Thank you so much, Michael. This is truly surreal. I appreciate all of the kind words pouring out in the comments. This is super special. For anyone looking for it, this song is available on all streaming services! Thank you guys so much

[@Guitargate]

My pleasure sir!

[@kubaberry5178]

Great song Matt! I loved it!

[@vandyman9957]

Matt... this is exactly what our community needed today - thank you! Our hearts are with your family and the journey of your shoes. Cheers Matt - thank you Michael for being you and sharing this

[@mrjamba4368]

Very very moving song. So glad I listened. Great work, Matt!

[@brileystewart]

loved it man, for real

[@katharinepittman5533]

Michael, son, I am old enough to be your grandmother. I have never played guitar in my life. Why do I watch your postings just about every night?To watch the genuine authentic emotion played out on your face as you watch others create their music and because it is all displayed with an integrity and respect and delight that is missing in our world. To watch you hold your little baby boy, to watch the face of one of your older sons, to hear the voice of your wife exasperated - this is REAL life. Not glamored up for your viewers, but revealing life as it is being lived out in real time. You are an AMAZING teacher, not just of guitar, but of life, holding as steady as you can with many demands on you. It sounds often as if you have come a long way through some hard stuff, but NONE of it has been wasted as you are a dear reminder of perseverance and focus and hard work. God bless you and your family.

[@DHClapp]

Katharine, I'm old enough to be your grandson, and would be honored if I was. Thanks for taking the time to tell Mr. Palmisano exactly what it is that he's doing for the world.

[@brackishcycles]

We need more people like you, as well, Katharine.

[@ziggylayneable]

I'm 47 my grandpop is 92 and he is the best man I have ever met on this planet morally uncorrupt.Grandma and him been married 71 years. My dad wasn't nice ran off my pop-pop raised me.He's not doing well. But he said to me because I'm the closest living male family member and only grandson for the first 10 years outta what ended up being 25 grandkids. He said to me"if I become a vegetable keep me alive as long as possible because your Grandma needs the $3,000 a month that come because of me and if I die that stops.If if I die you must move in with her the day that I die and not leave her because she will fall apart".that's a big responsibility for a 47-year-old Man that looks at him like he's Mount Everest.I'm absolutely petrified scared.Your comment reminded me of my grandmother, although she had a stroke and can't walk well it is 87,she still seems like she's going to live for a while.I'm so scared for myself,her and the life of my pop-pop. I watch Michael for the same reasons you do and it sounds like you're near their age of the "Greatest Generation".I wish that life could be like it was when I was a kid in the 1970s. Sometimes I wish even more that life was like it was when my grandparents married in 1950.It's a world gone mad.You just made me feel a little bit better so thank you.

[@awalk56]

Hear, Hear.

[@katharinepittman683]

Everything Music & Guitar Shenanigans You, my dear, will be okay. The scariest times in my life when I just felt overwhelmed were the exact seasons that I leaned into a stronger power that never failed me. Sometimes it felt like I was completely alone and had no resources or answers, but I have lived enough years to now look back and see He was walking beside me. These hardest of times were what He used to show me my true strength and fortitude. I see YOU becoming the same Mt. Everest your grandfather is to you for others because you will see what you are capable of. If your faith is weak or forgotten it is NEVER too late to lean into the One who upholds you. Not preaching, just speaking from my heart and experience.

[@rachelkopel5678]

I came with Billy Strings and stayed for the folk, blues, bluegrass, old time rock n roll, jammin', everything I have always loved but don't have anyone to share with. Your reactions to the clips reach out and hit me with *look at that!* You nurture and encourage and teach people HOW. to learn. I leave the time I spend with you humming and energized. Yes, I keep sending you *look at that* messages, but even if you never respond, I will keep hitting that Thumbs Up. I loved the vision in Matt's song.Thanks for sharing it. 💕🙋🎶🎵

[@johnd256]

Michael im just a broke ass subscriber who barely knows which end of my guitar to hold, let alone play it. But brah, i dont come for the guitar lessons, i come because you turn me onto the most amazing music. Some i know, most i dont and i love that. Thank you on behalf of the elite few like me that are just here for the music. All the best in all your endeavors.

[@Guitargate]

Thanks John! Glad you're with me :)

[@sherbiee7537]

This is me, I don't play but love music. And love getting to see you dissect some of my favorite songs, and some that become favorites. Just know that I love what you do and appreciate what you do.

[@crapfirst]

I lost my Grandpa in 2012 and my son was born 2 weeks after. All I wanted in this world was for my grandpa to meet him! But I was no gifted with that. You did an amazing job on this song my friend. Thank you for you talents!

[@olderendirt]

Maybe a handwritten letter to him from you would be a nice keepsake for him and a continuation of the story. Beautiful song and story. Thank you for all you do.

[@whatiskali]

Your video popped up on my feed a couple weeks ago. I love your content and hope you find inspiration in knowing that you make a difference to a simple guy like like me. I’ve discovered so much new music and have picked up my bass and started playing again since my pops passed a couple years ago. This is because of your passion for reviewing music and laying it out for us. Thank you and God Bless.

[@jon_haig]

Michael, thanks so much for what you do brother. Through your channel and your teaching I have learned, listened and discovered music I had been missing in my life. Keep on brother! Your neighbor down the road in Annapolis!

[@Guitargate]

Thanks Jon!!

[@psra8er512]

Hi Michael, great story, and I can relate to it a little bit. About 2 years ago I found a bunch of hand written letters that my Dad wrote to my Mom when he was dating her in the late 1930's. He would write them on his lunch hour at work. Always saying how much he loved her and couldn't wait to see her that night and also how he couldn't wait to marry her. He knew what he was doing, they were married 68 years. He died at 93 and my mom passed at 98. They were both amazing and loving parents..... Time for me to pick up the guitar and start writing 🙂.

[@DanteXL115]

Michael, don't get down man. Not only have you taught so many of us so much about music, but you've brought your heart and soul to this channel and it's so much more than reactions or likes. Look at this community you've helped build, that's not nothin' man. I know it doesn't pay the bills to say, "Hey but people feel good when they watch my videos" but it's still a currency in this disconnected world - a valuable currency at that.

[@Guitargate]

The most valuable. Thanks brother. I know that's true!

[@rodneywilliams6963]

A very true currency.

[@alanwatson3367]

[@keegandrawe9287]

These videos are almost everything I want to get and never do when I ask/tell someone to listen to the lyrics of a song instead 15 seconds later they’re distracted and talking about something else.

[@johnnypasho]

Resonance! I don't want to sound psychic and alternative. But I mean this literally. We're all energy (of sorts) and are made of "star stuff". When we manage to get our energy in tune with someone or something else, it's MAJESTIC! These 9 minutes have resonated with me deeply. Keep at it Michael! And thank you Matt for the heartwarming song. Our lives intersected and I'm wealthier for it :)

[@joshuacase5862]

Mr Palmisano, I absolutely love this channel. I think I have watched all of your videos over the last lockdown, I love grabbing a guitar and working out the tracks live with you, love it! Keep on doing what your doing, your inspiring so many to pick up the guitar and play, do not worry about the KZbin algorithm! I especially love how much you educate about the Melody and it’s importance when really understanding a track. I’m a school teacher in England, first day back at school following restrictions, a little light at the end of the tunnel! One request, Blacks Crowes, Nonfiction. Me and my Dad would listen to this all the time, played as we carried him into the church at his funeral, an absolutely beautiful song; I would love to see your take on it. Keep on rocking in the free world man! PS: stuff on Grateful Dead has been game changing!

[@benjigault9043]

why am i crying at my desk right now?? Man your channel is the best, I played stand up bass for nine years and guitar throughout high school and college.... I put it down when I got a job and a family and after finding you I went out and got an acoustic off the scratch and dent rack at guitar center to play around the house and am now playing daily. I forgot how therapeutic playing was look forward to your videos. Keep doing what you do, its special.

[@Auxend]

Thanks for sharing this man - great community is everything- it keep us goin when our sails are not all catching wind at the same time - and well done Matt! Great story, great tune. Sorry for your losses, you served their memory well.

[@tortillasarenotbiceps7622]

Every person ever born has served a purpose. If you feel like you're alone in your journey, try telling others your story and watch what happens. Someone, somewhere needs to hear your story if only to know they are not alone in this world. We ALL matter.

[@georgeharrison1182]

You have a LOYAL fan base. There’s so many channels out there with amazing metrics, but that’s not factoring all the money they spend on views, comments, subs, etc. Everything you have here is real. You might grow slower, but when your ship comes in it’ll be more than we’ll deserved!

[@TheStefanmack1]

A handwritten note is unique, one of a kind, the feelings at the time of writing, the tiny errors and corrections made with each stroke of the pen say more than the words on the page.

[@RTJsims]

Fuuuuuuck. I’m sitting at a racetrack in nowhere’s ville Eat’n lunch on my break and bumming internet.... and now it’s gettin dusty in this grimy old work truck. I needed this too. Thank for sharing, both of you.

[@stubails16]

How awesome is this?! One day I watch you react to BB King and today I watch you play a video from a subscriber and fan, who wrote about their grandparents and thought you might connect with it. Love the way you connect to good stories and great music no matter where it comes from! Thanks for all you’re doing for this community Michael, particularly in these tough days. And thanks to Matt for sharing his grandparents story. Stay safe and well all.

[@tomyhans5595]

First off... Matt, thank you for having the courage & heart to share such a moment with us. It's courage like yours that will pull a guy like me out from the shadows to feel a little sunshine after hiding my music for so long. So thank you once again. And Michael, man, I've got a lot to say to you but I'll keep it brief before I head over to sign up at Guitargate. In the first video I watched I could tell every cell in your body is a music fan. But in the very next video I clicked on you shared something very personal about your family life. You don't hear real shit like that these days and I appreciate real people. Brother, I hope all is well with your family. I'm a big fan. Thank you for sharing your talent, heart and encouragement with us. Hang tough.

[@jaxscollection1838]

As a new guitar educator, watching your videos has helped me rekindle my interest and passion for playing music. Now, I'm getting excited every time I see a student because watching your videos also helped me remember material that I learned in college studying guitar. Keep doing what you're doing man, don't let the views get you down and keep pushing through! I love your videos and they inspire me!

[@stephenshaver6659]

Michael, I am such an appreciative fan and am so thankful for your genuine love for the music, guitar, artist, your audience, your friends and all those intangibles in-between that have been powerful reaffirmation that I have drawn soulful support from constantly as I navigate the road that is "for your ( my) steps alone." At the age of 54, being one of "Jerry's kids" and probably owing the fact that I am still alive to the outlet that playing guitar provides to, your sharing of your gifts have been incredibly helpful in my tendency to become focilized with my guitar abilities. You have taught me the music theory and techniques that I have been admiring for years in the musical voicing that are the distinctive characteristics that I have recognized in the playing style of the artists I have been in great admiration of (recently, your beautiful explication of BB Kings's playing). I could go on and on. I just wanted to make sure you knew what you are to myself, and I know, to many others regardless of the way you are trending on KZbin. I am very sorry about not joining your channel but am living in my car and am financially challenged. Your value is far beyond money to me and I am humbled by the fact that I could not ever imagine a dollar amount that would compensate you for the way you are giving to me, and I am not the only person that you are adding to I hope you know. Thank you so very much! Keep on keepin' on (my mantra ala Bob Dylan).

[@kevencormier7522]

Truely a beautiful moment to share with us. It also shows how much you inspire people. You create links with people by sharing. I love that the inspiration came trough letters, back in a day where it was harder to share time with the ones we love.

Thank you Matt Glavin and Michael. I've only been a subscriber for a few days. This video of Matt hit me hard today, as the wife an old friend lost her battle with Cancer this morning. So to cheer me up I played the video of Frankie Valli singing Sherry Baby, I didn't get through the first verse before losing it, her name was also Sherry. Dumb idea under the circumstances. I like how you complimented Matt on finishing this song to his Grandmother. Kudos to both of you

[@mattglavin6598]

So sorry for your loss ❤️ thanks so much

[@ice5098]

Hey Michael, been going through some hard stuff right now, and I've always enjoyed and followed your videos, and positive energy. Now more than ever, I actually find your videos help me a lot when I just want to sit down and relax and find some peace. Keep doing what you're doing man - the metrics will work themselves out :))

[@MrLiftr]

Your channel is a beacon for the real people in this world... people are in need of that... keep it up Michael!

[@ChrisLawton66]

We're all real people.

[@MrLiftr]

@@ChrisLawton66 Yes for sure, but some people live they're dead, like I did for a while. But this channel ain't about that, it's about truth and life and beautiful experiences, that's what I mean by "real". People are attracted to this kind of "down-to-earthness". We need that.

[@niigu]

Michael! This is so awesome and heartwarming. For me, music is less about the technical abilities of the performers, and more about the emotions conveyed through the lyrics. Its what connect a simple or advanced piece of music to the listener. Mr Matt Glavin did a tremendous job with his lyrics and playing, and what an interesting way to find inspiration - simply wondering through his family history. This upload gave me inspiration for sure. Do not doubt what you do. If it feels right, it probably is. No job will ever be perfect. You got to make the best of it :)

[@brushstroke3733]

I feel the same as you about being more interested in the guts and bones of music than in the style and skin, though of course, we appreciate all of it. I think too often we musicians get wrapped up on the arrangement and production and lose sight of the song. It's like building pretty houses but not laying a foundation for them first, and in twenty years, they're gone and no one remembers them.

[@christianmoocarme2569]

It's awesome too see you inspiring people to write songs and your inspiration that comes from inspiring people! The infinite loop of music!

[@medi23]

Raising three kids and searching for a career to support my family caused me to put it down for a long time. I always have loved music, but I just didn't feel I had the time. Your videos brought me back after the first watch. Your reactions tap into the roots of who we are and what we love about music. Been playing ever since and am so thankful for what you do Mike.

[@christopherwayne9949]

Just keep at it bro. First time I saw you on the tube was your reaction to Tom Bukavac and I got so tickled that you were so tickled at his playing. Man, made my day. I've been watching ever since and try not to miss Tuesday nights. Your joy is contagious. Sure has helped getting through 2020 ( Year of the Hoover) because it "sucked". You've turned me on to some new music because of Tuesday nights. Keep it up....

[@michaelbaldwin170]

Michael i just also wanted to say thank you and keep it up. I just found out today that my job of 11 years will be ending soon and the place that I experienced so many great interactions will be taken from me. Its not easy but this video post of yours is a reminder that being sincere and caring of others will push us through the shit that life often slings at us. And just wanted to tell you that your videos inspired me as a mandolin player to take the plunge and finally get the lessons ive needed. Although not through you it was your breaking down of songs that reminded me i have so much to learn and that theres no time like the present. And i can assure you that i will one day soon pick the guitar back up and sign up for your online lessons! Keep on keeping on!!! And thank you!

[@Gert-Jan_Witteveen]

I needed THIS today Michael and Matt. You can have the flashiest licks, the most expensive gear… but nothing can replace sincere, human emotion. And you both showed that in this video. I think we all get bogged down by the busyness of life sometimes, feeling like our musicianship is going nowhere… this was a nice reminder that if we stay true to ourselves, and stay honest, keep working… we’re all capable of making some beautiful, amazing music for the world.

Michael--I applaud your enthusiasm, and I watch all of your videos. I am a purchaser of Guitargate, and I really want to get back to playing and now, want to know why I am doing what I play. But, with my memory deficit, and extraordinary pain I have in my hands for almost all day, I am frozen. Sometimes even inspiring people like you "freeze," and feel like life and career are not progressing as you wish. But, I am within a whisper of 75 years old, I am quite ill, and still find you a "guiding light," even if I cannot dig in to the lessons. Just your heartfelt reactions (not just this touching one) still bring joy into my life. Thank you, "Mike"

Dude I have a pretty stressful job at times. Especially the last year. But watching these vids and learning the guitar more has been the most stress relieving, relaxing thing ever. Thank you!

My job right now has us on 6pm to 2 am 7 days a week right now it’s going to pay for my wedding this October but my fiancé works 1st shift so I see her rarely and this song really hit me with how I’ve been feeling. thanks for sharing

I've been subscribed for a while and I've watched a lot of your videos. This one struck a different tone. This one touched me on an emotional level. We tend to write our best stuff when we are in the most pain. That's when we bare our soul. It's real. Thanks brother!
