My Last Gig (for a while)

- Back in December of last year I went on tour with Noah Guthrie & Good Trouble for a short 10 day run in The Netherlands, at the time we didn't know this would be our last shows for quite a while and since then I've learned to not take these opportunities for granted.

![[UNCUT]"ทนายตั้ม" แฉยับ! ความลับสวรรค์ ใครคือ "บิ๊กเทวดา" ของบอสพอล l คนดังนั่งเคลียร์ l 15 ต.ค. 67](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/ru9fpSaUwdA/mqdefault.jpg)
After 30 years of bedroom jamming, I finally got on a stage. My local club has an open mic night. The owner doesn't care what you do, as long as it's entertaining and about 15 to 20 minutes. Many get up and sing. Some get up to do a standup comedy routine, etc. It's really a diverse line up. So I made three backing tracks, loaded them on my Jamman Looper, took my Line 6 Amplifi 150 and control board and my Strat and did a three song set. I got paid two free drinks and a half off my third. During my "set" I had two girls get up and dance, the waitress was also groovin and a table of guys were really headbobin' (not quite headbanging) That's it. My mouth was dry as cotton when I finished. But there was no errors, no string breaks, nothing went wrong at all. And I , for the first time, got applause. What you have done already Rhett is beyond most of our wildest dreams. So anything going forward is just gravy. Pure gravy. What you accomplished is never going to diminish over time, just get better. You will gloss over the things that annoyed you, the travel, the hotels, the cab rides, the endless set up and teardowns...all that will remain is gold.
So happy for you!
You did it bro..
Careful. It’s addicting. :)
THAT IS AWESOME. Congrats and well-done! Incredibly brave of you to make your first time a solo outing! Only one question now: when's the next gig? :)
Love this story! Made my day, thanks!
Loved that moment with Paul Davids! Such a sweet little exchange, that is the look I get when watching live music
Your work with Noah is really starting to make the genre grow on me.
Mike Fenton I’ve been wondering what would you call this genre, americana?
@@Livelaughlimpbizkit Roots Rock, or Americana.
@@Livelaughlimpbizkit worship
Chris Kilian worship??
Chris Kilian no lmao
Rhett, this is why "living in the moment" is so important. Making music with friends and getting paid to do it is never something to take for granted, although so many people do. Until it's over.
I really needed this. My band had 2 months of shows cancelled and this made me really grateful for what I’ve been able to do so far. You’re the reason I started Vlogging as well. Thanks Rhett! Keep it up.
Hi Rhett, been a subscriber for a while now. I'd just like to thank you for all the hard work you've put into this channel, in particular the gig vlog series. You're a fantastic guitar player and a constant inspiration for me. Because of this series, you've inspired me to want to play guitar professionally just like you do. Thanks again and keep up the great content.
Thanks Josh!
@@RhettShull Same. can't say it any better @josh Stevenson
Found your channel recently, binging many of the great educational and tour videos which made me look forward to seeing gigs again - from the audience (not a musician). It’s embarassing how much fun it was to see you tour our little low country and enjoy it so much. You must have gotten great advice because those cabins in the woods of Ermelo did look like a great base camp and it’s true - from it you can reach most of the country in under 2 hours…
Inspiring...That's the best word to describe your journey... Hope the best for the next decade!
These tour vlogs are just awesome. I love what you're doing with the whole channel and I wish you continued success!
I really enjoyed the gig in Groningen, and meeting you in person afterwards. I look forward to seeing you play in Hamburg. The value of live music will reassert itself I’m sure, especially after we’ve been deprived of it for so long!
Hi Rhett, was just looking at some of your videos and saw this one.. Feels like ages ago when we were fortunate seeing you, Phil, Noah and Ian play at Simplon. Actually the entire evening was amazing. Not only for us but also for other musicians who were at the venue to see you guys play. We also feel the lack of gigs but we try to make the most of it. And whether it’ll be here in Groningen or in the US I’m sure we’re going to enjoy your music together!! Thanks for sharing this footage and your thoughts! We’ll meet again!! And for sure with stroopwafels haha..
Your background harmonies and vocals are super great! Just takes it to another level
Glad to hear you're still well Rhett. I'm over here in Seattle Wa and it's heartbreaking to watch my friends have their careers pulled right out of their hands as artists. There's a lot of fear we also won't see any of our music venues survive this. Crazy ever hear those words uttered about Seattle. I know we'll all come out on the other end stronger. Thanks for also sharing your story. It's nice to see how we're all enduring these changes.
Subscribed. Dude, great channel. So genuine. I pick up a guitar every now and then so not great but your love of music and life is an inspiration. Roll on live shows and seeing you back on the road. Until then, keep rocking tge channel - it's awesome 👌
That message near the end of the video takes on a whole new meaning because of what's happening now. Wonderful video. Perfect timing.
Always a pleasure to see your videos. And, glad to see gaining confidence with the background vox!
Some great music. I hope you are able to hit the road again soon and that I get the opportunity to see you and Noah. Backing vocals are excellent btw.
@ Rhett Shull
Love the fact,that you enjoyed this small tour in the Netherlands,appriciating the country and the stages you played.
Sadly ,you couldn't play in Paradiso,Amsterdam and Luxor Live, Arnhem, which are beautiful places to play.
First @Rhett Shull video I ever stumbled across was the HX Stomp mini board. What makes me subscribe and follow (other than I really love the way you play) is you let us be a part of your journey. I'm learning the journey is so much more valuable than the destination. Thanks for letting us tag along!
Dude, I love the specs you rock! I'm very sorry to hear about how the crisis has dramatically changed how you tour and do live shows, but I hope you the best in opportunities and health!
Hey! Really enjoyed this! Will have to look for your next gig in ATL... will come check you guys out!
This is a great video Rhett!! The harmonies in Noah’s band have gotten amazing. Thanks and stay safe, man!
I used to play in a tribute band that hit all the same spots in the Netherlands, some of the club's are there are amazing. Such good funding for the arts and a massive appreciation for good music of all styles and genres. Great people and a lovely place. Keep up the good work Rhett 👌
Being Dutch casually saying ‘the show is only a 2h drive’ is really weird haha!
Hahaha same
Tell Danish Pete we said hello
@@warmcrunch3829 you better be trolling bro! Nethermark and Dantherlands aren't the same country!
BartdWmusic (yes I’m trolling)
Actually when Rhett say that, is when I stopped the video. All NL is about a 2 hour drive unless you're in one of the extremities like Zeeland, Limburg or Groningen :-)
Man that entire band is so tight. Can't wait to catch you guys if you make it to the Baltimore area this year. Awesome Vlog, as usual.
Listening to your last bit in the woods and thinking about what you said at the beginning of the video is very heartbreaking man !
Hope you're doing well during those times and, like you said, it will take time but we'll make it !
Thanks for all your videos ! It really helps so much people right now.
Keep on Rhett !
Love these touring stories. Us home studio guys can live vicariously through your videos. Great job!
Love your music and your passion. Hope your back in the saddle soon.
This is really cool to me, since I am from the Netherlands. It's funny to see how you think a two hour drive is great while we would say 2 hours is crazy far away. The bungalo campings, the forests, the small clubs, Albert Heijn To Go, it all seems so normal to me. Cool video! Really great to get an outside perspective on the country.
Ik woon al 13 jaar niet meer in Nederland, maar het is altijd leuk om dingen te herkennen. En om te zien hoe ontzettend anders alles geworden is. Behalve het feit dat een uur onderweg zijn al een hoop "poeh poeh zeg!" oplevert. :-)
@@hillie47 cool, waar woon je nu als ik vragen mag? Er is inderdaad heel veel veranderd in korte tijd!
We were there in Dordrecht! Loved the show. Real intimate, had a great night. Thanks and let’s hope it won’t be long before we can all make and enjoy live music again.
Good for you, man. Not many people can say...”I’m doing what I pictured I’d be doing when I was working my butt off to get it.”
Rhett, I’ve really become a fan of your channel the last two months, I am so into this series, man. It’s really made being confined at home much easier, thanks for everything.
Excellent video! I super miss seeing new faces & new places every day. Super exhausting, and that gig-butt 😝, but, totally worth it. It’ll come back around! ❤️
I really enjoyed this program. I’m an amateur musician, I play the piano and Keyboards, and terrible guitar. I’ve had a wonderful life in a totally different field, but have always wondered what my life might have been like as a professional musician. This particular show gave me a glimpse of that. Thanks. I do have a couple of friends who spent their life as professional musicians and they say they wonder how it would have been to have done what I did. Life’s so strange.
Thanks for the insight Rhett. Great guitar sound BTW
So cool you like my country and had I known around that time that you played here, I'd have tried to get to one of the shows, so inspiring!
Hang in there until normality returns and live the dream, you're a talented guitarist that deserves to be up there on the stage!
I live in northern Germany and as soon as I saw that little cabin you guys stayed at I had to go look it up because it looked super nice! FOUND IT! :D
Excellent vlog Rhett! Great to hear you folks play again.
Love the record you're keeping ! Look forward to watching what comes next. I'm into true passion of music. I listen to Dave Mathews,Dio,Louis Prima, Whitesnake you name it. Dig what you've been doing. Hope all is well.
These backstage journal videos have been my new favorite videos to go through while spending so much time at home. Thanks for putting up so many and for keeping them going, Rhett.
Nice work man.. I was in the Netherlands for a gig in early 2019! So much fun hanging out in Amsterdam and Utrecht! Supposed to be going back in late July but maybe not now..
A nice expose of what playing in a working band is really like. I'm thankful I can relate to these experiences. It isn't all "David Lee Roth" parties, not even close. Those that seek the DLR experience will likely crash and burn before they get close to it. It isn't reality. Reality is schedules, appointments, expectations, and hard work. The reality is even harsher than that, 90% of those that pursue this will fail to profit and fail to be able to continue touring. Financial responsibility is the number-one concern. Without that, any band is doomed before they get started. If you want to be a rock star, learn about finances and money first. Your odds of victory will be much better for it.
i'm old now but watching this record of your precious time took me back, to days and nights that will always be golden to me, smokey basement clubs and echo chamber halls, crazy times good times being history
Your video is motivating me to play the guitar. Bless you. Stay safe. Cheers from France.
Great vid Rhett, well done... Thanks for sharing...
Yall's harmonies really made me happy. Thanks guys
Fantastic video! I was hoping you'd post something from this run eventually. First time hearing you sing like this, and I knew you'd been working on it. Well done! I think it'll serve the band - and you - very well going forward.
Wonderful addition to your video library. Thanks as always for making the effort to produce these segments; they're really well done. Some professional video/film doc'ers could learn from your approach.
Oh man, just what i needed right now. Thanks for showing us Rhett, can´t wait to see you play live again
I’m a drummer and I just watched all of this. This is great. Thanks for posting. I never did understand your hesitation in the first place. Highly entertaining.
About 12 years ago December just gone the covers band I was in was coming to an end, we had all agreed it was time. The last six or so gigs we had, I put as much effort into enjoying the playing than I had done for a while thinking these could be the last ones i ever do. On the day of our last gig, which we were all looking forward to, although it was going to be a little sad, I lost my mum and so I (we) never got to do our last gig. I am so glad I approached those last gigs the way I did because you never know what is round the ne t corner. I'm 57 now and not sure if I will ever play live again, I have a small home studio and friends come round and we jam but nothing quite beats the feeling of a good live gig, may be one day for old times sake. All the best from the UK and I hope everything kicks back in quick when these weird times finish, stay safe.
wow, i'm pleasantly surprised at how good your videos are . I've come over from Rick Beato so i knew about your musicianship but have to say you have great video production skills too. Entertaining, informative, good technical quality. thank you!
Rhett, Great Job! These are my favorite videos.
What a truly excellent vlog, totally enjoyable entertainment. Good people, great insight & observations and superb music & musicians. Superb & thank you Rhett
Rhett, that was a lovely film. I loved it. Well done.
Just catching up with these older videos. End of year, end of decade, but the beginning of what you dreamed of. Not many people achieve this level of satisfaction with their trajectory in life. Cherish this time. Cheers!
This video bummed me out! its a great video but I REALLY NEED TO GIG AGAIN!!!!
Still.... Great video Rhett! and your backing vocals have really been getting better! keep being awesome dude!
15:06 dean town playing in the background, the sheer contrast of music
I noticed it instantly
Thanks for sharing those moments. I’m following these “Road” vídeos as it was a Netflix serie. You should consider to edit those, you have great (real) stories here.
Love your vids man...as a musician getting ready to go to school in august to get my degree in music it makes me so hopeful and excited for my future✊🏻
Man this is so inspiring, I'm also studying music and hope to get where you are one day
Great stuff Rhett! I not longer do road dates, so I'm living vicariously through your vlog. Keep doing what you're doing, and thanks for helping to keep real music alive!
Thanks, Rhett ... I really like your style, attitude and, of course, your tasty playing. I have watched a number of your tour vids and find them very entertaining. When this CV-19 things dies off (it will) make your way to Hartford and I'll buy you some a coffee and a stroop waffle. Hang in there ... there's more to come ... thank you.
Great video Rhett. Thanks for putting this one together. Here's to a rapid and complete recovery so we can all get back to playing together!
Good work Rhett on the backup up vocals, you seem to be getting more comfortable with it. Adds a lot to the live experience.
You’re my No. 1 TH-cam person. I was so looking forward to seeing you May 2nd. Oh well. There will be other times. Thanks for being there for us and helping us through this mess.
this brought me a lot of joy tonight. Thanks Rhett!!!
Can't wait till we can all get back out there! Until then we can create, reflect, appreciate what we can, help others however we can and grow. Love to everyone out there, hope you are all well
the show in Zwolle was awesome!!! Hope to see you all play live again soon.
I have missed seeing you on tour. Thank you for this. I know you have to miss it. I am an old guy, I have a much younger friend and we play together "for free" once in a while and I miss that. Hope you back up on stage soon.
I really enjoyed your tone and playin on the slide. Nice!
Rhett That's cool what u r doing now, n hope u will still b doing that for a long time to come, peace bro
Thanks for sharing this with us. Playing live shows was the best time of my life, club dates and frat gigs and free gigs in the park. Even packing the van with my band mates was fun. Stay safe and keep well.
dude your new NOVA is awesome. you can hear and feel the breath in each note.
Hey Rhett, maybe you could do an episode about how to travel effectively especially when you have to fly. How much gear do you travel with? Do you check your guitars or take them in the plane with you? If you check guitars what cases do you use? How do you deal with power, 120-220 volts. I'm sure you can think of a bunch of other thing that come up. Really enjoy your videos. Cheers.
Hey - Great to see you on the mic, Rhett! The harmony sounded good. Well done!
Hang in there, Rhett, you and the band. You're doing what you were born to do. We'll all be back out there playing and enjoying shows, before we know it!
Vocals are sounding pretty good, Rhett! Nice work.
Love your content what ever you generate. Thanks.
Perfect moment for this video. Thank you.
That was so cool seeing you with Paul Davids. Sons from different mothers.
12:31 Paul Davids OMG!
Man! The Harmony in the group is sounding KILLER!!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻
This Vocals and BackingVocals are soooooo nice... I'm also a big fan of your Playing... keep it up
Smooth slide solo Rhett. I've always liked your slide style.
a nice humble sentiment there Rhett - we are all feeling the lack of gigs... goodonya
Ian is a killer drummer. Love his parts and vibe.
Rewatching a lot of these backstage live videos, I've come to this realization too. I'd love to jam with Ian (and everyone else obviously).
Rhett, that was an amazing insight and an inspiration for the future once all this Covid has gone away. Keep on keeping on! 🤘🏻🎸🖖🏻
So sad I couldn’t make it to the Dordrecht show... It’s fun to see some stages and greenroom in your video that I’ve played myself. Hope to catch you on the next Dutch run after COVID-19
rhett man thank you so much for your videos, and showing me and many others an insight into the world of being a hired gun! as a 19 year old guitarist just figuring out what he wants to do with his life, seeing you guys do this is super inspiring
Great episode Rhett, makes me want to go to the Netherlands.
Awesome, Rhett! Been missing these vlogs! Thanks man
Stay safe, stay strong, and thank you for the inspiration.
Hands down one of the best backstage journal, great job Rhett!🤘
This video makes me want to become a touring musician so much :)
Rhett, you’re a regular backup singer bud!! You’ve conquered your fear right on!! I’m trying to conquer my fear of messing up on stage. I’m a new guitarists I have a few gigs under my belt but still when I make mistakes I feel like I’ve let the band down because they work just as hard to make it right and that really bothers me brother! I’ve nearly quit altogether a few times because of it-but they don’t let me!
Man, watching this makes me miss playing shows! Can't wait to get back into the groove of things once all of this mess is over with 🤘
I literally cried out “NOOoOOoO” when I saw the title of this video, but I cant wait to hear and watch what you have to say Rhett!
We are not guaranteed tomorrow, live each day as if it were your last, for one day you will be right
Great timing on your release of this video!!!
