hmmh, interesting... i seem to recall an interview from way back in the day when "surfing" was first released, where joe stated that he was using his thumb to tap some of the notes on the g-string in some part of the song, but he doesn't seem to be doing it here... am i mistaken? anybody more knowledgable than me about this kind of stuff? or am i way off and it was actuall "day at the beach"? also, i prefer the shorter, more concise studio version to this one. this is of course still awesome!
Check out a guy named Cyamak Ashtiani, just type his name into the youtube search engine....seriously an INCREDIBLE guitarist.... Weird, unique, JAWDROPPING guitar playing.....you won't be disappointed
Look up a kid named Cyamak Ashtiani, just type his name into the youtube search engine, he is seriously an UNBELIEVABLE guitarist.... Strange, out of the box, INCREDIBLE guitar playing.....you'll be blown away
this guy is very down to earth. I watch Prof Satch the making DVD, he treat the normal guys who participate in I Just Wanna Rock song with much respect.
@Koroar Hi man, you know it's actually true that this song is much easier than it seems, but it remains pretty hard to master for sure, and to make it sound perfectly close to the original.
I've practiced this one for a year, and I still can't make it sound perfect haha
And of course I can only dream of being able to compose such tunes...this is insane! :D
But for real, if you guys play the guitar, don't be discouraged by the technical aspect, get some tab and try it out!! ;)
asi como el mejor guitarrista de todos los tiempos como que no,abria que definir el estilo,no incluyan alos clasicos por que esos no tienen comparacion los electricos se quedan muy por debajo,en cuanto al tapingg el que no alla visto a stanley jordan se puede apantallar con esto pero stanley jordan no solo hace escalas tambien acordes en pocas palabras lleba ala guitarra a un nivel mas alla del piano
Your are a very nice person to show Joe Satriani's tunes, and also Joe looks a very kind person, you can tell that on his face ; thanks for sharing +5***** and more**************
You are all privileged to have Joe in our time. After he is gone, he will still be seen as a revolutionary just as Jimi Hendrix is now. Hail the KING............
hahaha i love how satriani says "u want me to keep going?" like warning the dude he's going to die after listening to this song...AT MIDNIGHT!!!!!!! LOL...
Well, to anyone that says this is easy all I can say is where can we buy your latest CD? Joe is obviously not mainstream and yet there are loads of people that love his music so why doesn't anyone love yours?
You're right though. Midnight isn't too difficult. Most intermediate guitarists can play it with minimal practice. Probably if these Satch fans actually attempted the piece instead of being stuck in a state of childish wonder, they could pull it off.
If anything, this performance isn't Satch's best... He needs t get on the neck pickup and roll his tone volume off to get the faraway sound he gets so well with Midnight
alot of people in their 3 year of studyin theory on there own like me could write this. its based on alot of things. i could never play this on guitar. piano if i had some practice
Mute the strings with ur palm just after tapping (requires LOT of experience and practice...thats what he's doin) or shortcut...use a string dampener, like a hairband etc....
Think about Dragonforce, they can't even play their music, but they make the noise (that 'counts') in studio... I'm not trying to be rude, but I think you don't deserve the fame unless you've perfected your instrument to a satisfactional point.
Hi friends, my name is Eloy i´m 17 from Buenos Aires Argentina.
I play electric and classical guitar. Now i´m in the Guitar Rig 3
Contest and if you like my work, help me with your vote.Search me as Eloy1991ar in youtube and look up the video:My Own Creation For The Guitar Rig Contest.
for me the hardest part of this piece is the las part, i have to slow it down before i can do it at speed, but i can't go at it at the first take... love you Satch, keep playin', i'll keep listening... bye
I'm learning this song right now, the hardest part is definitely the second movment, where the two hands have to hammer double stops at different intervals, it's really hard to keep it clean sounding at the correct rythym.
really, this piece are not so hard as it's appear, butonce you want to learn it, you start at verry slow ritm, and if you got the ritm- you got the mellody tooo.... that's great song... Bravoo Master...
Joe Satriani is guitar Legend, but if you like "Midnight" you MUST!!! see street musican - Stefan Joubert "solo Piano/guitar"!!!!!! - guitar hammering God
lol, He just plays a bit faster with his right hand. In this song, each finger has it's own pattern, which change many times throughout the piece. It starts with the 4 fingers doing single notes in a percise pattern and timing (some notes are hit easy, some hard) takes alot of feeling. Then the all over the neck fast tapping, then the 2 hand alternate tap, then a slow progression followed by the same pattern in the beginning but faster. Let's see you do this .
this is great... sounds exactly like what many people have huge problmes with fingerpicking... and he does tapping... i dont usually say this about people playing songs like this on electric but this was beatiful five stars
