- Well we don't normally play Dueling Banjos as a rule, but seeing as someone on the train asked us NICELY we thought we'd have a go...

banjo somehow manages to be the goofiest and coolest instrument all at the same time
Damn no comments? What a shame
Wait
Amen
I cannot begin to explain how true this is
Once you watch some "Steve'n'Seagulls" that goofiness is in doubt. Just start with their version of Thunderstruck and you are hooked.
@@Muck006 oh yeah I saw that! I love how they didn't use any guitars
I have concerns that four lads from Cornwall play American bluegrass this well. The banjo work is especially well done.
It’s just bluegrass. Bluegrass is american
Cant surf all the time. 😂😊
Yep! Consider it stolen and we will never give it back.
@cane870 And where did the Americans come from? Oh wait..
@@DG-iw3ywbluegrass is derived of blues which came from the songs of African American slaves. You nasty Brits can't take any responsibility for this.
It took 7 years for TH-cam to recommend this to me . Glad it finally did
8 for me 😂
I didn’t know Anakin used the force to play the banjo like a mad man.
What do you think led him down the path of the Dark Side?
@@BigWalex 😂😂
Love how you can see count Dooku being pleased with his performance at 2:27
Anakin hated sand because it got into his banjo

"We're nearly at London Kirk" As dude was stuck on repeat kills me every time
Literally the best thing to ever come out of the London public transport
It's a Bristol to London train. It's not London public transport, it's a high speed national rail service, between 2 major cities 118 miles apart by train.
I dunno... I stepped off one of those trains once. 😎
@@gregoryclark8217oh, my bad. I don't actually live in the UK so I'm not familiar with transport there. But thanks for the info! Pretty interesting in fact.
If someone is walking around with a banjo, they’re actively looking for a duel
If they also carry a fiddle, you just know the Devil won't be around.
It's a fundamental law of nature 🤣
Touchè. 🤣🇦🇺❤❤❤
LMAO
He ain't fucking around next time i saw one I'm gonna fight him Banjo against my Portable Electric Guitar, the hunt is on.
Did i just witness a British individual go "WOOOWEEE" to another British individual playing a banjo?
Nowhere does it say they're British. They're just on a British train. WOOOWEEE
they know whats up.
We won the war bro we influence their culture now
@@jeffreymorris3002 sometimes the British are more southern than the south
@@jeffreymorris3002 this made me laugh
Were I on that train, being from Tennessee, I'd probably think I'd entered the twilight zone. Of course as a graduate of the University of Tennessee, the best rendition of Rocky Top I've ever heard was in the Village on a student trip to NYC. Neighborhood bar with about 9 regulars, the bartender, the piano guy played for Nipsey Russell when he was in town, and 3 UT students. When the locals asked where we were from they broke out a full rendition of Rocky Top and continued to entertain us thruout the evening.
This music touches the soul, you can't help but smile.
The bass player is sick of hanging out with his friends because they always bring their instruments and keep breaking out in to jam sessions everywhere they go and whenever they hang they make him carry around that massive instrument just in case they need some backup and he just wants to go out to the pub
Being a double bass player, I can wholeheartedly agree with this.
Tell me about it🙄 I reckon all guitar and fiddle players should be made to carry the bass for at least 5 gigs per year 🤣🤣🤣
@@c0ldesteeny being a double bass player, i agree, but slightly. only because of how expensive they are i cant buy one xd
Yeah but when you don't bring your bass and ya miss out on that jam it feels real bad man.
I'm drummer dude ಥ_ಥ
The teacher: And you better start paying attention because this is important-
The boys in the back:

Don't worry, it's music class. ;)

People don’t understand the responsibility of being this capable at bluegrass. There’s always a risk of friction fire, summoning the dead to dance, or spreading highly contagious “yee-yees”
Ah yes the witchcraft of frantic bluegrass and strings, summoning the dormant hordes of country bumpkins, befuddling all who stand in the way of the almighty force that is the musical instrument
yee yee ass
Not to mention having to constantly out duel the devil with your fiddle.
@@FBI_Overlord hair cut
Subconsciously did scream yee yee, I've been awake for like 5 minutes, I'm oddly like.. energized
The Banjo player has been waiting his entire life for this moment.
With how good his picking is, he’s been living this moment his entire life.
More like no
@@TheMusicLeak 😂
Solo time? hold my beer.....
We all do
I used to love playing this tune w/ Mrs. Sullins, God rest her soul.
This was actually the best duel I've heard in a while
In England: Epic banjo battle
In New York: Epic Sax battle
nice
Damn, it’s been more than 3 years and my comment got so much attention. I’m going to note it in my CV because I grew up since then. Crazy times!

The lick at 1:58 is lethal.
And so clean the man sounded like a piano playing for a moment
Saw these lads at the Sage in Newcastle a while back- brilliant musicians
I like to imagine while all this is going down the conductor just passed out and they’re on a speeding out of control train with frantic bluegrass playing while whacky hijinks ensue and they’re blissfully unaware and just having a great time

A great version of duelling banjos & brilliant playing by the banjo player & all concerned playing an instrument on this specific TH-cam on this specific train journey 7 years ago according to you tube at the time ( March 2023) & duelling banjos is one of my favourite banjo & or accompanied by a mandolin or a guitar tunes of all time!
I just love it when people do this sort of thing. Its so inspiring.
i’m obsessed with their little hillbilly screams
they are from south west england not quite hilbilly but yh
yyyyyyyyyyyyyOW!
Actually hillbilly culture is descended from British culture, if you look at Appalachia it was primarily settled by British miners
It’s just annoying really. Sounds more like a cat who’s had his tail stepped on.
Yeah I really hate those lmao
And in a moment, all them londoners on that train gained a thirst for the shine and looked fondly back on the Old Kentucky Home they never knew
Underrated comment.
Amen, underrated comment for sure lol
Might want to look into where that old Kentucky home got its music in the beginning.
And the shine is a poor replacement for uisge beath.
Best comment ever made.
@@jeeves6490 jesus lol I bet you’re TONS of fun at a party
Coole Aktion Jungs! 😊
Nach 25 Jahren wegen eines Unfalls, habe ich erstmals wieder mein Banjo in Händen gehalten. Ich fange wieder neu an und es ist verdamnt schwer, aber es macht Spaß. Es macht mich glücklich ❤
Wir brauchen mehr von euch Jungs ❤❤❤
Musik kennt keine Grenzen ❤😊❤
Herzliche Grüße aus Germania ❤😊❤
An Iconic movie and one of my favourites, smashing guys, well done!! 🙏🙏❤❤❤❤
listening to a good banjo riff is definitely above self actualization on Maslow's hierarchy of needs
hell yeah, tho maybe it makes more sense to be below it, you need to fufill the need of banjo before you can figure out yourself, but i guess it works just as well needing to actualise yourself to acheive the highest level of appreciating banjo
Id say listening to a good banjo riff is a key element to EVERY layer of the hierarchy
Ohh look someone’s been studying business at school…
Maslow's hierarchy of banjo
Best comment ever 👍🏻😄
0:05 that little girls face scared the shit outta me
...im sorry but, there IS no little girl....
I must be on meth again
She’s not used to seeing a banjo that far out in the wilds
Lmfao, the god damned grudge just getting spawned by the power of bluegrass.
She kinda looks like a jpeg.
Every train has two people with the same instrument that will battle it out to see who is the better musician.
I love this piece and this version is superb. I love a banjo sound and this guy is brilliant. Nice one truly quality stuff.
Imagine just trying get a quick nap in on the train then these guys kick down the door to your car
That would be a pleasant surprise
My nap can wait
When I studied in London, my home was Bristol. This service has a quiet carriage. I always used it. It were great.

That was just AWESOME. Blessings to you for using your gifts to make the world a better place than you found it. You have our 💜 💙 💚 ❤️ ♥️
Love this watch it once a month. You boys are really talented 👏
The hypeman going "wooo-OOH!" gets me going every time.
Same 😂
Yes you need a good hypeman
Was a great touch
this scene happens at 1:02
Wow❤
Man, if I could play the banjo that well I'd be playing it everywhere, on the , bus, on the train, doctors waiting room, funerals the lot....lol.
So pick one up and practice. The great thing about the banjo is a few simple finger rolls easily impress...lol.
The banjo’s actually an easy instrument to learn. It’s harder to get good at. So go for it! Takes about 3-4 months to get pretty decent
Being a left hooker doesn't help, but ill look into it. Thanks guys.
So what would you guys recommend as a banjo to start with?
@@britdragster an 5 string closed back banjo in your price range :)
I don't think I've ever smiled more at something. This is great
Crazy talent and smiles all around. That's a good day!
Nobody gonna talk about how that banjo lick at 1:57 was absolutely smoking? That man can play.
I just love these 7 Licks hahahaha
ohh you mean the banjo solo that was advertised in the video title? xD
You are therefore your comment makes no sense
oh so you mean, uh, part of the fucking song
@@rexjolles calm down lmao if u dont get it look it up
1:03
That guy who made the sound that was just pure gold to add to this masterpiece happening on the train.
I know right 😂😂
He did not get the credit he deserve
It was so cringe.
@@darkknight1604 was it? I dont think so at all at all. you need some more confidence dude!
His timing was impeccable!
Music is so powerful that it can bridge any gap between any people if... they want it to but it usually does
As a guitarist, im always impressed by the fast fingerpicking from banjo players.
love the jam!
The ladies too....( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
They could immediately hybrid pic on guitar lol
It's not that hard since it's tuned in open G and they tend to play with a lot of open strings and hammer ons and offs to make it sound harder than it actually is. I probably butchered the explanation but once you get one, you would understand it's pretty easy to pick up. Not to say there's not a lot of skill, there are some really amazing pickers out there.
@@cchavezjr7 i did always wonder about that because they often to tend very far down the neck and there fingers arent necessarily always moving that fast.
@@iplayzthegames6968 yup, and when they do move up the neck, notice they're only fingering a few strings and just picking the other ones open.
It's dang trickery haha.
Everyone was being buffed and healed in a 100 meter radius for 3 minutes while this cast lasted
Are you saying that... Everyone in that train were receiving buffs and heals? Those bards are on a whole another level.
@@victorjun2421 Yes, bard class is always a good choice
@@lilmoris1 At least for everyone in the party except the bard himself.
I fucking lost it at this, man! I watch a bunch of D&D content, but I happened to be in a music mood and this got recommended to me. Seeing a comment snap back to D&D just surprised and delighted me!
They were going up against a boss, they will need all the buffs they can
Absolutely brilliant a train journey you’ll never forget
Music like this , caught many of them people off guard on the train. And obviously made them happy for a while , bringing a smile. Awesome banjo-ing
You know shit is serious when the two people dueling start doing a duo instead, and a third one joins. (Along side the counter-bass. I thank that guy for saying about the fourth one that I didn't noticed.)
There are 4
Also that's how the song goes
Que bacan encontrar otro hermano chileno en estos comentarios 😎
Thats just how the song is played
The title of the song is dueling banjos
See the smiles they are results of the medicine they call music
Bass and treble heal every hurt
What a wonderful saying
Yeesss sirrrrr
Kill the coronavirus with it
you are factually correct. People with demensia can rekindle memories and feelings by music they mustve felt or heard in that moment
if you play music
Eu aqui novamente, lembro de ter visto pela primeira vez a 5 anos. Obrigado recomendações aleatórias.
That was F***** ing so good, have watched it 20 times so far,. just perfection 🥰
2:08 when you alt tab in a source game
So true
tf2
LMAO this got me good
god that's funny
holy shit best youtube comment i've seen in a long time
Love when the mandolin and bass come in, it all just flows so nicely Love the addition of the mandolin and bass the mandolin gives it that perfect train sound.
This may be my favorite comment ever. Everything I hear from this moment until eternity will now be weighed in and compared to "that perfect train sound!" ♥🚇🪕
They show us how definitely not set up it was
@@hitchjack that's why the video is titled "dueling banjos by flats and sharps" it's just their cover of the song, they're not pretending to be randomers who happen to all have instruments at the same time, they're just playing their cover of dueling banjos, on a train. i guess they were just bored or something.
@dafpj7536
You don't have to be bored to play music!
Absolutely love this music. Incredible stuff. 8 years old and still going strong.
Sounds great music has a way of bringing people together and making them smile
Whilst everyone was watching them, nobody saw the real rivalry: the cameramen
