    The Last Dance brought me here. Your self-effacing & clear explanation made me stay & subscribe. I was playing this song within 10 minutes. Now I'm going to practice making it flow... Thanks a lot, man!

    Harcore PJ fan but I wasn't expecting the song to be played at the very end of The Last Dance. Being a Michael Jordan fan as well, it really brought me to tears. I love you, Ryan, for this lesson! Mwwuah

    Bob Ross approved! Ryan Lendt, the painter of the Pearl Jam canvass. Pure awesome sauce my friend!💣💥💥💥💥

    • @RyanLendt
      @RyanLendt  Před 6 lety +1

      that painting is one of my dearest possessions :) Alas i cannot draw or paint to save my life. I used to spend a lot of time trying to draw my turtle Sylvia, but that was 26 years ago

    • @cperine39
      @cperine39 Před 6 lety

      I'm sure Sylvia appreciates your efforts. Hope she's still doing great. And I was referring to the statement you made about if Bob Ross were to play a Pearl Jam song, it would be Present Tense. Not the painting in your studio, although I do think that he would highly approve of that one for sure.

    I’d like to think Bob Ross would play
    In My Tree(Happy Little Version).
    Or if he did Low Light, he would add Fluffy Little Clouds roll by....
    But the ultimate, would be the deep cut instrumental,
    “The Only Fluffy Little Cloud
    In The Sky” ☁️

    Hi Ryan, I´ve been checking multiple live performances of ´Present tense´, and Eddie is playing that part in the very end (10.16) in a different way..it´s seems more approachable maybe? What is he doing? Cheers.

    • @RyanLendt
      @RyanLendt  Před 4 lety +2

      What's up Pedro! you're right, while these may be the notes, this video is totally not how present tense is played, although at the time I thought it was. I have since figured it out and plan to do an update :) good spot my good man. cheers to you :)

  • @theseeker4419

    Apparently where both Pearl Jam fans. I bet musicians hate it when Eddie does a cover' Because he does it better then them. He is a "Betterman" 😉. I really dig your Pearl Jam covers. Can you do Eddies version of "Solder of love". I saw Eddie in San Antonio Texas. It was just him, in a kind of small theater. He did his Ukulele songs and the ones from into the Wild. It was amazing' one of the best bands live I have seen. A phenomenal song writer. Mcreedy is amazing. The whole band just flows together. If you ever make it to Dallas Tx. You got a friend, brother!

      Oh yeah by the way I really like the cover of PJs Gimme some truth. As i'm sure you know the acoustic version has a Cappo on the third fret. But I used the chords you taught on the electric on an accoustic and it works really good man. It has been my song of the week lol. I busted it out at a drum jam I was at. During the quite time. People loved it. Thanks man! For doing all these Pearl Jam videos.
