Bob Seger - Like A Rock (Live)

Halifax Metro Centre, Halifax, NS. November 24, 2014.

[@brandonlee9238]

Remember when this was the Chevrolet commercial theme song. The anthem that sold more Chevy trucks than the dealerships.

[@bidensclueless7353]

The older you get, the more meaningful this song is.

[@jakealvin7049]

You probably dont care but if you are bored like me during the covid times you can stream pretty much all the new movies and series on instaflixxer. Have been binge watching with my girlfriend during the lockdown =)

[@warrenriley4177]

@Jake Alvin definitely, have been using instaflixxer for since december myself =)

[@seenonyoutube7856]

This song is a timeless masterpiece. Bob and all of us here will be gone someday, but this song is immortal. 10,000 years from now men will hear Bob sing it and they too will remember when they were "like a rock." I'm 67 now and boy, those years can really kick your ass.

[@fabriziotomasoni2037]

Absolutely right 👍👍

[@serge0812]

What a powerful song. Unfortunately you have to grow old to totally understand it

[@frankrsalatino5845]

So true

[@billaliff4281]

Agreed. I was 20 when it came out and at 53 now I remember those days when I felt nothing could touch me, but how much I've grown since then. Warts and all...🐎🎸🎼🎶

[@OverTheSun41]

What chaps my ass about the whole thing is that when you finally do start to get a little age on you...very few people in the “public domain” understand you and you fade into obscurity because you are either old and ugly or just flat out depressing...which I guess could be all one big ball of shit.

[@judybrodowski4753]

Yup!!

[@THElaulauman]

@@OverTheSun41 you hang in there anyway, man.

[@micheleerwin2848]

I've been listening to Bob Seger since the 70's. I was lucky to see face the promise. I'm too old for live shows now. Too many steps, but I have lots of t shirts and great memories of the old days. Neil Young, Bob Seger, Bob Dylan, Jackson Browne, Tom Petty, The who, the stones, peace Sunday, further festival, CSN, and so many more. That crap they call music today is just hideous noise!

Agree- again!!!!

​@@richardrogers3110ciao Richard! 🙋‍♀️😍😘💘🍀

[@merijnvanschaik4989]

Agreed. This album came out in1986 (?). In summer of 86 in Europe. I did get the album then. I did like this song as one of the best of the album, I was 17 yo, just 6 months shy of 18. Now not 20 years but 35 years have passed. I hear this song and it fills me with emotion due to nostalgia as the song hits me in the face with what Bob is singing. My older brother got me into Bob Seger in the 80's. Later periods of listening to Bob Seger alternated between Dire Straits / Claption / Tom Petty. Still Bob Seger always comes back!! ;-)

I remember being a Rock. 1968 April Vietnam and fought a battle with Army's 4th infantry at a place called Chu Moore mountain. All of us at Chu Moore were Rocks. Big ass battle and today I am 77 years old and wonder if our country is going to hold together. America we have to become Rocks to keep this great country.

[@timshawguitar]

Greatest slide guitar solo of all time

[@BladeJones]

An all-time epic guitar solo right up there with Pink Floyd Comfortably Numb! I love how he replicated the original recording, note for note. There's no other way to approach this song. The crowd sure appreciated it.

[@jeffdubuque3755]

duane allman statesboro blues is the greatest imo., this a close second.

[@gregscupholm254]

It came out when I was a teen. I was, well, an idiot kid like many, and dismissed this song , though I loved Seger. Almost 40 yrs later, I'm a helluva lot older and TOTALLY can relate to this gem. Time passed will give you sore joints, but also wise perspective and deep appreciation for the good things in life.

[@ohwowthatsgood]

I bought a fleet of Silverados because of Seger. Best decision I ever made.

[@donaldscott3085]

The emotions pour out of this song, lyrics, tempo, and arguably the greatest guitar solo ever.

[@jccook5353]

Back in 1978 I was 21 years old living in New Castle, PA outside of Pittsburgh. Attending Penn State and working hard ass jobs in the mills in my home town in the summer and fall. I worked a hard job 7 days a week pushing big bundles of tangled metal chip balls down a chute so the crusher could beat them into small chips and conveyor them up into a rail car. We filled 2 rail cars a week. Barry and me worked a sold 7 hours a day pushing and pulling chips in the hot humid summer. Weighed 185 lbs and wore 32 waist jeans. Took home almost $375/wk in 1978 (when a six of Michelob was $2.25 and a ticket to see Pure Prairie League, The Outlaws, and The Eagles at the Tomorrow Club in Yougstown for less than $10). Had a 1971 Ford Econoline van that we took hill climbing into the quarries and skinny dipped with the girls in the evening drinking beer and carrying on. Seeger Live Bullet always playing in the cassette deck with a power amp. Went back to PSU hard as a f'n rock every year with a full bank account. Partied like a maniac for 6-9 months and worked in the mills again the next summer. Did it for 5 years until I graduated. I am 63 now. Once when I told this story my still hot wife said "You act like those were the best days of your life". I told her they were. She got pissed and never said that again. Those times were great and rank up there with the best. Rock on kids. Rock on. Study hard. Work hard. Play hard. Be fair. Be kind. And stick up for others that can't stick up for themselves. Time flies by. Live life and have no regrets.

[@guitarkis4969]

When so many guitar players try to impress with fast solos, this song shows that the perfect choice of notes, played with feeling reaches more people than a crazy shred ever will. Nice slide playing with great tone, I love it.

[@robwilliams239]

Amen! That’s what makes music go great.

[@MichaelABusta]

Ive currently played guitar for 22 years, started wanting to shred and learned it well but then you realize it gets boring after a while and loose connection with feel, so I then slowed down getting into guitar players like mark knopler, david gilmour, Steve clark, brian may, tom scholz and few others and realize how much more of a connection you feel with your soul.

[@keokiainokea1115]

This song made me buy my first BRAND NEW SUV back in 87, 1987 S-10 Blazer😄

[@johanneslee254]

Personally, one of my favourite solo’s of all time hands down

Bob is really a great artist. The man on the Les Paul is great too. The band is great. I'm 63 (2020) and saw Bob in 1978 in Dallas. Back then a ticket was about $10 on average for any concert. The arena was filled with smoke and the girls were skinny and pretty. I had my girl too. We were all like rocks.

[@dianneedwards600]

I saw Bob in 1978 too. It was in Toronto at Maple Leaf Gardens. I was 17. Could of heard a pin drop when he sang turn the page amoungst the bic lighters lit and smell of weed. Lol.

In my opinion Bob's best work and the greatest slide solo ever glad to see every guitarist that plays this song still copies the Great Rick Vito's slide solo Rick with the one take solo

[@abethomas5103]

Bob Seger WOW ! Still...... I was 13yrs old and my sis and her husband and about 10 or so other friends had tix to his concert. I was being baby sitted so their only option was to take me along... It would be my 1st concert. The memories are still vivid. Needless to say he's still my favorite singer songwriter. I'm 53 yrs now. He toured again about 8 yrs ago here in B'ham. Grandkids came first and I had to miss it. My heart broke. I see myself in so much of his music and lyrics. Like A Rock I identify with most now. I love me some Bob Seger. It's always my cleaning music. And I always end up dancing. 😏

[@peachqtpi]

Makes me wish I had stuck to my lessons and learned to play. 😍

[@markj2838]

@Tom Faigle oh yes... Rick Vito did the original in 86. This guy is simply amazing...

[@billgotbass1]

I’ve been playing guitar for 35 years semi professionally but just started seriously playing slide only a couple years ago. I practice only slide guitar at least 4-5 hours a day and am starting to see it pay off, although I still have a lot to learn. Much as I love Segar, this song never hooked me until I actually listened hard to Vito’s solos, especially the last one. Took forever but now I can play it pretty decently. Not as good as this guy, but not too bad But Rick Vito’s original version is honestly so smooth, passionate and moving that nothing compares. Rick should get free corvettes for life. Those commercials might’ve made Bob a fortune but they kinda made that solo so well known that people may not realize just how incredible it really is.

[@jb-ik8sj]

Mine too. I spent 6 months learning just the first solo. Without a slide

[@jb-ik8sj]

@@markj2838 Thank you. Rick Veto is a slide master and i would of thought it be him on stage. This guy is spot on that lead👍👍
