[eogren]

I've seen Rage too and they were great!

[eogren]

Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band put on a live performance that I thought was incredible when I saw them in Nashville.

[RabidEasterBunny]

Tom Morello is an alien.

[MrTormey]

You gotta admit, it takes a ball sack to stand next Morello w/ a guitar and act like you've done something.

Mad props to Bruce.

Bruce looked like he was in physical pain trying to keep up here. This is nothing short of an amazing performance by both Bruce and Tom.

[creolesurfer123]

Slash is shit compared to morello. Just my .02

[sumblinkfan]

this performance gives me goosebumps

[asli9boy]

I still don't understand how people can say that Slash beats Morello.

[nosdog136]

@asli9boy guess people play too much guitar hero.

[creolesurfer123]

Your an idiot dude his solos are great. You don't know shit

[Phoenix21293]

uhm c'mon, morello's solos are quite stereotyped, nothing notable after all

[zolarnl]

Perfect solo's for both of 'em! Super intense soloing by the Boss, followed by the balzy timings of Morello's RatM sound. Brilliant performance!

[kinglight2295]

06:26 The magic begins

[MKninjas]

player 2 wins

[TheAcdc2012]

[Hipporabbit86]

Was just debating which cover was better... I like the combination the best. :)

[evilpaule]

Amazin'

[OzzyAwzm]

Yes, Toms solo is amazing, but you guys are forgetting what awesome performance this is from Bruce.. Never seen Bruce do anything this good live

[FilthyStinkinRich]

Morello is off the hook! WOW!

Couple of good shots of Little Steven too!

Go to undergroundgarage dowaditty com for more!

[andymanportillo]

That was awesome

[fuaelo]

If ever somebody is able to invent the time machine...the first place i would go is to this concert...to see it live.....

[Steve20125]

Tom Morello's World Wide Rebel Songs yanks a half-hitch outta the ass of rock and roll too,...damn, he and Bruce do express the angst this nation is going through now, pretty grim out there, music to unite by in order hit this thing headon.

[rhaf87]

TOM MORELLO RULES !!

[giancacondove]

Grandissima esecuzione di due bravissimi artisti, attenti ai temi sociali e alla condanna di una società capitalistica senza regole. Anche in Italia sta diventando d'attualità "No home no job no peace no rest " Senza casa né lavoro né pace né riposo..........

[guimolnar]

Man, Tom Morello is great. Each solo is unique. You never know what to expect from him, but always know that will be great!

[mdayoch]

amazing solo by tom at the last portion...

[ma554]

[Sockengangster]

[StevenB771]

Why does he leave all those wild hairs floppin around on the posts? that would drive me nuts.

[lalochanel1]

And the highway is alive tonight

Nobody's foolin' nobody is to where it goes

[MasterVideosX]

tom morello humilho!

[RockySeven7]

Silvio Dante!!!!!

[grahamg1018]

does anyone know how springsteen gets that awesome sound when he did his solo? the tone that he gets is fuckin amazing.

[PIMPZproduction]

@grahamg1018 he was using pinch harmonics, u can search it and you can find out how do it

[secutorclaudius]

all this time i thought it was ghost of tom jones. and i was like, he's not dead, i saw him on top gear! so who's joad?

[xCulturedLeftFootx]

@secutorclaudius If this comment is a piss-take, it's fucking genius. If it's a genuine question, the world is over.  Either way, thanks. I'm laughing my cock off.

[secutorclaudius]

@xCulturedLeftFootx mmm... whichever one doesn't make me sound like a fool.

[NotYourMonkey19]

This song deserves to be better known.

[bigd33905]

Kick ass jam. Tom Morello you give me goose bumps watchin & listening to you play

[asdasas2305]

cant wait to buy his new cd! but, over all things, cant wait to see him live for the first time in my life. bringing my whole fam to the show. the opening night of the 2012 tour. fuck yes!

[asrod]

Tom Morello is the Boss

[iamtheburninator]

The absolute perfect synthesis of new and old.

[PSNalexander1001]

bruce sprongsteen akes a happy face:P

[chihawks2010]

I didnt know that Cal Ripken could play guitar like this!!!

[jtheelen]

If Tom were as good a singer and songwriter as he is a guitar player, then what do you get? The reincarnation of Jimi Hendrix himself. Unfortunately, he is not.

[3g2i]

Awesome!

Have to say that morello's voice is not that good, he's slightly off in tone/timing most of the time on that one.imho

[cesarmadaflower]

this video make my face look like this :D

[chihawks2010]

This was the best live song in a long time.

Morello WOW

[Holler973]

Hey Bruce....... Who's the boss now?

[alubali]

Tom Morello- space rock :)))))))))) <3

[Spindator]

Hmm.. I still wonder why Tom Morello is voted #26 on the Rolling Stone top 100 of best guitarists and Cobain got voted #13.. these guitarlicks would make Cobain roll around in his grave like a friggin kebab..

[Noconjunctions]

@Spindator Cobain was not a virtuoso, but his riffs tore you to pieces. So in terms of greatness i would still go for Cobain, but in terms of technique Morello is probably #5.

[OisinIE]

@Spindator Cobain was by no means a virtuoso on the guitar, but he was still the most influential musician in the development of grunge and made some really groundbreking music. Depending on how rolling Stone compiled the list, that might justify his ranking to some extent.

[SoftSailz]

@Spindator Cobain wasnt even that great of a guitarist.

[philliesarecool]

@Spindator Cobain got voted 13 because of his ability to write music and what he did to music. He used a lot of different tuning styles while writing. I agree with you on the fact that Tom Morello is better at actually playing the guitar, Cobain was better at writing music.

[flevobirdy]

thank you for the text :)

[9799troy]

Well, the whole Tom Morello solo would be good too, thanks.

[9799troy]

Can anyone give me the the tabs to just the over and under harmonic part?

[6jutub]

tom is fucking this guitar soo hard, and its soo good!

[6jutub]

save some time 3:20 - 4:45 and 6:25 - 8:40

[9799troy]

I NEED TABS.

[lowvoice2012]

.... was that jesus?

[velomonkey2]

2 great musicians with an incredible build up and the crescendo is cathartic. This is a must see!!!!!

[DarrenDoo]

Why isn't Max grabbing a beer with Conan?

[karenshhmaren]

6:45 my favorite part!

[goyitoolguin]

People will get offended if I talk shit about morello so I'll just say he needs to work on his singing

[kickurass9807]

fucking amazing! period

[liedsmen217]

Every morning here in Brazil, when I'm on the bus going to school and listening to this song every day I start to shiver with the voice of Bruce Springsteen and Tom Morello incredible solos.

Apply now on my channel anyone.

Thanks!

The Brazilians love their music!

[nmarcelino71]

Tom Morello is a fucKING MACHINE!

[dahephaestus]

[Saantyv]

[Gekzter69]

[horrordoner]

Thank you!!! Real musicians speak for the people, not for the money! This is awesome.

[crazyawesome68]

springsteen wears his guitar lower than morello

[TheOzzySabbath]

[kaminokuu]

no hay manera, es el dios de la guitarra....

[Henkie010Penkie]

6:46 that's an awesome trick by morello!!

[ZaYaMaNx]

WELL THE HIGHWAY IS ALIVE TONIGHT

[blahblahstimpy]

Morello is a fucking boss...One of the greatest guitarists ever.

[ezerlab1]

When the Boss says: Play!

....you will play.

[patek850208]

whammy pedal

[Splinter363]

Does anyone know WHAT PEDALS morello is using during this song?

[Spindator]

@Splinter363

Vox McClyde Wah, Dunlop Crybaby, Boss RC Looper, Digitech Whammy, Digitech Step Filter (during most of the 1st solo parts) and then probably another Echo, Delay, Reverb, Drive and Volume pedal.

The first 5 pedals I'm 100% sure off, I used them for a couple o' years now, and I absolutely know how they sound. Especially the Boss RC and Digitech Step Filter are instantly recognisable.

[gummo133]

Tom and the E street band sounded like a bad idea.....and it was.

[ilejovcevski79]

@gummo133 why?

[gummo133]

@ilejovcevski79 I just don't think Morello's style fits with the band at all. It is really him just running through his greatest guitar tricks. Case in point: he more or less plays the scratch part of "Bulls on Parade." He should of tried to come up with something more rock n' roll with a little Morello flavor sprinkled in (which he does a little in the beginning, but his bends were mostly out of tune). That said, Morello is a guitar god.

[ilejovcevski79]

@gummo133 Fair and well articulated reasons. I do agree the scratches were a bit out of role, but still...i find this version of "The ghost of Tom Joad" by far the most to my liking. It has both the melancholy of the original Bruce's song and Rage's... well rage, in it. Thus in way it has something that both other versions lack (in my opinion)

[RecreationalCarrot]

6:47 omgwtfbbqsdfbsakvkasdgkjasdgjk­lsahgdf

[MTOTOwaNYAYO]

i remember just flipping thru my channels and i landed on hbo just before this song started....jizzed in my pants like 80 times during the shredding

[dark45naruto]

[T1gRe]

6:47 . O M F G.

[MAGICkush3000]

thes gitar is spicking to me

[iloveyouandNY]

i just shit myself twice

[MrThrashmaniac666]

Tom Morello aprendiz de Michael Angelo Batio, con el famosísimo "scratch" es uno de mis guitarristas favoritos.

[julioabruno2254]

Amazing..if Jesus himself was on stage with Bruce this would be the sound that he would produce

[tdkota]

far out

[koalahottub]

Holy shit. Amazing song. Mind-blowing guitar solo. Love you Tom & Bruce!

[CanIGetaGame134]

@vividhkothari89 its a story about a man named tom joad form the book grapes of wrath

[vividhkothari89]

RxIxP Kelly Thomas

[PhantomMonk2]

NEW WOELD ORDER????,,está en todos lados..esos pvtos ..

[535wer]

one word,AMAZING!

[samsarahmail]

This song. These artists. Amazing!

[Niamorg1007]

Awesome =/= difficult.

Morello's solos may not be very tough to play once you have a killswitch, a whammy pedal and a few years of playing behind you, but he was the first to do this kind of stuff, and it sounds great. He's good at what he does.

[pontarolo92]

@Niamorg1007 Most of Morello's solos may not be hard to play but this one takes way more than a killswitch, a whammy pedal, and a FEW years of playing. It takes years of hardwork and a blessing from God to be able to play/write the stuff he does. Tom Morello is a fucking guitar genius and will always be one of the best guitarists of all time.

[iamMrkarma]

i can never write a comment that will do this amazing performance justice so ill just leave it to this....HOLY FUCKING SHIT

[bushidoearles]

Eminem murdered you on ya own shit!

[tskasa150]

9 people bathed in the city's aquaduct
