    Went to school with him. Saw him playing open mic night every tuesday at the restaurant I worked at. Nobody would go on after him so he'd wait ill everyone played their bit. Very classy guy!

      gamerserver1 He used to play at Bw3’s restaurant here in Steamboat back in the 90’s... He was just another local that could play guitar... he blew up and no one saw him again

    Saw him on my birthday many many years ago. Had never heard of him. I walked away very impressed and a fan. It was right after Michael Houser had passed on. Keller busted out a Panic cover and it sealed the deal for me.
    Thanks Mikey.
    Thanks Keller.

    I had met Keller Williams in 1995 in Charlotte NC after a Dead show around 2am in the parking lot of the hotel and he was playing some Dead and he asked if he could play some of his own tunes and just blew us away! this was back when he was selling his cd 'Freak' out of the back of his truck, bought one and turned a lot of people on to it. one of the guys I turned on to it ended being his road mng. Dave Scott, if anyone knows of him, he stayed with him for quite awhile. he played a friends birthday party, on his back deck. this was in the mid to late 1990's and have taped him many, many times.

    I worked at the BW3’s restaurant in Steamboat Springs back in ‘96... Keller lived here and played open mic night every Sunday night..he was just another local back then that could play the guitar...a lot of people doubted him but as soon as I heard him do the Sanford and Son I was like this guy is going to the big time! Then a few years went by he disappeared from Steamboat and before ya knew it he was on Panic Tour... nice work Keller! Come get some freshies in the Boat!!

      I just saw them in Ft Lauderdale. I wanted to see Leo for ages. I've seen Keller a few times before. South Florida is a little bit of a music desert. Amazing show that I won't forget. No loop machine or anything this time around. Just straight guitar and piano with some fun audience participation.

    This would have been around the time I first saw Keller live. Dude puts on the best shows. From what I remember of it, it was a hell of a good time in a small venue. He's still touring and I am trying to see him in July for the first time in 20 years and you know what? I guarantee he still rocks.

  • @stephaniesutton1746
    @stephaniesutton1746 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I was lucky enough to walk him back to his car after a show one time. I was just a fan, but we chatted about northern Virginia and Hampton Roads traffic like we were buddies. He was super excited about the homemade chicken dinner his wife had packed for him. Great guy ❤

  • @rossnipson4147
    @rossnipson4147 11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I like Keller Williams and really dig it from a guitarists standoint. He is clearly a freak of nature. If he could connect emotionally and melodically he would be a household name, but I really think he hides behind his insane chops and it is why you know guys that strum bar chords by just their first name, and if you heard of Keller it is because you were looking for real estate and clicked here or showed up early for a String Cheese show.

    I saw Keller for the first in 2010 at Starry Night Music Festival in Bowling Green Kentucky and I had never heard of him. But after he was introduced he went into a solo for about 15 minutes and it was as if my brain had completely melted. Honestly changed my whole perception of music.

    More than a decade later, and it still sounds fly as funk to me.

    This song is very technically impressive, it's got got a catchy chorus, nothing is wrong with it but it just doesn't give me the same super happy enjoyment feeling that some other songs he has like doobie in my pocket. This is a good video however to be like look at what a master of his craft he is. However the whole reason I wrote this very lengthy preamble is because despite that there is one quick transcendent moment that everytime I listen to this it's because I want to hear this part.
    After the first chorus when he stops playing guitar and whistles Andy Griffith, the part where he just quickly transitions into the second verse that says "rave girl..." I don't really know what it is about it but it just makes the hair on my neck stand up. It's so good.
