- Warning: this one here is ONLY for the real die hard Homeskoolers out there.
Damn near 30 minutes of rehearsal footage....i thought about chopping it up, but then decided to give it all to ya in one big long painful block, so you can feel the slog of a 10 hour rehearsal day just like we do haha.
disclaimer: i clearly realize that there are worse 10 hour work days.....
i'll tell ya' a job that would REALLY suck.
top of my list of all-time nightmare jobs....to be the guy that cleans and maintains a busy airport restroom....there's something about "international shit" that's even more horrifying than "domestic shit"....
the worst job i ever had in my younger days was doing carpet and flooring with my older brother doug...it was great to hang out with him all day, but the job itself SUCKED.
i also did asphalt with my other brother Mike....a VERY small company in Cleveland called "Perfection Paving"...the only dump truck the company could afford was from the 40's and it wouldn't go over 35 MPH on the highway....which was a problem when you are carrying a hot load of asphalt long distances.
anyhoo....back to today's video...b roll rehearsal footage from the recently aired CMT show called "Giants" honoring Vince Gill.
Starring
Uncle Larry
Jedd Hughes
Paulie Franklin
Chris Stapleton
Jimmie Lee Sloas
Becky Fluke
I just appreciated how Tom made everyone relax - he was staying serious but having fun - keeping Jed loose - this was a masterclass in how to be a bandmate - and the performance is killer - great behind the scenes view of the music world especially Vince - a true giant.
How lucky that Vince and the all star lineup of performers got to play with you, Jedd and the rest of the house band! Beautiful tones and vibes.
This is about the 5th time i've come back to watch this, I'm lucky enough to play for some of my income but to watch the very top level pros work like this is so inspirational. thanks for posting Tom.
Just a heartfelt thanks for sharing this Tom. A masterclass in taste and tone, and how two guitarists should collaborate in service of the song. I watched the broadcast, and oddly felt very proud to see you there, especially your solo spotlight with Maren Morris.
The way you make Jed laugh is hilarious. Love how you just nominated him for the solo and he delivered. 🙏🏼
The call for more pentatonic blues licks in the solo cracked me 😂
A little more bluesy 😂
Thank you so much for sharing this. You have no idea the joy this gives us. Goosebumps, tears, laughs never felt so good.
Yep. GREATNESS!!!
That put a smile on my face. Man, this kinda thing is like having a cold beer at the end of a long shitty day. It just makes everything so much more tolerable knowing this stuff is out there.
Couldn't agree more... My job is slowly and steadily removing the spark from my life but this just hits different man
man... an absolute masterclass in tone, and touch on the instrument! Thanks for taking us along Tom
The way this solo evolved into what it came to be is amazing. I absolutely love the way the solo was performed. Perfection.
Outside of the country music community, Vince Gill is vastly under-appreciated for the depth of his talent. I don’t know him personally but I have a couple friends who do know him personally from guitar trading, both say he is one of the nicest men they have ever met. Congrats on the gig it was great. I watched several of the performances and I was near moved to tears on many of them
when Nashville went under water,
George Gruhn was rushing in to his store across from the Ryman talking to my former employer on the phone. The Ryman went under, but There was Vince Gill waiting to help George move guitars and stuff to the second floor not realizing his stuff was going under water across the river (and so did everyone else's).
@@phildohogne1970 thank you so much for sharing.
After watching and listening intently to the show Friday night I can honestly say this doesn't surprise me.
Everyone spoke so touchingly of him and his character. The world could easily use a few more Mr. Gills imo.. 🕊
Vince and Amy ARE as nice as they can be. As a former Nashville engineer I had the pleasure of recording Amy (never Vince, sadly enough).
My wife and I DID stand in line at The Pancake Pantry in Hillsboro Village one morning with Vince years ago. He was in line by himself. After a wait, Vince ended up getting seated at the table next to us….again by himself. After about twenty minutes of him dividing his attention between his menu and watching the door….I mortified my wife by turning to Vince and asking him if he got stood up for breakfast and would he like to join us at our table. He laughed and thanked us, but politely declined.
A bit later he got up to go to the bathroom. No sooner had he disappeared, Richard Marx stuck his head in the door, looked around, and not seeing who he was looking for…quickly left the restaurant.
Vince left directly after that, not returning to his table.
I’m sure the two had a breakfast meeting planned but never connected.
To this day, my wife still says….”I can’t believe you asked Vince Gill to breakfast with us!!”
That Chris Stapleton sure can sing though.
Love seeing stuff like this! Very few people get to experience this sort of thing and being a fly on the wall and listening is really amazing. Thanks for sharing!
I can’t imagine how awesome a band would be with Tom and Jed as twin guitarists. Whoever called y’all in to play on this special is a genius. Great licks, great tone, and it was easy to see the audience and Vince himself really enjoyed the band.
It’s Vince’s road band, so chosen by him
Agreed. A blues band would be awesome!
Hey Tom. Here is what this video made me think about. I played my truth, thru 20 years of original bands, and although not as well as you, I did me. Your channel and watching you play, It just really opens me up more, made me realize why I like it so much. You are just being you, it just so happens you kick ass at all sides of the field. You are the best man. Watching all those fills you do in this video shit man.. sick you are like a horn or key section most of the time it is incredible. no ego all uncle larry
Vince is no slouch so that you and Jedd got that gig seems to make make sense. Best of the best all around. Chris’ vocals are so soulful and fitting. Thanks for posting bro
I love that chat at 12:35 about the volume pedal. Jedd - "I just feel like the volume keeps dropping..." - This is possibly the most "inside a guitar player" moment I've ever witnessed on youtube. The sensation that there's no reason you shouldn't be able to hear yourself in the current circumstance, or a note isn't holding on like it should. It leads to the amp shop, buying new pedals, rewiring everything, and yet it will happen again. This video is great!
What a great look behind the scenes Uncle Larry! When CS asked to change key a half step, and everyone adjusted like they it was always played in that key was amazing. Just awesome.
It takes time to get good enough where you’re not stepping on someone else’s space. The tone is surreal!
Each take was better and the last take the boys had it polished
I wanna create a million RUclips accounts just to be able to like this incredible video more than once. Damn guys, brought tears to my eyes.
A masterclass in taste and tone. Thank you for your continuous inspiration.
Thank you, Tom. Seriously. Thank you for sharing this. You may think it’s “just rehearsal” but all of us Skoolers know it is much more.
I saw the performance of this and noticed both Tom and Jedd. How cool to also see this behind the scenes practice performance on the homeskoolin channel. Thanks for sharing with all of us 👍
You're like brothers man! Spectacular moment for all the schoolers, thank you so much for this! This performance really makes you feel like you're home.
Little Tommy, I grew up in Oklahoma so a big long time Vince Gill fan and was looking forward to this, but found myself watching you and Jedd with pride like I was watching old friends getting to do their thing on the big stage on TV. The crowd seemed to recognize both of your solos along the way, I am sure all of the Homeskoolers felt the same way. In reality it's just another day in the life for you guys!
That time when Jed was rippin and heard Tom play that sweet little lick on the outro and smiled like he just heard something amazing, which he did. You fellas are an inspiring standard to live up to. Thank you for sharing what you do 🙏🏻
I caught that too... uncle larry threw in some crazy melodical shit that fit perfectly and it made Jedd grin.
I would have watched the whole 10 hours. Really fantastic music by fantastic players.
What a pleasure to listen to this amazing band. Jedd’s perfectly Knophler-esc melodic solo, the great Paul Franklin, your expertly supportive and restrained guitar work and that beautiful vocal. Thank you so much for sharing this with us.
Crappy jobs are character builders and make you appreciate when a good job comes along. Being grateful is essential to a happy life. Thx Tom for the inside track.
Thanks for sharing this Tom. What a band and Chis Stapleton, Holy Shit, Greatness man!
Jedd’s solo was alright, needed more minor blues and finger-tapping but pretty good nonetheless
Guess I’m a hard core homeskooler cause this was gold! Thanks for not chopping!
Great can to see this! The stage/guitarrists... All "the thing"! Amazing players.
Great video. Great sounding Fenders played by great players. You complemented each other well and you were very supportive of your Fender-mate Jed. Amazing to see it all come together. You're all pros. It sounded fantastic.
The break Jedd played on this tune for air was epic.
You both sound phenomenal together in this band context. Such a lesson in control, dynamics and leaving space for the vocal! Very inspiring Tommy 🙌🏻
Very soulful and phenomenal restraint. Killer tones to boot!
Put me down as "diehard". So sweet! And here's what I love most: 3 players, 22+ strings ... and _oceans_ of space. How can something that sounds so "full" still _breathe_ like this? (Nice tune for this sort of treatment, Tom - well chosen!)
If loving this stuff makes me a diehard Homeskooler, that's fine with me. I love this stuff. Thanks Uncle Larry. I love seeing and hearing you play on that CMT Giants show. It warms the cockles of my heart. Great camera angle with you and Jedd.
I’ve been jamming with this song since someone pointed out the clips from the show that were posted on RUclips. Kept rewinding to see how the key change occurred and finally heard Chris ask for it. This is beyond cool. Thanks, Tom. 🙏🤘
Why can I not stop watching this constantly
Thank you for sharing, just dreamy, amazing players there sir
Thanks so much for giving us the whole thing. No pain, just heavily playing. Roar, love you guys!
Watching this video is magical to me… a real slice of life that we would never normally see so thanks for sharing this. Actually it’s a really cool camera angle and a real piece of art in it’s own right. Killer guitar tones ABS great to see how you guys bounce off each other 👍
A Masterclass of good taste. Thanks
Long day or not...nothing but smiles. Love seeing you and Jedd with genuine smiles of enjoyment. And thanks for the large block of rehearsal footage...made us feel like we were there with ya.
A great insight for a home recording player into what is really needed in terms of consistency and talent!
Don't forget patience! A masterclass in staying in your lane.
Sounds like Knopfler sometimes ! So beautiful 🙏🥰
Looking forward to binge-watching this Tom. I gotta say, after watching the broadcast twice, we've never seen so many people crying, that was one special-kinda show. Thanks for sharing, and for setting us straight on what shitty jobs really are, there are sure enough of them out there. Keep up the sweet licks and scrumptious tones, all the best, Russ
We greatly appreciate this "behind-the-scenes" view. You are the man, man.
Sweet Sweeet Vince Gill tune... played and sung flawlessly. Thanks for posting.......!!😁 😁😁😀
Thanks for this awesome gift Tom! The family and I are finishing up watching the rebroadcast of the show right now. Than I'm kicking them out for the day ..Football ya' know! Lol. Anyway..Absolutely mesmerized by yours and Jeds colorings on each song. What a performance of Whenever You Come Around by Chris! Happy Sunday Uncle Larry!
Just great to watch such brilliant musicians having fun and being so supportive. Perfect 😀
This feels like a great privilege. Thanks Tom.
Those guitar tones were soooo sweet! Hard to describe, just perfect 👍🏾
Killer. The way you play off each other and complement each other is world class. Jed’s solos are so emotive and each note carry’s weight and intention. Felt like I was on the edge of my seat while watching as you guys slayed each take. Pros.
"Sure between 3 of us we can find someone to take a solo" ... lmfao 😂🤣😂 ... Can see that you're truly enjoying this one! ... thanks for sharing, I could have watched for another hour and not tired of it! 🤘😊
"You Nashville Cats really know how to end a phrase"
Man...this fly on the wall stuff is priceless...thanks for sharing this Tom!
My only regret in watching all 28 minutes of this video is that I am unable to give it more than one thumbs up. Awesome stuff, Tom. Thanks.
I’m still replaying videos from the show. Amazing songs, amazing singers and musicians, and Vince’s shoutout to Noshville. Way to go, Larry!
This channel is a fountain of real info. What a great resource. We get to get a little brain rest here until the next big one.
@Uncle Larry / @501chorusecho - These videos are the greatest content for guitar players. While you and Jedd make all things sound amazing, would love a short video on the high-level breakdown of gear and amps used and why. I will be in Tulsa this week and look forward to picking up a t-shirt.
OMG....I keep coming back to this. Absolutely amazing!!!!.....TONES for days!!!
Did not realize how much work goes into these shows. Thanks for sharing, Nephew Larry.
"Yeh son" after that tasty solo and moving the camera to him. Uncle Larry is a legend
Very proud to be part of Uncle Larry's class....
What a Master Lesson in class, taste, understatement, camaraderie, humor and talent.
The guys in the pit have all the fun!
Thanks for letting us watch it go down!
Chris Stapleton sings his doggone ass off!
This is absolutely bloody awesome Uncle Lawrence. Tastier and more luscious than a bucket full of profiteroles. And the video description is one of your finest. If you ever have your own paving company you simply have to call it Overdriveways.😅
campaigning for Hughes take that fun ass solo speaks to the type of dude you are.
Cool seeing you at Rumble Seat yesterday. I'm the Lefty guy with the Firebird. Watched the show last night. Was so cool seeing you and Jedd laying it down with the band with big smiles on.
I didn't just have a moment in the break room at work that didn't just happen
Man, just spaced out listening to this while wiring a house. Sooooo good. Thx Uncle Tom for the inside of brilliance.
Thanks. I am so happy I found this channel, during the very beginning, so much value and talent and enjoyment, every post has been an adventure, and I dig the bluest blusey solos.
Hi Tom - I watched the B roll footage and the entire Giants show (some parts several times) and was totally drawn in to how you and Jedd worked together as complimentary players. Great example of collaboration.
The best song for me was "Don't Let Our Love Start Slippin' Away" with your fantastic solo on the LP. Not the easiest song for the rhythm player since it is in F, but when I saw Jedd's capo on 1, I knew what was going on. Putting all of your tutelage together. Your tone and phrasing were pure country and you pulled out the best parts of Vince's original solo.
just watched it again. epic.
had no idea u were on the show, it surprised me... you truly ARE the man. kudos.
Uncle Larry working double duty on tasty fills, comps and chords - and camera man ! Thanks for the front row seats to your and Jedd's fret work!
Fantastic guitar sound.
I am super digging the Knopfler inspiration in some of Jedd's phrases, so good. thanks for posting this
My god that voice!!!!! It’s astonishing!!!
This is awesome Tom! Thanks for posting the entire video! I forget just how good you and Jedd are together. Such talent!
Fun watching pros at work.
Man this is so great. Hopefully it will inspire all to rehearse more. Thank you for sharing this. Great behind the scenes that most, like me, would never get to see.
That little bend at 23:42! Hip musician humor. Love it. Great vid!
Such a cool behind the scenes moment. Thanks for sharing with the class, Uncle Larry!
I love how much Uncle Larry loves Jedd Hughes and his playing. This is good for the soul
Fantastico! I love this. Watching you guys play exactly what the song needs is inspiring. It reminds me that I don't have to play EVERYTHING I know...which isn't much to begin with. Thank you
I knew that was you Tom!!!
I could see the glow of your hair in the actual performance.
Beautiful thanks!! Made my day! I just found your channel today! So grateful I will be watching lots!!
I had a smile watching you guys interact, it was fun from another aussie Jed thanks Tom
Eye opening. I thought you pros just showed up, plugged in, ran through a couple songs and that was it. Live and learn.
You and Jedd are like the two kids at the back of the classroom, up to no good tellin jokes
Ain't no skoolin' like Homeskoolin'!
Man every one of these tunes could be titled “The Return of Uncle Larry.” Always great to hear a new tune. Beautiful. Love the playing. This one certainly fits my mood today - slightly melancholy but with hope.
Watched this last night and I must admit that I was always looking for Uncle Larry in the back. Glad to see they gave a lot of good shots to the band. I returned from playing a late nite gig, to be schooled yet again. Great stuff!
I come back to this video quite a bit. So inspiring!
Loved the rehearsal humor with the "inappropriate blues licks"... hilarious. Cool stuff Tom, thanks for sharing this.
Uncle Larry and Jedd MF Hughes is a match made in guitar heaven. Soulful, melodic, and exceptionally musical. Wow!
I think I speak for the class when I say what a great opportunity it is to "sit in" behind the scenes! Regarding the Vince tribute on Friday, I was channel surfing for a good program and ran across that one. While watching I noticed what I thought may be Uncle Larry in the band, given the riffs and mannerisms and as a plus your friend Jed ? Almost like Christmas, I hopped out of bed and went to the computer to confirm and saw that you had posted a reminder several hours earlier to watch . You guys were great as usual! Thanks for the lesson and keep them coming.
