Yeh such a great band. And it sucks since they are famous and other famous musicians like memebers of alice and chains and pearl jam respect them and doug is in band with member of korn and lynch mob but they need to be more respected and appreciated by more peeps theyre great
Kings X came out from behind a table to meet me and two of my buds when we went to see them and then attended a meet and greet.One of my buds was in a wheelchair and bald from radiation.Kings X spent xtra time with him and he was over the moon.My buddy lasted 6 months after that and they gave him a priceless memory.They live what they sing about.I saw them three times in Pittsburgh.
My best friend turned me on to this incredible band back in the 80's and we would jam out to them for hours and have a good time. I've been a faithful fan ever since. He has since passed away, but anytime I want to remember him, I can just listen to any King's X song and I'm there. Thank you Dug, Ty and Jerry.
King's X don't need fancy stages where you can barely see them. They don't need Premium tickets for people to stand in the front row. They don't need any of that shit. Only those who saw intimate concerts like this know what I'm talking about. BEST LIVE BAND IN THE WORLD period
Used to be. Last three shows I've seen overt last two years were terrible. Terrible sound emotionless performances. They were always my favorite band. Sad.
Saw them twice this year (Chicago & Dayton).....great sound and energy at both shows....sold out both venues (even tho they were small). Where did you see them?
I was at this show...Rocked the fuckin house. I've seen them 8 times. Only once was I unimpressed with the show. My brother went to 5 shows after this around the midwest and said they were all very good shows.
The song that hooked me on Kings X......My young daughter loved this song and used to ask me to play "Gramma Used To Sing" and when the song was over would say AGAIN! Calling Kings X Underrated is an UNDERSTATEMENT!!!
I had Gretchen on heavy rotation in my car cd player back in the 90s. So glad I looked this up. Brought tears to my eyes. One of the greatest bands ever
Wow, really Luke? Bro, I JUST listened to a live podcast he did thats here on YT and he CLEARLY stated he NEVER practices a solo before recording it, so as to capture the spontaneity of a fresh chance at a new piece. So, sorry to tell you, your post states a non fact friend. Can i humbly ASK (not tell!) you to either edit it or pull it? Its a fast way to keep an untruth from becoming fact, know what i mean? This IS the age of social media . . .
Please.. You got me wrong and by the response you should cool down. Man I got the first album right when it came out and been there ever since so cut the crap if you cant take a joke
An absolute *BEAST* of a song, by one of the all-time greatest bands... Was gutted their European tour was cancelled, and there's still no inkling of when might come over. I'd love to see them live.
King's X is hands down my favorite band. Started listening to them in the late 80's; the other bands I liked at that time I barely listen to anymore (if at all), but King's X is still in heavy rotation for me. Just awesome song writing and musicianship. And Doug is a special soul, Love you brother.
As a guitar player in his 20's that loves groove, heavy rock and funky riffs, i am so stoked to come across a band like this. And they're still doing concerts! Guess who's buying tickets for that
Thank you so much for posting this. Fantastic video and audio quality. King's X is my favorite band of all time and I am sooooo happy that here in 2016 Dug, Ty and Jerry are STILL together as King's X and STILL playing fantastic shows. Seeing Jerry wailing away on the drums after his health scares in recent years brings a HUGE smile to my face. These guys have brought me much happiness as I am sure they've done to many, many people over the years.
Hey let's make this "most underrated band" HIGHLY rated when the new album comes out later this year. They will be touring too. The past is the past. Let's make 2022 the "start" of King's X Appreciation.
Found these guys in the late 80s. I had all but given up on music until then. I’ve seen these guys a few times over the years and they never disappoint. Going to see them again soon with some friends at the Warehouse Live here in Houston.
Oh god,, that last part where Ty played a half fret sharp and was looking at Ty like "Hey, wait a minute, something isn't sounding right. Wait, is it my bass? Man, a string didn't go THAT far south did i . . oh shit, I'm playing in the wrong position, doh!!" Its so cool and so rare to see 3 guys this old, struggling for as long as they have, and still clearly are happy, enjoying each others company and still having alot of fun. Good on you guys, and take to heart what Doug's talking about regarding LIVING that love, not just talking about it on Facebook and shit . . .
Fantastic performance and tone ! Ty back to strat : that's how it should always be. The overall tone is close to the early years and it's a blast to ear the rumble of the bass and this strat tone.
I've seen many bands live in my life time and so far King's X by far is the best I've seen live!] great musicianship,tight,talented,massive wall of great TONE! I've only seen them twice but man,love to see them again...
Man, i was so happy to see these guys still tearing it up. I saw them when they toured with Satch, and Dream Theater back in '02. They were so good live. so good. Stay healthy guys, try and swing by Milwaukee sometime. Thx for the upload Meter.
Definitely one of the most underrated bands from the 90s, with some of the most talented musicians. DP is a monster, great message in the middle so true. Ty is just connected to an entirely different dimension! Great video brother thanks
I've heard of Kings X but this is the first time I've heard them, amazing! I hope they come back to Reggies, seems to be the place for the the great guitar players, I'v e already seen Allan Holdsworth, Paul Gilbert, Greg Howe, Tony MacAlpine, Andy Timmons and more at Reggie's, love that place. Thanks for posting!
Absolutely fucking beautiful! Loved it. Love them. Praying they come to the UK - they pulled out of a gig in Birmingham a year or two back - I was gutted. These lads were and are, SO good. Thanks, Jon, for putting this on YT, I really appreciate it. PT x
Ty Tabor makes it look easy to play with such fluid fiery tasty excellence. It can be done with lots of talent and endless hours of practice, and it isn't easy.
Thanks for sharing this. My favorite band ever, hands down. Unfortunately missed them last time they passed by and hoping I get to see them again. Nothing scheduled in the near future, so this will have to do. Thanks again it means a lot.
3 guys that genuinely love what they do and and genuinely like each other. I played pool with Dug Pinnick at the Nick before their set in Birmingham, Alabama in 2005. Nice guy. Briefly met the others.
Hye Mister,Bass Player....Dig, I've gotta story for you Man... a long time ago in a Galaxy Far away, back in 1987 'er '88 I was attending school at the University of Houston, I was also working there as well at the time, including working on weekend's...well once late Saturday afternoon,very early evening, I was working there at the 'Student Center" and I remember,helping you with The Bands equipment,getting it on to the freight eleveator, I saw you and what you were doing and offered to help. YOU accepted.We spoke,in the elevator,briefly,but I could snese and feel this electric energy coming from you and the band..and I Knew then that you all as a Band "had it" the "it" factor and I remember telling you so,and that you all were gonna REALLY make it. !! I was an active musician ,as well ,at the time,too,by the way. YOU were very gracious and soft spoken 'somber' almost,but I knew you guys were gonna make it,I KNEW IT!! damn if it didnt come to be True in this Life. coz a YEAR later, there was standing room only, especially in Europe!! That night though it was a small, college crowd just diggin your sounds for the evening, it was definitely a 'different' kind of Rock,plus som' som'. As Jimi used ta say "I see that we meet again Dig!" Sing on dude, play on drummer!!
We opened for them when they were the edge and they were a 4 piece. Still have that promo pack. They killed Hendrix MANIC DEPRESSION. I will never forget it been a fan ever since!!

An amazing and resilient band that is still here. Jerry Gaskill went through so much and has come out on the other side. I wish them so much more success. I know they are in the twilight years but you never know. They deserve to be so much bigger..
![Noob To Max With DRAGON REWORK In Blox Fruits [FULL MOVIE]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/LnBMOinoOvA/mqdefault.jpg)
One of the most criminally underrated bands ever!!!
Damn right. Amazing band.
Everything you want in a power trio, groove, solos, three part harmonies.
Yeh such a great band. And it sucks since they are famous and other famous musicians like memebers of alice and chains and pearl jam respect them and doug is in band with member of korn and lynch mob but they need to be more respected and appreciated by more peeps theyre great
Completely agree and Ty Tabor is seriously underrated guitarists ever.
James Davis Show me their rating.
As a band, it torments me how underrated they are. Some of the best riffs and guitar work and harmonies.
Kings X came out from behind a table to meet me and two of my buds when we went to see them and then attended a meet and greet.One of my buds was in a wheelchair and bald from radiation.Kings X spent xtra time with him and he was over the moon.My buddy lasted 6 months after that and they gave him a priceless memory.They live what they sing about.I saw them three times in Pittsburgh.
May he Rock in paradise.
When it’s all said and done, and they finally call it quits, maybe then, people will realize what legends these guys were.
Most underrated band out there! Should have been a lot bigger!!!
They may not have garnered commercial fame, but they have garnered respect.
@MTRoss87 In this case, it applies.
I think they're great as a trio tbh
Jim Rocker Then show me their low rating.
Underrated might be the wrong term...underknown would be more accurate
"You can't get a heavy rock sound out of single coils......" "Hold my beer." -Ty Tabor
I think the same LOL 🤣
“Single coils and a 100% solid state amp.” He’s going completely against the grain.
Right, talk to Jimi, Richie also 😂
@@jazznotes3802 he humbucked the trend
I've seen him play so many different guitars over the decades, yet he always sounds like him. 🤍
Phil X introduced me to this. Fantastic riff. That strat sounds badass
My best friend turned me on to this incredible band back in the 80's and we would jam out to them for hours and have a good time. I've been a faithful fan ever since.

They were opening for ACDC over 20 years ago and that was not a comfortable zone
FeelingShred amazing! Finally just saw them after millions of years late. Saturday April 28th 2018 Agoura ca. Shiw was killer!
That Bass tone from Pinnick hasn't changed in 30 years, it sounds like it breathing.....
Billy Sheehan plugged into it once, said it "sounded like an elephant, lol"
dUg can do no wrong. ✌🏼💜🎼
That's his bi-amped legend. One amp deep, accurate, clean, clear as a bell.
Amp #2 = CHAINSAW.
Add it up, it's just massive.
He is 66 in this concert.
@@palkovacs112 Are U sure?
Ty's tone!!!!.....It's amazing how he gets such a warm sound from that bridge pickup on a strat...
And a solidstate amp😃
Whenever I feel a bit dull and things are getting on top of me I just put this on at full volume. Instant cure!!
The song that hooked me on Kings X......My young daughter loved this song and used to ask me to play "Gramma Used To Sing" and when the song was over would say AGAIN! Calling Kings X Underrated is an UNDERSTATEMENT!!!
Loved these guys since the 80s, so creative, sounding great!!
I had Gretchen on heavy rotation in my car cd player back in the 90s. So glad I looked this up. Brought tears to my eyes. One of the greatest bands ever
Ty Tabor's rhythm playing and timing is mind blowing. The solos leave me brain dead.
T Moody his rhythm is more enchanting to me than his lead.
he seldom improvises he's got a laid back attitude
You were brain-dead before ever watching this vid....!!
Wow, really Luke? Bro, I JUST listened to a live podcast he did thats here on YT and he CLEARLY stated he NEVER practices a solo before recording it, so as to capture the spontaneity of a fresh chance at a new piece.

it's a righteous shame the world doesn't know more about this amazing band! Great,great performance! King's X til I die!
Thanks for the great close-ups of Ty's playing!
loved this band since 1990. just great.
An absolute *BEAST* of a song, by one of the all-time greatest bands...

Still Loving Kings X!!!! Such an incredible band. I've seen them live a few times. This takes me back...Thanks Doug, Ty, and Jerry.
Ty is a bass players guitarist. I wish there were more like him. He makes me want to play the damn thing!
Thank you so much for posting this. Fantastic video and audio quality. King's X is my favorite band of all time and I am sooooo happy that here in 2016 Dug, Ty and Jerry are STILL together as King's X and STILL playing fantastic shows.

My favorite rock song writing band .i was there you guys killed it.Kings x for ever.
Found these guys in the late 80s. I had all but given up on music until then. I’ve seen these guys a few times over the years and they never disappoint. Going to see them again soon with some friends at the Warehouse Live here in Houston.
Music is the language that unites us all!
~amen to that brother . . .
Music speaks when words fail. 🤙🏼
I want to keep rocking into my 60's-70's like these guys. 👏🏼🙌🏼🤘🏼
Oh god,, that last part where Ty played a half fret sharp and was looking at Ty like "Hey, wait a minute, something isn't sounding right. Wait, is it my bass? Man, a string didn't go THAT far south did i . . oh shit, I'm playing in the wrong position, doh!!"

Awesome band . Saw them at the Stone Pony in Asbury. It was great
Fantastic performance and tone ! Ty back to strat : that's how it should always be. The overall tone is close to the early years and it's a blast to ear the rumble of the bass and this strat tone.
i wish he would get out the red Zion Ty Tabor model guitars - love the sound of that one into the mesa boogie rectifier like on Dogman...
This band Rocks like no other !!! Pure Perfection !!! Turn It Up !!!
I've seen many bands live in my life time and so far King's X by far is the best I've seen live!]
great musicianship,tight,talented,massive wall of great TONE! I've only seen them twice but man,love to see them again...
just the very best always were allways will be. a joy to behold.
Man, i was so happy to see these guys still tearing it up. I saw them when they toured with Satch, and Dream Theater back in '02. They were so good live. so good. Stay healthy guys, try and swing by Milwaukee sometime. Thx for the upload Meter.
Now that's the lineup I would have loved to hear.
Powerful!! Love this band so much!
Neil is gone. But these guys live on. Thank you, Ty, Dug and Jerry for still being there.
Best live band. Period.
GOD, I LOVE THESE GUYS - T.Tabor great guitarist, waht tone on those albums...!!!!!!!!!! I saw them at the Ritz in NYC back in 1998.
That music that “Grandma used to sing” about, though... “that great cloud of witnesses...”
Great to see this...I was at this show. 1st time I ever saw them do an acoustic set. Got about 200 excellent photos. I love this band.
When these 3 get together & play it's sheer magic studio and live oh man it's king's X to the 10th power
I remember the first time I saw this video on Mtv a looong time ago. Love this band!
They have always rocked!!!!
I've loved these guys for years
This is the first song I heard by them. Can you imagine how happy I was? Been jamming since. 🤙🏼🎶
OMG........chills........Chills and JOY!! That intro made me happy👍❤️. The whole thing was beautiful.
Thanks for sharing that video! Great band, great song, great audience, great audio and video quality!
Definitely one of the most underrated bands from the 90s, with some of the most talented musicians. DP is a monster, great message in the middle so true. Ty is just connected to an entirely different dimension! Great video brother thanks
"Ty is just connected to an entirely different dimension!"
Bro, you summed it up perfectly.
I haven't seen King's X since 1991 at the Bristol Beer Keller in the UK. They were great then and even better now! I need to see them live again.
I was at that show. Ended with 'Burning Down', I think. Supported by..Mind Funk? Still the most affecting show I've seen.
What a gift!...Thank you so much for sharing!!! ✌ ❤ 🎶 🌎 👏
Watching again!
✌❤🎶
Beautiful and inspiring.
I've heard of Kings X but this is the first time I've heard them, amazing! I hope they come back to Reggies, seems to be the place for the the great guitar players, I'v e already seen Allan Holdsworth, Paul Gilbert, Greg Howe, Tony MacAlpine, Andy Timmons and more at Reggie's, love that place.

EVER!

Ty Tabor often overlooked player, criminally underrated.
Mudder1310 Who underrated him??
No one sounds like Ty. Ty sounds like no other. Genius.
Unbelievable talent.
I really love this banddd!!!
3 guys that genuinely love what they do and and genuinely like each other. I played pool with Dug Pinnick at the Nick before their set in Birmingham, Alabama in 2005. Nice guy. Briefly met the others.
Seeing them July...In NH.....Awesome
Love this band
It's amazing after all these years those 3 dudes still crank it out. With energy and a relevant message. In the 80's that was one heavy bad ass song.
Absolute beasts of rock n roll!!!!
Love this band👊💥
My favorite guitar player of all time.
Brilliant live band,seen them years ago and recently,still great !!
I'm going to see them for the first time tomorrow. I cant wait!

First time I saw them they were called Sneak Preview. 1984.
We opened for them when they were the edge and they were a 4 piece. Still have that promo pack. They killed Hendrix MANIC DEPRESSION. I will never forget it been a fan ever since!!

Still rocking that stage!!!!!!
Love's why we're here.... 💜 u dUg
I just lost love of my life of 38 years. I needed this. 🤙🏼
Saw em at the agora in Cleveland...love em...definitely underappreciated.
I was at this show right in front of dUg! I am even in this video a couple times. First time at 1:25 in the lower left corner! Great show!
I'm green with envy..... 🤙🏼💚
that's nothing byron, i was behind the guy filming this the whole show. lol
So underrated!! They sound amazing!
GREAT BAND! shamefully underrated
Dave Whiting Another idiotic comment.
Love them dearly for more than 30 years
Sister Rosetta Tharpe would be proud her musical legacy lives on.
Ty is a perfect example of how a large part of a guitarist's sound comes from the player vs the guitar / amps
I love these guys! Thanks, Gents for all that you share.
Ty is a monster! Great to hear him from right out front. Thank you!
Thanks for sharing! I just wish they would have turned Doug's bass up a little in the mix. I can scarcely hear it. That being said great performance!
One of my favorites for sure. Loved the earlier stuff.
One of my favorite bands all time. Love the fact they're still killing it.
Hard rock 🖤🤘
An amazing and resilient band that is still here. Jerry Gaskill went through so much and has come out on the other side. I wish them so much more success. I know they are in the twilight years but you never know. They deserve to be so much bigger..
One of my fav bands ever and the anthem of my youth and all my life ❤🍻
They are amazing!!!!!!!!
Dang, great video, and sound. All guitar. :)
Playing music for all the right reasons!! Thankful that they're still at it!!
Great video. Thanks for sharing. :)
Doug still does it even he's agnostic. Love does not have boundaries
agnostic does not mean you dont believe in God, it just means you cant prove it
I love Doug - he is the real deal.
Rock'n roll is king and God..!! And Fuck the rest!!
the messenger is here
Da13thsun
🎉AWSOME.
Ty is a king makes me cry every single time
GREATEST BAND EVER!!!
Simply The Best
They use to play in grand forks nd. A lot when I turned 21 they stop.it bums me out.
