I saw you live in Germany. I'll tell you why those people responded the way they did to your music: they did their own research, they dedicated their time and energy to find about your band among all the lacklustre acts over there. They were not forced, it was their choice and their way of saying no to the current state of music "quality" (or lack of). They chose quality over quantity, musicality over showing off, human element over AI, real performance vs over-produced shows with pre-recorded tracks. All the best to you, your bandmates and I hope to see you live again!
It seems to me that the reception you experienced at all 3 shows demonstrates the beauty of the RUclips community that you have built. Congrat's on your first of hopefully many USA tours.
I drove 4 hours from San Diego after work to see my first show at the Troubadour, and im so glad it was you and your band. Ive been such a huge fan and you inspired me to go for it. So thank you for an amazing show.
I feel so fortunate to have been at the concert, right next to the stage. Chris and the whole band were amazing! I got a shirt, too. I drove from Phoenix. In line, the person behind me said she came from Alaska. Chris, please come back soon.
Chris, we were there at the Troubadour, absolutely incredible. We came from Redlands and got home at 1AM. Met you and Tom, you guys could not have been nicer and more gracious. Thank you to everyone in CB for such a great show! If you guys come back this way, we'll be there
Yeah, it’s refreshing when you meet people with such talent and yet show such humility. The Chris Buck on camera is the same guy off camera. You could tell they were all as excited as we were to be there. 😊
We planned our family vacation around seeing this show and it was perfect. Getting to meet Chris after the show and then again at Norm’s the next day was just an added bonus. Sam was an absolute sweetheart as well and I think my wife now loves him. LOL
Was at that show. Came in from Phoenix. Amazing! Thanks so much for taking the time to chat with me. I'm gonna find a date in the UK to travel to see y'all on the other side of the pond. Cheers!
Fantastic! So glad that it all worked out so well for you all! Cardinal Black is going from strength to strength! 'Money will not buy happiness, but it will let you be unhappy in nice places.' W. C. Fields
I drove 4.5 hours from Las Vegas to see you at Troubadour and that show meant a lot to me! I needed to be musically inspired again after taking sort of a long break from playing professionally due to many circumstances including an injury. What an amazing show it was! Looking forward to seeing you guys again in the US as soon as possible. P.S. You guys deserve to go mainstream. Cheers
Don't know if you could see it, but the house where you stayed is just a couple hundred yards from the famed Hollywood Bowl. By the next time you're back playing in LA, you'll be filling that up! Congratulations on a great first US tour!
Vanessa and I are looking forward to catching the band in the UK this coming October. We plan on having an offer for 2025 gig in hand when we arrive! Jeff
Nashville gig member here…hope y’all had as great of a time as we did! The show was so good of course but it was great finally getting to meet the band members! Such a memorable experience!
I can't imagine how elated you must feel to have performed at the Troubadour. Unreal but also expected somehow. I agree that the W.C. Fields house is gorgeous and at times, a bit unnerving 👀 (it was giving a bit of "The Shining" 🪓🚪 vibe). It's great that the issue with the shirts were resolved (love the oranges 🍊 design). Thank you for sharing your journey. I love, love this BTS episode. Recuperate in the coming time. I look forward to seeing CB and listening to the 2nd album later this year 😁 ("Half Way" and "Jump In" in the intro ❤️)
Such an Amazing show, I was thrilled to be there with my son, who is a budding guitar player himself (my bud never bloomed, but I still try, hahah) - It was a fantastic show. I can't afford too many concerts right now, so 2024 is only you, David Gilmour and Richard Thompson. You set a very high bar for those chaps!
First time for us at the Troubadour! Made the trip from San Diego and used you as an excuse to get away for the weekend… The show was incredible and we are still talking about it and sharing your music with our friends. Thanks again and hope to see you in the UK soon!
Well done mate - also nice to see the Revstar getting to see and wow the world. Hmmmmm, Jan in Cardiff... think I'll make the trip down from Brecon for that.
It was great seeing you at the troubadour. You were ripping it up! And it was great that you guys were able to stay in a historical house in the Hollywood Hills. See you guys soon.
Thanks for showing us the Trubador . It looked like a fantastic first tour of USA but i am sure it will not be the last. Great band! Great musicians. See you soon in your UK autumn tour.
I understand living your dream. I recently had that myself, playing the House of Blues in Las Vegas to a capacity crowd. I’m 58, so Bb I guess it’s never too late. Cheers!
Nothing other than what you guys deserve! Superb songs, great vocals, exemplary musicianship! Can't wait to see you at the Boiler House in Newcastle in October! I truly hope this is a springboard to some serious fame and huge gigs or there is no justice in this current musical world! Best wishes, Peter
As an amateur guitarist from south wales thank you for letting me live vicariously through your adventure. Absolutely thrilled at your success so far. Soaring solo work.
Congratulations - what an amazing performance - and thanks for sharing it with your fans who couldn’t be there. You have my vote for Best You Tube Guitar-related Video of 2024! I’ll even vote twice if that will help!
Hollywood. My old stomping grounds when I was touring around with a band. We got to play the Troubadour as well and it was a dream come true. Wish I could have been there for Chris's show but alas I now reside on the other coast.
Chris, your playing is outstanding! Every note choice is perfection, never too many and timed to perfection. A great example of the tone’s in the fingers too ‘cos you make those Fenders wail!
Thanks for the update and glad the tour went so well for all. Hope you come back and hit the southeast USA.. home of Southern Rock and Delta Blues 👍🏽👍🏽
Great night guys - and gal. Almost 8 hours to get there driving (prime time traffic!), another almost 4 hours (unexpected freeway lane reductions) to get home, worth every miserable moment on those dang freeways. And, we get to say "we saw the band before they went nuclear...".
Great to see man, that's the great thing about artistic endeavour like this , merit always rises to the top, you're one of the most soulful guitarists out there today, not just an imitation but you really express your own unique self, and we all know the audience can tell, well done! 👏👏👏👏👏
It's a wonderful thing to see someone who's worked so hard to achieve their dream actually achieve it. Heartwarming. Congratulations on your success. You've earned it.
Congratulations on the successful shows and your night at the Troubadour. ❤ What a nice treat to have that house in the hills rather than another faceless hotel. Looking forward to y'alls return. Or maybe we will come see the CB show in Cardiff! 😊
I’m sure promoters will be looking forward to your return to the US. Obviously you proved your worth as a show so I expect to see more of you all. I live in Las Vegas and there is an audience for you here. I suggest you bring more merchandise. A well deserved congratulations are in order to you and the musicians and crew of Cardinal Black.
OH BOY! How I wish I could have been there for ANY of your shows Chris. Well done, and congrats, you deserve all the success that will come from this tour and beyond with your incredibly talented band, FABULOUS! 👍❤️
Sending love to the most not rock band, rock band. Not a slight, you guys are phenomenal but offstage, so grounded and natural. I became a fan after seeing Chris on the pedal show, .
Congratulations to you and the Band for living the dream. God bless and see you when you return for a proper tour of many dates. Western Pennsylvania is waiting for you.
Awesome show Chris! We flew in from Northern California to see you guys and you didn’t disappoint. Easily one of my top 4 shows of the last decade and that’s counting legendary greats like Steve Vai and Chick Corea amongst my top 4 list! I never gush like a fanboy but I find your guitar playing so damn inspirational! It’s helped me fall in love with playing guitar all over again ❤ Cheers to you and I hope to see you in the US again soon!
Chris, as I big G’n’R fan myself that was a huge buzz to see you play The Troubadour, nice touch with the t shirt. Have just listened to the footage on headphones and gotta say that was emotional 🥲 The whole band sound Fuc#in amazing, beautiful bottom end!!👌🏻 As for your guitar playing, you are up there with the very best!! Fair to say your in a league of your own👌🏻👌🏻 Love the way you put your videos together, great to see. Enjoy a nice relaxing weekend with your family, you deserve it!!
Hey bud im a blues/rock guitarist from Philadelphia pa. I hope to catch you and your band someday, hopefully you'll gig your way down the east coast. Congratulations on your success here in Nashville and LA. Best of luck on continued success! ✌👍
It was such an honor to share the night at The Troubadour with you all. It was a magical night. See you guys soon!
🔥🔥🔥🔥

I don’t know if the world is deaf… this guy is a master piece in the music industry.
I was there at the show. It was truly a SPECTACULAR experience. You are all very talented. Thanks for a great time!
Agreed. Went for Chris and discovered a band with killer songs.
I saw you live in Germany. I'll tell you why those people responded the way they did to your music: they did their own research, they dedicated their time and energy to find about your band among all the lacklustre acts over there.

It seems to me that the reception you experienced at all 3 shows demonstrates the beauty of the RUclips community that you have built. Congrat's on your first of hopefully many USA tours.
For sure, the buzz around this band is growing rapidly, no doubt in large part to YT but also because of talent and great music!
I drove 4 hours from San Diego after work to see my first show at the Troubadour, and im so glad it was you and your band. Ive been such a huge fan and you inspired me to go for it. So thank you for an amazing show.

I know right!? I met them all too and they made everyone feel special that night. What an amazing time my friend!
They are the nicest people! I met them too! They met everyone afterwards! Good people😊😊

Lucky I wanted to go I’m also from Phoenix but couldn’t find the time sadly.
Welcome to the States. I hope you are being treated well here. Thanks guys for bringing Cardinal Black here. Very cool.
Fantastic! So glad that it all worked out so well for you all!
Cardinal Black is going from strength to strength!

It is a joy to see someone realize their dreams, especially when it is the product of such hard work. Congratulations.
Above and beyond all, don't lose your keyboard player. He's the glue that holds it all together. He's subtly great! And that's a very rare thing.
Adam and Sam laying down a perfect foundation for Mr Buck's fabulous guitar playing. See you in Falmouth in November!
Me too.
Well done Cardinal Black..
Don't know if you could see it, but the house where you stayed is just a couple hundred yards from the famed Hollywood Bowl. By the next time you're back playing in LA, you'll be filling that up! Congratulations on a great first US tour!
You never know what might come of a CB solo live but you know it will be in tune with perfect taste and intonation .
Vanessa and I are looking forward to catching the band in the UK this coming October. We plan on having an offer for 2025 gig in hand when we arrive! Jeff
Awesome. Thanks for being a patron of the arts!
Nashville gig member here…hope y’all had as great of a time as we did! The show was so good of course but it was great finally getting to meet the band members! Such a memorable experience!
Holy Sh!t that solo for warm love was absolutely face melting!!!
Great work Chris and all of Cardinal Black, hope to catch up with you in the UK again soon. 🎸👍🏻

Dude ! Just letting it all out. Way to show up for the moment. Truly inspiring stuff.

The show was incredible and we are still talking about it and sharing your music with our friends. Thanks again and hope to see you in the UK soon!
Glad you enjoyed Los Angeles. The weather here is pretty much perfect all year, so come back whenever.
Well done mate - also nice to see the Revstar getting to see and wow the world. Hmmmmm, Jan in Cardiff... think I'll make the trip down from Brecon for that.
You are a legend Dude
I got the feeling that we all will watch your raising to the stratosphere
Rockin' the Troubadour ... in a GnR Lies T-Shirt. Oh yeah .. Ohhhhh Yeah! \m/
It was great seeing you at the troubadour. You were ripping it up! And it was great that you guys were able to stay in a historical house in the Hollywood Hills. See you guys soon.
Love your gratefulness. I foresee many a' US tours in Cardinal Black's future. What an honor it was to watch you all at the Troubadour!
Congrats to you all ! Well done ! from Portland,OR.
I think I’ve just wet myself looking at those guitar stores 😮
Enjoy the ride. Long may it last!

Congratulations Chris, thanks for taking us with ya! 🖤
Chris and all, just brilliant ! That kind of playing hits me in the way that only the greats can ever do. Cheers and thanks.
Great video. Thanks for taking us along on your journey!
Hollywood. My old stomping grounds when I was touring around with a band. We got to play the Troubadour as well and it was a dream come true. Wish I could have been there for Chris's show but alas I now reside on the other coast.
Thanks for sharing and I wish you guys the best.
I'm so glad your first US tour was so great. Great talent in your band deserves no less!!!
Chris is one of my favorite guitar players right now, amazing work.
Chris, your playing is outstanding! Every note choice is perfection, never too many and timed to perfection.
A great example of the tone’s in the fingers too ‘cos you make those Fenders wail!
Thanks for the update and glad the tour went so well for all. Hope you come back and hit the southeast USA.. home of Southern Rock and Delta Blues 👍🏽👍🏽
Great night guys - and gal. Almost 8 hours to get there driving (prime time traffic!), another almost 4 hours (unexpected freeway lane reductions) to get home, worth every miserable moment on those dang freeways. And, we get to say "we saw the band before they went nuclear...".
I think it shows that you had a blast that night. Looks 110% enthousiast
Congrats, Chris and the band! Excited for you guys

It's a wonderful thing to see someone who's worked so hard to achieve their dream actually achieve it. Heartwarming. Congratulations on your success. You've earned it.

P.S love the guns n roses t shirt too 😅
Wow! What an amazing experience. You sound amazing. I hope your tour of the states is all you and Cardinal Black were anticipating it would be.
So, so happy to see this. You and the band have truly earned this 👊♥️
Congratulations on the successful shows and your night at the Troubadour. ❤ What a nice treat to have that house in the hills rather than another faceless hotel. Looking forward to y'alls return. Or maybe we will come see the CB show in Cardiff! 😊
The show was sold out before I could get tickets!😡 Man, I hope you guys make it back for more shows...PLEASE!
Congrats!! And thanks for the tour of your tour.
Congratulations!
Well deserved! Proof that success occurs when opportunity meets preparation.
Jeez. Looks like there were no stops left unpulled. Awesome fretwork there dude. Glad it went so well.

I live in Las Vegas and there is an audience for you here. I suggest you bring more merchandise. A well deserved congratulations are in order to you and the musicians and crew of Cardinal Black.

Your drummer has your back!
Congratulations, dude! Job well done, and well deserved.
Brings back memories of living in LA from 1983 to 1990. I have not been back to the Troubadour since 1989.
Chris, that was wonderful. You and the guys deserve all the success.
Chris, as I big G’n’R fan myself that was a huge buzz to see you play
The Troubadour, nice touch with the t shirt. Have just listened to the footage on headphones and gotta say that was emotional 🥲
The whole band sound Fuc#in amazing, beautiful bottom end!!👌🏻
As for your guitar playing, you are up there with the very best!!
Fair to say your in a league of your own👌🏻👌🏻
Love the way you put your videos together, great to see.
Enjoy a nice relaxing weekend with your family, you deserve it!!
It’s a wonderful thing to see someone live their dream. Thanks for sharing.
Congratulations on everything you have achieved in your career! A big hug from Brazil.
The G'n'R / Slash T does not go unnoticed. I hope it is a dream fulfilled for you..........until the next one 😉
Some of most exciting, lyrical guitar playing, I've ever heard. Sends chills up my spine.
Hey bud im a blues/rock guitarist from Philadelphia pa. I hope to catch you and your band someday, hopefully you'll gig your way down the east coast. Congratulations on your success here in Nashville and LA. Best of luck on continued success! ✌👍
So happy for you dude! You deserve all the best because you are the cream.
Congratulations, it was inevitable, you talent and hard work brought you there!
What a show it must have been! And fitting outfit for the occasion 😀👍
Congratulations on a dream come true!! Start planning your next tour and include Boston.
