Keith Urban: At Guitar Center - The Holy Grail of Guitars

[@sunflowertrujillo4864]

That is totally awesome beautiful ❤️❤️❤️🌻

[@mance02]

DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDE!! I NEVER KNEW he was a Australian!! I've always thought, since he does country, i thought he was from down south. But you learn new things everyday!

Yes, the flood in Nashville was terrible. What is more terrible is the lack of press and National media that covered it. No federal money, no external help of any kind. The musicians and the people of Tennessee particularly Nashville took care of it themselves. Something you don't see much of anymore.

[@adamtylermiller]

The "drowning" he's referring to the Nashville flood of 2010. It was a 1000 year flood. Tons of musicians who warehoused their vintage instruments in Nashville, while they were on the road, lost tons of gear. The Grand Ole Opry, Opry Mills Mall, LP Field, and The Bridgestone Arena were all flooded. 21 people lost their lives and clean up still continues to this day.Devastating.

LAME!!! Yea... ZZ Top had a bunch of guitars get destroyed, I'm pretty sure. They had copies of all of them made after. lol

[@bigeddie54]

@Chadlynx Soundcheck- where Keith's equipment was stored while not on tour was badly flooded during the May flood in Nashville.This is what he is referring to.

[@dylmt]

Wow from many of the comments here, you can tell much of the press did a BAD job in reporting the huge flood in Nashville in May 2010! Most of the city was under water....seriously bad flooding. On another note.....little music reference there....I love his accent! Sometimes it seems stronger than others. I am guessing it is stronger when he has just recently been to Australia. That is pretty typical. What an enormous talent he is! I get to see him in concert for the first time this July!

[@kiaranjay]

@Chadlynx I believe there were some pretty bad floods in Tennessee or somewhere, cus I heard Brad Paisley and some other artists also lost some guitars during that, I could be wrong tho :)

[@MarkSmithMusic]

@sebsoriano19 The flood that hit Nashville caused a huge amount of water damage to a well-known storage/rehearsal facility. Plenty of artists lost a lot of gear :( Keith and Brad Paisley come to mind.

[@ev88an]

@Zack Schorr No the holy grail of guitars is the Gibson Les Paul

[@judemisura4323]

Keith, Brad Paisley, Vince Gill, lynyrd skynyrd are just some of the artists that lost gear in the 2010 Nashville flood

[@billypopali]

i believe hes talking about the nashville floods last year

[@Chadlynx]

What does he mean by drowned? Like literally immersed in water and destroyed?

[@lukiebartlett]

How did all his guitars drown?

[@25DSC]

I'm guessing that he's talking about the Nashville floods

[@badfinger848]

Urban is actually a New Zealander...although it wasn't long after he was born that he moved to Australia.

[@sebsoriano19]

why so many of his damn guitars "drown"?

[@lmfs4032]

the huge and disastrous nashville flood

[@leesloan8216]

@evandavis the holy grail of guitars is whatever you want it to be. Just because a 59 lp burts goes for stupid money doesn't mean its the best guitar in the world! The ONLY reason 59 bursts go for so much is because they weren't that popular at the time so gibson only produced around 1800 or so but only about 800/900 are accounted for to date! Personally my holy grail guitar would be a 52/54 Tele!

[@nickb3250]

+lee Sloan Agreed. Mine would be a 58 Es-338 in tobacco sunburst

[@wisesatyr72]

just caught his new line of guitar collection tat hes selling informercial lol

[@bluesboyguitar]

@sebsoriano19 Because of the Nashville flood.

[@whysdarknesssobad]

did his house flood or something?

[@patrickbostater1139]

Nashville had a major flood that almost destroied the whole town

[@lfdevall4]

I've got a 58 gold top , Keith call me.

[@DetVen]

Is "drown" another word for "coke money"?

[@alaskanrobby]

Its the Nashville flood of 2010. The guitars and gear they stored in Nashville all got ruined by the flood. Lots of precious gear that will never be recovered.

[@OneManRubberBand]

I thought the same thing. I'm surprised I didn't know about Nashville getting flooded.

[@TrevorGarner]

Yea, there was a storage facility that flooded. Tons of guitars, amps, etc were underwater for a day or so. It was bad.

[@ittdust]

OneManRubberBand Yes, the media ignored it, even though the entire city was 20 ft under water.

[@ittdust]

Mister Tee No, I was living in Nashville surrounded by water. Where were you? Look at the comments, people clearly are clueless as to the flood. Even when I've talked about it with others it's always news to them.

[@PARAMEDIC981]

hahahahaha
