I grew up in the seventies and eighties listening to the Dead. Every time I watch your videos, I feel like I'm back hanging out, partying and Jamming with my old friends again. Great vibes, Peace!

@@TobyDavvy Saw my first show in 7/4/89 buffalo, awesome show but it was before I really was a deadhead. so I didnt appreciate it. More into partying. You make the lessons interesting , I like it!! What do you think of Jerry and merle Keystone encores? Maybe do a lesson from there. One kind favor, second that emotion?
you have a GD cover band? Any you tube shows?
This is a-mazing... Thanks for breaking this down for us and congrats on hitting so many subscribers - well deserved !
Really appreciate this, Scott. Thank you

Great suggestions! Thanks for being here, Jack!

Love you Davvy! Thanks!
Love you, bro bro!
Good stuff davvy, by being truly authentic the world will gravitate to you 💀🥀⚡️
We can’t be anything other than ourselves, so
Hopefully it works out. Haha
You did it!?!!!! You redid my jimmy jam ahhhhh my hippy brother. BDE you the man!
Damn straight
Hey Davvy! Cheers from Brazil, where NOBODY knows the Dead!
Thanks for all the awesome lessons, they always helps me play these songs I love so much for my friends who thinks the "Grateful Dead" is a hardcore metal band hahahaha
Please, record a lesson for Jack-A-Roe! For days this tune are playing in repeat on my mind!
Thanks for being part of the family!
Love the remake! Love this song! Thanks man.
Thanks, Tom!
Davvy, you have a gift for teaching. Keep it real. Navy Davy (of the Rusty Anchors) ....
Thank you man!!! I love that song!
It’s one of the best, isn’t it?
Yes it's
YAY! Thank you! LOVE IT!!!
You got it, homie! You’re the one that suggested I redo this one
@@TobyDavvy Hell yeah, just played it though. Excellent. Thank you so much! Keep up the good work on Play Dead!
Davvy can you do one more saturday night tmrw!! They aren't any good tutorials on youtube and it seems really fun to play. Thanks
I can feel the Edim7 tension..down in my PLUMS.
Bluish hue.
Your tutorials are awesome. A few times you said minor 7 but the chord on the screen said minor.
great lesson! you should do a lesson on Rosalie McFall sometimes not sure if the dead ever played it electric though
I’ll be doing an entire acoustic series soon
sometimes I feel like davvy knows my rukind search history and also knows which ones I struggle with than makes a video on that one.
I am psychic.
It’s sad that so many people relate the Grateful Dead’s music to drugs. Their music is just great without drugs. 99% of lyrics and music has nothing to do with drugs.
My hero
Omg. You make me laugh. Thanks! Plus I.learn a lot
Davvy, what is chord between Eflat and Gminor (@ 12:36-12:37)? Looks like you snuck one in there
Can you please repost your original lesson?This lesson is great but I bet the original sounds like a real gem!
Used to go to Winterland all the time 😊
You lucky devil
Love the page! Do y’all have a lesson for Wharf Rat anywhere? I can’t find it.
No wharf rat yet, but maybe next week?…..you never know
Any way you can explain the theory behind the chord changes? I’d love to figure out the mindset they had when writing it.
Haha. Nah. How would I know the mindset they were in when they wrote it?
@@TobyDavvy i think what hes asking is why the chord choices and how the chords serve the progression
Dude, you're the best!! Great guitar player and I have fun watching you dick around. Thank you brother. Can't let this music fade. We will never see anything like it again. Great job keep it up. My hats off to you
This means a lot. Thank you!
Video starts @2:40
Can definitely hear a lot of Mayer riffs
Yo. you. Happy New Years... I know its kinda hard but could you do one on Stranger for maybe 2 guitars. I know its dorian and stuff.... Thanks.. (The Lone ranger was a stranger, how about you?)
Please do eyes of the world
Hey Davvy, love Davvy 3.o, but why so hard on the old Davvy and the original "ship of fools" lesson. I love that one, and I'm sorry to say, despite all the cool awesome new graphics I'm gonna stick with the original. Love ya
"Play in B mixo" doesn't make much sense, your solo sounds in key though...I usually just start in Bb penatonic and feel my way around but it's a tricky progression.
I more than likely just misspoke. I probably meant to say Bb.
The scale is in Bb mixolydian? That sounds weird.
This guy is absolutely annoying and obnoxious as fuck but... ya know he’s a really good teacher! Best quality dead lessons on the tube, I tune in not because I think you’re funny but because you do a beyond excellent job at teaching me and the internet to play dead! Keep it up, love the series!
I’ve never seen a pocket collar before. Trendsetter!
Can’t stop, won’t stop
See ya tonight!
Davvy - you know I love you brother but what's up with the flag at the 4 second mark?
Lmao. That would be the winner of the worlds most offensive flag. I’m assuming it worked?
@@TobyDavvy it certainly got some people worked up ... was that the purpose? to create a flag that offended everyone... I can hear it ... but in that case we missed a few
I mean, I didn’t make the flag. The point was to show a flag you shouldn’t raise.
@@TobyDavvy Got you ... that makes sense ....
Your so funny bro😂
Just when i think you couldnt screw up anymore ....
You go and totally redeem yourself...
Lmao.
Love your vids. Didn’t quite get the swastika on the flag??
It’s supposed to be offensive. It’s a flag you shouldn’t raise. Get it?
Hmm. I guess if you have to explain it.....either way great vids. Request from me is more JGB. How Sweet it Is (that opening lick) or Let it Rock (22 min one worth spinning 11/8/76). Loved Shining Star btw.
I really shouldn’t have to explain it. It’s extremely straight forward. But yeah, homie there’s more JGB comin down the pipeline
When’s the one more Saturday night tuto comin’?
It’s a comin, bro bro
Black muddy river!?
what abt a st Stephen lesson
It’s comin!
I appreciate you and you are a gifted teacher, but I have to throw a penalty flag on your supposition that these "strange" chord changes are purely drug induced. From the perspective of someone who understands ther rudiments music theory (as I'm sure you will agree) these changes are inventive, but not "out of the sphere". They fit, and they obviously make sense. This progression has to be defined as new, and unique. It's definitely weird, but by definition the obviously found some new ground.
That said, your brilliant interpretive breakdown is spot-on and super helpful. Thanks for the good work ! Keep on keepin on. You are obviously talented and doing great work. Much appreciated !
Dude, I'm gonna murder this for the Dead Covers Project... or maybe not ;)
DO IT, bro!
@@TobyDavvy done and dusted Bro ;)
cordy as fuck and linear but jeez so worth it
I like to sing this song “shit in pools”
