  • I hope you're not sober at your next campfire shindig, but I do hope this video helps you wow your friends and family when you play Tool's Sober on your acoustic guitar. Also, today I discovered that you can't look at the word TOOL for too long without it ceasing to look like a word.

But judging by how popular this video is compared to many of your other ones (which are awesome by the way) I’d say you have a strong guitar playing contingent of the Tool army here…I play a lot of Tool stuff but would love to see more campfire versions, if such a thing is even possible! Keep up the stellar work my man 👌

    Dude! The "lesson" starting at 8:40 is the best explanation of power chords I've seen!
    I never understood what a "fifth" was (or a third, a fourth, etc.)🤔🤨 It's so clear and simple now.
    And now I understand a power chord isn't a shape, but a root and fifth(s) -- I GET IT!

    Absolutely awesome lesson! Do you think it would be worth tuning baby e to d? That way we could let it rip with complete abandon. It probably doesn’t matter; baby e probably wouldn’t bring much to the party, but it’s a thought.

    • @RyanLendt
      @RyanLendt  Рік тому +1

      I think you'll find that to be "too tasteful". I let that baby e sloppily ring out here and there, it's not a wrong note, and it adds a bit of unscientificity (whoa. apparently that's not not a word) to the mix

    I love this song, but to the younger ones I would recommend not to play it at a campfire if you still want to have a chance to get laid. Or you can play it if you want to tell a girl you don´t like her, without telling her you don´t like her. Unless you found a girl who likes Tool, Kyuss etc. in this case marry her.

      4.1! at T minus 10 I had the funny notion that the leavers album would be done by T minus zero but that's clearly not going to happen. oh well.
      So - "co" implies two, as in copilot of course. then i believe the third person would have to be a vice, as in vice president. Vice-(inclusive-of-co)-circumambulatory-confusion, or V(IOC)CC
