[basketcase5295]

does he always do the encores by himself?? I can't wait for my concert in may!!!!!

[HorseCaak]

@basketcase5295 Not always. This wasn't the encore, he just came out and did this randomly.

So glad I was able to find a good quality version of this online (just heard him sing it last night at the Roundhouse). It really was amazing to see someone sing this in a 2,000 capacity, sold-out venue, without microphone, and to have it be so clear and so good.

Sidenote, I really like that you included the banter (and your subtitles!)

[HorseCaak]

your welcome. the banter makes it more personal and get a feel for our the band interacts with its fans.

[Tang526]

do you have anymore from their performance?

[HorseCaak]

yes but i'd have to dig it up.

[retrograde458]

this man was born to sing.

@jivebandit Hey man. I know it's been some time since you posted your comment. But if you're still interested: I'm pretty sure he drops both his high and low E's down to D. If you play around with hammering on the second string from first fret to third, you will see the pattern. :)

click the snowflake for about a 5 percent upgrade.

[Jungletroll01]

[MenyaZovutSuka]

[jivebandit]

If the guitar would have been in fact unplugged (maybe change title to "acoustic" instead of unplugged?), it would have sounded a lot better. The full sound of the guitar over the speakers makes his voice sound a little week, too bad, I love non-amplified vocals :)

[daisytamtam]

maaaaaan i love love love him!!!

[AHarmlessBlackMan]

what a cool fuckin dude.

[grwagz]

I love it! He just throws his head back and wails it out.
