I'm The One - You won't find a better cover than this one

**Double Down** · 09.11.06, 12:58 PM

Holy shit, check out this dude playing I'm The One. This is the best cover of this tune ON GUITAR I've ever come across. The guy's tone is dead-on and he nails every note, dive bomb, and tap. Phenomenal job.

Get a load of the crowd...hilarious! Here's this band hammering out classic VH and the crowd looks to be 65 years old. Lol... Looks like a church group or something.

Yeah, the singing is nothing to write home about but you gotta give it up to that guy on guitar. Awesome job.

I agree. Vocals are horrid.

Guitar is so-so.

I like the retirement home setting though !!!

Guitar is so-so? Please tell me you're joking.

Nobody, but NOBODY...

rocks the 'Shady Acres Retirement Villa' like VH cover band.

Stellar guitar playing. But where THE HELL is that gig taking place? I love the old fuck in the front-right in front of the amps-you know he's getting blasted and he just sits there like he's waiting for a bus. Priceless!

Guitar is definately not "so-so" the dude rips his ax off, great tone great clarity and all. Abit sad all he ended up being in is a cover band though.

Great guitar work, dead on.
The singer looked like Sebastian Bach with alot less testosterone.
The drummer looked like a reject from LOVERBOY.
and the bassist looked like (God rest his sole) the Croc Hunter.

I'm with the concensus here, great guitar work, shitty vocals.

**Foamfoot** · 09.20.06, 09:34 PM

Smokin' guitar player. Dead on accurate. I'm jealous!!!!!!!!!

**Ashe** · 09.25.06, 01:04 AM

No way, man. True, the singer was bad, but that drummer was the gayest dude on that video.

**the_jake5150** · 09.25.06, 01:11 AM

Cover is always a cover and most of times it isin't as good as the original one.

Here's a link that tells what his guitar rig is:

What the hell was that? That was odd. I don't get it. Were they rockin' a retirement community? Weird. Guitarist was good. The rest of the band shit the bed on that one.
