I love the fact that you guys play "Whippin' Post" I saw Duane 4 times including the final weekend at the Fillmore and 9/19 at Stonybrook and I was right n under Duane for the second set.
The coolest guitarist in rock at the moment (besides RJ & Rhett of course ;-) is Scott Holiday and his badass birds. I admit, I've gotta a bit of a rock, man-crush on that guy....actually, it's more like jealousy. :-D
I think they are all brothers , them three. I mean, the singers got that beard and those glasses; the drummer just has the beard, and the bass thumper has the same glasses.
@@RhettShull That's reassuring! I just started learning guitar last summer and just got a Wolfgang for Christmas and as much as I love it I think the flloyd rose is a bit overwhelming for me at this early stage, but no other guitar really "called out to me" until that Firebird. So I really appreciate your videos dude! If you made a video going over the firebird I would be all over that!
Temperamental witches though. I had a firebird which sounded great but was always one bend/humidity shift/too loud kick drum away from going completely out of tune mid song.
I wasn't able to hear Rhett's singing at all. Those harmonies we were hearing were with the drummer. I can see Rhetts lips moving but i only was able to hear the harmonies between the drummer and singer for some reason?
For this situation, specifically, while Noah sings the main melody, Ian is doing the higher harmony while Rhett is doing the lower harmony to fill the vocal gap, making it sound fuller.
Is that Tilly filming during the performances? Because she does an AWESOME JOB, she knows just where to point the camera to highlight the emotions of the songs. I really feel like I'm in the room!
Hey Rhett. I cam up and said Hi on your Charlotte night. I just wanted to thank you for being so gracious and nice and taking the time out of your break to talk to a fellow guitarist and fan of you and your channel. You are one TOP NOTCH PROFESSIONAL. Thank you so much, Rhett. We appreciate you.
this is by far your greatest backstage journal yet. everything about this fantastic video just engrosses you into the life of a gigging musician. absolutely incredible rhett
Rhett, gotta give some credit here. That was the best sounding thing I’ve heard you do in following you a few years. You are really finding a great voice with your playing!
I watch your channel now for 3 months sinds I stopped playing metal and man you learned me allot and you are such a great and underrated player! Love your vids man. Kind regards from Belgium
I so appreciate a channel with such high quality content, but what makes me love this channel so much, other than the obvious music stuff, is the higher volume of videos Rhett puts out. Like a great fix from a dealer that keeps on giving you the drugs (I assume, wouldn't know first hand).
That Firebird sounded great during the sound check. Also love how the finish is wearing in on Noah's Novo. Looks amazing with that sunburst coming through.
So cool for you to share this with us. Your backing vocals are really sounding good, Rhett. (Don’t forget to eat the mic!). Looking forward to more of these. Great band.
Rhett, you have the kind of tone that cuts through like a ray of sunshine on a cloudy day. And man, I need to see you guys live. I live in Concord, NC. Definitely gonna watch your tour schedule close.
Rhett, I really like what you do with this band! Great music, great writing on new tunes and great playing on covers! Everyone involved are total pros.
Ah, Rett your solo with the firebird was absolutely beautiful and sounded like a great conversation to me. Lovely. Your awesome Man. I love Noah and the guys too
Man Rhett, thanks for putting out all this great content. I'm in a rut when it comes to my own guitar playing. Struggling with my chops and my Helix sounds, but whenever I hear your play through an amp or your Helix, it just makes me wanna go and pick up my guitar immediately! Keep the videos coming, man! Your tone is the goal I strive for.
Man, the bands harmonies are on point! Good job all the way around - playing and singing Rhett! I bought tickets to the Charlotte show and had something come up last minute and couldn't make it. Hate I missed you guys - sounded like a great show! Maybe next time around! Until then, y'all keep killing it!
I swear I'm hearing a B3.. on nearly everything.... and a trio of gospel singers singin backup ("You're the only light I need....)................and that cover of Whippin Post sounds epic..... :)
I used to listen to Dickey Betts and Bama Jam at the Daleville Inn in Daleville AL right outside the Fort Rucker gate in 1981 and their big hit was "He Stopped Lovin' Her Today"
Rhett!! You honestly made me get my shit together as a musician and just take it serious , I’ve gigged out all in 2019 but I just took it for granted and now I’ve re humbled myself into actually taking it seriously , You ever in NYC - a beer on me
Every time you post a new video I’m infinitely ecstatic that I found your channel. Thanks for all of the amazing content, brother. Also, I love the shit out of Ian.
When you guys found out there was a mechanical bull I laughed my ass off. Rhett welcome to the club brother!! My band played Club ManchVegas in Manchester, NH with people ridin the bull to Rage Against the Machine, Tool, Pantera etc..
"Dim Lights, Thick Smoke and Loud Loud Music" written by Joe Maphis in 1952 on his way home to LA after he stopped by a bar in Bakersfield. Yeah, I'm that old. With a little practice you guys could open for Chris Scuggs or Chuck Mead ;-)
"It's like I'm driving a stick-shift"...classic Rhett! What an awesome time and nothing like breakng out of your comfort zone to discover something new that you're suddenly finding yourself in love with! Really enjoyed this episode...I might have to revisit country music...maybe? Got a new ending for you...One Moment... One Life... One Chance.... One Plan! Rock on! 😎🎸🐦🤘
Nice this one.. Because it has the Bird in it. I own a custom shop Firebird V one of the reissues myself, And that is what you instantly spot when you play one and hear another one- the tone and the playing dynamics are unique. I hear the bird blend in so well here. Hat's off!
Rhett, I don’t know why but you look very natural with that firebird. That guitar fits you very well. Like it’s part of your persona. Like Stevie and his strat. That bird makes your stage presence. The novo is great. But you and that bird really look like a team.
As a country guitarist, it’s my favorite genre to play. Good country music is fucking GOOD. Some of the best artists today are red dirt and underground country music artists. Also when I bought my first pedal steel, the first thing I did was strum the whole neck and had the same reaction. I was like “oh, yeah, that’s St. Patrick’s Day, John Mayer” Love the Eagles shirt by the way.
There are many great guitarists out there, but Rhett is currently my favorite guitar player to listen to. And his videos are like a free education in guitars, related gear, and guitar lessons. BTW - The cover of Whipping Post was great. The vocal harmonies we get to hear in this video are fantastic.
Whipping post was so good live. I was there at Coyote Joe's, got a strat pickguard signed by Rhett and Noah. I would highly recommend attending a show for anyone that can, it's worth it.
My first video course, The Tone Course, is now available. Check it out here!

I love the fact that you guys play "Whippin' Post" I saw Duane 4 times including the final weekend at the Fillmore and 9/19 at Stonybrook and I was right n under Duane for the second set.
@1:30 you're playing an awesome song. I've been looking for it but can't find it anywhere. Could you shar ewhat it is?
Maybe? Totally haha!!!!
So am I rick. And I will be owning up to it
Love both of your channels.
Went to med school. Live vicariously through you guys.
Wouldn’t change. But you guys have more fun!
I are one, too
Firebirds are insta-cool, like a good leather jacket.
I feel like a new man with the bird
The coolest guitarist in rock at the moment (besides RJ & Rhett of course ;-) is Scott Holiday and his badass birds. I admit, I've gotta a bit of a rock, man-crush on that guy....actually, it's more like jealousy. :-D
@@RhettShull The way the jacket-hat-Firebird combo looks makes you 𝙎𝙊𝙐𝙉𝘿 better...
@@RhettShull man I want that guitar.
@@herbertfeldman6223 true. I got a badass strap on my tele and I know it makes me sound better. because I feel more badass.
That bass player better grow a beard quickly if he's wants to keep his job.
I believe he is going for the ironic look like ZZ top's Frank Beard lol
peter cushion ironically he reminds me of Link from Rhett and Link
I think they are all brothers , them three. I mean, the singers got that beard and those glasses; the drummer just has the beard, and the bass thumper has the same glasses.
that bass player is damned smooth and solid....bass players are seldom fully appreciated for how they affect the band...and i'm a guitar player...
.....and slap
I think I'm going to start saving for a firebird, that's a beautiful instrument
They are like a fine bitchy woman Pain in the ass and so worth it!!
Im loving that one, such a cool guitar.
@@RhettShull That's reassuring! I just started learning guitar last summer and just got a Wolfgang for Christmas and as much as I love it I think the flloyd rose is a bit overwhelming for me at this early stage, but no other guitar really "called out to me" until that Firebird. So I really appreciate your videos dude! If you made a video going over the firebird I would be all over that!
Definitely one of the most kick-ass looking (and sounding) guitars out there
Temperamental witches though. I had a firebird which sounded great but was always one bend/humidity shift/too loud kick drum away from going completely out of tune mid song.
I wish more people could appreciate the beauty of the sound of a pedal steel, outside of the expected Nashville-based crew.
Hey, Rhett's singing! Those harmonies sounded good.
I wasn't able to hear Rhett's singing at all. Those harmonies we were hearing were with the drummer. I can see Rhetts lips moving but i only was able to hear the harmonies between the drummer and singer for some reason?
Rhett's singing a lower harmony.... it's there... I hear it.
For this situation, specifically, while Noah sings the main melody, Ian is doing the higher harmony while Rhett is doing the lower harmony to fill the vocal gap, making it sound fuller.
It ain’t easy... trying to fit in between 2 great singers, the drummers harmonies are top notch. I applaud yall it’s a collaborative effort
Dude, that rendition of Whipping Post was Killer!
Year old comment but for real dude they killed that
That firebird screaming on whippin' post...beautiful!
Is that Tilly filming during the performances? Because she does an AWESOME JOB, she knows just where to point the camera to highlight the emotions of the songs. I really feel like I'm in the room!
Yes, when its not Rhett filming, and when Tilly is there, she takes the reins.
Hey Rhett. I cam up and said Hi on your Charlotte night. I just wanted to thank you for being so gracious and nice and taking the time out of your break to talk to a fellow guitarist and fan of you and your channel. You are one TOP NOTCH PROFESSIONAL. Thank you so much, Rhett. We appreciate you.
It's insane how good you all play together. Sounding so good.
Man, your playing on whipping post was stellar!
this is by far your greatest backstage journal yet. everything about this fantastic video just engrosses you into the life of a gigging musician. absolutely incredible rhett
Thanks for turning me onto Noah Guthrie. He’s on the top of my play list. I can’t wait to his new album.
14:26 - Honky Tonk = You might be cryin...you might be drunk...you might be drunk and cryin. Classic.
Just starting to save for a novo inspired by you.
The more I watch this channel, the more impressed I am with Ian. The guy can do it all! Great voice in addition to everything else.
9:26 "my slide guitar for the run"
16:12 "(just kidding)"
He probably kept the Solus in open D.
Rhett, gotta give some credit here. That was the best sounding thing I’ve heard you do in following you a few years. You are really finding a great voice with your playing!
Only light i need, what a song! Cant get it out my head and i'm always playing along with it at home.
I watch your channel now for 3 months sinds I stopped playing metal and man you learned me allot and you are such a great and underrated player!
Love your vids man.
Kind regards from Belgium
Excellent as always Rhett. You're a great bunch of guys with a great look and a great sound. Thanks for sharing.
thanks for these tour vids rhett. never stop never stopping
Ian has a fantastic voice. Really loved his harmonies during your practice in the house!
I so appreciate a channel with such high quality content, but what makes me love this channel so much, other than the obvious music stuff, is the higher volume of videos Rhett puts out. Like a great fix from a dealer that keeps on giving you the drugs (I assume, wouldn't know first hand).

I think Ian is my favorite part of you touring with Noah. Cracks my shit up
I've never wanted a Firebird until now. Rhett Rocks!
Thats the greatest vlog youve put up! the rehearsal Insights combined with Backstage and live footage, keep em coming!
Man, the bands harmonies are on point! Good job all the way around - playing and singing Rhett! I bought tickets to the Charlotte show and had something come up last minute and couldn't make it. Hate I missed you guys - sounded like a great show! Maybe next time around! Until then, y'all keep killing it!
Picked up right where you left off. A break is always a good thing. Sounding so good, man!
“We play country and western”. That was an old joke but your timing was impeccable.
Jesus that's a BEAUTIFUL firebird. Gorgeous tone my friend.
You're a very good group and singing in several voices suits you very well.
Great music.
A really good group.
Really good compositions.
Well done!
The best joke/comment in the this video was the "it's a John Mayer song". I laughed out loud for real. :)
Damn, I really enjoyed that! Nothing like a super tight band! Everyone on point, and straight 🔥 on the lead guitar. 👌
I swear I'm hearing a B3.. on nearly everything.... and a trio of gospel singers singin backup ("You're the only light I need....)................and that cover of Whippin Post sounds epic..... :)

very cool
Really cool to see Randall playin with you dudes! Played a lot of shows back in the day with that dude...also sold him a Hamer Explorer once haha.

First you turned me into a Jessy Wilson fan; had to buy her stuff; Now I'm a Noah Guthrie fan...iTunes here I come.
In ear mixes for practice. That's one great thing about the everything split rack. Consistency.
Wow man.. i always love your guitar sound in every you hit the string.. especially the overdrive.. sound amazing, always
I can't handle the hat AHAHAHAHAHA
Also, that firebird sound is massive! Love it
Awesome!! Thank you! LOVE the behind the scenes stuff!
Loved hearing Tyler Childers coming out that ole juke box.

You playing that Gibson Firebird looks Badass! Never was interested in them until now. Awesome tone and playing.
You guys *ROCK* Whipping Post **EVERY*SINGLE*TIME**
HELL YEAH! ❤️🤘❤️
the harmonies 1:50 sound so good together. Their voices blend so well
Nice this one.. Because it has the Bird in it. I own a custom shop Firebird V one of the reissues myself, And that is what you instantly spot when you play one and hear another one- the tone and the playing dynamics are unique. I hear the bird blend in so well here. Hat's off!
That cover of whipping post is nasty my dude! Bitchin Tone! Keep up the great work! Noah has great power and range. The whole band kills!
So great to see, you guys play so well together .
Dude, you look so much more relaxed or comfortable on stage in these new videos. Must be the hat😜
Really becoming addicted to your channel. Duane and Greg would be proud of whipping post. Keep the content coming bud.
Rhett, I don’t know why but you look very natural with that firebird. That guitar fits you very well. Like it’s part of your persona. Like Stevie and his strat. That bird makes your stage presence. The novo is great. But you and that bird really look like a team.
We'll be catching you in Raleigh. Can't wait.
The singing is coming along Rhett - keep at it. Love the Firebird!

My wife and I attended your show in Greenville, and I spoke to you briefly, Top Notch Show!!
Love them harmonies at around 1:40 ish, and that slide solo at 16:13 ish. Soulfully Well done!
I am stoked that you have the lead singer that you do. Have been a fan of Noah Guthrie for a good while. Seems like a good fit.
Covering "Whippin Post" is a very bold move, You sounded great!
Love that beautiful house where you are rehearsing!
Dude, I have a country gig this weekend and I’m not really a country guy. I just had rehearsal and when got home I saw you posted this vid. Crazy!
It's like I'm driving a stick shift - perfect
This was awesome 😀 Loved the slide solo, and the live filming was killer.
As a Texan native, I very much salute you for this one! I would love to see you guys come to Texas one day
Floore's Country Store in Helotes/San Antonio would be a perfect venue for them there.
@@raleighdentcompany Ahh San Antonio is my hometown. Would love to see them come here to a venue like that!
@@RC32Smiths01 Awesome. I lived in SATX for about 6 years. Good times down there! I really miss it sometimes.
@@raleighdentcompany Awesome man! I've lived here all my life
Amazing video, really better than most tv shows nowadays. Twenty minutes flew by!

The Firebird is too cool....I could get hammered in that place. It looks fun.
The "Whipping Post" sounded tight!
Never been a fan of country & western, but I really do love how You guys sound. :)
Loving the Backstage Journals, Rhett! Keep 'em coming'! Oh and Noah got a Novo?! Cool!
Your best video IMO it feels that you have found yourself here, feels great. Amazing tasty playing Sir.
Tottaly agree, and I have seen them all.
A honky tonk is a juke joint, bar, club or tavern that consistently hosts live country music and southern rock performances.
That's it !!
I like and enjoy what I hear from you guys !
That’s hilarious! That’s my drum kit beside your rig at Coyote Joe’s. I was the house drummer there from 2014-early 2021
My favorite backstage journal so far. Man I love some good pedal steel playing.
Great cover of "Whipping Post" - right up there with Zappa's iconic cover.
Shut up and play yer cover
That stacked thirds harmony sounded pretty clean. Nice work gentlemen.
10:05 Whippin Post is such a great song! I just cant stop listening to it!
That Firebird sounds fantastic. Loved the clip of whipping post too. 🤘🏼
Yo, that Hell or High Water solo with the Firebird is 💯💯💯
That Firebird was singin' !! Can't wait to see you guys in Columbia.
Beautiful music guys.
Thanks for sharing
Ya'll sound great Rhett. Nice playing and vocals. Great sound. If it feels good, then it is good, play it Brothers!
very nice slide solo @ 16 min and great lil follow up solo before you went back , nice stuff man
