Philip Sayce - Once - 2023 Glasgow

[@irasherman3308]

Never heard of this great musician but glad I found him on KZbin! A cross between Robin Trower, Stevie Ray and Hendrix!!! Awesome!!

Guys have you seen the replies to my post from the guy @Loit5091, really all I did say was how much I enjoyed the gig, one of the best I had attended, then a barrage of very hostile comments on Sayce, he clearly does not share our opinion of him and thinks he is a clone and then gets very personal, is this guy for real?

[@Ram-by2gz]

He's not even close to Jimmy or Stevie.

[@davidbrucemusicvideo]

@@Ram-by2gz that’s a ridiculous thing to say. I’m not trying to be mean to you, like you are trying to be mean, but you obviously don’t play guitar, so you wouldn’t understand. Yes, he’s very close to those guitar players. So much so that at first I was a bit perturbed because he sounded like he was trying to sound exactly like Stevie. So for you to say he’s not even close is ridiculous. And at 1:47, he’s definitely channeling Jimmi.

[@Ram-by2gz]

@@davidbrucemusicvideo @davidbrucemusicvideo what you just wrote is so ridiculous. First off I'm not trying to mean. I'm just making an observation which I know I'm qualified to make after hearing this guy play. You have no idea who I am and to actually say I don't play guitar also mean you are a psychic which you're not. You have to put in with your two cents about how great this guy is and how he channels Jimi and whatever the nonsense you said . I'm not surprised the people like u I run into on the internet in these comments section. I'm so wasting my time having to even responded to you because it's such a dead end.

[@Roscoe1279]

Couldn't believe his guitar stayed in tune after such a great lead! Sounds in the Hendrix style. 👍

[@cleech74]

Especially because it doesn’t have a Floyd Rose, or locking nut at the top of the neck. Looks like the original standard issue hardware, and no modifications on it. SRV said that model Strat was a bit harder to play compared to other well known brands, and both he & Hendrix were a bit rough on them, and attacked their guitars with their style of playing. Plenty of Hendrix live performances where he would have to tune them up a few times throughout his sets. Maybe this guy isn’t as rough as they were, with less instances of having to tune between songs. I definitely enjoyed this video, and gotta hear some more of his stuff.🎸

He sent it out and the audience received it and sent it back...that is the exchange that blues rock is all about. I appreciate that he has dedicated his life to developing his talent as far as he can take it and now he can share it with others, that takes guts and a certain type of person who won't give up or stop trying...inspiring. And he never misses a note so I think he's dialed into the sweet spot now and taking it on the road....hats off.

I can't remember exactly when but it was probably more than 20 years ago i was walking downtown in Guelph Ontario Canada when i walked past a club with live music. As i stood outside listening i was impressed. I had to go inside and find out who was playing. It was Philip Sayce . I watched the rest of the show and was blown away. I recall he mentioned some issues with his record company at that time. Thanks to u tube i can experience his talent again.

[@michaelblankenau6598]

Hi Troy. Savage is in really bad shape if he has only one friend (willing to embarrass himself) who appears to be high out of his mind when trying to defend him. You also, Troy, got a giggle out of me by claiming "no one understands what ur saying". What makes it so funny is that your words reveal to everyone that you know exactly what I'm saying and yet suggesting everyone else is not very smart because they don't know. Claiming "wtf u talking about", and then offering your explanation, indicates you should get a friend who is not high (if you have one) to read your responses before you publish them. Otherwise, you leave everyone stealing your words and saying :"wtf u talking about?" Troy.@@tomtroy12
