Bonus Mosh Pt. II - (Guitar & Vocals Playthrough) Fred Mascherino

[@brockweaver346]

The way him and Adam sang together was just a moment of pure magic in time

[@David-uc6sg]

Adam/Fred is peak TBS.

[@thesolongvinylsofficial6939]

Your ability to play lead guitar flawlessly and sing simultaneously Is superhuman

[@TheColorFred]

Thanks! You are too kind!!

I miss Fred's voice and Adam's voice singing together. 😢

They were both so in sync , they need to do a reunion show with all the old members just for fun ! XD

[@austinalexander8457]

@@nitsuj182, not to rain on your parade, but, I don't think it'll happen. Apparently, Fred and the rest of TBS are on better terms than what they were. But, Fred probably doesn't want to play with them anymore. Not that I can speak for him

[@ILOVEGACHAEDITS]

No Use For A Name Seriously. Being able to communicate with him this easy is like being able to talk to Beyoncé for the fans like me

[@NoUseForAName0626]

@@TheBionicleRocks yes exactly!! Couldn't tell you how many times I've asked other musicians in big bands questions like on twitter, like what's a certain lyric or what guitar chord are you playing at this specific part.. and never get a response. 🤣 But I guess to be fair they don't owe me a response. Lol obviously they get bombarded with questions and comments all the time. So for Fred to take the time and genuinely have interest doing so.. it's super cool of him.

[@RichmondVillanueva]

That puts the whole John vs Fred debate to rest. Fred is clearly the clearest winner.

[@shadesofmalice98]

Hahaha why is that? Both are ok

[@splinter3734]

The real debate is Fazzi vs Fred, John's vocals sounds crap.

[@kurdtjohn]

John just phones the vocals in on Fred/Matt Rubano-era songs.

[@Mike-vq8kf]

Wow Fred... Phenomenal. It's like time hasn't passed at all. First time I saw you live was w/ Angels and Airwaves in SD in the summer of 06'. I love these play throughs you're doing. It also shows/reminds the average listener how much is going on in the song at your level when you're playing it live.

That tour was the beginning of my friendship with Tom! Thanks for your appreciation and for being here all these years later.

This is the music that shaped my music taste while being a teenager. I'm now 32 still listening. It wasn't a phaser.

[@TheColorFred]

I won't letcha down! 2020 is about to turn around. Thanks man!!!

[@charlesgunn2696]

Just as flawless as usual! I've always been a huge TBS fan, so much so that I've learned every song on bass and some on guitar, from Tell All Your Friends to some of the self-titled album, anyways. Anyways, TBS was something VERY special when you were a part of it. Nothing against John Nolan, I think he is an excellent guitarist and songwriter with lovely vocals but it just isn't the same.

[@lowprofile5325]

Fred and adams voice has a good chemistry

[@troyfriedman3383]

Fred, as someone who went to a lot of shows in high school…seeing you with TBS live in the prime days was so intense and amazing live the shows were so exclusive and meaningful as if we are all a part of something. So Many good shows yal put on for us!!!

[@ChanChan-ey4ei]

I’m tellin you. When Fred left TBS, the rock left with him. The power TBS used to have and head banging all went away. Had to say this. Super amazing vocals and still one of my favorites

[@robjgolde3221]

The guitar work in this song is so under-rated within TBS’ catalog. You and Eddie really made something special happen in this song especially considering it was the first song you all wrote together. Would you be able to do a play through of “Lullaby” or “Little Devotional”? I’ve never been able to get that harmonized lead part down, and I’d love to see if broken down somehow.

[@TheColorFred]

Thank you so much. At that time, we really had something to prove.

[@millerfisherman1989]

Thank you Fred...I just finished two long stressful shifts at the hospital and listening to this and seeing you play just made my day and transported me back to many great memories of road tripping in Arizona during my undergrad years in premed. One of my favorite albums of all time, whenever I listen to it I always (try to!) sing your parts, I always thought you had the perfect blend of talent and emotion....thank you again.

[@TheColorFred]

I really appreciate that. Growing up, I practiced alot and was taught to use proper technique but as I got more into punk, I wanted rough edges on my playing so I tried to keep that balance. Thanks for noticing!

[@danielmoraine6755]

Double-Drop-D! Of course! Thank you for unlocking the secrets to playing one of my very favorite TBS songs. I know leaving TBS was the right decision for you and you seem happy, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't wish there was an alternate timeline where you were still making music with them. Those albums are their best work.

[@TheColorFred]

Thank you Daniel! I appreciate your comment.

[@jlwalker92]

I would love to see you play I Am Fred Astaire. The back and forth vocals are just so much fun.

[@TheColorFred]

Yeah, true. Fun song to play. Thanks for writing

[@TheColorFred]

Thanks so much for checking this out! I miss Alb-Q for sure

[@eric_welch]

When I listened to this when it first came out I never thought there'd be a platform where I could directly communicate with members of that band!!!!!!! You inspired me to pick up a guitar and write my own music ...thank you for everything you've done!!

[@vanatongkhounsombath6119]

Fred Mascherino's still the best co-vocalist TBS ever had, thanks for the video! Guitar parts on this song are so underrated.

[@scottdulak4241]

Oh my god. Watching how good this is, and seeing the TBS plaque on the wall, just makes me think how F’ing awesome it would be if fred went back to the band since eddies guitar spot is open. Fred really elevated TBS with his guitar work. I can fee the energy through the screen and it takes me back to a mosh pit in 2006. I enjoy John for sure i just feel that Fred boosted them so much and i truly think if there was any way having them both in the band that there would be some sick guitar work on future albums. FRED THIS IS SO GOOD THANKS FOR POSTING!

This is probably my favorite Taking Back Sunday song. I love everything about it. Crunchy rhythm. Basically a sick solo throughout the verses. Back and forth vocals. Drums on point as always. Amazing finale. And of course Fred still sounds amazing. I feel absolutely blessed that I saw TBS on the Louder Now tour. I saw them play a long set at the Great Allentown fair like 15 years ago when MCR canceled and it was a spiritual experience. WYWTB and Louder Now are masterpieces. The Louder Now Parttwo recordings are also so good, but I do get just a touch of sadness when I hear the drums from Bonus Mosh pt 2 at the end of What's it Feel Like to be a Ghost. I wish the whole set was recorded and/or released.
