Kyuss- 50 Million Year Trip(live)

[@oasisoasis21]

ive been tuned in C since i discovered Kyuss...wonders if ill ever be able to play standard again

[@tapu32]

As a band, we got out of touch. Tensions were high, because there were some personal things in the band that we didnt like, and that we needed to fix. And they werent fixed. Josh wasnt about to fix them, so the tension grew even higher, and it was very difficult. The pressure was building, and personal things came between us, pretty much. It had nothing to do with creative differences or the music that broke Kyuss apart. - John Garcia

[@johncuda]

Scott Reeder will always be my favorite bassist.

[@pattonPwr]

+johncuda prefer nick

[@soopahsoopah]

what an interesting little gem this vid is... I would have like to see Kyuss play live...

[@theheraldwolf]

the spirit of kyuss heh *tokes* but i'll never forget you anyway... in truth though i was about to say that this is the greatest video on youtube. hands down, a viking, a pair of mexican dudes and a ginger kid play the greatest jam ever recorded.

[@alucardisdumb]

truly,one of the most beautiful moments in history this is like my fourth time watching this and i still get chills

[@nicholaskruger9460]

Saw them three times live. Up close. It was always epic

[@mangomariel]

Yep, this is probably the best live setting I could wish for.

[@Into92Productions]

This and Gardenia are probably my two favorite songs to play. The feel of them both is pretty amazing. Especially this one's solo at the end.

[@TolodaFragua]

JUST FUCKING AMAZING!! Good old times.....bring them back...bring them back...

[@oasisoasis21]

hes one badass guitar player

[@jacksonthrasher]

its so good because its them playing to their mates for fun, now there are about 5 copies of "blues" in my local HMV which is tiny and has a very small metal section. It's unbelievable

[@cripplas]

That solo... so smoth and so groovy.. amazing.

[@magneteye]

Kyuss = the Godfathers of modern stoner rock.

[@mangomariel]

Nick is not here. You see the guy with long hair playing bass, that is Scott Reeder.

[@chappylegend]

Just got my tickets for May in Adelaide. So stoked I cant put it into words.

[@red-xv5ki]

That's very true, especially on this live version. The solo is very much in a similar vein to those songs you mentioned, and not the rest of the Kyuss catalogue.

[@beefver]

Absolutly faboulos! It's my favourite song! Thanks Thanks very very much

[@0mnis14sh]

Seeing josh miss a few of those bends make me feel a little better about my crumby playing.

[@ke228]

Love this song!!

[@Curdog]

Thanks for posting John and thanks for the music!!!

[@Kelmourne]

What I meant was that it isn't usually considered "classic rock". That genre almost always pertains to the 60's/70's.

[@greencage]

i agree, about time that this song had a live video out

[@q0tSa]

my favourite kyuss song...the ending is just magnifique

[@btmilner]

break down in this version is so much better than the studio version imo

[@pattonPwr]

LEGENDARY

[@iscream22]

It is indeed! Im a fairly new fan of kyuss (about 5 years now) and Kyuss is just one of those bands that truly ROCK. And their music doesnt sound dated at all (kind of like The Pixies in my opinion, not in style just that it sounds new). Lets cross our fingers and hope they get back together sometime but even if they dont, they still have awesome albums.

[@SomeJustice19k]

This song is why I'll always have a guitar tuned in C.... Maybe I'll be able to actually play it right one day.

[@iamthepinkylifter]

josh is such a killer guitar player. the star of kyuss, no doubt.

[@seatleson]

for me, its Josh and Scott Reeder what made Kyuss unique. (yeah I'm replying to your 12-year-old comment lol)

[@omarshaheen807]

16 years now

[@bananiolo2]

Probably the best of kyuss!

[@seabass3373]

Wish I could have seen them live! Sadly, I was not born yet

[@NuclearGuru350]

Josh Homme, on a musical level (and physical too, actually), can kick the shit out of any punk or metal band. Ever.

[@fuckamericanidiot]

NuclearGuru350 Scoffing at Kyuss or Queens (old Queens especially) by metal fans just shows how much of a tin ear so many of them have. Especially the Maiden/Priest types. I reckon extreme metal fans are audiophiles just like Kyuss fans are and would appreciate them at least.

[@topdogkiller]

I definitely agree with you man, i mean he an amazing guitarist but I feel he had way more energy in kyuss than qotsa. Though I really respect him for not trying to recreate another kyuss people should definitly look at his shit in that way.

[@666slink]

Hell YES! Thanks for posting this.

[@alexjamesdf]

mind blowing! 50 milion year trip til I die

[@davidian876]

this is a great song to listen to after a big night out

[@mangomariel]

I miss high school Josh. He is such a tough ass now, he should play some more psychedelic bridge solo like this :)

[@iamthepinkylifter]

if you tune your guitar to C F Bb Eb G C, all it is is f minor (fingered like A minor in standard tuning), Ab (fingered like C), and then, keeping the same finger position, sliding up two frets to a Bb-ish chord.

[@Onedarknight]

Back when they didn't need bouncers to kill the guy who touched the stage...

[@gguinez]

la raja esta canción hace tiempo quería verla en vivo

[@SuprSaiyanRockr]

Man, I hope they play this in the Kyuss Lives tour.

[@matternicuss]

i think for a band to be considered classic rock they need to be from the era. because its not really a genre so much as an era from the 70's. lynyrd synyrd was from classic rock(but their genre was southern rock). led zeppelin was from the era too (but they were early heavy metal). same with black sabbath. pink floyd was progressive rock etc. kyuss will always be associated with the stoner metal movement from the early nineties, along with bands like sleep

[@junkreep]

This is a real trip!

[@Kelmourne]

If you watch some live videos with Alfredo Hernandez, his drum kit is smaller as well.

[@eftaxopoulo]

If they play this in their live in Athens (15/3/2011) I will cry and die ..

[@NuclearGuru350]

@67goldtops Nice sarcasm. I happen to find a lot of emotion in his playing, he's written some of the best riffs in the last 20 years. His soloing style is usually sloppy/dirty but I happen to like it because it doesn't sound like every other guitarist trying to be the best. He has his own style and doesn't try to sound like guys from 40 years ago cause its already done. Listen to Kyuss's "Whitewater" or QOTSA's "You can't Quite Me Baby" live in Rio 2001 (two parter) and tell me he can't play.

[@slideon]

best stoner rock band ever if u want to call kyuss that whatever they rock

[@Kokie1989]

@reb3lscum Garcia, oliveri and Brant Bjork, the line up of Blues for the red sun, without Josh homme of course, I dont know whose gonna fill the lead guitar place.

[@Kelmourne]

It would be impossible for me to agree more.

[@viedub]

That is definitely Brant on drums, you can just tell

[@Hitamaru]

Solo was awesome... where is Nick? can't notice him without hair...

[@ke228]

Damn, I wish I was there.

[@spicyMcHAGGIS9green]

@67goldtops You could've ignored the person who directed you to this video.

[@funnyname92]

josh homme is my hero.

[@Hayaletor]

listen to Slo Burn maan, there Garcia just rocks

[@topdogkiller]

sheeeit, thnx to all the cats who fuck with kyuss, If anyone knows anything about this show or has more footage let me know or put that shit out.

[@mrkyussman]

Oh My fuckin' God...the final 4 minutes...Epic

[@topdogkiller]

@Kelmourne thanks man =)

[@matternicuss]

that's your opinion. and quite understandable (they're probably one of the more controversial acts out there). Its true they are different, I was just making a jab thats all. No offense to Kyuss. But qotsa is a perfectly fine band, that remains one of the only true rock n roll bands in the mainstream today. and I've never heard anyone define Kyuss as 'classic rock'. though I admit that they have a certain groove that is reminiscent of that era. I still think of em as Stoner Metal

[@Kelmourne]

I was about 5 in Kyuss' prime. That's a fucking shame.

[@mifaigirarelepalle]

i really don't understand why they played this song a couple of times,,,this song fuckin kicks ass, and it's probably one of my favourite in kyuss discography

[@NuclearGuru350]

@67goldtops Well, that's just, like....your opinion, man.

[@tummayo]

yh i,m in ireland and to young to have seen them live aswell:L:L

[@7iNEEDurDISCIPLINE7]

epic solo

[@Rockstafar]

I really do like QOTSA but Kyuss are in a different league...RIP Kyuss (but hopefully not for too long)

[@67goldtops]

@OutisPan "SRV is beer commercial music." Now THAT is great comedic writing! Thanks for the laugh. That truly may be THE most inept comment ever uttered on youtube. You are a prodigy!

[@scummy777]

kyuss freakin rule!god,i wish they'd get back together.well,at least i got to see them twice.queens is a cool band but nothing like kyuss,kyuss were freakin heavy.last time i saw them was on the day jerry garcia died,that show had alot anger or maybe angst,it was weird.

[@Whitewater56]

I would sell my soul, only to have been at this show. (sorry for the mistakes,i´m german)

[@ElJimben]

I am drinking....I am rolling...

[@Kelmourne]

@topdogkiller It's the Palo Alto gig in '94. If you watch the hurricane video, the same guy stage dives in that video as in this one. Plus, the lighting is the same.

[@spicyMcHAGGIS9green]

@67goldtops Why do you come to Kyuss vids? Lrn 2 troll. lolwhyumadthough.jpg

[@bfinney]

Anyone know who's drumming here- Hernandez or Bjork?

[@Switchfifty]

oh yes

[@giantrockrecords2527]

what year is this?

[@NuclearGuru350]

I don't know who that is. But I was just trying to get a point across, haha.

[@67goldtops]

@NuclearGuru350 Yup.

[@bigczech7]

anyone know what year this was recorded?

[@agdgdgwngo]

Hendrix, Nirvana, Kyuss, QOTSA

[@TheLegend-yo3fw]

🤘

[@LNAMTH]

Yeah, it makes Josh's hair purple. 8)

[@GRoskWorks]

@67goldtops @MrBlink41SUM How far have I sunk when I read your argument on youtube and feel the need to comment? Anyway, let's focus on the common enemy, of Nickelback, or Pop in general.

[@magneteye]

@topdogkiller Minus Josh Homme...

[@mangomariel]

word

[@slayerBO2EPC]

Can't understand shit and I love it

[@Kokie1989]

@Kelmourne At the same time, i would say that you don't need to be a really good or technical player to be in Kyuss, you just have to be stoned, groovy and greasy.

[@Kelmourne]

Scott Reeder is from mars.

[@NuclearGuru350]

Melodic Death Metal?

[@topdogkiller]

REUNION??? Oh shiiit FUCK YEAAAAAAAAAH =)

[@OutisPan]

@67goldtops First of all SRV's beer commercial music (I'm sorry that he died and everything, but he made beer commercial music) is MUCH more in line with the taste of the American public than Kyuss will ever be. Second, you sound like one of those musicians who thinks the be-all end-all of music is to play and/or admire someone for playing that which is most difficult to play, without regard to aesthetics or feeling. Ever stopped to think that the off-key aspects of this music were INTENTIONAL?

[@volker87]

just wanted to write the same xD

[@NuclearGuru350]

Reeder's playing bass, so...probably Alfredo.

[@duffeknol]

I stand corrected, I thought Hella were hella older :(

[@Iederhas]

Look at Josh, yeah? He's better than you.

[@Kelmourne]

Sabbath was metal. Kyuss isn't classic. QotSA hasn't always sucked, only after their split EP with Kyuss. And "Go With the Flow" isn't a bad song either.

[@theheraldwolf]

pointless bickering hehehe *sues old mates over name* heheh*

[@MSA]

too bad josh wont reunite with kyuss

[@metallurgico]

i wanna be josh's pick.. i wanna be taken and slammed on his guitar..

[@matternicuss]

i dunno dude, Im sure greg from DEP could take him easily, and his band could probably outclass them in terms of ability(if not accessibility). thats not to diss josh or QOTSA, amazing artists they are, but its a bit much to say he can take ANYONE(especially on a musical level).

[@matternicuss]

DEP is the dillinger escape plan. kind of punk, hardcore, jazz stuff. really odd, violent and not for everyone

[@sandrastaley]

SHIAAT, just pooped my pants for 7:39

[@MRM0J0RISIN777]
