[MitchTenderness]

my favorite things was great.

[ramzahnY]

You are the first of the "amateur" Chapman Stick players I listened to here on Youtube, who has and can hold a groove.

(not suggesting you're an amateur though)

[mickfizz]

is that a rosewood stick your playing there? I love the tone with compression on the bass

[WhelanBass945]

Wasn't expecting to see soundgarden. You've got a nice blend of different styles. Really cool.

[mickfizz]

hey darrel is that stick a rosewood stick ,i think you have the best stick-up tone ,bass and melody

[mickfizz]

your a very underrated player, i hope to hear more of you , hope youl='ll put out some original material

[WolfOverdrive]

DUDE! THAT WAS AWESOME! "Walk don't run" was also amazing! Yeah, Chapman stick is like the coolest instrument ever...in my opinion, at least.

[Artemisgoldfish]

You should totally record your arrangement of Black Hole Sun, that'd be incredible. Pleeease?

[zRev1983]

Im so getting a stick!!!

[rogeralcantara]

i so want a stick. awesome arrangement of Black Hole Sun by the way. :)

[s4uc3ybaby]

Can someone please tell me how do you play like that on any guitar? I try so hard but I cant!!!!!

[NoFearDJB]

Awesome stuff Darrell.

Loved the cover tunes as well, Black Hole Sun was awesome, as well as the Latin Jazz tune. Hope to see more vids!

[dustypuppy]

amazing - that is awesome.

I really enjoyed that demo. Seen the chapman stick a few times before - once live.

very impressed - well played

[jernov]

It looks great, but i prefer the standard guitarist+bassist setup, lol. it's also more fun to jam with a friend, rather than being able to do it all by yourself, and therefor doing it all by yourself :p

[edenmaze]

Phrase sampling kicks ass! :-)

[edenmaze]

Does it have a couple of outputs?

Cuz I hear effects on the top end, and the bottom is dry....... JUST LIKE WE LIKE IT...... LOL

[Chester31124]

yea, those have stereo outputs so you can do exactly what you were describing. they have two different sets of pickups too

[Oldwise123]

its one output, but u use a mono to stero cable. And use bass and guitar amp^^

[edenmaze]

Very Cool!

[demoniciceberg]

Like, this is amazing, love that stuff...chapman rules, and this gentleman is awesome!

[gjsjrr]

What does it sound like w/o amplification & electronic distortion?

[KlemmerV]

You are very good. I would love to play an NS stick but they are way out of my price range :(

[nearearthobject]

I am 'highly' impressed. I already knew you were a great musician, you also have skills at producing as well. Glad to see you here as well bro.

[Surpeis]

Very impressive!

Crazy skills, but I just cant help it:

I have seen a few Chapman sessions now on the internet, and though its impressive to watch I still havent found one that sounds like much more than a half-decent guitarist playing with with his half-decent bassist buddy..

So Im having trouble getting what this instrument brings us purley music-wise, as I still would prefer EVERY tune ive heard played by a regular setup...

I could still watch it for many hours, though :-)

[nearearthobject]

this is true, somewhat, but when you are the musician performing the chapman it eliminates the number of people getting paid at the end of the night....haha

[MeinenMusik]

try searching for Guillermo Cides, he uses a looping station with the Stick and has some wonderful stuff :)

[yojostaif]

then just imagine what 2 chapman players would sound like... thats what it brings us music wise

[chiptominius]

mr octopus prime (because he plays two different instruments at the same time) does it again..haha.. u got mad skills on the stick, man, i was gonna try to pick it up and try to learn it, but i cant find one for less than 1 grand.... and its hard to pay that much, lol

[RealitySage]

"Funky D" is the most happening Stick player in Mississippi!
