When Someone Requests Pink Floyd in Nashville 

Live Awesomeness...

Get your ass to the UK mate, phenomenal.

Where in Tampa, Y-bor?

M

Remember when you were young (excuse the pun) and you'd have moments of wide eyed astonishment and that buzz that accompanied it? I just had that. Wonderful. The only thing I play is...ahem...with myself. But I digress.

This is well better then the original. No editing, just jamming it. Wtf. I am no musician, but this is incredible man. Wow, just wow. I can feel his soul man. Thanks for the upload DOVYDAS. Saw this by accident.

Mad respect

Your right..

@KomodoDragon I'm confused as to whether you like what this guy is doing or not?

I can’t play any instrument, except my own whistle, but i clearly can understand the effort in making good music or recognize a musically gifted person. It’s like any art form.. you don’t have to be able to recreate it, to understand the level of difficulty

Been listening to Floyd for over forty years and this was a nice take on one of their classics.

50 years of loving the Floyd, and seeing them in 1972, I truly appreciate the translation he did. Nice take!

Outstanding. Loved it. And not a fuckin mask in sight.... ✌✊

Curious....would a mandolin version hurt your ears?

I too expected to hear close to original as it could using looping. The speed of the guitar is not my cup of tea which is why I love Gilmour so much. However, this is not a performance by Floyd, this is a talented improv cover of a Floyd song. A cover isn't note for note, it is a musicians interpretation of a piece and this was a fantastic display of talent and emotional interpretation.

It's in Nashville,I think I saw 2 guys w a axe,go there,many clubs,but yes he is good,but when there are really really good players down there,I'm curious why he is not in a band.

No apologies needed.

IT’s Nashville, where people write Country Pop Rap songs and have someone else sing the song and we are to think they are a Country music star.

Extra.jo volt.

I know right ! Maybe it’s Nashville and they’re used to hearing live music on the streets but still. Give the man his props. SMH

He owned it which is what a decent cover should be. Otherwise, ya keep the original.

@@Artemetra You got that right

Look on RU-vid at METAL TEENS HEARING PINK FLOYD

Glad you said Brick.

You could just have as easily said "pricks in the mall," because they wouldn't let a legendary song interrupt their shopping experience.

Got that right

@@dorseyblack9833 you couldn't express it better 😅😂🤣

Exactly

You are not kidding!! This dude rocked the sh$t out of it! How could you not stop to appreciate that?!

Because so many have become that Brick In THe Wall. I have been watching this guy on You Tube the last few days and subbed to his channel as he is bloody brilliant but, like you say, so many people just wander by, even looking at him, some with a measure of disdain. The same type of people who only watch the top 10 TV shows in the charts and listen to nothing but the most popular mass produced music as that is what they are told to watch and listen to. A whole galaxy of other brilliance is blinding them but they can not see through the fog that has clouded their minds. I am 60 and discovering new music every week. The latest fav is a German band called Sea Surfer with a song called "Dragon Song" which is simply superb. Slowdive is also worth a listen, especially "Golden Hair". Both bands come under the genre known as Shoegaze, Slowdive basically inventing it.

Most people are brain dead.

Seriously, right? Don't get it.

Well a lot of those people have no idea who Pink Floyd is, let alone David Gilmour.... He did a fantastic job....

Hello AnieA. How are you doing today?

thanks for your love and support I'm so happy to have a great fan like you

They're all teachers...woke ones

Absolutely, is there only 3 people in Nashville that understood what was happening there???

My thoughts exactly!!

@@musetycablues Just watched your guy and sorry I don't agree. He may be talented but you can't compare the two. The guy in nashville was out there on the street doing his own thing not in a huge theatre with all the p.a. and music technicians behind him. Each to their own though.

@@musetycablues why must people compare? Each to his own ability should you judge.

truest words i heard today

Talent? Yeah, not like he actually put his mind to it and practised,

Tips! Please tip him if you like his performance.

That's right on point JTB Mag. For him to see a couple of smiling faces digging what he's doing.....life is good right there. Love that.

Precisely, my friend 🤘

Bullshit. This is why musicians struggle to survive. If I play I expect to be paid. Period.

I was clapping after watching this video!✌

Same. And then feed his tip jar (or guitar case)!

Cuz some people gotta be somewhere man

My ass would be right next to you Larissa... nowhere to go but there!

They have plans and lives to live my guy. Why is this comment on every video? They owe Dovy nothing, although I would personally enjoy it myself.

Exactly what I was thinking. This guy is damn good!!!

Green - not even a tip or any applause !!!

Amazing how so many people are stuck in there own little world, that they can’t even Feel the music and recognize this guys unique talent enough to stop for a couple minutes to experience such talent.

Good buddy of mine lives a few blocks away from where he was playing on 2nd street. I go to downtown Nashville to visit my buddy- play golf and head out at night to the downtown area. As a bass player/ Musician- not taking away from the players playing in the bars and clubs- everything to me seem very cookie cutter, very similar cover song setlist, playing the songs as close to the record as possible, then the lead singer walks around with a bucket, and shows you a list of songs and for $20 they will play the song you want to hear on that list. My ears and my eyes and my soul does not feel that emotion from all the bands I have seen down town NSH (very few) as DØVYDAS playing is. This guy is a true musician because he can take songs and make it his own because he knows how to play with Harmony by means taking the songs Chords ( I, IV, VII)- know what modes ( Dorian, Phrygian, etc..) and scales( Pentatonic/Pentatonic minor) etc... to use in his playing within the song., while playing with passion for the love of his instrument. This dude is a special player, and yes- people should stop and take a musician like this in the moment and be open to more than what they need to do.

@@genebassman Great reply. If you’re a musician or just a big music fan, most are gonna know the difference if it’s coming from the heart and just plain great vs someone just going through the motions for that $20 bill. This guy always seems like he’s enjoying himself while doing his thing, you could tell he just loves doing it. The thing is these people are in Nashville, known for its music and the stellar musicians that are there. Why they weren’t stopping still boggles my mind with this.

@@nhwhitetail4130 Tourists don't stop. Your town is full of tourist all day long. Answer your question?

Yes, Sir! He builds it like a friggin WALL!!!

A positive quote to immortilize and an excellent tagline for my morning coffee cup!

"Some Assembly Required"

1 million subs.

No.

same joke all around

No

Im in but how

He’s my inspiration, I’m a fan of all those genres and play them each separately on guitar. The way he fuses them together it’s like a Michelin star meal

Yes exactly the same for me. Random can give very good surprises ☀️

Most of them don`t run for fame. Just playing for their soul, not for that penny

Try to put it together!!!

@@scottrittenhouse3131 it’s called a rendition . Show us what you got …

Excellent

Nice Idea..!!

What happens when you pass the return of christ and don't recognize him?

(Pink Floyd Tragic warning) ...'Part Two'.

Another Brick In The Wall, played In Front Of A Brick Wall. Many wow!

Stone

Mine too! ❤️

That's well played, great !!!!! Thanks

Hello Lisa how are you doing

thanks for your love and support I'm so happy to have a great fan like you

Hello K Mitchum how are you doing today

thanks for your love and support I'm so happy to have a great fan like you

He's playing on a platform of millions lol

He is! It's just that his thousands aren't all at once and they don't always know they're part of his audience

He is awesome

You are right and he would get back from the audience what he deserves, - not talking about money

In his head I'm sure he is everytime

Maybe they have places to be on time

Awesome, phew!

NPC's

Probably because it's edited and they heard something else.

It's Nashville. They are so used to the music scene that they hardly wince even in the presence of a musical sage. There's a reason why he draws such a crowd in Florida, or anywhere else he goes. Musical capital of the world, not so much. It's not for lack of talent... he's truly amazing in every respect... it's just the location.

Only 100 times better?

I 100% agree with your comment. This guy is a genius!

What a talent!! The best

Not always. And the fact this guy is "looping" I don't see the difference between him and the aforementioned "schlock."

@@michaelelliott1212 To be fair, I don't expect people would be hanging around long enough to enjoy the music if the guy had four pairs of arms...

3.7 million have stopped to listen to it now! ;)

Check out thedooo

@@Tanks_In_Space I was complementing him, jackass.

That was awesome. Full respect from the UK

Zombies, they're everywhere. Lol

I know I think Michael is right

Agreed. Tucked-in-shirt-man at 4;26 appears to be trying to escape. Probably something about a swollen prostate, or being late for four o'clock pudding

They're comfortably numb

LOL! yeah, that guy asking for some pink floyd is 3rd all-time pussy hound in Nashville history, talk about greatness...

Not even the chap who requested it!! Thought that was a bit rich!!

@@helencheadle5285 I could tell from the haircut, wife beater, and shitty tattoo that he wouldn’t.

All just a bunch of broke ass turds

Not even a polite applause !!

He doesnt need a tip! The smile on the ppls face pays him well! What an artist

Capitol of the world? Sure ask Pink floyd Dire straits Beatles Oasis Duran duran Led zeppelin Queen Dire straits The police Genesis Phil Collins Cliff Richard And many many many more! GREETINGS FROM MUSIC CAPITAL OF THE WORLD LONDON/UK🇬🇧

@@naughtyboy9044 Operative word is "Country." Cheers!

@@wrwalz sure mate thanks respect...Cheers🍺🍺🍺

He made this iconic song his own. He stamped it indelibly.

If you think this is unusual in Nashville, it's only because you've never lived in Nashville

🤘

Take me with you - Music is life

Watched it again same honest

This is

Welcome from across the pond😊

Don’t miss Nashville downtown. Take my advice.

Susan have a look on RU-vid at METAL TEENS HEARING PINK FLOYD

On glue clearly

You're high or deaf

humility?

@@ManiacMane777 yes he is humble. Not cocky or over confident but has that rare quality of humility. He shows modesty and admits he's not heard of many of the requests that pour in. But he says he'll try. He's just brilliant

They insipid stupid mopey Wall crap has been played to death by now. "Duh how can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat,"

I once saw a cover band called Blue Floyd play some songs in different key than how they were written. I think it made some overplayed songs sound really refreshing.

"Marlboro" I oughta know...I never left the house without a full pack for over 20 years. Don't miss that a bit.

I literally lived and played On the street it took me long time to do it after a piece of fame in king kane!!! We got 10 stars out of 5 never happent since Write the band name and ryg then ulvetimen youl see me singing like a MF young Soul 👊💥🥴🤣🥁💯🙏

The overhand cig ripping tells you a lot about a man

@@madsrasmussen7545 I found your video with songs "Moonlight" & "What you gonna do". That was funky man...the band was very lucky to have you! Everyone's story has highs & lows but it's easy to see you are are a a true survivor. You're obviously way too talented to let a rough patch in the road take you down. Glad you're still around and living large.

the guy needs his nicotine fix. LOL

Exactly..sad but true

Why should he pay anything? You are a total idiot. Song was basically butchered.

Maybe he was broke

Maybe he was broke. Dovy asked him if he had a request. Him stopping and enjoying it is the best gift of all. Dovy doesn't expect tips so neither should his fangirls.

@@SixStringSlinger1 How odd that you think talent is unworthy of reward. Do you think musicians survive on exposure?

Or, for that matter, a tip from whomever did the filming.

Agreed 💯, i feel were all about to get trolled 😂😀 what an musician

Maybe if he wore a cowboy hat he would get a tiny bit of attention. This guy is terrific.

Nice usage of the word plebs by the way

I guess not everyone’s a Floyd fan or have the time to stop, stand & listen to him..

@@tamarawiggall4457 Then you're a pleb too Tamara....Just kidding, but anyone and everyone in the world should have a spare 5 mins for this kid and Pink Floyd - Been listening to The Floyd since I was 14 years old which is 35 years! half my tattoo's are Floyd based!
