To see Mike Dawes get soooooo hyped about Tyler's bend/tap/bend thing during All along the Watchtower was the most wholesome thing. Absolutely made my day!
We need more podcasts for musicians like this. Every musician podcast now seems to just get in to stories of gigs or whatever else. No one hardly plays, jams, or gets in to the nerdy musical nitty gritty on music podcasts. Thank you for this. I hope you have more guest in this format.
Mike Dawes is so great to listen to, both musically and vocally. I love how he spends so much time on details. I listen to his songs at work all the time
Saw mike daws when he was on tour with ichika (he also gave signed merch away!) felt like i was at a comedy show with an amazing guitar backing track. 11/10 would go again
Mike's 4 guitar pickups really add to the fullness of his sound. Especially the robust sound of his open chords. I am pleased to find that he is fully cognizant of the possible noise his complex setup can produce. Like the "zing" sound. In many interviews, the guitarists leave their voice microphone on while they play, so extra noises like the zing are more pronounced, but odd for those of us who are only familiar with just the internal pickups from their recordings.
oh my goodness. Dancing in a burning room was absolutely gorgeous. He is amazing. I do like to hear him playing with space due to playing with someone else. I think he enjoys it to, feeding off the other guy
Excellent interview, thanks. Mike takes the acoustic guitar to a whole new and otherworldly level. Made me realize just how much more there is for me to learn. I feel like I've been sent back to kindergarten acoustic guitar class.
Tyler, your talent has always been undeniable, but you can tell when you're interviewing someone that you have become very comfortable doing so. Glad that Mike had the time to spare and share with you. Take care!
A very quick and brief name drop of Michael Hedges. Funny how as I listened to Dawes explain some processes, and I instantly thought of Hedges - then he drops the name. Simply amazing that Hedges has been gone for 27 years, yet still has influence on today's most cutting edge and creative musicians. Hedges would have been 70 this year. He would be absolutely blown away with Dawes' improvements and ideas. Will definitely be checking out some Galactic Acid. Thanks Tyler ♥
That last jam was the prettiest thing I’ve heard in a long time and I just listened to A Sad Cartoon by Loathe a little bit ago. Yall killed it, being able to play with someone else like that is the main goal and hearing people make stuff like that on the fly really motivates me
Everyone needs to Google Mike's cover of "Someone I used to know". Absolutely mind blowing mastery of the acoustic guitar. The thousands of hours of practice it must have taken...
Holy shit ... Mike mentioning Jon Gomm unlocked a core memory from like 20 years ago XD Jon Gomm, Hey Child. Guitar drifting, smooth solo, great vocals ... and then some random Joe Satriani inspired inspired shredding with the perfect amount of overdrive and effects. If you haven't heard it, or if its been over a decade like it was for myself, GO HAVE A LISTEN!!! Quite literally one of the best tunes ever written/played. Side note ... if you could get Jon Gomm in for an interview that would be amazing. Great content as always Tyler, thanks for keeping the guitar nerds entertained :)
One of the best videos I've watched in a while. This was two mates chatting and jamming, very relaxed and entertaining. Looking forward to seeing Mike in Winchester UK next year.
Love MD. His playing and skills are on the next level. Love to see a collaboration with MD and Nathaniel Murphy from Chicago Music Exchange. Both awesome players.
@@weets69 I also love Nathaniel's playing, whether it's his fingerstyle covers or him playing with a group and shredding it up. He's just a really great player.
Okay, this was one of my favorite Mike Dawes interviews ever! Tyler and Mike jamming together was magical! You guys need to do a project together! BTW Berklee grad 1981 and singer-songwriter here, proud to see Berklee grads doing great things!! Keep up the amazing work Tyler!!
ok at the beginning yall showed the funnest part of dicking around on guitars with your bros: "hey isnt that the same thing as this other song? lets play them both at the same time!"
Saw him live with Tommy Emmanuel last year. Incredible night of guitar music. And a heck of a nice guy, got to talk for a few minutes at the merch table between sets. The live CD is great by the way.
The substance given in this video is unmatched. What a sit down. Mike is so good at simply explaining the process even though the technique is astro physics. The stuff at 19:00 prime example. Such a treat to watch.
This man is such a genius and savant on the acoustic guitar it's insane. Absolute prodigy. Also, your interview video is even better than Rick Beato's, congrats good job.
Mike is such an amazing musician. I love what he brings to the guitar world. The music is very complex just because he is able to do it all himself. Even as a filthy bass player, I can appreciate the technicalities and intricacies of his compositions and covers. To me his music is just ear candy. Thank you both for doing this video. I love hearing the thoughts of musicians I admire and respect. A lot of good take-aways here.
I have exactly the same shirt! Dreaming In A Blue World! 1990 Surfing With The Alien tour! I did a meet'n'greet with Joe on the Shockwave Supernova tour which I took 2nd place in the tour poster contest for! I waited until I was the last guy in line to get my axe signed, I asked Joe "what year?" while pointing at the shirt. He gets this big smile on and tells me the whole story. So Marvel had signed off on the album cover for Surfing, no problem. When they hit the road Marvel issued a cease & desist for the merch, Joe said if they'd paid for the rights it would have busted the tour, so instead they opted to stop selling the red and silver Surfing shirts and go with the next album's title instead, only Flying In A Blue Dream had many working titles and nobody was quite sure which one would end up on the album cover, we know now that they guessed wrong! Great video guys!!! 🔥
I enjoyed all the technical discussions. Very interesting and educational. The thought processes for doing certain things. The jamming definitely was my favorite however. It was so much fun listening and watching you two having fun . It sounded great. I found myself vibing and smiling as you both played. I liked the format. Loose and fun.
I watch all your videos to the end and I’m so glad that I did again. You showed Hendrix. You showed most abundantly Vye in there era of whitesnake. I would be a miss if I didn’t recognize Satriani …. All hail Dawes!!!!!
Saw Mike, playing with Justin Hayward at the Birchmere....VA. He plays in Justin's band doing Moody Blues music. He does his own set as well. Go see him live...incredible player. And...got to talk with him before the show...super nice guy!
If you have an acoustic guitar with a gloss finish, guitar percussion can eventually cause cracks in it (haven't cracked the wood yet though). Very fun to learn, but consider the risks depending on how you value the guitar's finish.
You both need to do a version of All Along the Watchtower in studio and video. WOW!! That was amazing, the mix of the electric with the finger-style acoustic was unreal!! \m/
Edgar Cruz out of Oklahoma city is one of those guys that are the best kept secrets of acoustic guitar. He can play 3 different parts of a song he is unbelievable you need to have him on your show if you never heard of him.
Yeah, he's great -- would love to hear some of his stuff on an electric though. If he's that amazing on acoustic, well, he has to be epic on an electric too.
Those freakishly long fingers! I actually used to think he had extra joints. Is the neck on that acoustic narrower than most, or is it just an illusion created by his unusual hands? He is astonishing!
So fun man, you're the best
Mike I need you to check out Max Willow he will blow your mind
@@degerdihe opened for me last year he’s great :)
@@mikedawesofficial I’m so proud of him ❤️
34:36 hmmm suspicious those chords there... avicii cover coming up?
Actually I feel bad I was mistaken. He has an offer anytime :)
To see Mike Dawes get soooooo hyped about Tyler's bend/tap/bend thing during All along the Watchtower was the most wholesome thing. Absolutely made my day!
Mike Dawes playing "Euclid" is the best thing ever. Literally brought tears to my eyes. Intensely beautiful.

@@doyourownresearch7297 Congrats on coming out. We support you!
There's a theory that using Euclid's mathematical formulas Abraham Lincoln wrote the Gettysburg Address.

❤
i can help with that
What I notice is how comfortable Mike is with playing rhythm. Doesn't "need" to be lead.
Mike Dawes is so great to listen to, both musically and vocally. I love how he spends so much time on details. I listen to his songs at work all the time
Is his guitar's wood being worn away or is it a pick guard to make some of the sounds be makes by taking his fingers on the upper bout? Anyone?
@@EbonyPope it's a scratch plate! Pretty cool
This guy is frickin amazing. The way he has 2 pickups and 2 mics all wound up in one guitar is phenomenal.
He seems to be such a humble down to earth genuine person and an amazing guitarist.
I'd totally buy an album of you 2 just sitting around jammin cause the last 3 minutes of this video was simply amazing! Bravo fellas, Bravo
Saw mike daws when he was on tour with ichika (he also gave signed merch away!) felt like i was at a comedy show with an amazing guitar backing track. 11/10 would go again
London Bush Hall March 27 lesssgo ❤ On Sale like, today I think!
@@mikedawesofficial YESS!! I still got your signed cd on display, cya there! 🫶🏼

Stumped for words in the best way. That's when the goose bumps took over. The two of you bouncing off of each is amazing. (hint, hint)
oh my goodness. Dancing in a burning room was absolutely gorgeous. He is amazing. I do like to hear him playing with space due to playing with someone else. I think he enjoys it to, feeding off the other guy
Tyler, a few more white hairs and you'll be the new Rick Beato!!! 😂 Interview season is upon us.
What about Rick interviewing Tyler interviewing someone else 😂
I fell in love with Mike way back when I heard Boogie Slam. That piece changed my life.
Excellent interview, thanks. Mike takes the acoustic guitar to a whole new and otherworldly level. Made me realize just how much more there is for me to learn. I feel like I've been sent back to kindergarten acoustic guitar class.

So glad you featured this dude. Mike is a beast of a talent. You guys together are a show within a show.
Everyone needs to Google Mike's cover of "Someone I used to know". Absolutely mind blowing mastery of the acoustic guitar. The thousands of hours of practice it must have taken...
Thank you both so much for that short concert. Totally impressive. Bless you both
Thanks for making all these videos, Tyler - It means a lot. And Mike - You are insane man!
Dawes is utterly connected. One must fasten their seatbelt to listen to him.
Loving all the interviews Tyler, this one was great.
This was a lot of fun. Love this format, Tyler.
You both nailed it out of the park for a great episode Great video
That pickup setup on the accoustic guitar just blew my mind. Effects are fun, but using each pickup like he does is amazing!
Holy shit ... Mike mentioning Jon Gomm unlocked a core memory from like 20 years ago XD

Passionflower
@@arsenalfanrichi Passionflower was overplayed in my circle, still a great song, but not my favorite
@@booth403 Yeah, that was how I heard of him, why I mentioned him. It's mad how he's still so unrecognised in truth.
One of the best videos I've watched in a while. This was two mates chatting and jamming, very relaxed and entertaining. Looking forward to seeing Mike in Winchester UK next year.
Just bought the vinyl - thanks for sharing Mike with us. What a talent!
glad to see you're healing up well brother. keep on keepin on.

Mike is not only the best guitarist but just the best overall person in general! ❤🙌
What an amazing guitar player and sees like such a great guy too
Mike is a phenomenal player!!
Hearing Mike openly speak about his processes is incredible. This was your best guest interview jam sp far T.
What a fantastic watch!
when you guys got right into the jamming i was geeking out! Cheers from 🇧🇻Norway🇧🇻
The substance given in this video is unmatched. What a sit down. Mike is so good at simply explaining the process even though the technique is astro physics. The stuff at 19:00 prime example. Such a treat to watch.
Mike's new album Galactic Acid is fantastic. Just listened to it last week.
this sounds amazing. great playing and tones
Mike Dawes brain works on whole different level than us earthlings.
Heck yeah guys!!! That was a great watch
Thank you guys for the pure (and free) guitar lessons I just got!
This man is such a genius and savant on the acoustic guitar it's insane. Absolute prodigy.
Also, your interview video is even better than Rick Beato's, congrats good job.
Never heard of the guy and now he's my favorite guitarist after Tommy Emmanuel. Mike Dawes is a CGP.
Would love to see him and Tommy collab someday.
@@JimDewdGuitarsgood news, we are touring next week together ❤
@@mikedawesofficial Man, I'm so excited, I can't wait to watch you and Tommy. Oslo Nov 15 baby!! So freaking hyped dude!🤩
Go see them together!! They will BLOW YOUR MIND!! And Mike is really fun and the coolest- as you can see here as well!!!🤘🤘🤘
I met Mike while he was touring with Justin. He is amazing!
He`s the Ian Anderson of guitar. What a great player and cool guy.
Far out... you two should release an album of just jamming. Your style and tone perfectly compliments. Amazing.
Mike is awesome. Nice video.

I want another 5 minutes of that All Along the Watchtower jam, holy shit. That felt special.

Great video guys!!! 🔥
Mike is on another level and is most definitely a certified guitar player!!! That last jam was great and Tyler played some very tasty stuff 👌
Mikes sound here is smooth as butter. Such a joy to listen to man
Two of my favourite guitar players! Just phenomenal!! 💓🔥🎸
Wish the interactive session were longer...😢 (Edited after its premature ending 😄)
Is his guitar's wood being worn away or is it a pick guard to make some of the sounds be makes by taking his fingers on the upper bout? Anyone?
Damn i asked to interview him 5 years back but here we are still happy
I enjoyed all the technical discussions. Very interesting and educational. The thought processes for doing certain things.
The jamming definitely was my favorite however. It was so much fun listening and watching you two having fun . It sounded great. I found myself vibing and smiling as you both played. I liked the format. Loose and fun.
Love the way Mike shares what he can do. Inspiring.
I would love to see Jon Gomm in a video with you.
Great listening to two positive, intelligent gents.
Best noodler on the planet. Love your style and sound independent of guest
I watch all your videos to the end and I’m so glad that I did again. You showed Hendrix. You showed most abundantly Vye in there era of whitesnake. I would be a miss if I didn’t recognize Satriani …. All hail Dawes!!!!!
Never heard of him.. but I'm definitely getting that album! Damn!
36:55!! What was that?! Awesome.
When I hear Mikes guitar it feels like I’m in some amazing dream. Such awesome sound in so many ways
Music is truly a win! Video ending was a space flight for my ears. I got goosebumps. Thank you!
That dang harmonic playing is so dreamy. I don’t even know how to attempt that 😂
Mike is really as good as you say and more.
Two guys enjoying themselves on the guitar !! A joy to watch 🙂
Watched to the end. Worth it. Stunning!
Mike is absolutely incredible ❤
Saw Mike, playing with Justin Hayward at the Birchmere....VA. He plays in Justin's band doing Moody Blues music. He does his own set as well. Go see him live...incredible player. And...got to talk with him before the show...super nice guy!
Music is the winner here. Great stuff.
His version of Van Halen’s Jump is incredible.
Amazing improv over watchtower never heard someone take it on that way. Very inspiring
That last jam was sick! Started out sounding like a Bon Iver song then it took off into the stratosphere.
i could just listen to both of you playing all day long!
If you have an acoustic guitar with a gloss finish, guitar percussion can eventually cause cracks in it (haven't cracked the wood yet though). Very fun to learn, but consider the risks depending on how you value the guitar's finish.
Adhesive paper sheets/large stickers.
Brainsugar❤. Tx for having Mike.
Love this guy…
You both need to do a version of All Along the Watchtower in studio and video. WOW!! That was amazing, the mix of the electric with the finger-style acoustic was unreal!! \m/

TIL about the zing. Can't call it anything else now. Great interview and incredible playing!
Mike! Please, come to the Philippines! 🫶🏽🇵🇭
Could've listened to a lot more of that... Thanks lads
More of this please!!!! Brilliant video
Sweet interview! Mike Dawes is probably my favorite guitarist on the planet right now, except maybe Tommy Emmanuel.
They’re fun together!
:o wow, that is crazy but so good... looking foward to seeing more. :)
Please Mike, record Euclid for us. Sounds incredible!
More of this stuff. Really enjoyed it.
Absolutely great video! Thank you!
