[@mariogutierrez2965]

It would be a dream to watch Nick or Jacob, or both at the smell. Its rheir favorite venue and they always make it special 🥺

[@hmmmidunno]

The first song gives me a bit of a Cindy Lee vibe. I'm loving it. Always love the sound of his guitar.

[@surgeeyo.]

if i could have one wish ever it would be to be granted the knowledge of how nick played become the warm jets during this show, whatever weird fuckin tuning and chords he played this show in and the improv at the end is something I can only dream of achieving

[@bstytc]

sorry for the late reply BUT i think i sort of got it. the dissonant yet kind of beautiful sound is not from the chords but mostly the tuning. he's kind of fashionably out of tune and there's not really a way to describe it so just eeeever so slightly tune all of your strings down until it sounds right. not quite a half step down but around there. the first chord he plays is a regular open E major, then the second chord is an open Amaj7, the third is a G#m played as a barre chord on the 4th fret, and the last one is a regular open A major. for the E major and A major, slowly strum all the strings but the first one, for Amaj7 and G#m strum all the strings. the solo part is based around the C# pentatonic minor scale which sounds complicated as crap but is pretty simple, just look up how to play it and practice it a bit. i don't know where on the fretboard he plays it but i play it at the 6th position because it's the simplest. after you got the scale down you can just figure out the solo by ear, playing notes inside that scale. same goes for the improv at the end, don't be afraid to go up to the first string cause he does!

[@bstytc]

also i'm not entirely sure about the Amaj7, it sounds more dissonant in the video. maybe it's an augmented or sus chord.

30:43 Anymore hits so good live. Way better than the recording.

[@futileOpera]

this version of here’s to the afterlife is always so fucking funny to me because i’ve seen other recordings where he falls into the crowd and everyone helps him up and asks if he’s okay but these dudes all look soo confused. they’re all standing around him like “wtf is this kid doing”

[@dae1en]

Hey Brandon, did you ever find that video you had backed up of “You Broke My Heart” live? :)

Talvez seja a vontade de ter algo que eu sei que não vai durar Ter alguém que eu sei que não vai durar Ter qualquer coisa que eu sei que vai me afetar Talvez eu precise aprender a não me apegar ao calor dos momentos Não me apegar a qualquer momento Não me apegar a ninguém Apenas, não me apegar a nada Não me apegar nem a mim mesmo Porque eu sei que quando vier alguém que eu sei que vai embora, eu vou me apegar, e vou me machucar, e vou me desacostumar Talvez eu deva aprender a lidar com tudo isso Talvez Eu nao sei Talvez eu não precise de mais nada
