Favorite YouTube Music Vids

[dibbly_dobbler]

Hi All - this has probably been done before but how about a thread of your favorite YouTube music vids ?

A couple to get us started...

You've probably all seen this (understandably!) very popular vid of a young dude on guitar. He doth rock greatly!

Steve Vai - guitar god with added sprinkling of comedy facial expressions. Check out the final note on the track - genius!

Over to you !

Everytime I hear Vai now, I get this horrible feeling of regret & sadness inside of me...Earlier this year I sold one of his guitars-biggest mistake I have ever made.

Here's my favourite live performance of FTLOG..

Expo '92

Enjoy.

Linky fixed

Steve Vai auctioned off three guitars back in 2001, for the make a noise foundation- a charity set up by Vai to help musicians. The guitars were Red Lace, Neville and PIA...

Red Lace

PIA

Neville

I kept in touch with the winning bidder of the guitars, and two years back he finally decided to sell Neville. I purchased the guitar from him at the beginning of 2007. In a moment of madness, I put it up on ebay in July this year...and it sold...

Regrets, regrets, regrets lol

I remember watching it and being utterly blown away but I didn't have the wit to get a tape in the machine !!

SV truly is a guitar god but 'Neville' ??!!

Me too - it was on BBC2, I think. Fantastic performances all round! I've also got something called 'Into The Electric Age' (or something similar) that I think was shown about the same time. Documentary with Satriani, BB King, Bo Diddley, Steve Cropper, etc. Some nice performance clips from JS too. Would love to find it on DVD - the tape's looking a bit worn out!

Have a look at this guy, he's called Fretkillr, he's got over 100 songs on there, and the stuff he can do with an acoustic guitar is amazing. Plus.... he can sing! Here's 3 examples.
