OMG! Muito bom o vídeo, explicou muito bem todo o processo envolvido por trás de uma performance pra quem é mais leigo e a importância da prática. PRACTICE!

Same here Davie, as a bassist and guitarist (pls don’t kill me, i didnt know what bass was before i played guitar) I looked back at my first live performance and cringed. Although I had already played guitar for 2 yrs and was actually pretty experienced, i was sooo nervous beforehand that I literally barfed not 5 mins before I went on, and on the first song (a guitar solo) I absolutely burned. The notes were played like 3 times too fast (due to my nervousness) and I got off the click track pretty fast. It’s been a whole year since that terrible experience, and i feel like I’ve grown a huge amount (I also discovered bass in that time) from where I first was. I’ve gone from playing basic barre chords (and not being able to use a pick) to now playing stuff from João Gilberto, Jack Johnson, and other guitar greats. So, I will encourage all of the other slappers and pickers out there - although you may cringe at yourself now, just wait - the longer you play, the better you will get. Although you may not be able to master stuff from Paul McCartney or Davie Biale (hehehe) yet, just keep on learning. Good things come to those who wait 😁

Thank you so much for using my video!! I had so much fun at that concert, it was an honor watching you guys perform.

I was there at this concert and actually was glad to see you playing live. Did not thought nothing about imperfect playing, I was just too happy to see a bass focused concert before watching one of my favorite bands, Def Leppard, and way more happier that it was you (already was subscribed and since I knew you were playing I put on my schedule for this day).

I'm Brazilian and I'm following you since you have less than 1M subs. Nice job getting here, hope to see you getting 20M slappers.

Brazilian here, we love you Davie!!❤❤ Very Emotional Times

Sinta orgulho da sua evolução Davie, esperamos ver você novamente no Brasil um dia... a big SLAP for who you've become. ❤

Eu sinto que você se dedicou muito nos estudos sentado. E a pegada se torna outra tocando de pé!

I loved all your videos, but this is my favorite and will help other musicians to chill out. You are great!

Brasil begins with the letter B of BASS. Volte sempre precisamos de músicos como você.

I felt exactly the same in my first live concert. A pianist accompanied me and I studied the song over and over and I was happy just because I could play it technically perfect. A couple of days before the concert, she told me that I was playing it without any feeling, and I got really surprised and angry, I didn't believe that. I played that concert like a robot, but I didn't know it by that time. Nowdays, 20 years later, I totally understand what she said. I think that most of us just don't know how to properly perform at first, and we focus too much in technique and other stuff, but feeling it and enjoying it is a must.

@jbennett3578

Жыл бұрын

It's strange how that works. "Technically perfect" is perfect, but it doesn't sound as good as a performance with feeling, which I guess wouldn't be "technically perfect" although it might be "musically perfect". So you have to achieve two perfections to end up with one perfection that's more perfecter than the other two. Or something like that. It's all very complicated. 😵‍💫

Tbf, telling that someone a few days before a concert is kind of a shit move. Not that it was wrong, but at that point and with the available timeframe it will not really be possible to change that at all. Like if you would have had a deeper understanding of that you would not have made that mistake to begin with - so what did she expect to achieve? It does not really make a positive difference and is more likely to make someone more nervous and tense. Not that she should have kept quiet about it, constructive feedback is valuable after all, but she could have given you some more sublime pointers maybe. Often blows my mind how many people that work in positions that require cooperation lack so many basic social skills.

Super tough pill...ow to swallow when assessing yourself and admitting one's failures or faults. Good for you Davie for slapping yourself and getting it done right. I was a guitarist (slapp myself) until I damaged my neck and back in 2005. I couldn't feel anything in my fretting hand (left) and my fingers couldn't move quickly, so I stopped playing. Towards the end of last year, I finally got feeling back in my fretting hand. I picked up my Les Paul and forgot everything and sounded like poo poo. I have always wanted to play bass as well and have been to a lot of music stores, here in Japan, to check them out. I am afraid to plug in and try because I don't want to hurt the employees' ears (ah, good excuse). When I watch your videos, I always get a chuckle and some inspiration to finally go and get a bass or maybe a tuna.... *crickets*. I just have a problem finding the right beginner bass that will also be a great long-term friend like my Les Paul was/has been. Then I have to get the confidence to sound like caca at first and practice turning my sound into Pavarotti. I think this video has helped me take more steps (mentally) toward getting a bass and learning to slapp. The question I have: Which bass would be a great investment as a starter and go-to for many years (hopefully, since I am past 50 ha)? 🪗👋💚💯

I had been playing for myself for years when someone heard me and asked me to play live with their band. But I'd always played and even practiced with the band sitting down resting the "instrument that shall not be named" on my knee. During the first live performance, although it went well, I was constantly in my head because standing while playing added a whole new level of discomfort.

yea Im a grown man but my mom has always been really supportive of me lol and when i first started playing she wanted me to come over for Christmas and play some stuff for family and friends so i learned like 4 or 5 Christmas songs and had only been playing for a couple of months and thats when i found out playing standing vs sitting is hard so from then on out i only played standing still do when i practice i hardly ever sit now i learned it early

My first live performance was playing the national anthem on guitar for my high school graduation. I was super nervous and definitely botched a little bit of it but I'm definitely proud of that moment. The roaring crowd afterward was one of the greatest feelings of achievement I've experienced. Thankfully they recorded the whole thing so I can watch myself be awkward on stage for the first time over and over again.

I definitely respect the fact that you can look at past performances and see where you could've done better....and actually incorporate that in your growth. That was commendable. But to be real, i didn't really see anything wrong. Not trying to negate your learning or improving. You definitely grew a lot as a musician. But overall, at least to me, you did good. Video 1 (first hallelujah) was kinda fire, ngl, even with the nerves and "lack of emotion," because it had groove. Lol. Personally, I think that song depends on how you look at it. Admittedly, the second playthrough of hallelujah you did had more emotion behind it, which was one of the big things you felt you needed to address; that was great. But to me, the first one was passable. I was friggin' FLOORED by that performance, because you were doing harmony and melody at the same time! That was amazing! Video 3 (fretless) was also kinda fire too! You had some NICE bass chops on that one, fam. Now, I'm not a bass player (I do guitar, and I did drums before I took a hiatus), but I'd imagine that fretless is kinda hard to do. I don't think I'll ever play a fretless because I don't want to deal with that level of uncertainty, lol. I say all this to say that it was amazing doing all that you did on it. And the intonation.......it was a fretless in all fairness. Lol. 🤷🏾‍♂️ Tell me what it's like playing on a fretless if you can. Is there a trick to it? Should I play a fretless guitar? Gimme a reason. Lol. Good video as always.

I could feel two of the other band members enjoying my discomfort, but I just kept going and got in sync after a few more bars. We are all human, even Dave, so just do some more practice and go again. It's worth it. I've done a couple of thousand shows now that I wouldn't have done if I gave up back then.

There's a reason why the term "bedroom musician" was coined. Playing live is a whole different ball game. Keep going at it, but stay self-aware. Record yourselves, rehearse like you're actually playing live, always aim to entertain and make people feel what you want them to feel with your playing. Observe more experienced bands and apply what you're comfortable with. Embrace any cock ups when on stage, with experience you'll eventually learn how to correct/laugh at them on the fly. I spent years swinging between good and horrible shows, until a tour in Japan suddenly made everything clicked for me.

I feel like I go back and watch my old drumming videos and cringe, only because I see the growth I’ve made and consider my former self “not as good”. Davie looks back on his first performance with a criticizing attitude, which is to be expected, but I think he did an amazing job regardless. For anyone to put on a first show without missing a note and still leave space between the notes can say they did a good job. But being hard on himself to be expected, especially at such a professional level that Davie holds himself to. It’s true his confidence definitely brought a whole new level to his performance

I'm a pianist and in my first performance I clicked an effect button by mistake. I turned red as a tomato and was shocked for a moment but I had to finish the song so I deactivated the thing and finished. A year later I had another oportunity but this time everything went perfect. The whole place was filled with magic. I almost cried from happiness. That's why I can relate with everything Davie said. Never give up, guys, it's totally worth it.

The first time I performed live I played two songs (Devolva-me by Adriana Calcanhoto and Great Balls of Fire by Jerry Lee Lewis). I was extremely nervous, I was sweating profusely, my hands slid a couple of times due to the sweat, I missed a few notes, and I was dreading the moment when I'd make the first mistake, because at the time I would just freeze when I realized I had made a mistake. Still, looking back, it was a nice moment. I was playing with people who had a lot more experience than me and they were really supportive. I ended up playing quite a few more times and by the last couple of times I performed live, I'd be playing way harder songs, with confidence, and enjoying it to the fullest. That's just the way it goes! I had videos online of me playing simple songs on the bass and looking back at them I do cringe, but I also realize that that was then and now things are different. I could not have done then what I can do now and that's fine!

You know what is emotional? The most recent performance of the first song actually gave me goosebumps throughout. Emotions felt :o

Hallelujah by Leonard Cohen (most famously performed by Jeff Buckley)

Honestly if people pick apart every detail in a live performance, then they aren't really music lovers. They're just armchair music critics. I don't think that neither the first performance of Hallelujah, or the fretless noodling were necessarily bad at all. But it is great to see your humility and improvement since then. Thank you for inspiring all of us!

As a drummer my first performance was terrible but I managed to get through every problem. I played with another guy's drumset, the bass drum was sticky for some reason, so the beaters wont come back, solved it with some tape before each song. No carpet what so ever on the floor so it was "the night of the living bass drum" as it moved forward and away from me, solved it with some rope tied to my throne and to the bass drum. As a noobie playing double bass pedal i used a drop clutch to keep the hats closed, but accidentaly stepped into de hh pedal twice so they opened and was too loud, i didn't have the accuracy to close them back with the stick, so i had to lower my dynamics. Also broke many sticks, and had to reach for new ones with very bad placing for I didn't had a propper accesory to keep my sticks .... For me it was a nightmare, but then, to my surprise, people had a great time an my band members were happy, so I guess I did it pretty well 😅 Never give up, the show must go on, the people watching you deserve the best of you. If you have problems improvise and solve them the best you can, and think about them for the next time you perform. That's how it goes

Your best video, yet, Davie. Love the honesty. Keep on keeping on!!

It still felt very genuine to me. You may have been nervous but you were brave to stand on that stage by yourself and play such an emotional song in front of so many people.

Dang it “I just play in my bedroom…” 🤦‍♂️ 🤣 00:53

As you mentioned Bocchi the Rock with some pictures, there is a very important quote from the drunk bassist. "You are not in a combat with the people in front of you." and Bocchi realizes, that she "never had enemies here". I think this is a very important thing to mention, that the people aren't against there will at these events.

Man just after your Rio performance there was a Head'n'shoulders ad and I couldn't tell the difference. As a musician myself I can truly and deeply relate to the pain you're feeling at the very bottom of your soul. You're not alone, and there are many of us you can talk to. It's OK Davie504. You're a human after all. (Still this was hilarious).

I have my first live performance for bass today and I’m super nervous. The songs aren’t too hard but it’s the stage fright that might make me mess up. Much love to your work Davie ❤👌

Being nervous at a performance is a sign that you care about doing well, and avoiding that discomfort is a great motivator for being prepared. Not that preparing will necessarily eliminate stage fright conpletely, but the confidence of knowing you're ready helps. And performing in front of an audience takes practice just like the actual playing.

I already see that video that shows you in a Rock In Rio Concert, but never seen you talking about it. Come back to Brazil again!!

My first live gig (playing guitar I am ashamed to say), was in a pub in the UK. I was so nervous I kept accidentally turning down the volume knob on the guitar. This was probably a blessing for the audience as half the notes I was playing were wrong anyway. Like you, Davie504, I think I have come a long way since then - we all have to start somewhere!

My band and i had our very first performance yesterday and even though we were nervous, i'm still proud of us. Just as we all should be proud of ourselves when doing something that requires us to step out of our comfort zones. Therefore i am proud of myself and my band and every single one of you people who either were or are scared to perform live. I am proud of you and you can do it!

I love the bass man. SLAP! You're a great player my man. Don't be mad tho, just started playing the guitar. Wish I could play both.

Ah, that second version of Hallelujah - letting those notes hang like you are the edge of a precipice, just waiting to fall into the next note…slowly anticipating it hitting you, and then it does., lifting you back up. Very nice.

Davie, já está na hora de você mostrar o seu trabalho, fazendo mais apresentações ao vivo, criando músicas próprias, etc.

“My technique has not improved a lot since 6 years ago. I just grew as a musician.” Man - I needed to hear that. I had to drop piano lessons for now because of a change in my job. I can still grow as a musician. Thank you.

My first concert experience was as a vocalist in a terrible cover band that had a bizarrely diverse repertoire - I remember Greenday and shortly after Creedence Clearwater Revival, so you can see where that would lead (to nothing, of course). The guitarist's cousin had a band that we were always making fun of because they made music to play at tacky dances in the community. So out of nowhere in a great act of courage or dumbness (most likely), these guys invited us to open for their show, which we discovered would take place in the parking lot of a supermarket in a country town. We are talking about a country in Latin America, where I live. the band's bass had nowhere to plug his instrument so the feedback and amplifiers were the same for guitar and bass. vocals had no return. We got there and I had the worst vocal performance possible for a human being, while we were watched by two people who apparently enjoyed the sound, until later we realized that they were completely drunk and in no condition to understand anything in terms of music.

I wasn’t expecting this to be one of Davie’s most heartfelt and wholesome videos. But there it is. Nice.

It was very emotional indeed.

I feel you Davie. My first ever live performance was just frightening. Although the response from the small crowd was encouraging, I came away feeling very unsatisfied - innately knowing that 'vibe' was missing. It was only until I finally felt that comfort of being 'in the moment' when it all began to click.

You are awesome. Very inspiring. Supporting young players too. I really enjoy your content and I slapped the subscribe button too! Thank you for sharing with us!

I auditioned for a band at an open mic. The band leader Gary loved it and said everyone would know my name and I would be in magazines in the next 5 years. Then we did another open mic one week later and I totally sucked. Gary said "well I guess we know you can't play" and told me to get off the stage before we finished the first song. I went home and literally cried as soon as I walked through the door. I practiced very hard after that. 1 year later I tried again with a different band. I am now considered an "expert" in my new band, a "hot-shot" if you will, and even though my skill has not improved much, I am better because I practice all the time and I play with confidence. Thank you Davie504. I know exactly what you are saying!

I'm Brazilian and I really loved your performance and I wish I could have watched it, I follow your channel and it's been improving for a long time. I hope it makes a lot of progress.

Um salve aqui do Brasil! E não achei que tenha sido uma performance tão sofrível assim. Acredite: neste festival tem coisas bem piores! kkkkk Translate: A hail here from Brazil! And I didn't think it was such a terrible performance. Believe me: this festival has much worse things! hahahaha

My consacrated 😂

You're pretty good, a professional bass player, keep it up and come back to Brazil💪♥️🇧🇷

🙋Hi Davie504, As a Brazilian I'm very amazed that you went to Brazil to peform in Rock in Rio. I'm autistic and I started to play bass about a year ago, I admire you a lot. I have a channel on KZread called Derik CS and I do song covers there. Thank you for existing because I'm very inspired by you 🤗

Muito legal ver o arco de redenção do Davie5O4, mal posso esperar pela próxima temporada 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

My first live performance was playing the six string bass with a band sweet child o mine the intro and first two solos, was really nervous, my hands were trembling, but the feeling of being on stage with everyone's instruments blasting was awesome, maybe someday I will also play the final solo

okay why did you come to Brazil without telling me before? i can't sleep anymore thinking i could've seen that live and did not, fr, i thought we where friends

Jack Bruce was playing Royal Albert Hall at 24 years old with The Cream. 'Those Were the Days.'

Eu achando que iria estar cheio de brasileiros nos comentários... Mas sabe q nóis te adora né cara?

Brasillllllll😂

I'm glad I got to see your process. There's certainly people who are better at improvising or at playing compositions after practice, and there's nothing wrong with it. Tim Henson himself, from Polyphia, usually writes complex guitar riffs, so when you see an improvisation, you don't really get to see the same complexity, which of course doesn't mean he's faking it. Thanks for the video, Davie, you rock :D

I'm someone who didn't exactly bomb my first performance, but didn't exactly crush it either. I was focused on everything except the performance. I really appreciate hearing this from you! I'm going to get back up on that bike and take another ride. 🙃

First experience performing was infront my tafe class, last minute our singer had glandular fever so I decided to sing as well as play bass. I look back on it and yeah it’s rough but that was a massive moment for me

Drummer here, the first concert I played I practiced for it a LOT, by myself and with my band. But even so, the night of the concert I was so nervous that minutes before going on stage I drew complete blank and forgot our entire set and how to play everything. I quickly huddled into some corner of back stage, put in my ear pods, and tried to listen to all the songs we were going to perform. Once I got on stage and started I felt more comfortable but I was so so tense for the whole performance. I survived tho 😅

I really appreciate this video. One of the first musical performances I ever did was with my school pipe band at a local schools competition. I didn’t strike up properly and my bass drone started double toning - basically oscillating rapidly between two pitches. It tanked any chance we had of winning, and I felt like I completely let my band down. More than 10 years later, I still cringe thinking about it.

I was the bassist and singer in my band in high school. Our first "real" gig was in Newark, New Jersey and I think I counted 11 people in the audience. No one clapped after any of our songs - they were waiting for the bands to come after us. We still made it through the whole set, somehow. I honestly still have PTSD about that gig. But a couple months later, we played in front of about 1,000 people opening for the thrash band M.O.D. and the crowd loved us. So I felt better.

solo bass to hallejuah is LULs for days but good on you to show us that. XD I loved it!

Really proud of you, dave. Only who felt that things, at least once in life, know how hard is. Happy to see you well and inspiring people to keep going :D

Mano do céu! Muito bom esse vídeo. Valeu David!

I was so terrified playing live the first time, I was shaking nearly uncontrollably. Put an extreme introvert in front of a crowd of people actively analyzing him... no stress.

[Not Brazilian] Thanks for the pop-ups that allow me to understand the words strung together into sentences. I was on the edge of my figurative seat watching to the solo

Hallelujah is one of my favorite songs, and you did great, even when you were nervous. It just shows how dynamic of an artist you are. You can play anything! Bass on.
