Let's appreciate how happily and enthusiastically Tim celebrates other musicians on his channel.
Because he is the real deal..pure artist,not a celebrity..im glad you noticed that too..
Tim Pierce always looks like he's having the time of his life whenever he plays.
He seems like a wonderful man
BOSS!
hi
Are you referring to the boss me 80 being used at the Grammys or that Tim is a boss. I agree Tim is a great player, but I was surprised to see a boss me multi fix on that stage. That says a lot for boss.
No matter how many times I watch Tim play I still can't get over how amazingly talented he is.
And makes it seem so effortless
@@123person31 The basterd!
Dick Dastardly Try not to smile when he’s playing... just try!
@@UmVtCg I'll take half of Tim's talent and call it a day.
@@UmVtCg True (practice) but you sound like you want to under cut what it takes to make it so good so seamless ...What you got?? where's you re 210K subscriber channel? Keep smiling ..Peace!
Being a modern day session guitarist is simple: you just need to be a stone cold genius like Tim
Tim, your playing is always great but this video in particular shows your versatility and incredible feel as a musician. I LOVE this.
Did you see how effortless the chromatic run was on 'Got To Get You Into My Life'? I busted out laughing. That's some smooth playing!
Well said Rhett! 7 nation army? 8)
Sorry to be off topic but does someone know a way to log back into an Instagram account??
I was stupid forgot my password. I would love any assistance you can offer me!
Perfect comment
he has no plan b also just straight assassination's on those parts a true master of the guitar just like you to Bud
Good lord, what a band was sitting on that stage. Able to play, for all intents and purposes, *anything* on demand. Absolutely LOVED it.
Just when I thought I couldn't possibly respect you more. What a great video Tim.
Tim, Dean Parks, Lee and Vinnie. Holy crap. Best of the best. What a lot of work to pull all those charts and styles off in a one shot deal. Thanks so much for sharing the behind the scenes. Much rather watch that. Big talent, big hearts.❤️
No kidding! Talk about a supergroup! That's what I'm talkin' 'bout!
I'd much rather see this than most of the stuff on TV. They should at least record it and put it up on TH-cam or something.
Honestly it probably doesn't occur to them there would be an audience for that
They stream it on Grammy.com
I agree🙏👍❤️💕
Agreed
Never be afraid to bring a BOSS ME-50 to a show like that. That was a great lesson. 🤣
Holy Moly! The amount of music this band is responsible for playing, energetically and flawlessly, would cause me to wilt, maybe three songs in. These guys sound like they've been playing this material for months. They really are the best.
Collectively, these guys have been playing music professionally for centuries, no doubt!
Very interesting. Thanks for the super behind the scenes look :)
I’d be so lost, I’d just start playing random chords, with the volume off.
I mute the strings and click on the wah, never fails.
HAHAHA! Me too!
It's unbelievable how casual he is. He's looking around, not looking at his guitar.
Performing at the Grammies is quite a top notch gig for the talented Tim Pierce! A true and prolific musician you are!
"75 songs", or the shortened Springsteen show.
Or the first 2 songs of a Grateful Dead set.
truly inspiring and eye opening how much work goes behind the scenes and as always great work from all involved. I believe the real grammys could learn a thing or two from these performances and the amount of passion everyone puts into them.
Even as a drummer, your channel is incredibly important to me. Thank you Tim.
What a great thing to hear, the back bone of working musicians professing their soul!
What an absolutely absolutely fabulous actual working musician behind the scenes video!!!!! I was hoping TimP would do this and here it is!! Awesome!!
And then there is the flawless ease TimP brings to this serious game!! So cool!!
I love this time of year when Tim showcases his work at the Grammys.
Love the insights into stuff like this. Thanks Tim! 🤘
The musicians that the musician's choose to entertain them.... says a lot. True class showing the all the bandmates names at the end as well.
Man, your playing on that Angelique Kidjo song was incredible-- your diversity of styles is stunning.
I also found that part impressive! He nailed every single bit of a completely different genre
Tim, Dean Parks, Leland Sklar and Vinnie! What a line up! (But who was the trombonist?)
Eric Jorgensen
@@joewakeford Cheers! :)
12:12....is that really Vinnie?
@@richhufford6038 I think so
I like the kid sitting in the chair trying to figure what these guys are doing. He is a witness to greatness
and, he has that paperthing in his hands..
Can you imagine one day realizing what he was present for?!
What a pity that the REAL musical talent is hidden off the stage.
Edit: Please don't take my comment literally. Of course great musical talent can be found in the famous performers, writers, producers, engineers, etc. I'm just emphasizing that of us who follow Tim know what he brings to the party and regard him as a Star in his own right. ✌️
I wouldn't say hosts and other "good looking" people at front were not talented. It's depends on the nature of your job.
This has been the case for many decades
Yes it's not the case here but sometimes a well rehearsed band of pros can bore everyone to death if it doesn't have that person giving the extra emotional boost and meaning
I don't think that's fair, the people on stage are also talented, that's why they are getting awards. The focus of the show isn't on the backing musicians who are there to do a job anymore than it is on the sound engineers or the camera crew
The people on stage are definetly talented...the people backstage ...for the most part ..played on the people’s onstage records ...err ..does that statement make sense..or ..do I need to drink another beer ..or ..two ? 😎🎸
The most impressive part of a gig like this is the ability to stay “in the moment” while also being able to stay ready for cues from the MD. I’ve MD-ed a few gigs in my day, and I would have given anything to have a group of musicians that were as dialed in to my cues as this group. With even half the talent it would still make for a tight gig. That is the essence of professionalism IMO, when your first priority is playing for the ensemble, with yourself (and your ego) in the back seat.
Please give me some time to pick up my jaw from the floor. Outstanding Tim. And Dean Parks in there as well. Never is the art of rhythm guitar been better displayed. Two masters at once. Wow wow wow. Thank you so much for letting us be flys on the wall.
He’s probably only played these songs a couple of times at most but his confidence is amazing. So effortlessly playing these songs perfectly.
OK, Tim. I totally geeked out, and played “Find the Sklar.” Finally spotted him behind Vinnie’s music stand!
You are the quintessential "workingman's rockstar." No doubt about it. My hero...
Great video Tim! I was there and you and the band sounded awesome 😎
Thanks Tim. This backstage look is one of my favorites that you publish. It gives us mortals a peak into something we will never personally experience. This also displays the professionalism of the participants, and especially yourself coming in hours ahead and ensuring everything is in place, working, and no surprises to expect. Really well done. (I hope the young boy Marco appreciates what he is experiencing during the pre-show rehearsal. He appears to be digging your guitar playing. Lucky guy! 😁).
There is so much joy in music. Awards being given, vocalists backed by great musicians and playing with friends. wow.
Yep... Try not to smile when Tim’s playing... just try!
"A Night In Tunisia" came out of nowhere. Talk about being able to play a broad spectrum of styles! Hats (Derby's) off to you sir.
Who would want to go that 'other' Grammy show when this is available?? Vinnie, Lee Sklar, Tim, Dean Parks, Luis...it's nothing but the best of the best! And did I see Dean with a Boss ME 80 at his feet?
@@6stringstorulethemall967 That's the truth. Viewership keeps going down. Gee, I wonder why!
I noticed that ME80, too. I had an ME70 that I traded with some in combination with some other gear to "upgrade" to an MS-3. The MS-3 is pretty awesome, but still kicking myself for getting rid of the ME70. I don't think you can beat the design of Boss's ME series of multieffects units if you are looking for something that functions like a whole pedalboard full of analog pedals combined into one unit. Tons of extremely usable tones, very easy to tweak on the fly, comes with cab simulation, and has the ability to save presets. There is still a little bit of that "tone-suck" you find with digital multi units, but certainly not any more than you're going to find on average with anything else. If that thing had a talkbox setting you would never need anything else.
Dean Parks, also played on MJ's 'Thriller' album if I remember correctly and once was in a band called 'Koinonia', together with Abe Laboriel snr and Alex Acuna :-)
best moment of my musical life was discovering Tim, Dave Pensado, JAycen Joshua and warren Huart in the same time period
Dammit, Tim - as if your lead work isn’t astounding enough, your rhythm playing on this is soooooo good!
Awesome vlog Tim! Also, do I spot Doug Emery watching the rehearsal?
I sat pretty much the whole video staring in open mouthed awe at the faultless playing and professionalism of everyone involved.
Loved this last time, your joy in playing this gig comes through Tim. Thanks man!
Love how Marco slowly swivels around on that chair - and has that look we all once had when first hearing good music - wow this is something else, this is taking me somewhere.
The level of professionalism is off the charts! Amazing!
You really have to admire how bloody GOOD Tim is just an incredible guitar player how he remembers it all is amazing.
Marco is taking it all in. He may be young, but you know he appreciates the greatness that surrounds him.
This is a terrifying level of talent. Awe-inspiring and utterly alien to my pathetic inadequacies, what a wonderful guitarist and top bloke all round.
I love the amount of middle pickup strat tone you use. There seems to be a lot of players who never go there. That's a pity really as it has always struck me as a really useful tone.
Your channel reveals your skills, but this video shows how great you are when the pressure is on, with millions listening,
and your reputation just a missed fret away from disaster. Thanks for a great video!
Real musicians, real music. No PT editing this time indeed. This is art we’re proud about as humans. Thank you Mr. pierce and thank you everyone quoted here for making my life in music special, my heart and soul are grateful. With love and deep respect and admiration, Joe.
This performance is the epitome of good tone and versatility.
love the way you play ! I feel like studying my instrument every time I watch your videos
Tim is not just a great player but an incredible human being. Thank you for mentioning and giving credit to the other musicians.
Tim, Dean Parks, Leland Sklar, Vinnie Colaiuta, Luis Conte, Harry Kim and George Shelby (so effectively half of The Vine Street Horns), talk about a stellar line-up !
I can't begin to imagine the cumulated number of platinum records (and millions of records sold, and Top 10 hits) the backing band has to its name, possibly more than the whole audience itself...
You got that right! Its mind boggling 😮
What a incredibly talented musician Tim is! This Grammy Award show is the one I would watch. So many times I see comments there isn't any good music today. There's lots of good music out there, it's not pop or being fabricated and forced down our throats by the companies. I'm constantly browsing TH-cam for music that's recorded live and there are a lot of talented people and bands out there. They also self market, so be sure and support them!
Well said, sir.
crazy to see Dean using a BOSS ME-70 or ME-80 for such a large gig! how cool is that
I think is a ME-80
The ME-80 is a great pedal, no menus, all knobs. Instant tweekability. Glad to see that the pros use it.
@@JG-sherminator Is that really a boss me 80?i coudn't believe it.
9:00 wow that trombone was killer
Tim if I had just 10% of your talent, I would be classed as a good player. I can listen to your playing all day.
Boy the more I watch you Tim the more I am impressed and that is from someone who has played guitar for 50 years. You are one versatile guitarist.
Tim is the ONLY one I want to see at the Grammys!
It´s so amazing to see how all this musicians get their cue ... and just start and play so damn perfect . Wow ! I love it.
I love these behind-the-scenes videos. The practice, the prep, the chaos. You guys make it look so easy, and I know how hard it is. Great video!
That's a dream gig that can be a nightmare if it's not well rehearsed. Beautiful cast, amazing band. You must have been so happy to play that night.
9:04 don’t think we don’t hear you playing the lick kind sir :D
Great video. Thanks for takin’ us behind the scenes!
this is like the 92 dream team giving awards to high school jv players.
Tim as usual....Brilliant, Awesome, and Inspiring. Super professional cast of musicians. Thanks for sharing with us the rehearsals, and some of the event snippets.
Great content. I like seeing behind the scenes of pros.
Thank you Tim. Love the behind the scenes perspective.😊🎸😌❤️
"Got To Get You Into My Life" at the beginning! That was cool. And "Peg" for Jacob Collier! Enjoyed this video.
@@tomcoryell It's such a fun song to play--one of my fave solos to hop around on, it's so crazy and loose. :-)
Overflowing with the highest levels of professionalism and accomplishment. Everyone mentioned and shown--the best of the best. On bended knee; total respect. Thank you, Mr. Pierce, for the intimate trip backstage.
When Toto came to Argentina, we were waiting the band outside the sound check, and Lee Sklar went out first. He was very humble, nice and happy to see us. We hug him, and took pictures. Great day!
"Play Mustang Sally !!!" ..... ;-) ... love this Tim, great insight into sideman/session work.
that was awesome Tim.....very cool to see how you and Dean shared out the guitar parts. And how good is Vinnie? Insane.
I was at the afternoon Grammy ceremony that day, so I saw you and the band doing their thing. I didn't know who you were at the time, as I've only recently discovered your videos. But I remember thinking the guitar players were outstanding. And the band was incredible. It was a very enjoyable ceremony. Thanks for sharing this. It was insightful and also brought back memories.
In case all the casual youtube vids caused anyone to forgot what a monster player and consummate pro mr. pierce is, this.
you are the guitarists grandpa. you’re awesome, and i love your content and the heart you have.
I’m halfway through and curious how you and Dean decide who is going to play the lead on a given song? Does the musical director decide?
Qstick333 I’m pretty sure it’s written into the parts. See the Afrika tune in this video.
And now 2024…We've seen the AMAZING follow--up…Just incredible!……We appreciate you, Tim!
Love the new curtains and that fedora is a good look for you Tim.
Just fabulous Tim... thanks for bringing this side of the stage
This is the kinda level of playing all band folks should aspire to. That rehearsal sounded mint. Totally relaxed and where communication is never an issue. Also that’s a dream load-in!
"not quite my tempo!"
I love this kind of behind the scenes videos.
Sheezus thanks a lot Tim, distracting me with this precious glimpse of real musicians making magic for a real audience while I'm supposed to be boning up for my crummy dive bar gig tonight. LOVE these behind the scenes perspectives!
Theirs good guitar players and then there's Tim Pierce. His knowledge and ability is nothing short of staggering!
This is the big boy's club...all the music schools in the world and the handful of cats in this band are the best...what a club! ...and to play next to Vinnie all night!
Respect for you just went off the meter...incredible talent - a real pro...great insight into working musicians
Although I wanted to be a rock star when I was young, as we all do, as I matured I felt increasing relief that I didn't go down that road--and this video is a perfect example of why. What is required of you to even earn a dime in music is staggering. Whether it's the ability to instantly play any sheet that's dropped in front of you, or simply the ability to get along with people and socially network in the right way to get work, it's a life I'm glad I don't have to live. Meanwhile, in my home studio with my guitars and basses, I can play and write music to my heart's content, with no pressure at all. It is my passion and thankfully not what I depend upon to keep a roof over my head and food on the table. All of this is also my way of saying how much I respect musicians like Tim. He walks the walk.
Thats a great comment brother.
Better believe it, I did it for 6 months in my early 20's, toured with a Band, easier ways to make a living, why spoil something you enjoy, by having to do it as a Job, the same reasons, I didnt pursue being a Porn Star.
Well said
Good Evening TIM! . . I've been catching your Videos off and on for awhile. (Rick Beato etc.) You probably don't remember me from Albuquerque. I'm Philip Pacheco and I was a student of STEVE's for a number of years. I use to catch your gigs around town and you can count me as one of your biggest fans in those days! Now it's a pleasure to view your Success and volumes of music and stories of your Career Highlights. Thank You for being who you are!! Phil
This award show I'd actually watch. This is where the real musicians and the people who make it happen get their recognition. Thanks for showing us this!
Wow. Coolest thing I've seen in months here on TH-cam. Brilliant idea Tim.
Love the content, Tim, and thanks for sharing! Looked like a fun time!
much love from new mexico tim I was born and raised here in Albuquerque. Hope all is well
The most incredible thing about this video is 9 minutes in the kid READING A BOOK 🤯
not only that, noticed how he just paid attention immediately when Tim started playing those licks? that kid knows what's up!
I wonder if that kid knows that his dad is actually cool.
That was great Tim! very interesting. I love these behind the scenes vids, thanks for posting.
The beginning kind of reminds me of when I took my daughter and her friend to see some forever touring American band in the uk (I waited outside) and found myself in the very unglamorous carpark drinking a beer with the support band. Bit weird as I hear them on the radio a lot now.
This was very cool, Tim, thanks so much. I got to work with keyboardist Wally Minko as an audio/visualist almost weekly - we both went to the same church in West Hills - and for an amateur musician/guitar hack, just working the booth was a thrill and an education. He arranged and performed a Christmas show yearly that was always a sell-out. He'd pull in a bunch of his A-list friends, and it was a mini-version of just what you showed here - pure outstanding pro musicianship.
Question: Do they send you the charts in advance, or do you only see them for the first time in rehearsals?
Watch his videos about this gig from previous years. Equally interesting, but yes he does get them ahead of time
@@gaelenmckee6400 : Thanks very much for the reply! I figured he must see the charts in advance, but good to know for sure. I didn't realize he has other vids like this - will mos def check them out.
Great video. I can't believe how solid and easy you make this look.
