Devin is right. Herman is doing wonders for the community. I always liked him from the Guitar Hero days but dude, he is so awesome. He deserves all the sucess.
100%
Devin just comes across as a very cool dude. So modest and honest. A real breath of fresh air. And he can PLAY.
Met him many times too, he's an amazing guy!.
Devin is the coolest man to ever exist
The science is sound!
I can't argue. 🤷♂️
So cool that he needs to wear mitts.
God damn right
Devin's voice is other worldly.
Probably two of the coolest guitarists and guys in the world.
Devin is a legend ...very clever guy.
Playing in Open C changed how I play guitar entirely and made me a better guitarist because of it. Highly worth it!
i play in open b because of Devin. game changer for me, I feel more creative. how about you
Open b in 7 string is wild!
Saw the Sex and Religion tour too.
I was 23
When Devin cut heads with Steve about 5 feet in front of me, I knew .... everyone knew...that Devin was going to do great things.
But I don't think anyone would have predicted just how badass he has become
Holy crap Devin Townsend!
Again. A video to smile about. My attention span stretches for videos like this.
One of the best gigs i've ever been to was Devin and his band in a small tent at a festival. Amazing.
Humbleness in greatness...almost like a little self deprecation, is an extremely endearing quality...really enjoyed this.
dang, Devin is orgasmic in his licks. Holy crap what a guitarist. Thanks for your hard work, Herman and Devin.
It still blows my mind how Devin can play something so simple yet make it sound so insane. He's such a good songwriter/composer.
I was gutted that I missed this livestream, but these highlights were wonderful! I thought I'd never see how their interaction went down. I'm glad it was fun for both guys, and for anyone watching! Thank you, Herman, for making Dev feel at ease 😁
And yes, Herman is amazing for doing what he's been doing for Jason. Such a true gesture of gratitude and selflessness!
I've heard Devy in a few interviews saying he doesn't feel the need to shred anymore but seeing him bust out the chops is so cool. Great video!
You guys are 2 of the most wonderful people walking this planet. Genuinely. Just do what you love, don't really give a crap about what others think just go your way, and then do these epic donation stuffs, bring people together, and make the epic even more epic.
I watch this live. It was so fun to listen to Devin's talk and guitar playing. 👍👍
Singularity on Empath is my overall favorite song from Devin. 22 mins of gloriousness. Fly is probably my second favorite. Most of my favorites from him are his more toned down works. He just hits the emotions in a way other musicians haven't done to me before. Of course SYL was amazing. I guess it's just easier to say that pretty much everything he's done is great.
I agree. I absolutely love a lot of Devin’s heavy work (the ending riff to “More!” is so f’in’ brutal), but once I heard Ghost, Casualties of Cool, Empath… I love how soft and heartfelt Devin can be. Ghost especially holds a special place in my heart. It’s one of those records I always listen to from start to finish because it’s so magical and comforting.
I have never picked up a guitar and this is incredibly fascinating.
If you ever find the time or interest, I highly recommend it. I had a $15 acoustic guitar from a thrift store laying around, and picked it up one day out of boredom. 4 years and 6 guitars later, it's my main hobby
@@shannonmitchell8515 how would you recommend I start? I have two guitars from friends that are basically on display because I can't seem to find something to motivate me to get past the "i have no idea what i'm doing" phase lol.
@@White2098 If there are any songs you really like and think would be cool to learn, start there. I started by learning simple stuff like Green Day and Nirvana, which kept me motivated. There are plenty of UA-cam tutorials/lessons for songs and various techniques. I would just say don't overthink it. I began by just learning songs and not focusing too much on technique, as it came naturally with practice. Then as you get better, you will start to focus on various techniques to better your playing ability
@@shannonmitchell8515 keep it simple, makes sense haha. thanks Shannon! 🤘❤️
This is awesome! Devin is so good and completely under rated
this is such a weird cross over for me. i have been a huge dragon force fan since i was 14. recently discovered devin 2 years ago and fell in love. what ever led to you 2 legends meeting, thank you
One of the cleanest guitar players that often times gets overlooked is Eric Johnson. The man is just so smooth.. And has some super creative melodic riffs. He can't be excluded from the conversation either.
And Shawn Lane the best to ever do it.
Fantastic chat. I agree with having to many options can be a creative distraction.
God, everytime I see an interview or documentary with Devin I just wanna hug the dude, he's so damn sweet, kind and humble!
Devin has a wall of sound to him and that is why i love him.
I love Devin. The guy is just a blessing. Also Canadian. Again thank you for sharing and having unbelievable musicians on for a great cause. I hope whoever buys the guitars give them back too Jason. Great idea 👌
Saw, clicked, liked, started watching, saw Devin play solo, life is complete, the end.
Whoah Devin Townsend. 1 of the best voice in metal. Multi instrumentalist. Such a genius.
Thx, Herman and Devin!
I'm so glad to see you finally got Devin on the stream. I love both of your music! Keep up this concept Herman!
Devin is a underrated solo guitarist. And its mostly by him self.
@Keith quesenberry dereck trucks plays in open tuning and he is the greatest slide player alive
@Keith quesenberry Your ignorant comments don't legitimize you as anything but a prick; which has nothing to do with music, nor with playing a musical instrument.
You sound like the type of person that *begs* people to let you be in their band, or tries showing up at random high school "talent shows" (despite you being in your early 30s) just so you can show off your "guitar mastery" in hopes that you'll actually win, or that you'll get some "validity" (aka "Street Cred".)
Oh, before I forget - - Has your album "Shredding Balls: Live @ Some Random Guitar Center" gone multi-platinum yet, or are you still trying to record it without being caught?
@Keith quesenberry ah ok......what ah waste of comment
@@howardstark i think you just de-atomized that dude holy shit
@Keith quesenberry Just getting on the train of everybody shitting on you!
Devin: "Can I just play clean?"
Engineer: *SMACK* "What's wrong with you boy?"
Two of the most humble individuals on the planet!
Collab or bust Herman!
This was amazing!
Thank you...
so happy to see two nice friends ❤️❤️
awesome moments!
oh, yeah, finally one of my fav artists!!
Glad I finally saw this!! Amazing, funny, clever, and great musicians and human beings
*2 guitar gods* sharing nothing but good vibes.
Devon Townsend. My favorite Canadian. Bang on with rule numero uno for contemporary everything (especially guitar sounds): Can you make a decision!
Very nice. Devin is really interesting to listen to. Love his playing too.
It should be illegal for devin to be such a skilled guitarist and a ridiculous vocalist.
I always forget how insane of a guitarist Devin is, he never goes out of his way to show his skills lol
@@Hellion6325 because he composes rather than solos.
GREAT ALBUMS THE BOTH OF YOU, AS A MUSICIAN THANK YOU TWO, AND SO HAPPY WE STILL HAVE YOU DEVIN, LOVE YA BROTHER.
I’ve never clicked on a video faster in my whole life.
THIS is a talk i needed to hear. Now the wait for the Angel Vivaldi stream begins.
OMG so happy he got Devin on the show
Devin's guitar is too sexy.
Devin's everything is too sexy!
@@theangrylizard1990 Even the skullet was sexy
all of them, every guitar hes used for tours or videos has been fantastic
This is the guest appearance I live for
“I’ll kick you out instead”
Nice way to end a call. Lol
Shoutout to Reb Beach! Love to see him on the show!
fuckin hell, 2 guys I've liked for years talking shop & noodling together, more!!
Two metal heroes right there! I never could have imagined I'd see them jammin' together (even if it's just over the internet) !
And even if Devin has said in the past, he's not really into the super fast techy "show-off" style, or "wanking" for lack of a better word. (his magic is more in the slower, heavier, emotional type of riffs/melodies) .He does sometimes indulge in it, and I can see here two very different types of musicians getting along just fine
Brightest star of all amazing song it's on repeat fav songs of all time.
Biggest Guitar Sound ever made me instantly think about The Molten Larva by Frontierer.
7:40 damn.. surprised to see Devin Shred like that.. shred on man
Listen to his solo in "Failure", live at Plovdiv. Devin is a serious guitarrist, he just doesnt show it off often.
Go listen to 'Wrong Side' by Strapping Young Lad. Devin is hitting massive sweeps all while singing during the chorus. Back when he was in Steve Vai band he used to play along with Steve quite easily as well. Low key Dev is a monster guitarist.
Still listening to Infinity 20 years later
It's very cool since Devin always plays in open tunings, so their leads contrast each other in a really neat way. They're different but equally cool.
Love see this 2 legends of metal music together in a cool conversation respect🙏☝️💪👍🤘🤘
When Devin actually tries to improvise ridiculously metal epic solos he knocks it out of the park haha.
Awesome, respect.
Devin's singing is on another level
MY GOD! IT'S A DREAM COME TRUE. It's like my UA-cam feed is starting to coalesce.
14:40 little shred is every child’s first hearing to electric guitar! Shivers!
Those approaches... You're so awesome... 🤟🏻Metal!!
Nerds...
Lol I love it. I really enjoy that both of you can talk with so little ego towards each other. That is really hard to do! It really helps convey useful information and experience, instead of getting hung up on pretty little tricks and who's smarter or some shit!
Thanks guys!
i always thinking about Devin as an insane vocalist
Herman is always so apprehensive when his guests play! He is always playing along in his head. Really great!
awesome!!
I ❤️ Devin
what the hell? congrats to 1 mil subs, totally missed that
Devin is the Messiah !
The "cheesy guitar faces" hahahaa
Nice to see Tony MacAlpine getting some recognition!
Awesome!
F*ck it! Every time I see one of these videos, I get more respect for Herman Li!
Well done, sir. SUBSCRIBED. 👍
I just simply love Devin
HEAVY DEVY!!!!!
I always like a good hook and feeling
Something memorable
David Gilmore wasn’t the fastest but he had so much emotion and feeling in his playing for example. Praying 🙏🏻 for Jason. I have old guitar magazines with him from the 80s still
fuck yes devin.
this was awesome.
Devin got the coolest looking guitars
It would be if it didn't remind me of the alphabet people
@@Stringer13ell man why do you even care, rainbow shit's been around forever and looks sick if done well, which it is.
@@dbeast03 I care that youre a five headed spackerly hobgoblin
Watching this has me reeeeally wanting to go get my guitar and play! I need a new cable and probably could use some new strings, but this has really put me in the mood! I'm not a great guitarist by any measure, but I do love playing. I just...haven't for a while.
J'adore Devin !!!
What a couple of awesome humans. Mind-blowingly talented, but even better people.
One of the best soloist for when u need your sould touched by a guitar.
"Pinky Is Optional" is a great song title for an instrumental
Peavy did a real number on customers ordering the 7 string baritone devy signature... some are still waiting for it to this day lol
Sick 👍❤️
Man devys tone is sick
Devin townsend the dude
Devin makes me proud to be Canadian! He's so under-rated here though, it's criminal. Love the man!
I understand the feeling, angra is better known in japan than in brazil :(
God, this interaction between heavy devvy and Herman Li is fucking awesome.
Admittedly, I'm not a huge fan of Dragonforce, but just hearing this back and forth makes me want to revisit Dragonforce's early material.
Should really get Luca Turilli on the show.
People praise passion and warfare no doubt amazing . But fire garden is my favourite.great SONGS on it my fave.
Devin is the man
SO TRUE, the plugin list can get overwhelming.
Devin is GOD 👌
Love Devy. That little bit of riffing at 14:40 was bad a**. Maybe I’ll go back to open C tuning. 😂
Heavy Devy!
