Dave Martone - "The Goodie Squiggie Song"

[msnz07]

i´ve been su damn tired the whole week, this 4 minute song gave me the energy back faster than 10 black coffees...

[MrKatissimo]

waaaaaaaa

[minorthreat141]

Haha, he makes her slide the squeegie up and down his 'neck'... hahaha

[pooloftunes]

NICE!



[HadBrunt99]

Martone really reminds of Bumblefoot sometimes

[aassyr1111]

i know this guy :D

[mojoefly]

whatta fun song.. i love dave's humor. 

[shortfuse41]

Nickelback is horrible mainstream garbage, but Adair is a really solid drummer

[Jakester2112]

Check out my band THE ANDROID MEME here on youtube, we're with the same label as Dave, Magna Carta. Have a look at our video for 'Sumii'. Cheers! And Ps. MARTONE ROCKS!

[MrKennykaos]

It's definitely an original, and economical idea! The "squiggie" is an elastic hair tie that probably costs like 50 cents!  He uses it on the neck to mute unplayed strings, and it also gives just enough pressure so that if you put it over certain frets you can get harmonics! Half the riffs in this song actually depend on being able to pull off to harmonics produced by the hotties hair tie! OUTSTANDING!

[dimebag4ever426]

this man opened up for joe satriani. what a show!!! man, martone is awesome. coulda played right up there beside satch easily

[dimebag4ever426]

this man opened up for joe satriani. what a fucking show!!! man, martone is awesome. coulda played right up there beside satch easily

[GhostauraYamil8]

hes fucking great live, just saw him last night opening for Joe Satriani

[marioman3343]

I want tabs.

[cool182guy]

The Parker Fly is the best guitar I've ever played. Versatile, fast, easy to play.

[sshorab100]

I saw Dave performing with my favorite Indian Musician Cassius Khan, amazing!!!! When will u 2 play together again?

[Rhamsody]

can someone PLEASE how he's pulling off the harmonics?

[Scratch47]

This man is a textural MASTER of guitar. Everyone go buy his album 'A Demon's Dream', I guarantee you that you'll be blown away.

[Asheriv]

The goodie squiggie's truly a genius discovery...placed at the 5th, 7th and 12th fret, it gives very clear natural harmonics...

[brunoguitar88]

that girl is hot !

[brunoguitar88]

that girl is damn hot !

[zzzzzushi]

dan and dave are some of the best in their respective insturments. its an underground super band. :)

[zzzzzushi]

i thnk the guys that mic up daniels kit are really good. that bass drum is the perfect loudness. his playing is good. i want to be able to play like that.

[awfulguitarplucker]

he somewhat sounds and looks very similar to Satriani

[HillaryHitler]

Has any1 here actually owned one of these Parkers?

My biggest concern would be how they adhesive on the frets

Anybody have one to share a comment?

[Rogeetar]

Nice to hear a monster heavy player with sense of humor and interesting compositional ideas. Glad I stumbled on this guy. Makes me smile

[HillaryHitler]

Satriani's wayward son?

Seriously GREAT PLAYING!

[oscarian]

nice style.  love the rythm change-ups.

[deflex2002]

check it

[ThisThingGoesFaster]

Came across this song via a recommendation by Patrick DeCoste. Awesome tune, full of guitar umami!

[Whyrendog]

Whether you like it or not, pay attention to his use of nodes. Pretty darn bold and accurate. Almost impossible to do live without really knowing your guitar and taking a look at how you play it. I assume that staying in one tuning also helps one to keep this together better too. The nice thing is, you can use the nodes to pick over and add spice not just exploit.

[ZipperBreath]

Who's the babe in the store?

[EricMaldonadoMusic]

His real wife lol

[stylerprofyler]

@ZipperBreath LOL the girl in the store is his wife, carmelle. who's also a model.

[Rhamsody]

@ZipperBreath she looks like olivia wilde

[stlespaul1]

@ZipperBreath His girlfriend, or at least that's what he told me.

[BootyStackr]

@ZipperBreath Carmelina Cupo!

[marioman3343]

@ZipperBreath His girlfriend, and I got a picture with her at the Satch concert in Vancouver.

[hartistry1957]

Face of a Clown; Fingers of a Master.

[tsurridge23]

Oh sweet jesus. He's playing a Parker Dragonfly! Love those bad boys!

[Whyrendog]

I always liked that guitar in theory but haven't heard much recorded with it. Sounds pretty good.

[atylerplai]

@Whyrendog If you ever get a chance, play one yourself. It's the smoothest playing guitar I've ever felt. I played on one in a local Guitar Center that had by chance just gotten one in earlier that day, and walked home with it that day, cause I couldn't imagine playing anything else :)

[DarkFlameRising]

props for the drums too eh, nice job daniel

[rychehed]

He sounds alot like Michael lee Firkins...only not as interesting in my opinion...

[BrianGuitarShred]

Where do you see Michael Lee Firkins at all in this tune? All of MLF's recent music is the farthest thing from interesting...more like dead beat boring, conventional country blues.

MLF's debut album, which is more in this vane, is still nothing like that. Even though I love both, for different reasons because the music is entirely different.

[Whyrendog]

This does sound like MLF, never noticed lol. This is a departure for Martone as he usually dabbles in other tunings and stuff whereas he wrote this album in standard so he wouldn't have work around the alternately tuned parts live.

[davidroys]

@Whyrendog In the Hair Tie Harmonics vid, he says it is open G tuning



[realrockerjb]

@Whyrendog this song is tuned in DGDGBd

[osanan]

hahahahaha

Such a funny video.

lol

[MrHoracedebussyjones]

hey dave,what amp?

[FastrTHNu]

AHHH, this song has taken me like a figgin' week to get most of it down.

Dave is just soooo damn good, its just nasty!

[pacoelectronico]

He reminds me Mattias Eklundh!!

[pacoelectronico]

He reminds me Mattias Eklundh!

[robogrunge]

outfuckingstanding

[introspecsion]

someone get the tabs?

[TintedRedFilms]

haha wow dave martone taught at the music school i took guitar lessons at

[Metallicanatic]

I can top that. I AM taking guitar lessons from Dave Martone..... Jealous?

[analagouswithevil]

Damn that guy is economical. His hands barely seem to be moving at all.

[killmaster]

yeh. his hand dont move a lot because he does lots of string skips so his fret hand dosntt slid up and down the fret board alot. and then his picking hand doesnt move much either, cause he chicken picks the skipped string notes with his ring finger and pinky, and its very subtle. if you look at his right hand up close his ring finger middle finger and pinky all have rly long nails, and his pointer and thumb are cut short.

[BobScoby]

This is pretty smooth. i'd like to see him shred over the Pina Colada song.

[Botdra]

That made me laugh soooo hard! xD

[CarnaticConnection]

Oh man, Dave is such a great guitarist! I just got back from NGW in Purchase NY, and it was always spine tingling walking by great musicians like Dave Martone, Jody Fisher, Terry Syrek, Bill Kratz, and many others. Plus, meeting Paul Gilbert and getting my guitar singed by him made it all the more awesome! One of the best weeks ever!

[connorarei]

Which session?

I was there too.

9-14th?

[RanieriShred]

MALUCO!!!!!!!!

[RanieriShred]

MALUCO!!!!!!!

[PearlNautica]

I need to get me one of those....and yes! Daniel Adair is amazing!

[PearlNautica]

Uuhhh...what's a Goodie Squiggie? Never heard of that saying before.

[atylerplai]

its a hair tie that apparently makes you play like jesus

[guitarosaur]

A "goodie squiggie" is the little elastic hair tie thing he got from the chick at the beauty supply store. You can get yours there or from the oboe player in your local high school band. Oboe players are always eager to give up the goodies!

[Ruebe85]

You don't know how glad i am that guys like him opens new doors in playing guitar.

I love you Eddie vH but your time is up!!!

[richardcdj]

Fucking love this song!! Dan is an amazing drummer

[ice9001]

bit Micheal lee firkins bit Mattias bit satch bit maritone and few more very interesting indeed my new fav guitarist on youtube actually I think the best I have seen on youtube . howcome I havent heard of him before

[Gu1tari2t]

he usually does studio work but he has like 6 albums out, buy his new one Clean" its really good

[gzarrillo]

daniel adair!!!! fucking ROCKS

[RealRiffs]

because that's OBVIOUSLY who's leading this act XD

[angrygoldfish]

Man, this is really interesting. It's got a bit of Satriani in there, though. But it's nice to see people taking inspiration from others and making it there own.

[Guitarhero1000]

I will contest right now that this guy is the future of this genre. I have been a fan of his for many years. And it keeps getting better.

[mbouleys]

pff..the drum pattern at 2:08 is just perfect for the song!! daniel adair is awesome!he shows his skills when he is with martone... is one of my favorites!!

[birdiejoehoaks]
