Yes, we're aware it needs more cowbell! Congrats in advance to any commenters who don't make cowbell-related comments. :)

Ahahah love yourself Mike! You deserve that heart ❤
Please come to Germany :*/
Mike, who will be playing with you when you come to Sommerville, MA?
Florian Wolf I’m coming to Düsseldorf on September 29th. I hope to see you there 👍 www.ticketmaster.de/event/336345
Rick Stockhaus It will be mostly solo, but I hope to have a local friend sit in on a few tunes on bass. I’ll also be taking requests. 👍
People just have no idea how hard this is. Play all the notes without screwing up royally. Keep time, play together. Sing together, remember all the words. Keep track of the overall structure of the song and not get lost.
I know!😂🤣 I’ve been playing for maybe 12 years, still have trouble singing and playing at the same time! Rock on🤘🤘🤘
@@ryanbuckley5529 I have to practice a song like this so much to get it ready by the time I do have it I’m sick of the song😂
I took really naturally to playing and singing at the same time, but keeping time without a drummer, (and finding a drummer that keeps correct time) has always been tough. Practice practice practice and the songs become second nature. I haven't gigged in years but when i was we could play through our setlist forward backward and shit faced. Repetition is king.
Agreed! My former band covered this...lots of sweat, tears and cuss words! Great job, guyz!!!!! I salute you!
Oh yeah....I've tried it 😬it is difficult
I don't care about the absence of the cowbell. Masse and Hall are excellent. This is best rendition of the Reaper I have heard. A true honor to listen to these guys. Magnificent Music!!!
true.. I'm playing along with the cowbell in my head
If I was eating pizza and kicking back a few beers and heard this live I would absolutely freak out.
One of the coolest songs ever written, and this performance absolutely does it justice.
In fact,...this version adds another dimension to a classic.
Not an easy feat to accomplish.
Kudos.
TheNewAmericanMedia -- I've never heard it on acoustic instruments either... and I have to say those men played it /sang it tremendously well.
5 years later and this comment still holds true. This is a song you seriously can’t not enjoy. From the riffs, to the chorus, to the lyrics. Definitely showing my future kids this song. These guys took the song and honestly.. did the holy mans work. Unbelievable cover.
The vocals in this are absolutely legendary. I am in awe for real.
That’s easily one the best covers I personally ever heard! Absolutely love it!
As a drummer I love using your drumless and extremely accurate covers to drum to at home. Awesome, and thanks!!
Same here! It’s my therapy🙏🏼🙏🏼
great idea
please....can i listen. This cover is so tight.
Wow! I went to law school with Jeff Hall (on the left). Had no idea he is so talented. Jeff, very very cool.
im glad louis ck and tony hawk decided to do that duet tour they were talking about.
Awesome job.
jacob kirby overused joke :/
cesar rios
thank you for your support.
Haha made me laugh
lol i bet he wishes he wasn't louis CK right now
It's like somebody was going to kill them if they didn't play it perfectly
He walked all the way from Hadanfield
OF COURSE ,,, THE REAPER WAS GOING TO TAKE THEM , IF THE DIDNT MAKE IT !!...!!
😆
@@jonathancullen1272 It's a 4 hour drive. If you don't find him by then...I'm sure I will. -Loomis
You know, Jeff really has a great voice also. The two of you work so well together. It's beautiful art.
+Floyd Albarado I agree. Jeff has a wonderful voice and they sing so well together.
My God,the vocals are amazing....
Some day this song will outlive the antics of Christopher Walken, Will Farrell, and company. I truly believe that.
Thanks for this beautiful cover of one of my favorite songs ever!
Needs more cowbell
"I'm burnin for you" with Blue Oyster Cult please!!
First song I ever learned. So great. Made me almost cry.
300 views, now lets watch it go over 100,000+ Thanks Mike & Jeff! Hope this is a sign of things to come! Hope things are great with Noah, and family as well!
1.1m now… doesn’t deserve so little 9 years on.
Never written a comment on a RUclips video before, but I love this cover as much, if not more, than BOC's original, which is one of my favorite songs ever. So much talent here and humility too. Thank you Mike and Jeff, and come to Brooklyn!!!
I really hope someday you play to thousands of people who really appreciate what you're doing because that crowd sucks. You're damn talented dude!
Beautiful ❤❤
Came here for the cowbell, stayed for the magic. Absolutely fantastic.
Beautiful, and I don't even miss the cowbell!
guys guys guys! i loved it. But i gotta tell ya....i feel like it coulda used more cowbell...
I totally agree, but also the "wood block"! ;)
Funny how lame people cannot get that lame SNL crap out of their heads. Worse is they still think it's funny.
Chris Pappas You need a recipe...and guess what is it :> MORE COWBELL ;)
Or more maturity on your part? Perhaps a new joke? Negative on both counts I see.
Chris Pappas Newsflash........it IS still funny. It's only miserable people like you that claim it's not.
I can’t believe I lived nearly my whole life up till 2012 in Utah and visited the pie ALL THE TIME. And I never learned about Mike Masse until I left in 2012. Real bummer.
A perspective I’ve never considered!
Damn this was "kick ass" - great job guys. Blue Oyster Cult would be proud.
really outstanding. blown away.
You deserve 100 times the support you have Mike. I wish I had half the talent you have.
Awesome! Sounds really good.
Greetings from Turkey, magnificent !!
I'd love to see these guys live
Wow beautiful
Astounding!
This is seriously impressive. Nice guitar work and awesome backing vocal.
Just stumbled across this version--it's PHENOMENAL!!! Love it, love it!!
So great to see/hear you again! Sounds beautiful.
always had the bookmark, i was starting to think you would never be back, ok , i'm a few months behind, but i never forgot you guys, LINGER FOREVER :) cheers, mikey, sydney, aus
That was fantastic!!!
That was a brilliant version and would love to play that like you did
Just fantastic!!
Outstanding.
Both voices and guitar work is simply amazing.. video is amazing sound quality too.. you guys rock!!! Think I have played this 25 times today :) Whole song is goosebumps but that 3:06.. !!!!!!
Mike Masse is one talented artist!! I'm so happy he was able to raise the money for his baby and his medical condition!!!!
Love these guys!
Many thanks for your cover!!!
Best I've seen!!!
Simply incredible. You guys are excellent musicians, would love to hear some originals if you have some. Much love.
Excellent!!!One of your best!!
aaa i love this song
i took it upon myself and did my own cowbell, fucking love you guys.
I didn't know Louis CK and Peter Capaldi would make such a good musical duo.
Love it! Gr8 job Mike & Jeff.
Amazing work as always, thank you for sharing
You know you've spent too much time watching Mike Masse's videos when you're wondering where the Yankees hat went.

Don't fear the Reaper; he's bringing pizza! ;)
Great job guys.
***** PIZZA?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? COUNT ME THE HELL IN
any slices left? heh-heh
This is simply awesome!
Beautiful.
Anyone else making the cowbell sound by clicking your tongue off of the roof of your mouth?
Wasn't...But I am now...
well played sir! ;)
Playing the cowbell with a spoon and my glass soda bottle!! :)
Jennifer Lloyd awesome!
knuckle on the desk for me... ;-)
F**k the cowbell, This is absolutely flawless!
Beautiful!
Simply Outstanding...
Cowbell withdrawal, Cowbell withdrawal. lol just kidding.. Mike & Jeff.. WOW what a great cover .....
wish there was cowbell
Cherish G MORE COWBELL!!! Lol
More cowbell! :-)
STAHHHHP THIS MADE ME LAUGH WAY HARDED THEN IT SHOULD
Imagine the bookings they would have gotten if they had a cowbell and invited someone up..What a great drunk bar moment that would be for all
you'll hear it when the time is right..💀
Wow! Just wow 🤩!! Awesome 👏!
Good as always. Thank you so much for sharing !
Huh? I was expecting all the comments to be the same thing.... but seeing as I can't even see it on the front page, I'll oblige.
NEEDS MORE COWBELL!
come on, give it a rest with that cowbell at all comments!!! i love that SNL-clip too, but these guys did an excellent cover, so focus on that! very well played Mike Masse and Jeff Hall!
Amazing.
Love this song and love this version you both sound amazing!
I got a fever, and only one thing can make it go away.
... more cowbell !!
More Mike Masse and Jeff Hall, you mean
Who needs cowbell? The way these guys edited the original and made it their own is FAR Better!
My opinion, I do Not even think it is Blue Oyster Cult's best song as far as harmonies. That what I was trying to get at. These 2 gentlemen in the semi-acoustic set have better harmonies. Only thing missing is Cowbell :)
I'm telling you, fellas... you're gonna want that cowbell on the track ! ;))
love it
Wow, very nice. All of your music.
Can't stop listening! You guys harmonize perfectly!! What kind of guitar are you playing?
fuckin unreal gentlemen
Brilliant...such talent....
Bravo. Beautiful song.
Damn Louis CK can sing!! Just kidding Jeff and Mike look great here, and sound even better!!
I literally, sware to god, scrolled down to make a Louis CK reference. FUCK YOU hahah (:
It’s crazy how he matches the relative sound of each original artist. No matter what song, it sounds pretty close to the original singer.
While adding even crazier. , he ownes it with the soul of rock in his voice
Wow. Abolutely loved it.
Damn gives me chills everytime. Your harmozing is so amazing, pure, and moving.
1:47 I don't fear that at all.
I've got a fever,
This cover brings tears, so beautiful. Well done, well done!
Absolutely amazing as always.
Amazing version but where's the cowbell ?
Needs more cowbell
Awesome, great voices and great playing. Loved it.
Wow! This is really good. These guys have a ton of great covers!
Wish I could find a musical partner. You two are lucky.
(just don't get married, that screws everything up).
You mean to each other?
Nah, just a general observation meant for all of nature ;)
+Mike Masse Classic!
+ricky4001cs I'll be your musical partner but you have to propose to me and I get to pick the ring.
I think they already broke up or met the reaper...
(in cristopher walken voice) you know... i have a fever... and the only prescription... is more cowbell
Excellent, thanks
Oh my God! Awesome.....
Sry guys, but I need more cowbell.
please play "A horse with no name" by America
Agreed , thats a perfect song for you Guys !!
Good one! I think "Wildfire" by Michael Martin Murphey would be another one they'd nail!
Just Amazing! Thanks guys ur freaking awesome
awesome, timeless piece of music
18 people fear the reaper
Crazy that people walk right past the camera.
I could listen to this cover forever. Amazing!
Just brilliant. Thank you.
