Guitar Lesson: How To Play Tom Sawyer by Rush - Campfire Edition

[@3rushme]

I play most of my songs alone, so I really love your campfire version lessons. Keep them coming.

[@RyanLendt]

thanks rush

[@Ratchman_5000]

I'll never forget my roommate in art school was the biggest rush fan and I was more into rap music at the time (it was the 90's and rap was way better than today). If he could see me learning this, he'd probably pass out! Thanks for rhis!

[@RyanLendt]

haha! send him a vid once you've mastered it!

[@nickcds3419]

Nice one Ryan. RIP to one of the absolute greats.

[@RyanLendt]

one of the greats indeed.

[@kvstrickland]

No one would of imagined this acoustic version was possible.... you damn guitar wizard !!

[@RyanLendt]

john lennon might have imagined it. ha. haha. ugh....

[@KowboyUSA]

Cool lesson. Never imagined this one could possibly be played on an acoustic!

[@RyanLendt]

I'm still not terribly convinced ;)

[@jimst3r1]

Ryan this is so awesome thanks for this lesson! I’m really devastated about the news of Neil’s death. My father was a huge fan and got me into them. I was in awe of his drum playing! Definitely going to learn this one!

[@RyanLendt]

best of luck with this Stelios - great to hear from you :)

[@ozuidema]

Thanks, very nice and pleasantly surprising version.

[@RyanLendt]

I'm glad you enjoyed that Prog thank you :)

[@AmrZdad]

Love this! , been struggling with the Electric version.. but cant wait to get going on this with my acoustic.. thanks for doing this Ryan.. Rest in Power Neil

[@RyanLendt]

thank you and good luck Mike :) Rest in Power Neil.

[@michaelmackenzie2569]

Thanks Ryan. A fitting tribute to one of Canada’s greatest treasures.

[@RyanLendt]

thank you MM :)

[@klohr26]

Fitting tribute. Looking forward to adding this one to the library. btw 3/27/20 can hardly wait.

[@RyanLendt]

indeed this is the season to take up meditation!

[@chrismarle959]

I think your channel will be the epicentre of all Gigaton related excitement!!!! It’s coming out 2 days before my b.day which is actually a bummer cos I’ll have to wait 2 days to listen to it as my wife will defo be getting it for me... Nice little campfire this one btw :)

[@RyanLendt]

I'm gonna stop the presses and do everything I can to figure them out ASAP! happy birthday to you then :)

[@kvstrickland]

Yerrrr darn right :-)

[@pedrohenriquepinheiro9131]

[@brooklynwright744]

Groovy translation of this tune on your acoustic, Ryan 😊

[@RyanLendt]

thanks so much B. I'm still crying though cause i haven't got that email yet...

[@brooklynwright744]

Patience, grasshopper :( you'll be seeing it this weekend when I get me the green. I blame capitalism. In the meantime I'm building a moat for our tears ❤😂

[@joeybusnardo5866]

A farewell to a king. R.I.P. Neil. I'll never get over this horrible news.

[@RyanLendt]

hugs Joey :(

[@solonbarcelos1805]

Hey! I just want to say thank you for your lessons. I finally can play Man of The Hour, from Pearl Jam, thanks to you. Greetings from Brazil!

[@RyanLendt]

that's what I like to hear Solon - congratulations and thanks for the shout!

[@pedrohenriquepinheiro9131]

Outro brasileiro por aqui ! Seja bem vindo!!

[@billc5433]

Just discovered your channel, I've got a long ways to go, but thanks for having so many great songs to play along with and set as goal post.

[@RyanLendt]

good luck on your journey Bill

[@steelman774]

Excellent translation! You make me want to take my DadStrums from the UltimateGuitar app and build up to a full content KZbin channel. You, my StrummyChord-RingyOutty Brotha, have inspired me. Maybe I’ll even do it one day. In the mean time... Keep up the great work!

[@RyanLendt]

thanks so much SM! in the meantime, keep up the DadSTrums :P

[@nickayres5780]

Ryan can not wait for the new Pearl tour and album!!!!! Are you planning on going ?

[@RyanLendt]

neither can I!! I'm going to strive for two shows in 2020, but which leg(s) I do not know.

[@matthicks1129]

Was interested in what Tom Sawyer campfire would sound like and was not disappointed.

[@RyanLendt]

I'm certainly very glad to hear that RB thank you :)

[@alanmcclelland5245]

Just found your channel Ryan via Crackerman thank you for that (subed immediately). Long live rock I love it every night.

[@RyanLendt]

greetings Alan and welcome to the partyu!

[@benjaminhorton8013]

Great lesson on a classic tune, RIP Mr. Peart. On a lighter note ... NEW PEARL JAM MUSIC SOON!!! GIGATON!!

[@RyanLendt]

I enjoy the balanced nature of this comment :)

[@shakyhandpictures2185]

Haven’t sub’d to a lesson channel in a while, watched a few and decided to join up! I guess the only thing I’d think you’re missing, and remember opinions are like assholes, everyone has one, is to play the tune up from once through. Maybe I’m just use to that with the guys I learn from? Great quick tutorials, looking forward to checking more out! Thank you!

[@RyanLendt]

haha cheers and welcome new friend :)

[@kalixdm2859]

Thanks man... great video!!!

[@RyanLendt]

thanks KDM!

YOURE THE man Ryan but only on Tuesdays

[@RyanLendt]

[@kurthodge12]

Very nice very nice

[@RyanLendt]

thank thank you you :)

[@bilams]

Right as I got the notification for Gigaton, I thought about how happy Ryan was going to be.

[@RyanLendt]

i've got you right where i want you ;) haha thanks for thinking of me BIL - you're right, I'm very very very very very very happy about this news.

[@jasonkeith9317]

RIP Neil. Gone but not forgotten.

[@RyanLendt]

never forgotten

[@matthewbeattie7443]

Hey man, I started playing guitar just over a year ago and recently found your channel. I love the content, especially your Alice in Chains lessons, so far from your videos I've learnt: Nutshell Would? Over now Rooster Sludge factory and many more. I looked through all your videos and couldn't find a lesson on Frogs by AiC and was wondering that if you had the time would you be able to do a lesson on it? Thanks a lot, keep the videos coming! 😎👍

[@RyanLendt]

this is fantastic, congratulations on getting those under your belt Matthew! Frogs is definitely going to happen someday - thanks for being here :)

[@matthewbeattie7443]

@@RyanLendt Thanks Ryan! Looking forward to it 🙂

[@brinkybrinkz]

Hi Ryan was wondering if you could do a lesson on The Lemonheads with Juliana Hatfield, My Drug Buddy? There are no good lessons out there and many different options of playing the song. I always wanted to learn how to play it the right way and I know your the man with the master plan.

[@RyanLendt]

thanks for the request BB :) actually I've looked into this one and had the same confusion you had - not made any easier by the fact that Evan plays it in some very confusing way where the chords are simple in theory... more research needs to be done... thank you for the nudge

[@brinkybrinkz]

@@RyanLendt Thanks Ryan! I know everyone including Even seems to play it different on every YT video.

[@shawntofilau8399]

Dude you rule that’s way cool

thanks so much Shawn :)

What did the drummer name his twin sons? Tom Tom

[@RyanLendt]

i'm imagining how funny it would be if one named one's twin children the same name... you could get them crossed up without ever having to fess up to it
