the gum "thing" is actually an old singer's "trick", it keeps the throat and mouth wet so one can sing when they have dry,......or as we say "cotton mouth"...Im sure you can figure the rest out for yourself. A great example of another great artist doing this is Greg Lake performing 'Still You Turn Me On' @ the 1974 California Jam, check it out. As for Will Hoge: still deserves more success than he's received so far.......
Went to a Needtobreathe show last year and Will Hoge was the opener... Bear, the lead singer of Needtobreathe, came out to open their set and said these simple words of truth about Will Hoge...
"It's a sad world we live in when Will Hoge isn't selling out stadiums"
@spsfreak .. i was there and toataly agree!... the only reason i went is to see the acoustic will hoge!... posted the vid of this one on my youtube channel .. youtube.com/user/mikeyhoncho... bad ass show!
@sawtoothnationalbank ..."Riff Raff"..WOW! Telling someone off on "Youtube" is like winning the special olympics...even if you win, you're still a retard! Next time you have a thought, please keep it to yourself!! Will Hoge is amazing...
@stsucs1 haha wow i really couldnt have put it better. ik for me its a little challenging just to sing and play guitar but throw in some gum and your goddamn talented. if anything this makes it better haha
If you like this- see Will LIVE. He's phenomenal.

Ah, I got to see him in concert with Shinedown. Quite amazing, honestly though, I'd like to see him again... Just without Shinedown this time. :D
