That 1 Guy

Frizz Permalink
Frizz Since there is no thread on this musical genius, I figure I might as well get it rolling. Best concert experience ever. Hands down the most innovative musician of this time.



With tunes named Weasel Pot Pie, Butt Machine, Mustaches, Bananas, Halfassed and The Moon Is Disgusting you know he's a shiny golden demi-god.

His instruments:
Magic Pipe
Magic Boot
Magic Saw

Look him up kiddies.
Score: 10

It's always a good time when the Magic Pipe is around.

MrJones Not to friggin' shabby. He seems like he would be great to see live, gonna have to keep it on the list. Thanks for the heads up.

Ya know it's like one of those things that, if you have heard a phrase or concept before, you are more likely to notice it's mention at a later date. I hope I overhear someone soon saying something about That 1 Guy because I might be able to separate it from that guy long enough to realize he might be performing somewhere nearby.

unreal. i am so so so glad that @Frizz and @CaptainPookie convinced me to go. he is my new hero. he is a flipping genius and an incredibly nice dude. his music rocks hard and is super funky, and it's hard to comprehend that it's coming from the Magic Pipe. i recommend that everyone go see him at the first opportunity. it's not often that seeing a musician perform live makes me wish i had known about it sooner, but he did for sure. hands down, one of the best shows i've seen, and there were only about 20 people there. easily the best $15 i'd ever spent in my life, except that i didn't pay for my ticket.

Frizz First saw him opening for good ole Buckethead. Then they jammed. Seen him about 6 or 7 times now.

Of course Cap'n would be the other weirdo to suggest him.

Yeah, its a killer show. I saw them during their previous tour together and it was awesome (my fourth time seeing That 1 Guy). Unfortunately they skipped Oregon this time and went straight to Washington from Cali so I wasn't able to make to one of their shows. Next time I guess.

harroldHOOD Permalink
harroldHOOD If any of you musicians were wondering, I got to speak to him during All Good '11 and asked him what the strings were tuned to.

The big "main" string is tuned to a low G and the string on the part of the pipe that spins around is a high C.

Rutherford_B_Raves Nice! Good work @Frizz That 1 Guy is f***ing fabulous. I caught him at the 10,000 Lakes Festival in 2005 (i think it was) he played a late night set after the headliner that year (that year i think the headliner was trey and mike with the beniveninto russo duo) and absolutely killed it. i had no idea what i was in for, but it was amazing and prolly still one of the best dance party style shows ive ever been at

That 1 Guy is the best name ever.
What are we listening to?

That 1 Guy. And his magic pipe.
What guy?! Magic pipe?
His stage name is That 1 Guy.
