Yes, we're aware it needs more cowbell! Congrats in advance to any commenters who don't make cowbell-related comments. :)

Rick Stockhaus It will be mostly solo, but I hope to have a local friend sit in on a few tunes on bass. I’ll also be taking requests. 👍

People just have no idea how hard this is. Play all the notes without screwing up royally. Keep time, play together. Sing together, remember all the words. Keep track of the overall structure of the song and not get lost.

@ryanbuckley5529 2 года назад

I know!😂🤣 I’ve been playing for maybe 12 years, still have trouble singing and playing at the same time! Rock on🤘🤘🤘

@joeymassey2009 2 года назад

@@ryanbuckley5529 I have to practice a song like this so much to get it ready by the time I do have it I’m sick of the song😂

@CreepyCreg 2 года назад

I took really naturally to playing and singing at the same time, but keeping time without a drummer, (and finding a drummer that keeps correct time) has always been tough. Practice practice practice and the songs become second nature. I haven't gigged in years but when i was we could play through our setlist forward backward and shit faced. Repetition is king.

@TheNewAmericanMedia 8 лет назад

One of the coolest songs ever written, and this performance absolutely does it justice. In fact,...this version adds another dimension to a classic. Not an easy feat to accomplish. Kudos.

@chivalryalive 5 лет назад

TheNewAmericanMedia -- I've never heard it on acoustic instruments either... and I have to say those men played it /sang it tremendously well.

@stevencobb2063 3 года назад

5 years later and this comment still holds true. This is a song you seriously can’t not enjoy. From the riffs, to the chorus, to the lyrics. Definitely showing my future kids this song. These guys took the song and honestly.. did the holy mans work. Unbelievable cover.

@lesterrawlins3315 4 года назад

I don't care about the absence of the cowbell. Masse and Hall are excellent. This is best rendition of the Reaper I have heard. A true honor to listen to these guys. Magnificent Music!!!
