This is seriously a completely flawless performance. I actually like it better than the album version in many ways.

This whole show... minor fuck ups or not... His voice was seriously more on point than any of his other live recordings, ever. I watch these all the time mainly for his voice. He LOOKS strong as can be too... I'm sure this is a false claim. Maybe not sober, but very strong

@hillman175 freebird is a song by lynyrd skynrd, and it is, for whatever reason, kind of a concert stigma to shout it out as a song request, regardless of genre or performer. i don't know why it's like that but it is. of course, in this case, it's a joke from the fan, and elliott responds with the offhand "fuckin' freebird..." because he's taken back by the fact that someone said it at his show.

Popularly requested song of pretty much any band ever that was written by Lynyrd Skynyrd.

I can’t believe some drunk idiot yelled out freebird while Elliott Smith was starting the last song of his set 😔

Kind of legendary actually if he wasn’t being serious. Still a dick move though

Fan yelled Freebird which is a famous song from Lynyrd Skynyrd. I guess Elliot doesnt like Freebird or that band

Wait this song is in open C tuning.. which means he probably converted all of his songs to open C just for this gig? Fuck. *quits music*

Joey Taylor Nah, he just tunes his guitar between songs.
@teh_hunterer7 жыл бұрын
No he doesn't transpose things through different keys and tunings at all. He plays songs in the keys and tunings he wrote and recorded them in. He has his guitar tuned two semitones down most of the time, and uses a capo to get up to standard and other keys if he needs to. He will also drop the two E strings down two semitones for some songs (Satellite, Roman Candle etc). And he will go down to open C tuning for some songs (Independence Day, See You Later etc). When he played live he would just change his guitar tuning between songs if the next song was in a different tuning.

Lol dude, chill out. No need to get testy just because you have nothing useful to offer to the conversation. Have fun being difficult. I'm sure it's working out great for you.

"Freebird" - some guy who thought he was really funny. That song sucks, and people who yell it are generally the types who have the personality of warm beer.

Does anyone know in which way(s) elliott was in to the occult. To me it seems he obviously was. He seems to have believed in a type of pre-ordained destiny, especially for himself.
