due to that fact

[lickmyfuckinasshole]

whats up with the lead guitarist? dude u gotta get into bro ..face the crowd and rock out , don't turn your back on them..GETTER DONE!

[stealurface1976]

@lickmyfuckinasshole haha i dunno...i think he was a bit camera shy

[ailievdesign]

Wow, amazing vocals! GJ, dude.

[stealurface1976]

@ailievdesign thank you very much!

[xerxes0217]

wow im impressed....someone who didnt actually butcher the vocal part on a Layne Staley song!!! bravo dude u rock

[stealurface1976]

@xerxes0217 hey thanks very much!!..i hear ya..been alot of failed attempts for sure

[Sweeper5]

Looks like you guys are having absolutely too much fun. Good job. Wonderful fun to jam in a little hot grungy cabin like that. Prolly burn a couple stogies out back between songs. Fun times to be sure. Those are times you guys will remember and cherish forever. Thanks for sharing it. And good vox by the way. Much enjoyed the whole thing.

[stealurface1976]

@Sweeper5 hey thanks alot...yea it was a challenge some days out in the barn..mosquitos and metal roofs messing with the equipment..but yea..fun times indeed..havent played all together in quite some time now..still jam with the drummer though

[LmTzz]

Where is the freakin' bass, especially from 1:01 to 1:12?! It is a nice cover though, don't get me wrong.

[stealurface1976]

@LmTzz haha i dont know...but thanks

[thiagomontico]

Cara!!! mto bom msm hein!!!
