  • @Guitarwizard, Please watch your horrid language. This will not be tolerated. Thank you

  • @ebay9302 Looks like we got a bad ass over here.

  • @tamura1962 , Listen you stupid Jap. Either speak english on this site or get your fish face the hell out of here. Its too bad those bombs missed you gooks; although your skin is probably glowing green from your nuclear blast last year, that was so cool! The band is flying into Munich tomorrow for a double concert so I'm sure to get laid by a couple cute groupies. Man, this is the life! Sorry I'm unable to reveal my identification but management forbids that type of thing on this site, rock on!

  • @playon51, @rockinredneck57, Youre an idiot "playon", maybe I will send them to your place so watch it! "rockinred", Your guitar isnt defective, you are stupid! That guitarwz guy is a fag. Im putting all three of you losers in the hospital! "Bluesman" Thats the way, uh huh,uh huh, I likes it...pussy boys!

  • @ebay9302 OMG!

    seriously - who ARE u? got a name, rockstar? leaving on tour? what, are u a roadie? roadies are awesome, but ur making them look really stupid with your comments! ur posts are so weird, i just have to respond out of shock! the threats of security and hospitals? LOL is that what people are saying to u? and WHO's trading licks with u? do they know ur a complete idiot? i'm in san fransico, r u 'on tour' there? get ur security to "put me in the hospitol" what a dope. lol.

  • @MrTHEcrock, Who is this? Don't waste my time. I'm leaving on a European tour tomorrow am and don't have time to deal with U Tube low lifes. I never have talked down Derek, he's a fine guitarist. I just happen to be better at certain styles as he is with the "Duane" stuff. It's not a competition, we are just two great guitarists that enjoy each others talent. I show him licks and he shows me licks. Big deal. Why don't you people just get a life and leave us the hell alone. Don't piss me off!

  • @ebay9302 liar

  • Which one of you punks is "seline11@tahoo.com"? I want to know how you got my email address and how dare you leave a threatening email! This is GO TIME assface and my security team will find out where you live and then I'm gonna put your beaten face in the hospital! Was it you @dudeandmude? Dont EVER contact me again or your face will be caved in PUNK! "The Bluesman".

  • @ebay9302

    Holy shit, are you on every truck's video. Get off his dick, stop talking shit because you've got to be the biggest pansy out there that threatens someone with a security team . It's funny how easy it is to tell that your the type of guy who talks shit and never has the guts to back it up, and when you do get confronted, you hide like a bitch. Stop whining about Derek's playing too, there's no way in hell you will ever come close to him

  • @ebay9302 Man that is some weak BS. You need to "have my security team" deal with a guy who sent you an email? grow up baby boy. How about a link to your guitar playing video -- put up or shut up.

  • He does when he slows down and uses "Duane" licks but that weird sliding up and down shit with no space in between sounds like shit. I'm fairly critical because I can afford to be. I'm one of the few slide players out there that can out play Derek, although he is excellent. Don't you get sick of hearing the same artists playing the same notes show after show after show? Derek needs to start singing or he's going to fade away. "The Bluesman" "You play over me and I'll kill ya".

  • Gibbons is an old drunk hack loser that sucks. So sick of seeing these chumps over and over and over. Isn't there any talent out there? For the love of God!!!

  • @ebay9302, Derek Trucks doesn't count as talent?

  • @ebay9302 fuck off.

  • すげぇ!

  • Comment removed

  • the absolute most moving 2;06 on guitar ever.......just watch the reactions of the people on stage ( warren ,billy, otell)

  • greenfloyd92, What is your problem? I never said anything derogatory about DT. One of the cooks at work got on my account and starting some stuff but that was a while ago and I apologized for that persons actions. Please don't bother me anymore, "The Bluesman"

  • Billy Gibbons, phoning it in; again.

  • Dude grew up drinkin' peach juice!

  • Monster Trucks!!

  • Hey don't forget Warren Haynes !!!

  • Wink, you don't have a clue, in other words....you are an idiot dude! Now stop wasting my precious time...

    Spoken by "The Bluesman" from Atlanta, telling it like it is...

  • @ebay9302 dude are you serious? I saw your comments on several videos, and you're always criticizing Derek's playing. You can have your own opinion but there's no need to insult other people. And by the way, if Derek has no talent, why is he playing with Billy Gibbons and Warren Haynes while you're sitting in front of your computer? Grow up.

  • Its "ridiculous" and its fast and pyro technotic but its a bit over the top? I mean there were a million notes inside of minute. Try playing slow sometime, now that take real talent; like a space once in a while...

  • @ebay9302 You are kidding right? We are listening to the same stuff?

  • If you can't feel this then you must be dead.

  • He's as close as it gets to Duane. Immitation - the sincerest form of flattery.

  • Hell Yeah

  • First time I've ever seen Billy Gibbons at a loss. = ->

  • Derek can squeeeeeeze every microtone possible out of his guitar with soo much feeling its unreal.. He is light years ahead of the jazz,blues and even the shred players when it comes down to pure touch... He really is a gifted player..

  • Derek trucks has to be the best slide player alive today.

  • derick's solo is a very close version of Duanes on the early recorded version. Dicky Betts used to do it also and I'm sure Butch does. It is their tribute to Duane to play his solo's on some of the tunes he originaly recorded.

  • The part between 0:55 and 1:10 brings tears to my eyes, it's talent/genius/magic.

  • Three of the best on one stage. What could be better? But damn, I don't think my guitar has all those notes on it. I'm gonna take it back, it must be defective.

  • Did anyone notice Warren's face at 0:39? Hard to tell if he's wincing or smiling, either way he's thinking "just d@mn!"

  • Looks like if billy had a white flag he would wave it at this point

  • THAT IS JUST STRAIT UP FUCKIN NASTY

  • When did Mikey from Orange County Choppers learn guitar? LOL

  • the TONE made an appearance! love it!

  • cant put no fire out!

  • Dereks playing is all finger picking?

  • @Harryn58 Yep.

  • Derek is a MONSTER, A LITTLE FRICKING MONSTER.

  • One of the best blues solo I've heard. This guy's got soul.

  • If you like Derek Trucks slide work, look up "Sacred Steel" and check the well he's drawing water from. It's sweet.

  • For example, at Amazon, search this...

    Sacred Steel: Traditional Sacred African-American Steel Guitar Music In Florida

  • @fretts thanks!

  • To bad the video doesn't show billy's solo...I'll bet he stepped it up a notch or two.

  • this needs to be seen by the entire fucking world

  • i bet billy never heard anything like derek's lick @0:38, he didn't trust his ears anymore :-)

  • no pussy ass fenders here, just ball busting gibsons!

  • Shit that boy does take slide up a notch or three.... :)

  • holy shit...how do you even follow a solo like that?

  • @marhar19666 You say to yourself 'i'm fuckin billy gibbons' and you do what you do.

  • those les pauls just got owned

  • Duane is smiling

  • Three awesome guitar players, no doubt., but you can't top the reverend Willie G

  • The Rev, Billie G

  • Billy's just not used to hearing those Eastern intervals - like most of us. But it does add another dimension to the blues, that's for sure!

  • Warren Haynes ain't no slouch either Y'all.

  • I love watching Billy's body language when Derek starts soloing.  That nod of the head that says, "Holy jesus fucking christ, this kid is rediculous"

  • @Guitarwizard

    Yeah, hes FEELING IT !!

  • Blessed be HIS Name +

  • Blessed be HIS name +

  • Comment removed

  • Billy Gibbons is thinking LAWD HAVE MERCY BOY....

  • I think it's just a lot of love and respect for each other's abilities. Derek just smokes on slide on this one and you can tell Billy loves it!!!

  • yoo Billy you should known that blues by hearrt!!

  • All three guitarists can gob-smack us all without a thought, if they were so inclined.

    This just happens to be Dereks time.

    But, man, he incinerates everyone in sight here.

    I like how Billy smiles and seems to think "sounds even better on stage next to him"... and yet Warren looks like he's thinkin', "Hey, Billy, just another day at the office where we stand :)"

  • it's funny how mr. gibbons just watches derek the whole time. wonder what was going through his head ahah. i thought theyd be trading licks

  • Derek Trucks is the best living slide guitar player. Billy has payed his dues. He doesn't have to impress anyone

  • I'm a slide player so obviously I'm a huge Derek Trucks fan, but its Billy Gibbons. The Man is a legend. Trucks will be there with him one day. Who cares whos better. They all rock! They all have things they do better than each other.

  • hmmm... why does Derek Truck's blow the other two away ??? no contest

  • Billy and Warren have nothing to prove ...

  • The three of them are probably the best rock/blues players going right now. Warren Hayes doesn't have to take a back seat to anyone. Billy is a living legend and Derek is THE best slide player n the world. I love to listen to and watch all three of them. For the best of Warren and Derek together, check out the Allman Brothers and Warren doing the Government Mule song; Rocking Horse. It'll knock your everlovin' socks off!

  • I love Warren Haynes as a player, but the two men on the right are two of my all-time favorites, hands down. Some of the tastiest playing and absolute best tones you'll ever hear come from those twenty fingers:D

  • Derek rules this, and I'm a Gibbons fan. He just smears Billy all over the place.

  • Derek needs a great band.....not that his band is bad by any means.....but he is so good and so young. Better get used to Mr. Trucks....he's gonna be around for a long time comin'. Nice vid.

  • @pcburgh01  He is 31 years old and does have a great band. Check out his newest group with wife Susan Tedeschi.

  • @spyguys I have.......it's ok. I mean a group with a name...not Derek Trucks and his band. I think he needs something that comes up a group effort, not Derek playing his own music. You know? I do like all his work though.

  • Sh*t-oh-bloody-dear....

  • i can listen a short lick that came out from derek's hands all day long

  • @ThePhantomRailroads Are you honestly saying that Derek Trucks isn't a real musician.

    You're a dumbass for saying that dude.

  • absolutly my favorite solo on u tube the roll on and offs with the volume knob at the begining bad ass

  • I love at :40 how Billy looks over at Derek like "whoa wtf was THAT '. I've seen Warren and Greg do the same at times

  • billys a cool cat he knows dt is the new young blood , and clearly is having a ball.

    great stuff. but the diff is billy has written and invented some legendary music , that still stands today. very hard act to follow .

  • all you old dudes wanna hang on gibbons and duane please give dt some credit im mean shit 3 times in this solo billy looks at derek like wtf jesus is standing beside gibbons and he knows it

  • @T103168 no .

  • W.H.---D.T.---B.G. That's 3 damn fine players standin there.

  • 5 in my head were christer or aasta please kill it

  • oh jesus christ Derek, why are you so good. The guy is sickening.

  • This guy's fantastic !

  • wow!

  • Derek is the "reincarnation" of Duane Allman!

  • You're doing it right when you can make Billy Gibbons pause to praise you.

  • I just heard some real playin'.

  • That Rascal with the beard can play.

  • Billy Gibbons is just like holy fucking shit ive never seen someone play like this.

  • I love Billy jus droppin' his hands at :37.

  • Who's using the Overdrive Special?

  • derek is amazing and a real humble dude... he is a lucky one.

  • Bloody hell. Derek Trucks is not human.

  • fuck me...

    god thats why im a blues musician love these guy in fuckn lucky to see gibbons in some months got the ticket!!!..

    nobody mentions the god damn warren haynes at the left side.. he can blow people´s mind.. hell yea govt mule

  • Wow! Great freekin' slide.

  • Living legends a plenty

  • Derek Trucks is really one of the knew guitar heroes, no one plays like him.

  • Even Billy Gibbons is speechless

  • he makes that guitar sing like aretha franklin.

  • @gruevintube buddy i love your comment

    that trucks can make you think of a name like that

    to compare him to is ... what? i cant even think of the adequate word

    but whatever it is it is appropriate

  • Duane WHO? lol  (j/k)

  • @dascruicloseout got a haha from that but seriously

    thank goodness you put that 'j/k' in there some things we can't

    kid about!

  • @JustAintthatWay hahaa, yeah def joking! ;-) I was actually just watching some old live Duane footage earlier. Legend.

  • @JustAintthatWay LOL! Yeah I was just being facetious, implying that Derek has filled in Duane's shoes very well! Derek is an amazing slide player, better than Haynes IMO. However, no way would I EVER put Duane beneath pretty much anyone! Duane will always remain in my top 5 players till my deathbed. He had more heart and soul in his playing than most blues players.

  • @dascruicloseout oh man oh man I was gonna type something mean and hateful up but then I saw the JK

  • @bthoma1 ;-) Duane is one of my guitar heroes! I would NEVER ..... However, I was giving Derek some huge praise by saying that. I think he fills in Duane's shoes so damn well. Duane would be VERY proud of Derek!

  • @dascruicloseout Damn well he would be

  • im gonna throw my guitar out the window, go outside, bring it back inside and throw it out the window again.

  • lol..fucken eh!! I'm with ya!!

  • @soursourapples man ive read three laugh out loud comments in a row

    and theyre all true!

  • @soursourapples Listen to Stochelo Rosenberg and Bereli Lagrene and

    you'll want to throw your guitar out the window quite a few more times.

  • GOD FUCKING DAMN.

  • I WAS THERE , I CANT EVEN DESCRIBE IT

  • With all due respect, Billy fans off Derek probably a minute too soon, before the *real* fireworks start. What a gob-smacking solo. Love to see a clip of Derek and BB trading solos together...

  • P.S... Which they did....

  • Between 1:40 and 2:00 is where the "Shit" lives, for me..

    Haynes, Trucks, Gibbons.. You gotta bring your 'A" Game....

  • 1:00 billy gibbons is thinking "damn that boy can play!"

  • Ears.

  • you said it...

  • @BOGATA9

    What is this opinion based off of? Did you even watch the solo in the vid? It was nastyyy!!!!!

  • you're fucking retarded.

  • derek trucks is the shiitt! and you know he plays without a guitar pick.. incredible

  • Trucks is simply incredible.

  • As much as i love the Allman Bro's--Top 5 fav all time bands---The Derek Trucks Band takes music to another different sounding level....Just incredible!!

  • Billy waits for his turn to go crazy soloing!!

  • sounded goofy to me

  • hmm...cool. But, let's not forget.... It's Billy fekin' Gibbons. Sorry son, "and you've done?" Trust me. Jesus just left Chicago.

    Don't get me wrong. Derek rocks. I'm just a big Billy fan.

  • I got my Mojo working... turns out it was just the batteries....

  • man is fu@%ing derek good!!!

  • nice, i was there..it was my 40th birthday on their 40th anniversary....I posted a response with the footage I took too

  • 1:19 = BLISS

  • Trucks IS a worthy successor! Music lives, in fact, it thrives in this man's hands. As to bogota's comment, only Trucks solo'd here, it wasn't a contest. Rev. Billy can hold his own if it comes down to that.

  • Never compare guitar players...... they are individuals. That's that.

  • @flaggfly well said that man (or if you are female, woman :-))

  • @flaggfly Correction :)

    Compare guitar players... don't compare guitar legends!

  • @flaggfly Right you are man, we need to get a campaign going to rid youtube of the "who is better than who" mentality that has infested the place.

  • @Hammer757 amen

  • @Hammer757 Ah that's just kids with little to no ear talkin shit. Pay 'em no mind my friend.

  • @flaggfly Yeah, but Amercans are competetive by nature, they'll never get that out of their system. Even when they make love to each other, they'll ask themselves, "Who won?"

  • @bluesderek O you card , you clever , clever person

  • @bluesderek LMAO I'm american and you hit the nail on the head with that one. It's all in fun. Promise.

  • @bluesderek In America we venerate the individual; ascribing collective characteristics to the whole is antithetical to that concept. In other words, we are not Germans, who appear to culturally drill homogeneity into themselves. And woe to the person who sidesteps the accepted order of things. Since you are a product of that culture, you can be forgiven your prejudices - but you shouldn't attempt to foist your own prejudices upon all Americans. Now go fist your girlfriend as she pisses on you.

  • @beeroosterm I feel tempted to add another collective prejudice to my lengthy list: "All Americans have no humor at all", if it weren't for ize1277. He immediately got what I was trying to say in a mildly satirical tone. Ah, and I wasn't quite sure what exactly "ethical" and "venerate the individual" means to you until I read your very last comment.

  • @bluesderek It is difficult if not impossible to express a "mildly satirical tone" in writing, so I believe anyone could be forgiven for taking you seriously. As for German sexual preferences, these are well known; but dominance, pissing, and fisting are at the top of the list of favorites. Now - am I being satirical, perhaps sardonic, or am I being directly insulting?

  • @flaggfly Well said.

  • Trucks and Haynes are more than worthy successors to the Duane/Dickey era. No disrespect to Duane, a great slide player, but Derek is awesome - jes sayin'.

  • Comment removed

  • Billy next time you show up for a guest appearance and there`s another guitar slinger make sure you bring your mojo. You let Derek embarrass you infront of 5,000 fans. And you stood there fanning the flames. Derek showed you no mercy. Derek Trucks is great but a duel with a Guitar God. Come on Billy. The solo you did on Just Got Paid from live in Texas was far more superior than this. Dont be so nice next time.

  • Slaying!!!

  • That's like HOT+SWEET! Have Mercy!

  • Amazing that stage couls even hold all that talent!

  • TRUCKS!!!!!!!!!

  • Absolutely incredible!

  • DAMN. . that is badass!

  • That is some smokin' guitar picking!

  • I love it when Gibbons starts fanning Derek to cool him off. He's on fire!

  • That's a ridiculous solo! Look at Billy checkin' him at :43-he's like whoa, that's badass!...and it is!

  • it appears gibbons has grown fond of trucks' playing

  • And did you uploaded also from The Gig with Sonny Landreth? Keep going LOL
