100 %
@@bretkindell6887 saw him first time with the range in 1988 and I cannot agree with you more
How Sad !
This is all that Virginia can come up with!
How long has it been?
Old !
No wonder the camera keeps showing the young buck on guitar!😮

Not many people write a song that makes generations of people happy. What a blessing.
Awesome 👌 survivor of a stroke. Was a well known military and Specialist Nurse . I am disabled veteran now lost friends and Family

Not sure about 'happy' so much as affirmed and supported
@@DeliquescentinsightI was about to roll my eyes at a ‘negative’ comment, but then , yep nailed it I think.
@@Deliquescentinsight Personally makes me happy to see him play it - not the other two - but I don’t get the same feeling when I just hear it. So maybe for me it’s more about the crowd reaction (whatever they’re feeling). I love seeing a huge crowd reacting positively to a performance - like being in a theatre for Auntie Mame, or the “ you know how to whistle” scene in “To Have and Have Not.”
Bruce Hornsby is a national treasure and he should be protected at all costs.
Take away Trump's secret service detail and put it on Bruce. That would actually be a great idea.
Bubble wrap his ass
Just like some other selected groups of Americans
He is... Got to see him a few times when Brent died OMG
Bruce Seeeuuucks! One hit wonder!
The level of respect for Bruce Hornsby - both from the band and the audience - brought tears to my eyes. And, of course, he delivered. Hornsby is a treasure.
Cry me a river
@rickpope4545 bruh what
Never heard of the band but loved so much the respect they paid to the legendary pianist, songwriter and singer! And what a rendition of the classic! Already signed up this channel!
One of the most elegant, masterfully constructed and delivered songs of an era! Timeless. Thank you Bruce!
Has Ben !
How amazing is this? I gotta get into this band now because Bruce Hornsby is on stage. I saw Bruce live at an outdoor concert in Tulsa, Oklahoma during the 80’s and he came out early and started throwing hoops with a basketball and just hung out with crowd. Totally awesome dude ❤
@@HikeColorado
Take a hike !
@@patrickmulligan7994you can't even spell, lol
Is NO one gonna call this band GOOSE HORNSBY??? BECAUSE I AM!
LOL
May the Pun shine forever! Love it
🤣
Giggles😘
🥰Love it.. 👍
I’m dumbstruck. This instantly makes my list of top 20 live performances, ever. I grew up with Bruce Hornsby and the Range. The vibe here with Goose & Co. is off the chain. When you can take a classic like “The Way It Is” and give it new juice without changing its brilliance, but adding to it….that’s some musical magic right there. My god this is amazing.
Bruce Hornsby and the noise makers that's Bruce like I've never heard before.

Sorry that was my two years old babygirl. She liked it
Your Top 20 please
Wow, Bruce showing up was pretty spectacular . I remember Bruce jumping into the piano seat after Brent passed away , those 90 and 91 dead shows were pretty sweet. Hornsby pushed Jerry forward.
You should check out his original music. Man is a legend in his own right without the dead.
@@nicholasrichardson3778 I’m familiar with his material. I saw him many times at venues in New York. The audience members would throw requests at Bruce and he would play them . The cover of the Elton John tune “ madman across the water” is pretty impressive.
Last time I was at Hampton was a Brent show late 80s. Bittersweet return. Thank you Goose & Bruce ✌️
My favorite era right behind Brent's era! I saw Bruce in Dallas in a tiny place about 95-96 or so - such a great show. I taped it but it's been lost in a move.
And heard him.say in an interview the other day: that he still plays improvisationally...goin to see him next month
can't wait
I worked stage security last night for Goosemas I enjoyed the music that was my first time seeing them.
well done!!
welcome aboard
I think I saw you bopping around to the music if you were standing in front of the stage! Loved seeing that and hope you join the flock!
You guys had the BEST security crew I have encountered at a show in the past 5 years. On behalf of *everyone* I spoke with, KUDOS👊 Thank you! For a real good time! 🦆
Thanks for being a great dude we need more like you nice job last night
When I was 16 years old (1988), I was in a student house in Southampton, and I played "The Way It Is" on the upright piano that was in the house. The owner had me play it for 2 hours slowly until she transcribed the entire sheet music. There was no internet back then. What a wonderful song and what a great interpretation by Bruce and Goose. Congratulations.
The arrangement and production of this rendition is amazeballs! I was sixteen in 1986 and owned a copy of The Way It Is on tape, which I listened to on my Sony Walkman. The album sounded great then and it still sounds great now. Quality music stands the test of time.
Bruce 'n Goose! I like that name! Cool. They should do a side thing! I'd go to that for sure! Bruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuce 'n Goooooooooooooooooose! ✌️
EDIT:To be totally honest, this is my first time listening to Goose and it only took about 45 seconds before I was dancing alone in my living room like I was there! Fkn awesome!! I think I'll be listening to a hell of a lot more from here on in! ❤😂🕺💃🕺🏃➡️🕺.
Bruce doesn’t play the piano, he paints it in vivid colours changing the palette when the feeling takes him. Wonderful artist playing with colour… love u man x
I definitely saw him playing the piano though ... ?
Bruce is a legend,what a song for the ages. My 6 and 8 year old love this song. Keep unifying the people Bruce. We love you
I’ve literally never heard of this band until this song popped up in my suggestions. Amazing. Been watching their stuff all day. New fan here!
have fun buddy
They are amazing!
Me either! And look at this stage setup?
exact same right here!
You should go to a show - get Goosed!
That song brings me right back to being a 13 year old boy in 1986. What an insanely beautiful melody.
I got Goosebumps... Hornsby is a master of his craft. Incredible to see how he pushes the band during the jam section.
I first heard this song in 1986. I was driving along, it came on, and I immediately pulled over, found a phone booth, and called the radio station. I asked, "Who is this?!" Have been a fan ever since. I met him back stage at a concert not long after. Fellow Virginian. Love him and what he has shared with me.
Who didn't hear it in 1986? Lol we heard it every day on the radio 📻
My favorite piano player! So good to see him playing again!! Thanks Bruce for sharing your beautiful gift with us. You brought us so much joy!!!
Me too he seems so calming always like him !
Top 5 for me - Wakeman, Lord, Sir Elton, Robert Lamm....
It's so cool that they post all these gigs in such great quality
It's Epic and mind-blowing. To the moon. Givers gain at work. So generous and I just love the whole crew.
Yes, the sound quality is stunning.
This band just continues to impress me very time i listen! Keep it up boys! And thank you to Mr. Hornsby. What a legend.
I was just thinking the same thing.
thats what a REAL musician looks and sounds like, thx for the memories Bruce
playing with frickin Hornsby. Life is good for Goose. much love guys.
I love the look the drummer gives when he's nodded to start, the entire thing is just magical!
You can see him shake his head in disbelief as the camera pans away.
@@RoyChartier yes sir!
Did Ben know he was leaving at this point?
I saw him with the Dead in the early 90’s. So glad Goose honours him too!
Bro, this is exactly what i always hoped would happen with the boys playing this song. Gooooooooose + Bruuuuuuuuuce 🎉 what a time to be alive. These guys really do bring that song life and beauty and thought, just as it was always meant ro be when Bruce played it over his long and wonderful career. This is the collaboration everyone could benefit from having heard. "The way it is" will absolutely never die or not be relevant. Its a pillar in the community of meaningful music , and transformative music. All these miles later and this song still travels me to uncharted territories of my human mind. Its an awakening every time i hear it honestly.
Peter was so pumped to get to see Bruce Horsby play right in front of them. What a great two night run. Just brilliant.
So much so he awkwardly stood over his shoulder for a few minutes
@@kevinmorrissey3351 adorably awkwardly 🥰
I loved that part. All the Geese 😅 were thrilled to share that stage with Hornsby. They just could barely take it in, gawky smiles from ear to ear. And the crowd loved him too. As for the keyboard player was beside himself happy to watch that intro over Bruce's own shoulder. This song makes me deliriously hap so I understand. The solos are exhilarating! I was so glad Tupac sampled it and this is also pretty brilliant....keep these songs alive! I like how they worked guitar into this piano heavy song here. And the bass is really good too. Now I need to get into the goose rabbit hole. I guess that would make it a goose hole. I don't think I have heard of you before. But will be!
Yea that made me uncomfortable watching Peter stand over Bruce. And claustrophobic. He should have stepped out of the piano pit and gave way completely to Bruce.
I was there last night I didn’t know much about Goose but it was a very good concert, Goose is a world class band with musicians that could play with anyone glad I took the time to go experience them .
Go see Phish!
I havent seen them but I know a lot about them . my daughter was a dead head , Phish and all the rest of those cult bands and she spent a lot of thme at the mother ship taking in all of those concerts , I was more of a 70's rocker with Hendrix ,FZ , Trapeze , the Winters , santana , Nitzinger Zep to name a few . @@Throwawayjim119
How about you go and shut up. Let him saying something nice about Goose. You will be fine@@Throwawayjim119
@@Throwawayjim119Phish is great too but don't don't try and steal from Gooses vibes
@@562mjohnson
1) both can exist and be great. I’ve seen both over 15 times and adore them. Phish more like 30x
2) people who like goose for the fact that they “could play with anyone” would probably dig phish too
Not saying to renounce goose, just explore the band that influenced them 🤷🏻♂️
Hard to imagine a more perfect 10 minutes of music.
Who are these Goose guys? Never heard of them. Awesome performance from everyone!
GOOSE are a Belgian electro rock band from Connecticut
The band's formation dates back ten years
So this means alot to me in several ways. Needed these happy tears. Thanks Bruce, been seeing you since the mid 90s killllling it.
Nobody can compete with Bruce Hornsby.
Thank you everyone for the kind words and likes we enjoyed having everyone there last night and the music was fun.
Been a fan of Bruce since this song came out when i was a kid
This song seemed so deep honest and set apart from all the other stuff on mtv or fm radio at the time
I was too small to understand racism civil rights or homelessness
But understood the concept of compassion
This song likely was yhe first time i began to ponder those things ....
All the best to Bruce ❤
Pretty priceless watching Peter watch Bruce fiddle with the opening chords at around 2:05... here you've got one of the guys who probably first inspired you to pick up the instrument playing his greatest song right in front of you at your show. Chills!
And on your rig!
@@davefleisch not to mention The Way It Is was in their set list for the breakout 2019 Peach Fest show 🥲
As a Canadian I feel this shall declare thus Goose Hornsby and Thee Range ❤
Growing up in Hampton it was always a treat to see Bruce when he played a local gig.
I just bawled my eyes out over watching this because it’s that beautiful and fantastic! Feelings of joy and happiness for @Goose at rising to such a level that they can recreate a masterpiece with a true legend @brucehornsby.
Thank you Goose for sharing and giving fans like me such a wonderful gift. ❤
It really is ♡
Watched my macho husband burst into tears at this. We did not have this on our bingo card lol
Both nights were chock full of unexpectedness. 🔥🔥🔥
I got pretty choked up too, so awsome
I met Bruce about 1993, truly one of the nicest people I have ever met!
The greatest latest music find on UA-cam. Fantastic song performed by original musician together with positive very talented newcomers. Feels like one of them Glastonbury nights when you discover Arcade Fire at their very best.
I haven’t come across another percussive piano riff as iconic as this since Hornsby scaled the charts with this song way back when. Heck, there hasn’t even been any, let alone iconic.
The moment you touch a piano it instantly brings me back to 1988 and the wonderful times in my life then. You own that Bruce. You are a legend.
🫵🏼🌎🎶🫶🏼
Amazing performance with Bruce. Those Goose boys made my day.
Hampton & the Tidewater of Virginia is Bruce Hornsby’s hometown haunt.. It is natural for him to sit-in here…. I agree with other old heads on this next point. It’s nice to see Mr. Hornsby performing again from The Mothership.. (over 30 years…)
I will never forget this moment. Thanks Goose and Bruce. ❤
This is so fire. Goose is really cementing themselves in this scene and the sky is the limit.
This was amazing, you guys should have some fun with into the mystic next!
This song always reminds me of the era 1986-7 when i was in mid 20’s … in particular my mate the late Jack Targett. 🙏😍
Bruce's intro was amazing. Piano was the one instrument I took lessons for for around a year when I was a kid and I never got anywhere close to Bruce or Peter's skill level but Bruce and now Peter still inspire the heck out of me whenever I dust off the old keyboard and throw a little number together.
I have just discovered, and heard, and fallen in love with this band. What an incredible collaboration this is. You can hear SO MUCH of Bruce's genius here - lyrically, melodically -- and SO MUCH of it is that you can tell this was not "well-rehearsed"--it's just a bunch of hugely talented people who know the song well enough that Bruce can be as inventive as he wants (and he is SO inventive as a jazz-crossover artist), and the whole group just jams out. The EXPLORATION you get here is so incredibly exciting for me as a musician, and you can see that they're playing for each other's enjoyment as much as for the audience.
The way the singers find themselves harmonizing toward the end on a song that natively had no vocal harmony on the original record is just one more place that they've breathed new life into this song.
That, and I absolutely LOVE how much of a frustrating tease Bruce is at the beginning of the song. His little improvisations inch slowly, slowly, toward what sounds like it might be the opening riff to what's probably the ONLY Bruce Hornsby & the Range song this crowd knows. Then right as he's about to hit the opening riff he backs off into unfamiliar territory again, then whinds his way back up, then lets the excitement and familiarity dissipate. When he finally hits the song proper it's just so incredibly satisfying. When the drummer comes in with a drum part that is so instantly recognizable, it's a really nice touch to give him the first definitively identifiable part of the song. It's in some ways the most generic drumbeat possible, the least exciting part of the whole song, and yet they give him the kick-off just so that every single person in this band gets the chance to shine on this incredible version.
This is what I wish music still sounded like on the radio. This is the real deal, and if more people made and played and paid for music like this, I might still be making ,more of it myself.
Got to catch a live show at the next opportunity. Just pure happy start to finish.
This is what I live for, all these amazing musicians keep it going...
Lifted my spirits this did after Asad day
I would dissolve into floods of tears when I recognized the intro here.
Love this!!!! Thanks! Bruce's piano work is something I can never get enough of. Much appreciated.
What a legend
E P I C !!! As a keyboardist, I can't say enough wonderful things about Bruce's piano playing and composition skills -- master musician/composer! But, you ALL killed on this song! 🤜🤛
I have listened to Bruce for years and I have been a Goose fan since I saw them on CBS Saturday Morning. I would love to hear them perform Across The River! Love it!
I've loved Bruce since my high school days in the mid/late 80s, plus seeing him almost nightly during my 5+ years on Dead tour overlapped with him helping out after Brent passed. Bruce really helped to keep the inspiration flowing when he played with Jerry & the boys. I'll never forget Bruce's inspiration that produced the Scarlet -> Victim -> Fire at Shoreline '91... what a freakin' legend!! Goose rocks!!
Listening to the crowds' reaction throughout this performance says it all! 🙌
Bruce Hornsby is God's musical gift to us!
I'm so excited to see GOOSE in June 2024!!!
The mothership never disappoints. ❤❤❤
Best Venue on the East Coast to catch legendary sets.
I was there, first time getting goosed! OMG 🪿
Goosemas X was my first and second Goose Shows! I loved every minute of it. Best 2 nights of pure joy!
damn vibes are crazy here, also so cool seeing so few phones in the crowd, people just taking it in for once.
Merry Goosemas, everyone! Thank you, Bruce Hornsby - been listening to you for a long time, my friend.
❤ Bruce Dios te bendiga por hacer música tan linnnda.Y tus vídeos reflejaban lo sencillo y lo bello de la vida.Sin ser ofensivo o escandaloso.Dios fe guarde por siempre.GRACIAS❤❤❤❤😇😇😇🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Oh man this is incredible!
Goose i love you im 59.
Love to all
Music xxxx
When my band covers this tune it’s the best experience ever. The audience always comes alive. Every time.. ❤
Might be my favorite mothership run ever on account of the Bruce cameo!!! VA baby!!!!
If this doesn't make your day better, I don't know what can. BRUUUUUUUUUUUCE
Legends and young legends are learning from each other! It's always an exchange and it is good for the music!°
I know its hard to mend 1986 with 2023. But, they are the Greats, touching eachother thru the timespan. Its Holy. Merry Christmas 2023 and NewYesrs
Everything he has written can be classified as an epic composition. His lyrics convey storylines of our lives and experiences.
Was there with my son when Bruce came out, wow, such a great show and moment....
Damn that was sweet!
That's how magic is made! Just a phenomenal job all around. The Jazz is still strong with Bruce
My FB grateful dead got me here. They love goose. Never heard of them. They're awesome!!!!
Goose has officially taken over!!
Rick is such a masterful guitarist. The way he transitions from rhythm to lead is mind blowing
My daughter introduced me to Goose about a month ago and it's been good for my soul. I'm a huge Allman Bro fan and Goose brings back so many great memories of them. And as others have said Bruce is a National Treasure
Such a great song. Bruce is a master of the keyboard. 🎹🎼🎵🎶🎸
Magic takes me back 40 years I think happy memories
Such a great song! Great lyrics and still so relevant. ❤❤❤
Brings tears of joy to my eyes 😊
Incredible, what an honor!
Rehearsal must have been amazing!! 👍
What a wonderful performance! Goose is so gracious and respectful to all. Bruce is a legend to all us old deadheads. Thanks.
@@jfly2249 Amen to that! 🐻
A bunch of them were at the airport yesterday waiting for their flights and they were probably the most gracious band I've ever seen in that situation. Genuinely just thankful for all the love. It was cool to see. What a weekend! Lucky to have experienced it ❤️
Estupenda música y gran músico Bruce Hornsby.
Hometown boy makes good! Love his writing style. Whenever one of his songs came on you couldn’t help but smile.
This song is probably one of the best of the 80's. The work of the light designer at 8h10 is just so beautiful.
Wow. I know Bruce Hornsby from back in the day. My first introduction to Goose!
Incredible!! Thank you so much guys! What a band and of course what can I say about Bruce Hornsby? What a legend!
Amazing.......the happiness in the musicians as they listened and then he keys the drums in........fantastic!
Wow. Bruce on another plane. And Goose.
Can't get enough of this! So many smiles, so much groove... that's just the way it is...
I was just out of college in 1990 when i first heard this and instantly became a lifelong fan of Bruce Hornsby, just can't forget his forever laysting music ❤, The Way it Is, Guess She is out there somewhere, and the list goes on, love him forever...
That's just a beautiful moment, as the whole band just sits quietly and watches him play the intro--full of wonder, admiration, and appreciation.
You have to love for these guys that the pantheon, all the old guard, are coming out to play with them.
OMG, this is what hooked me on Goose (Peach Fest version). Hornsby is off the hook, thx!
Bruce can really tickle the ivories
I love how interested, frenetic and admiring the keyboarder of Goose is lookin' on Bruce' magic spider fingers! Super!
Peace and love stop all war ✌✌✌✌🎵🎵🎵🎶🎶🎶🎸
