- Paul Simon - The Boxer (with Bob Weir) - San Francisco, Live, Outside Lands 2019, Sun. 8-11-19, Golden Gate Park, 1st row. Paul: We've been friends ever since (1967). But actually, this is our first duet!
Other Tidbits:
Paul Simon retired from touring last year, but he remained open to one-off performances to benefit causes that mean a lot to him. For OSL, Paul chose the San Francisco Parks Alliance and Friends of the Urban Forest. Paul also performed A Very Special Outside Lands Pop-Up Show 2 nights earlier at the Fox Theater in Oakland. The last time he performed in the SF Bay Area was last year for the Homeward Bound - The Farewell Tour at Oracle Arena. Everybody was excited to see him (again!).
Simon: Well I have an old friend who is coming out to join me tonight... I met him in 1967... I was coming up to the Haight-Ashbury to invite The Grateful Dead to join the Monterey Pop Festival. I knocked on the door of their house, and Bob Weir opened the door... and we've been friends ever since! But actually, this is our first duet!

Bob Weir forgets lyrics. Sometimes he sings great. I think I will miss him when he is gone. Lately I see him about once a year. I don’t criticize. I am thankful he is there for us still.
He's been forgetting lyrics for 50+ years - it was just part of what the Dead did. Not to worry about. I wish I had a fraction of his chops...
That other hippy guy didn’t forget lyrics...
@@ramboorider1 guitar or mutton?
@@walterkersting1362 Far less complex songs
Tony Danis I was referring to Jerry Garcia. He wasn’t known for forgetting lyrics, some of those songs were really long.
Paul hatte sichtlich Spaß an diesem Zusammenspiel. Zwei Profis und große Musiker. Perfekt. 👍
And my friends... hope to see you all with his age and doing what he does best. Almost 80 man!
iLove it Paul Simmons been around a long time I’ll tell you what he still can perform and he still sounds good matter fact excellent I don’t think his voice will ever die out he still sounds great after all these years probably still crazy after all these years to ha ha👍❤️🎸😎☮️
Love you guys...this song will always make me cry...
respect to paul he's the one that put down this song on earth !!!
Two treasures Weir’s a guitar legend, that fret hand and picking 💯 and Simon’s words ❤️ one love
Images an feelings of my childhood home on the NYC wintered streets. NY was cold as hell and yet always warm in spirit an heart. This and AMERICIA are definitely my top favs .
Bob is what happens when cool gets gray. Enjoy him while's he's still with us. Neighbor Bob--
Would everybody please stop talking about Weir passing on? He's a health freak, musicians tend to live longer lives, si can we just presume he's for a good few years more?
@@tonydanis1480 Ever heard of the "27 Club"?
@@WallyVanRiper1 No, what's that?
@@tonydanis1480 All the rock stars who died at age 27. Look it up.
@@WallyVanRiper1 Gotcha
1970 to 2019 almost 50 years amazing Paul Simons still hitting hard
You just gotta love Simon. Amazing Man I wish he lives forever.
A Century's worth of musical experience between these two icons..
Steve koch
I will NEVER tire of seeing Paul Simon... ❤️
Tnxxxx......
@David Wang Not true at all. AG wanted to continue making movies back then and then come back for 6 months and make records with PS..., that didn't work for PS, understandably so. That is why the split happened. AG had a beautiful voice, but PS gave him the songs to showcase that beautiful voice. Without PS, there never would have been an AG, except in his local church. BUT, I grew up with S&G and will forever be grateful for them both. 💜💜
Their guitars are so serenely beautiful together-one can hear they really are old friends
Two living legends on stage together..They were both clearly loving the moment..Thanks for an amazing wonderful distraction from the madness that is the world today....😏
Amen
never saw Paul smile. before this.
Bobby and Paul ....Two classics and such a wealth of music no one here can imagine ... I love how in the end ..it grabs you and your smiling ...sweet !!!
Welcome to Thailand
Love from Thailand.
I'll tell you what's special to me about this. Not only is Weir on stage with Simon, but my old friend, next door neighbor and the person who got me into playing drums and then eventually introduced to me to the Grateful Dead is right behind both of them playing drums. It's so crazy to see
Robert Hall Weir is only71 and fit as a fiddle, and on this you can actually hear his amazing guitar playing. Chords up the top end, triads and quadrads, amazing rythem patterns. Most be difficult when your playing with a perfectionist like Paul Simon.
If theres one thing bob weir can always do it is play some killer rhythm guitar
Grew up on Simon and Garfunkel,...laying out my winter clothes wishing I was gone..
Those were the days!!!!!!
Two musicians that have made so much great music over the last 50 years,and so many people happy in the process..🙏🇺🇸
Joseph Mendozza .... I guy - simon
w/ respect to them in 2020
So many roads
It reminds me of every inches of what I have passed during my lifetimes, and it turns my heart blue... thanks..
Whenever i heard that song it always reminds me of years when i was young.
Great song.. and to see Paul Simon permorming it live with Bob Weir is just to cool.... Just a couple of grandpa's now in the music industry, still offering many good vibes ...
Too cool to.........
我らがよき時代!
ポールもすっかりおじいさん!
でも元気!
いつまでも歌って、聞かせて!
@1:14 "THE DEAD DON'T DIE!" You know it brother!
What a fun show! They clearly are having a GOOD time!!
Two Gods on the stage!! This happens!!
The voices have faltered but the guitar skills have remained. Superb!
Socially isolated, because I am also an oldie, and happily singing along with the li li li's. Wonderful.
Such joy❤ Wish I.been there 💐
"The Boxer" is a timeless, iconic masterpiece that was never able to be captured live as it was on record. the harmonies, the build-up and the production of that song and it's "New Yorkness" has never left me not feeling goosebumps. It's on my "Ten Desert Island Discs". this certainly isn't a great version of it, but hey....no one stays young forever.
Admirable! Quien sabe lo hace. Una sensibilidad increíble! Perfecto! Gracias por existir y traer alegría a muchísimas personas!!!
Amazing!!
I have seen Bob Weir in concert far more than any other artist, but I saw Paul Simon earliest in my musical travels, Simon and Garfunkel in 1965. Thanks
Yes, me too... In the eighties and nineties I saw many bands two or three times, like Rush, Pink Floyd, U2, Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins, Sublime, Yes, Genesis, Crosby Stills Nash & Young, Guns N Roses, and Van Halen (to name a few :-) I saw the Grateful Dead 26 times (including the concert for Bill Graham at the Polo Fields in Golden Gate Park) that period while Jerry was still with us... But I always marveled at the way Bob would take over a song either with his voice or his incredible rhythm guitar/sometimes lead guitar, while Jerry just sat back and kept the beat!!
A jam among friends. Thats the vibe I get. Like seeing old retirees at the breakfast shops.
Love these 2 with all of my heart! ❤️❤️
Hello dear Fan. I've seen quite a handful of your comments on my post and I just wanna go out of my way to appreciate your beautiful words of encouragement towards my music thanks so much
❤
Simon and Weirfunkel !
Yeah!!!!!😆😆😆😆😆
Bobby and The Simonizers
good one Richard white!
Simon and The Greatfunkels !!
😀👍
Great harmony!! Paul& art..
This was the same day as my mom’s funeral. I miss her so much. This song brightened my spirits.
I'm sorry for your loss brother... Keep the Faith!!!
Bless you Daniel and the eternal spirit and memory of your Mom... in rhe clearing stands a boxer,,, and the fighter still remains the same...Indeed...you ARE the Boxer!
This isn't all about YOU.
WallyVanRiper1 mean
I'm so sorry. My mom was killed a couple years ago. Music like this makes those painful anniversaries more bearable.
Too young to remember, but what a treat and how much I wish I hadn’t missed this great moment in musical history history
In a few short years, all the faces of the greatest music to ever be recorded for a group of people who went through hell and back (Vietnam) will be gone forever. The composers and their songs were recorded for posterity to be preserved for all time. The Brits, the Americans, the Dutch, the Canadians, mes amis, gave the world the gift of the most beautiful rock and roll in all its incredible forms...never to pass this way again....ten thousand years from now, if we survive, a person will be assimilating this music into her/his cortex and grooving to the amazing vocals and ancient musical instruments of the greatest generation and smiling knowing full well that the lucky ones were there: we were there.
Nice one paul. Thanks for all the great songs you gave us
I love u guyz. God bless u both
The legends of music history!!
That takes me back a few years, still love it though!
O my giddy Aunt 😮😮😮❤❤❤
GRACIAS PAUL SIMON, POR UNA VIDA APASIONADA DE PROLÍFICA POESÍA MUSICAL. ALEGRASTE AL MUNDO. SOY TU FANS
My favorite duo of all time
Randall thanks for the words of encouragement and support I really do appreciate you
1969 me deu saudade dos meus 10 anos minha adolescência minha infância tempo que volta mais . ouvindo no rádio ABC a voz de ouro todo branco com a frente dourada e um canário da terra 🐥na frente dele.era muito bom essa época muito bom o vídeo.
Thank you for uploading this and give us the opportunity to see these two Legends playing together in 2019
So beautiful music value
Bob Weir knows every note on the neck. He is a guitar master.
there's only 12 of them
OMG Please tell another. I'm dying over here.
couldn't have said it better. I love bob and it makes me so made when people underrated him or talk bad of him. he's a musical legend and rock royaltie. love you bob
@David Wang Technically, there are only 12 notes on a fretboard. How you use, invert them is another story. Still 12. Good day sir.
Lol...yeh ok.... whatever.
How terribly strange it feels to be 70 , old friends! Very special.
What great vibrations to send me off for the day. Thank you, for putting a smile on this girls face this evening. Many blessings!
I love it that Paul is obviously really enjoying this and clearly loves Bob
Yes, I completely agree. and I think Bob surprises Paul with sone rhythm for a second!
six months ago
so paul knocks and bobby answers and paul enters and then..??
At 4:16 Paul is watching Bobby and says "I Like That". So cool! Going to Playing In The Sand! I can"t wait!
Gigante da música. Maravilhoso. Parabéns
Bob Weir strolling out on stage like a gunslinger of rock n roll. The real OGs right there.
Good
Beautiful - two humble masters!
love bobby at 3:43 - he fucks up (like on truckin'), has the "oh shit" look, and the crowd cheers. thanks so much fir posting
😂😂😂😂 I thought the same.... I’m done ,that’s the reason why I love Bob 😁👍👍
Who can be sad when they sing The Boxer ? Sadness is terminated for lifetime......
Every time I listen to or sing this song, various scenes that happened in my life come to mind.
Music does that. It can bring you right back to the time you heard it etc. It’s just an amazing gift we have, music! Peace ☮️
Me too
Greetings from Finland Woow 🌹🙏🎶🎧😂💕
Absolutely Awesome
Imagine the years of adventures that Bob Weir has experienced
Paul still has his legendary Voice!!!!!!!!
@David Wang The man's 80. Lets see you perform this good at that age.
Bob does what Bob wants, for he is the Bob. Can I get an, Abide!
The Bob abides!
Man what scene it dont get much better than this. Much thanks for sharing.
Just wonderful...!
Happpppy Birthday Bobby !!!
At least today i can say. If I die today, life was worth living tnx to Simon n Garfunkel.....
How lovely friend meeting each other may God bless both of you. I am from Nagaland East India
AWESOME ! Thank you so much for recording right up to the end !
At last, Bob's back. Paul gets carried away with the music, forgets where he is in the song, and, similar to a beloved friend of ours, forgets bits of the lyrics. Astounding!
Congrats for the historic moment that you gave us!
Of course I will 😮😮😮❤❤❤❤
Real artist right there. When you mess up, just keep playing and work yourself out of it.
A rule never to be broken on stage: never stop playing. 😎
The Dead were masters at that! Kind of made them special.
Hello from Patti Cornell. Loving the new music coming around again. Lots of great music today. Thx for sharing. Thx to Bobby and Jerry for the amazing music today
God bless Bob
Thank you for sharing this treasure with us
Emocionante ver esses Lendários...
😢😢😢👏👏👏👏😂😂😂😂😂
It's great to see Santa and Mel Brooks playing and singing together !
hahahahahahahahaha!!
Lmfao.
Not nice ageism
@@123456irishgirl I don't recall mentioning any ages !
@@morrisjvan Santa and Mel Brooks you are passing comments about the appearance of these two people in a negative manner based on how they have aged comparing them to two elderly figures it's the inference I was referring to not very respectful and somewhat shallow. Respect please no need for your negative cutting comments peace
Долгих лет жизни вам ребята!
Приятно вас увидеть и неожиданно как-то.) Здорово!
O que comentar sobre Paul Simon? Como dizem os mais jovens, um monstro. Meus com seus 78 anos, ainda nos dá o prazer de ouvir sua voz.
O tempo passa mas o que é bom fica. Esse Paul Simon é execelente.
They are stalwarts of different and maybe even more generous generation, at least in music anyway.
So cool. It's a Paul Simon concert, but he's looking at Bob Weir, smiling in admiration while Weir just kills it on guitar. Thank you SO much for posting!
Killed it? Bobby comes in too early on the chorus and drags on the guitar during the verses. The back up band stops and restarts trying to figure out where he is in the freaking song. I love Bobby too but c'mon.....
I can definitely understand what the other guy is saying but honestly, Bobby can do no wrong
@@andrewt3417 I love Bobby and I LOVE the Grateful Dead. That being said Bobby has always been way erratic in his playing. Bobby on Europe '72-genius. This clip? Bobby is playing his own song and the band doesn't know where he is. Bobby and Mickey have always been on their own musical planet. I'm not hating, I'm just saying that after playing with Jerry for 30 years a little more musicality should have rubbed off.
@@walkingtal4157 Ehh. You dont make a lot of sense. The song was probably not well rehearsed. Weir knows more songs than maybe any man alive. Pretty sure that if he rehearsed more w Paul the song would have sounded better but as is, was fine and Paul Simon was smiling start to finish.
Admiration? He's probably thinking "Oh shit, what did I just do to my career?".
Thank you so much for sharing ! Wonderful video AdmiralNeeda !!!
O lutador música linda.parabens poul Saimon.
Paul Simon é simplesmente melhor compositor de todos os tempos.
Could be
So good to see 2 old farts that changed my world of music and many other people's, enjoying the golden years and each others craft talent and company on stage
I like
Good to remember all the hits special acoustic music from Paul Simon
The dead never die. I wish I was there. I would have peed
Thanks especially to Bob Weir. In Memoriam to the great Jerry Garcia. The music from Grateful Dead is still great. I hear this music about 40 years and it's still great
I went to outside lands 8 14 10 spent my last penny hell of a night FURTHUR
Weir has an unfailing ability to look like he might not know where he is.
I just made a comment on the same thing before seeing your comment. lol He's looked like that for years.
For a lost man he certainly finds himself kicking ass on guitar, all over the world....... what an awesome close of Outside lands festival!!
ehh, he looks pretty aware to me. he is very humble. confident but humble.
Sort of
Thats the daily acid leaving its mark
Thank you for posting this
Pretty Cool Pretty Neat!
keep on truckin!!!!!
I cried when I was there. I’m crying now.
Buck up Lad!
Lotta love in that room.
