When the theory master says "do that weird thing" and "what's that climbing thing", you know that's some crazy playing
no one ever knows what phil is playing
^ THIS - a thousand times THIS ^ If your note clusters have Rick Beato dazzled and confused you're on to something special
HAHAHHAHA im dead "can you do that weird thing again...."
Yeah that kinda had me scratchin my head too...
New show idea. Stump rick.
Honestly, Phil X looks like he's always thrilled to be playing guitar. Just such an upbeat and funny guy
Coke
I love his positivity and energy!!
Right? It's like he's a complete beginner that happens to have downloaded guitar skills from the Matrix. "I know Kung fu".
@@TheFlamingChips You got that 100% right.
@@TheFlamingChips he's actually straight edge, doesn't even smoke weed or drink.
How can you NOT love Phil X?
Humble monster of the craft
So much energy.... Is amazing
I don’t know which is better, his playing or his infectious personality. I could watch this for hours. Thank you Rick.
Phil X is my hero.
Rhett Shull is my fatherbrotherhero
Phil X is my guitar hero!
Indeed! I own an Evil Robot and would’ve never even known about it, if not for Phil X! I was laughing along with you at just how damn good he is.
Phil X is the peoples hero.
Mine too, Rhett. Mine too.
Phil is the real deal. Super sweet, genuine guy, and a sick player!!
⁸i
Uncle Ben
He looks like he would be your older brother
Phil needs some one with charisma…cuz he lacks it big tine
@@OfficialFatLip I hope you're joking...LOL...
Just watching Rhett was worth the watch. His facial expressions are gold!
totally thought the same thing...and Rhett is amazing too...so you know when he freaks...well...it's freaking good!
12:50 laugh is priceless after that lick
Lol.. yeah he’s like a little kid meeting his idol.
Did you see Rhett smile when he got the fist bump after the p90 factoid. Lol even Rick is reduced to an ogling fanboy. bouncing around and smiling like a teenage girl on ecstacy at a John Mayer meet and greet.
Rhett looks like he's having such a blast, you can tell he has so much respect for Phil and his overwhelming guitar chops. And I have a habit of watching anything Phil is in, dude is such a happy, genuine person and his enthusiasm is contagious.
He looks a little intimidated too.
"We have a song, I wish my beer was a cold as your heart" I'm an instant fan of Phil
For life !
The power of the English language 😂
I met Phil at a bar in LA. He was watching this incredible jazz band (as were we all), and you could tell what an absolute fan of music he was. He was so locked into the group, smiling and just enjoying himself. I gathered up the courage to go say hi, and buy him a beer. He was everything he appears to be. There's no show. He's just a wonderful excited man and so incredibly humble. His gratitude was palpable (this was before his Bon Jovi fame). Phil is such a wonderful musician, but most importantly, he's a damn decent human being. So happy to see his career skyrocket.
MISTER PHILLEY X IS MINE VERY GOODER FREDES!!!
Did you take him home at the end of the night too?
I echo the same sentiments about Phil. I met him when he was in Triumph at this place in Waterloo, Ontario Canada (many moons ago) called The Red Pepper on a Tuesday night when they held open jam sessions.
The guitarist for the “house band” on those Tuesday nights knew Phil from within the local music community and invited him to come out and play a few songs with them (and he did).
But before the show as everyone was setting up I was introduced and Phil and I talked. He was incredibly nice, funny, humble and just so easy to talk to.
It’s always good to see the good people do well. Phil is certainly one of them.
@@ronmexico1975 No mate thats just a fantasy in your head only
Wow! I never thought I would see any bouzouki-related content here (my home country's, Greece, signature instrument!) , let alone listen to some of Manolis Chiotis's jaw-dropping compositions being played!
And it's so nice to see that Manolis Chiotis's musical genius is still recognised all over the world!
Well done Rick, well done Theofilos!
I like your name, my friend! ;)
@@AndreasGeorgiades Καλημέρα από πατρίδα αλάνια!!!
Rhett's expressions are priceless to the unique and creative personality that is Phil X...
I love watching Rick's and Rhett's heads go full on bobble head when Phil is shredding.
YEah... & then you notice youre doing it too!
yeh and i get the leg going to 🤘🤘
I dont care what anyone thinks, Phil is the most authentic guitar hero there is, the looks, the way he talks, the attitude, the amazing guitar skills he's got... he's like the guy that made every teenager want to learn to play guitar and be the coolest dude... Great vid Rick!
Well said!
Man, who needs any of those streaming services. I can watch Phil just talk music and play for hours. Dude is a full on natural entertainer w/ so much positive energy. Love it!
Phil X does not get enough recognition for his shredding ability for his ability as a songwriter, singer and conductor what a dude
Rick was like a kid with a brand new toy having Phil X in his studio: show us this, show us that, do that weird thing, interrupting him with another question or comment about his playing! Of course, it was all good; Phil appreciated others appreciating his talent and musicality, taking no offense whatsoever. For us spectators, the whole thing was quite amusing and groovy to watch! Definitely one of your top episodes, Rick! THANX!
@@johnvrabec9747 ~ Yeah, Rhett was watching the guitar much more closely; Rick's an old pro who only needs his ears!
8:00 "I wish my beer was as cold as your heart" Oh. My. That's brilliant
I'd popped a top just minutes before hearing that. Whaaaat? Lol
I knew a local brewer who had this one beer, a dark cold one named "Ex's heart", to this day I consider it the apex of brand naming.
@@Nimadj that's amazing
It’s a great little album Kick your ass in 17 minutes
Phil can sing and play ANYTHING, plus he's a lot of fun too. Great guest Rick.
Love hearing different styles like this! Being primarily a metal dude, it’s easy to box yourself in at times. Stuff like this can be refreshing.
As a professional both bouzouki and guitar player myself,it was a great pleasure to watch this video💯💯💯.This is definitely my favourite channel on UA-cam but now i love it a little bit more if that is possible.Greetings and much respect from Greece
Και εγώ!
I also play bouzouki as a profession and only want to say that the 6-string bouzouki is still very much alive, and has not been replaced by the 8-string even if the 8-string is more standard since Xiotis, who is a later bouzouki player, not one of the originals. Also the picture shown is "Irish bouzouki", not the kind that Phil X is talking about. Other than that, this was a great video. Thank you. :)
Phil is like some kind of musical antidepressant. It’s so satisfying hearing him play, talking about music and spreading his energy. Really enjoyed watching!
yeah, i haven't laughed so hard for a while. "I wish my beer was as cold as your heart", classic.
@@cosmikrelic4815 great tune. love the drills.
...musical antidepressant...🤗✌️
Amen!!
Great way of describing what I was feeling.
Phil has always been such a gem of a musician and full of energy and love for what he does. Nothing but respect for that man and happy to hear how well he's been doing in his career!
To me, PhilX’s magnetism is not from his amazing guitar skills but from his real and genuine nice guy personality!
I love how Rhett is absolutely giddy watching Phil play
phil's the most overlooked guitarist and deserves his own island.... I love him !
Yeah! An island with a big X on top and beneath it there is a treasure haha! :D
I want an island! Phil can buy his own!
Phil X is just a freak of nature! Love his playing and he’s a blast to watch. Great stuff!
I have been watching Phil X play since he was about 21 years old back in Waterloo Ontario Canada . amazing to see how far he has come and amazing playing over the years .
I learned absolutely nothing other than that "He's good at guitar" and enjoyed absolutely everything.

Phil X is one of the coolest guys. I messaged him on Facebook when he was still doing the fretted Americana stuff and he was nice enough to respond back. I’ve always appreciated that.
How can you not LOVE this guy? He's literally EVERYTHING you want to be in a musician and EVERYTHING you want in a member of your band!! as well as Who you want to be your lifelong friend and hang out with everyday.
I think Phil is the perfect example of a guy who comes across as a crazy rocker where you don’t realise his musical knowledge is outstandingly good. When he starts talking about the nuances of his playing it becomes apparent that he is a great musician.
There is definitely a Ted Nugent vibe happening there. A more mellow, hippie version of Ted Nugent, but definitely crazy in a good way.
Good morning from Shillong..luv to see more of Phil x
@@SDesWriter without half of his shows consisting of right-wing yapping and no music.
"Do the weird thing". Man, Rick, you're killing me🤣
the funny part is that they all knew what that meant :)
Phil is a marvel. He seems to truly love what he does. Thank you for sharing. Have a blessed day.
I love watching Rick's reaction to him playing. he loves every second.
There’s guitarists who really inspire me and then there’s guitarists so good they demoralize me…. Phil does both…. It’s really f***’n with me.
Right…Every time hear Phil X I am amazed at how good I am not.
@@robertdiehl1281 exactly! Ahhh fml 🤣
Phil's energy and joy is contagious and inspiring!
I could watch Phil play that "weird" thing over n over for hours and never cease to be entertained.
I don't unleash the "virtuoso" tag on too many players, too often .... but there are many... and Phil has to be in that conversation.
PLUS .... he's just a fkn GEM of a human being..... the World needs more Phil X
Phil X ,, standing ovation !
Love seeing and hearing Phil play !
His technique and feel has this over the top “rubbery” sound to it when he’s shredding. He totally owns his playing in every style and aspect. Total badass!
And even those rare moments when Phil's kinda foolin about & messes up... It STILL freakin' sounds GOOD!! WTF! 😝😡😝🤘🏻
man, you just said it! i thought the same but couldn't articulate it. that's exactly it!
Not to mention the dear old bastard can also sing - really sing - while playing those face melting riffs.
Rubbery is such a good term. He just flexes in to the right thing to play. Like he asked a genie to be good at guitar and his fingers never played before but somehow they’re hitting all the right notes.
@@xthexadvantagex1219 wtf? that's gotta top 5 of any description i've ever heard of my playing.
If ever there was a guitarist who truly deserved the big time .. it’s Phil X .. he just makes me smile when he plays
He kinda has the big time, he’s in Bon Jovi now
He’s been playing sold out stadiums with Bon Jovi since 2011 and you’ve heard him on dozens of records (Tommy Lee. Kelly Clarkson. Avril LavIgne. Rob Zombie)….
He’s got the best of both worlds. Jetset rock n roll dream life on tour, then gets to walk the streets and be a normal dude…
Um, i think he knew that and was referring to phil being actually big time but also deserving it.
@@insertchannelnamehere632 I've been watching Phil from the Fretted Americana days .. Im well aware of his success .. my comment is celebrating it !
@@queenhenry3314 I know ..
Phil X is a brilliant guitarist!!! When he talks about bouzouki and Manolis Chiotis the game goes on another level! Love you Phil!
Rick - I have to say you have without doubt, the most appreciative head wobbles I have ever witnessed, when something hooks you in it is brilliant to watch. Just gotten into P90’s myself after being a humbucker head forever. I have been enlightened. Keep up the good work. Best from the UK.
Phil is the most upbeat, humble dude ever. Love him.
Phil X is the dude..
Watch him from the FrettedAmericana dayzzzzz ..man.. what a player..
Whenever I need some inspiration to practice, or even just an attitude adjustment, I watch the old FrettedAmericana videos that he did years ago. He is so great, so upbeat, such a skilled musician yet seems so humble and a genuinely nice person.
@@peterjons3954 He matched his playing with his personality.. he's like Jimmy Page and EVH morphed into one...
Rick, your enthusiasm in your videos is infectious! Love it ! Thank you
Every time I view a video with Phil X doing guitar gymnastics, I am amazed, amused, enlightened, impressed, and smiling.
The thing I love about Phil X, he has a distinct tone no matter the rig he's playing trough.
Big fan of his since Fretted Americana!
Plugged into the ToneMaster
So true.
And the bad monkey
Yes I saw watched Fretted Americana and yes I have a Bad Monkey.😂
Phil exudes joy and fire! He's like a kid playing their first power chord through a Marshall stack.
I'm inspired to learn some bouzouki and googling what the hell that instrument is
Rock and roll will never die...
Couldn’t agree more to every statement! Cheers mate!
What a great guy Phil X is. Loved his unreal playing.
Fan of Phil for some years now, what a great guy and guitarist! Hope to catch a gig of him in the Netherlands some day.
What I love best about Phil X is his personality! He plays like he is always having a good time!
Phil X is one of the coolest people out there. He is an incrediblly talented musician. Have Phil more often! Great energy!
Probably had a lot to do with why JBJ wanted him to play in the band. Not only incredible musically, but really cool and easy to be around.
Phil is one of my favorite guitar players. He has notes in his playing that are out of this world!
Phil is such a vibe!
Phil x is the most likeable guitarist ever.
Greetings to Θεόφιλος X from Greece!! PS: loved how he gave a shoutout to Manolis Hiotis, that man was a legend in Greek music.
I am so happy to have found this while being bored on UA-cam. This has brought great joy
Amazing video sir! Phil X is unbelievably talented, and I love the off-the-cuff conversation and video that came from it. Interesting how adding flat fives and open strings adds a different dimension to your playing.
Best episode ever. The joy y’all had is super contagious and it absolutely made my day. I will get back to this whenever I need to feel good about life. This screams follow-up. There is a ton of crazy guitar lessons in this. So how about it?
…Wish my comment was as good as yours
I freakin agree best episode ever!!! Just pissed that I'm outta town and don't have my guitar with me cuz this was a guitar lesson for the ages!!!!
Ere ere… I could see Rick, Rhett and Phil in a Greek wedding band😂
Rhett is looking to cop licks at first, but then realizes, his eyes can't even Keep up with Phil's fingers!
by the end he was looking for a new pair of shorts...
Hey Rick! Thank so much for this interview, honestly I did not have the pleasure to hear Phil X before but now I am definitely a fan! Amazing energy, Amazing playing and as a Greek from Cyprus and a guitarist I am proud to see an amazing talented artist and guitarist fusing bouzouki with guitar playing and bringing it to new horizons! I am stunned from amazement! 🙏🙏🤘🤘🤘
I have probablyt watched this video 5 times because phil's energy is just infectious, to see Rhett and RIck so blown away showed me how good he really was.
I’m a lowly drummer, so this is all miles over my head, but how freakin’ cool it is to see Rick and Rhett shaking their heads in complete awe
Don’t worry, whether or not my fellow guitarists will admit it, it’s over the vast majority of our heads too.
@@queenhenry3314 Rick & Rhett are fine players, so when you can get them shaking their heads giggling like little kids you know you got something.
I took a few lessons with Phil in Toronto and saw him in open jams dozens of times. Killer player. Funny guy. Super modest.
And keep in mind…. he’s not even playing his OWN guitar.
OPA!!!!
🇨🇦🙏
He let me play through his rig many times on jam nights back in the early ’90’s. Such a great guy and guitar player.
I think this is the best guitar lesson I’ve ever experienced, Phil you are a legend, but so are Rhett and Rick
😄🤩That infectious smile you get when Phil cuts loose and every musician in earshot can't help but love it!
When Phil uses a P90 pickup he makes it into a “P90X”.
dude the music theory and everything is super cool and i do my best to learn, but man what i really enjoy is the JOY you have. its written all over your face and it just cheers me up man. thank you so much, i love your channel!
So enjoyable to watch. The passion towards the instrument is so evident that it has a flow on effect to us all. Like all great musicians Phil's understanding of rhythm is what make him so good. When guitarists ask what they can do to get better I always say "learn how to play the drums." So many unbelievable guitarists can play the drums and at the very least understand rhythm. At the beginning of the recording when Phil played the acoustic you can see he was tapping his foot the whole time, rule no 1. Really enjoyed the bouzouki riffs too.
Phil! Another great Canadian guitarist. Make us proud Phil.
I met Phil and his wife in LA 20 years ago, and he was one of the most down-to-earth awesome guys I have ever met.
Not hard to believe! He seems so genuine.
Dude never abandoned his "inner child" passion for playing, love Phil X! ^^
ok...last comment...I promise...but...seriously the best 20 minutes of my week...actually...maybe the month... that closing solo and tone....just wow!
Phil is an amazing player. Please have him on again.
The way he says duuude to Rhett makes him such a chill guy.
So what I got from this, is that the Greeks invented shred. Nice.
I always love the unashamed frothing that Rick and Rhett show on their faces when the guest artist shreds, the appreciation is very refreshing.
I'm watching it fifth time and it doesn't get boring. Amazing. More Phil X please
Absolutely love how Phil is so laid back and always seems super stoked to be playing, but then instantly turns into the serious technician when he explains his playing. He’s certainly a top shelf player and a joy to watch perform.
Phil X: *Shreds on guitar*
Rick and Rhett: *shake head left and right*
Typical guitarist reaction when they see another guitarist rip it in front of them. :D
It's like, good heavens, look what that man is doing to that guitar
No one hits it out of the park every time they go to bat. This one is way out of the park. One of my favorite shows so far. Thank you so much.
I love Phil X. The energy the guy excudes is amazing. He just loves playing... I think Rick, Rhett and all of us are equally blown away.,.........
I love watching established, well-versed musicians get blown away by other musicians! Such a good video!!!
"Do the weird thing!" That's perfect for a mug or t-shirt.
From Rick who is so eloquent and knows every sus chord by name you know his mind is blown when he says DO THE WEIRD THING! annd starts bouncing around around like a kid!
Great video RIck , it just shows how influences from different cultures music can spark new ideas musically !!
Great seeing Phil X, you always see him smiling and joking. Unreal how talented he is as a guitar player, and singer...... music in general just awesome. Would love to meet him one day. Cheers from Canada. (Maybe you will do a full interview with him)? Thank you for sharing Rick
Greek bouzouki music is stupidly underrated, and I'm really glad Phil's doing it justice in some way!
He makes me proud as a Greek
@@tasosdiaforetico7377 I believe it is Xenidis (Ξενίδης)
@@tasosdiaforetico7377 not sure…
@@tasosdiaforetico7377 Θεόφιλος Ξενίδης Theophilos Xenidis
It is very underrated. I wonder what would have happened if Markos was allowed to leave Greece and tour the world. Unfortunately Markos had a criminal record for going AWOL from the army, so the Greek government would not give him a passport, so he never left Greece his entire life, even though he is the most important musician in modern Greek music. It's a shame.
You know when Rick and Rhett are in awe, this is some serious sh*t! AMAZING!!!
A few years ago I saw a Bon Jovi concert in Macau and after the concert the band was in an after party in the club in the Venetian. Out of all the band only Phil X would agree to take pictures and talk to the people. The others were hiding behind the body guards and didn’t mingle with the fans. I was asked Phil X if we could take a picture together and he gladly agreed and asked me where I’m from and what i do and was genuinely NICE! What a great guys and of course fantastic musician! ❤️
Phil X is just an amazing Guitar player. This is a great interview.
From a Greek, thank you for mentioning Manolis Chiotis, who has been a real master, a true musician, and a phenomenal bouzouki shredder!
When in Greece, keep your back to the wall at all times
Watching the looks on Rhett Shull's face while Phil X is shredding is all you need to know.
Love watching your reactions to Phil's playing.
OMG - that rhythm work with the drones / open strings >16minutes is soooo good. Who needs a band!
Phil is just a cool guy! He’s always so upbeat and happy. His playing is superb too. Definitely one of my favorite artists
Rick's guitar and amp + Phil's Hands = tonal bliss. His style is undeniably recognizable. Also, seeing Rhett and Rick's reactions to the things Phil finds normal is the funniest thing ever
Amazing!! You three did create an atmosphere that I thought I was there with you!!
I watched so many Phil X videos back in the day, absolute legend.
