Finnerty doesn't mind if he doesn't make the scene. He's got a KZbin channel that's doing all right.

[@notrednorblue]

Pat is my favorite music YT channel. At least half the jokes I feel like were written for me or are things I’ve thought about in some level. But he’s content and hilarious.

[@marketville]

The 3 thumbs down are from Weezer, Kid Rock, and Three Doors Down

[@Cristobolon]

And Beato.. aaahhg i don't know about that guy

[@KingofCrusher]

LOL that made me literally LOL in the old school meaning. I laughed out loud. Good times.

[@ThePowergoats]

LOL!!!

[@daniandres3211]

Already 10 thumbs down. One is mine. In my opinion, if it flows, it's music. If it doesn't flow, it's not real music. And this is too cerebral in my opinion. Thanks for sharing anyway!

[@powerpopaholic876]

Obligatory comment about thumbs down. I get where you’re coming from, I get it I guess it’s just getting old...

I come to the channel to learn why songs are stinkers and here I am finding the most worthy sultans of swing cover I have ever heard in my LIFE holy crap Pat you're even more of a real one than I could have possibly known

[@TrashHeapCustodian]

Every time I come back to this song is a delightful treat

[@peterrusso9123]

This is probably the most tone accurate cover of this i've ever heard, and that harmonized solo was incredible

[@rickthomas393]

A clever idea, well executed. Having two lead-capable guitar players in a band opens up neat possibilities.

[@L1ama]

Or if you really wanna crank it to 11, have 3 lead guitarists like iron maiden post-99

[@xp7575]

I played in a ska punk band in high school back in the 90's and we tricked a Media Play into letting us play a gig in their store by telling them we were a jazz band figuring that since we had horns they wouldn't figure it out until it was too late and they definitely didn't figure it out until it was too late 😂

Geez man, just got this autosuggested to me. As a massive Thin Lizzy fan I never get tired of harmonized guitar parts. This was amazing.

[@mattsilipini7203]

2 Knopflers for the price of one! I'm seeing double Knops! Seriously great job on a true classic. The only time I get into a cover song is either when it's done with appreciation and respect it deserves, or when it's a (good) new and different take on the song. But you guys definitely nailed it!

Pat! I know it feels gross: PLUG YOUR BAND IN YOUR VIDS! Even if its quick at the end or beginning. You are about to blow up to Beato status, make sure people know how to sell out your shows. They will.

@@burtcocain1986 A lot of people dont know this, but the music gods only allow there to ever be one "hat band" at a time, and since the inception of the concept of "hat band" it's just always been Devo, so there cannot be another hat band until Devo breaks up completely.
