How to Play Mr. Blue Sky Solo

[x3seriesx]

too bad i couldnt see the begining of it since your stupid fade transition got in the way...FAIL

[alcoholicsemintrower]

I fear that your E(The string on the very bottom)is out of tune.

[newpage323]

omg i have that guitar!!!!!!

[carot2003]

Helpful, thanks..

[bluescreenjames]

Awesome video... Sounds just like the orginal!

[MrJGKey]

Great solo

[MrJsdoc]

U didnt show the start

[abelnimations]

What fret r u playing it on??

[Raz951]

@abelnimations  he plays it on the 10th fret and then moves to the 12th before going back

[wassupthesky]

has anyone else noticed that the tone of the guitar on this solo is very similar to the tone of the guitar on the song "Blue Sky" by the Allman Brothers?

[adamshakermaker]

Cheers!

[X59productions]

this helped alot thanks man!

[zoovigger96]

WOAH WOAH WOAH this isnt wrong is is the right way to play it

[zoogle7]

i dunno what you're talking about it sounds exactly like the original

[666fannyfart]

maybe you should watch a few vids on how to yourself as this is very wrong for many reasons.......sorry to burst your bubble.

[NDOrehowsky]

oh really? explain further.

[trossachs2003]

Leave your bubble intact. Fanny fart's comment is moronic and unhelpful.

[Fakenamesareboring]

@666fannyfart What a loser. Or perhaps--since you're an expert, being that you've stated you give lessons--you should upload your own demos. But then every one might tell you how awful you are and you wouldn't be able to hide behind rude comments and a horrible screenname.

Uploader--sweet vid.

[NDOrehowsky]

@666fannyfart read my annotations! starts on 10th fret

[phoobingcamel]

@666fannyfart Nope, it's correct. I've been listening to this song since it came out and have been playing the solo for around 20 years myself, it being one of the first solos I learned after picking up the guitar. I don't play it exactly this way these days, having adopted a more Phil Bates style, however this example is correct and it's a welcome change indeed to find a tutorial video on YouTube that IS actually correct! Thanks and well done NDOrehowsky :-)

[ProfEssIonalTalEnteR]

@666fannyfart - Shut up mate............Do a video yourself then....Leave others to appreciate their own achievement, nice video mate :)

[plinthman]

Wow, this is an excellent how to video, you should do more like this!

[rugshort]

nice one man. trying to work it out on mando.

[delau12]

[NDOrehowsky]

[thefray123]

YOU USE THE SAME PICK I USE!!! the "COOL" one right? with the grip?

[NDOrehowsky]

uhh haha idk i think its just the standard one haha

[ForeignerDude]

Cool video man, unlike some of the videos where the song is just shown slowly this is perfect what with the camera angles and all...

[NDOrehowsky]

thanks a lot ForeignerDude.

[teaguild]

nice, thanks this helped me a lot and these people who are saying this is a waste of time, are probley rubbish at guitar i mean you can see what frets your on and stuff

[NDOrehowsky]

yo i made it to help people. thanks alot for your supportive comments - these other people probably are rubbish at guitar, so thanks again!

[trap0001]

Oh dear, your best intentions seem to have been wasted on some people here.

[NDOrehowsky]

aha yes, unfortunately it seems that's the way it has ended up.

[dude888777]

dude this is good...and these people are on crack.

you show frets...

bends...

picking...

position...

I don't know what else they would need to learn it....lol

thx

[NDOrehowsky]

thank you, this is the best comment i have received and yes, these people are on crack.

[Dioxalas]

lessen means teach

[NDOrehowsky]

yes, i agree that lessOns mean to teach, and if you are trying to go against my HOW TO video, then you are wrong because i say lesson nowhere.

[dinicolagjd]

sorry, and charliest123 (loser name) but he is, and maybe u just suck at guitar so bad u wouldn't undestand if he spend 2 hours explaining the first few notes

[JLLproductions]

i thought u were goin to teach us not sow us u playin it

[NDOrehowsky]

well i guess you thought wrong

[JLLproductions]

well the vid is called HOW TO PLAY Mr. Blue Sky Solo

[NDOrehowsky]

yeah thats true. but i'm showing you HOW TO play it. i never said i'm teaching you it.

[charliest123]

When you say HOW TO PLAY, that means you are going to show HOW TO PLAY, meaning you're going to TEACH us.

And wow you are really cocky.

You're no guitar genius.

[NDOrehowsky]

nowhere does it say TEACH in my video, and how am I cocky?

[NDOrehowsky]

okay, i say HOW TO PLAY, and you said, 'that means you are going to show HOW TO PLAY'. yes, you said SHOW. i never said that i was going to TEACH you, and if you are so critical make your own TEACHING video of this.

[charliest123]

change the title to ME PLAYING MR. BLUE SKY SOLO so people will stop wasting time watching this

[NDOrehowsky]

no, and you didn't yet answer my question, "how am i cocky?"

[charliest123]

i'm pretty sure your profile used to say something along the lines of "I'm only 14" or whatever your age is.

that's kind of cocky!

[Btoof]

I don't think he needs to take lip from a fucking girl that subscribes to the jonas brothers. So lay off he tried to help people out by SHOWING a song and you just started getting all critical. GET a life!

[NDOrehowsky]

aha thanks

[NDOrehowsky]

just enjoy it

[dinicolagjd]

Niko, how's anyone supposed get that. not everyone is a guitar genius like u

[NDOrehowsky]

its called learn the guitar, then find out what notes sound like and where frets are on the neck. use tabs too

[NDOrehowsky]

see what you have started george? i'm not guitar genius and this was just helping people play this solo so everybody can just relax

[xSoilderx]

this is how you teach songs like snow hey ho not solos

i didnt really understand maybe its just me

[NDOrehowsky]

alright...

[Btoof]

dude thats so much now i can play the solo!

[NDOrehowsky]

[Tannamontana1]

Thanks man I love this song and I've been wanting to learn how to play the solo so thanks

[NDOrehowsky]

[matoy77]
