      It's a great clip. But you can see how four sheets to the wind everybody was-anything goes be it blow, heroin, speedballs you name it-and sadly many of them died way before their time.

I'm on the couch now but I think I can learn this one. I like your lessons the best, for some reason w others I can't get alot of verses down.

    Thursdays are just a little bit better every week now. thanks for that man. now that i think about it, my Sunday's are too. if there is vote ever for two lessons a week ill support it by watching and sharing every chance i can. do you play acoustic much? id love to watch any lessons youd be willing to make on Jerry's acoustic music also. either way, appreciate what youre doing and look forward to seeing it all unfold.

    • @TobyDavvy
      @TobyDavvy  4 года назад +1

      Hey, bro. These very kind words mean a lot. And I do have plans to do the acoustic tunes and eventually get into the Jerry-grass. As far as another lesson a week? Maybe every once in a while when I have a bunch done and edited, but as far as two every single week? With the other videos on the channel and life, it’ll be quite a while before that’s a possibility. But hey, if these pick up and I start getting sponsors or paid from it, I will totally backpedal and do two a week. Know what I’m sayin?

    • @koryray5357
      @koryray5357 4 года назад

      Toby & Davvy right on man. I don’t have any clue how long it must take to make one of these but like anything, it must get quicker the more you do it. I suspect that two a week will become something you do purely from sharing the music that you do. Or maybe you even decide to do with some “lesson for your practice session” videos or something of the nature... Who knows though? Not complaining whatsoever, just thinking.. lol. I do know The Upbeat style and delivery is a slam dunk for musicians. Along with the knowledge bombs you drop about the band and the music. Its awesome! I’ve yet to find a channel out there with Dead lessons that come close to yours. Pulling for sponsorship and looking forward to the acoustic angle, Mann!

    really prefer the later adaption when they play it in E. The version on For The Faithful was the first version I ever heard so the versions in D always bend my ear when I put in an early 70's show. Great vids tho, don't get me wrong; I have gleaned some stuff from your vids fo' sho'

What scale is that based on? Looks like C major maybe? which doesn't make sense as key of D has C as a C#? what scales or modes would ya use to jam over this? thanks buddy keeping me happy here in my downunder lockdown life
