[broomeydbr9]

What the hell? Don Ross speaks speaks French? I had no idea. For some reason I just assumed he was American lol not Canadian. Don't know why

[yayapsg92]

think a little, in quebec the official language is french

[mittensandfobeo]

oh and he's canadian too. we don't give canadians enough credit. they're pretty sweet

[awfulguitarplucker]

i alwasy thought he was english motherlanguage...he has a great french indeed!

double the genious, and i was also expecting that..but wow! dear Don, you surclassed teh God category now!

[momheinan]

What a transformation this man has made in his career....just check out the many wonderful videos he has let us enjoy here. I could listen to him play all day and all night! :>)

[seaweevil]

'kay so this is what happens right?? he just tuned his new strings purely with his ear and then all of a sudden he played something that is out of this world!??! damn the man's a genius

[pat44444444444444444]

I could just sit here for ages and watch him string and tune that guitar!

[pbhushanbsb]

DID someone whisper out of an orgasm at 6:16 ..I'M WONDERING WHAT THAT IS ..its in the original video also ..

[K1LL14N]

yeah he speaks german but his german isn't too good though, what I heard of it at least. but people can undestand it and that's all that counts ! :D

[paben101]

don is the shit!!!

[Dgc2003]

I love watching this song evolve over the years. Watching the older recordings and moving up to this one you can really see all the changes he did. I was lucky enough to see Don live on my birthday and i go to request this song =)

[mark1800]

that's some fast string changing! gotta use the lap method!

[jkshoujk]

Absolutely beautiful performance, and a beautiful guitar. From the video you can tell it's unplugged and it still resonates so well.

Also love the re-innovation on the harmonic part at 4:27

[sonicgauge1]

yah he's a trip, I learn somthin new about em all the time...

[MrLoganMohr]

what tuning is he playing in??

[promothus]

@MrLoganMohr C G Eb F G Bb

Just make sure you use a medium or heavy gauge to get the most out of the low tuned strings.

[fossegrim91]

wtf?! he speaks french?!

[JoeLaFigue]

yes, but with a canadian french accent actually, and it seems that he can speak german too, he asks in the beginning "if it is in french that we use the words major and minor to speak about a note, or if it is in german", this man's incredible x)

[boggsty]

@JoeLaFigue indeed german ^^ /watch?v=Jq8s1rHVNgg

[Lihaschu]

@JoeLaFigue look up his page. he's german. hence the accent ;)

[JoeLaFigue]

@Lihaschu Hum, I read everywhere that he was Canadian, he's very interested in foreign languages though, maybe you mistook because he's toured in germany lately. Or perhaps am I wrong, you're making me doubt xD but I was pretty sure he was Canadian so far !

[foxtrotalex]

@Lihaschu Don Ross is most definitely Canadian. He was born in Montreal and currently lives in Halifax.

[crunkykong]

I know! WTF.

[Tuloisboss]

@fossegrim91

Of course... French Canadian :-)

[Exlocos]

@fossegrim91 he can speak German, Spanish and Italian, too!

[supr3z]

@fossegrim91 Not only that, he sings too. Just saw that in another video. He keeps on amazing me :P

[JoeLaFigue]

Mon dieu, Don parle français ? cet homme m'etonne de jour en jour

[GetnFunky]

[kivodul73]
