i'm from England and have come over to the US four years in a row to see them play... they are THE best band on the Planet.

Man, what a treat getting to watch you experience UM for the first time (as a full show, I know you had reacted to a couple songs prior). As someone that's been following them for a while now, it was fun for me knowing what you were in for while you had no idea. And how awesome that you went from this to sitting in with them less than a year and a half later! Keep up the great work you do, Michael!

I remember my first Umph show, but I really remember my first Bridgeless. Incredible track.

The sickest band out today period

I really enjoyed watching this. Thanks for doing it. Umphrey's is probably my favorite live act. I first saw them at Bonnaroo probably 15 years ago. Ive seen them maybe 30 times since then. They put on a hell of a show every time. Keep up the great work Mike!

The jam gods. Every genre. Every show. Every time. Cannot beat umphreys. Seen them over 60 times and every single time it’s the best show I’ve ever seen

Thank you so much for doing this Michael! This was an awesome show. Lots of fun sitting through this. This is by far my favorite band touring today and it has been great to watch you react to an entire show. Umph Love!

Love watching your reactions. Umphreys Mcgee I feel is a band that has a different genre going on in each instrument!

So cool to see someone who can fully appreciate this band, watching them for the first time, and getting their mind blown!

I like that you cross all genres of music. Appreciate your take.

GREAT show. Excellent choice

I discovered you're videos last night. The first time I saw them live was at this venue around 15 yrs ago. Umph Love!!!

UM needs to do a Michael Palmisano sit-in next time they're on the east coast!

You CAN pause the live stream. It will stop and start just like a normal YT video. It just wont be LIVE anymore once you do that. If you are just watching at home and are behind and want to catch up, just hit the Live button under the slider and you're back to where they are streaming live. You might think abiut upgrading your RAM and video card so it doesnt lag so bad when you stream a stream. You are watching this a second or two behind the audio.

And yes the Water they played in the first set was really good. That's a great one off local band does ok. Enjoyed your reaction to this btw. That's how I feel every time they play the peak. Just smiling watchen them go to work. Myers is an amazing drummer. They're all really good, but he puts it over the top. Come on up and see them at the peak some year. Worth the drive.

Thank you for this. It reminds me of my first show watching them. I knew absolutely nothing and my buddy swore by them. They are one of my favorite bands now. Being at one of their live shows is an experience that can’t be described. The level of musicianship that this band achieves is unparalleled. Seeing you break it down as it comes at you is great. Every show is different and each set within each show is different. They are on another level. Combine it with the lights and you have a true journey. So much going on and it just keeps getting better.

It's nice when bands allow you to do this LOL love the video, I was at this show \mm/

Love this Full Show review

Fav band

Look up umphrey's 46 and 2 and also their Floyd covers

Love your videos man.. you gotta get to a show and rent headphones, just one of many innovative things this band is doing..

Good stuff!! 🤘

It’s great watching you fall for this band. U get it

So, missed the live stream. But up late tonight catching the replay - gotta love the covid schedule! Mike can you pause live stream? There were a few moments when you were 'noodling' on the guitar and figuring it out (good luck with a band like UM and others who can improve like crazy) BUT.. Did you have some moments of 'wtf just happened'... and wanted to either take a minute to explain what you just saw or let us all know what musically just happened. Not all of us watching are heavy musicians in the sense of we could every play what were watching... but we love music. How much are those guys talking to each-other on stage and teeing up their changes vs. it just happening. YOU are an awesome musician and get music. We want to hear your interpretation of a what your hearing and what is actually going on in the musicians world to be able to pull of what they are doing. AND BTW you can rock it too so keep noodling more while your watching because you can have moments of your own WOW... Keep on keeping on man. And hope the life at home is going well!! ;-)

Great job on all the content on your channel Michael! Love the UM stuff. And killer selection of guitars...curious what amp you are playing through?

I lobe watching Mike's brain short circuit during the changes. Reminds me of me 20 years ago

Pumped to see these guys still going and people still discovering them. Haven't found any band quite like them since my 1st show in 2001. \mm/ @ Michael Palmisano The drummer is a great singer! Saw him jump in and do Queen's "We are the Champions" with Tauk (You should check them out) at a late night gig High Sierra Music Fest a couple years back......wow! Just wow!

Awesome video, big umph fan. You should do Utopian Fir 1/26/19 next!

Dude, everytime you do an Umph video I have to check my pants after.... Thanks for all ya do!

That reggae you kept hearing sure came out to play during the jam sesh huh??!! ❤️

Also for a good time check out “Doom Flamingo”. It’s a side project involving the bassist

"It's like Tool" one of the best compliments you can give a band!

I won a music festival in high school when I played In The Hall of the Mountain King on tuba. Yep, tuba! Got a scholarship to Rushmore Music Camp for that one...yeah, tuba! Ha!

Seen them almost 50 times now! Can’t wait for things to open back up from covid so I can enjoy them again

Brooks over at Big Crunch turned my struggling 80's JCM 800 into a monster rock machine. Highly recommend their work.

I don’t even play guitar but I love hearing someone who knows what they’re talking about describe in ways I can’t what is so great about my favorite band

I'm from their home town and went to high school with bayliss. South Bend Indiana!

I love watching you react man! Will you do a Chicago song, Terry math era?

Totally agree about the metal breakdown. Been to quite a few UM sets... sometimes you get those breakdowns and sometimes you don’t 🤷‍♂️ I love em all but I love the ones with the breakdowns just a liiiiiitle bit more haha

I don't know shit about playing guitar but watching you break shit down is very interesting to me umph love

Its so funny watching you have the exact same reaction to Umphreys that myself and my musician friends do every time we see them...always laughing about how they are beyond tight and the way they move from one genre and time signature to another without missing a beat. There are always "wtf!" moments when watching the boys. Welcome to the fold!

Big fan, keep doing what you're doing. The hand signals are a take off of Zappa each signal is a signal for a change in the song. I want to say key change but it could be section/riff change. And yes Jake started as a drummer.

Man, we have such similar taste in music. I don't know if you've ever heard of Punch Brothers, and I don't know if it would be your kind of thing, but you should definitely check them out... even if you don't record it. Thanks for the UM show! \mm/

I imagine maybe a guitar gate sit in next time theyake it to Baltimore.

These cats are chaotically technical. That’s the only term I’ve found to put any type of definition to what they do on stage. That doesn’t even come close summing it up. Is that Hall of the Mountain King!?

I know this is from a year ago. Umphreys played in Frederick recently. Did you get to go?

One of the coolest things about this band (there are a lot), is that they are students of music history and their influences are so insanely diverse, every time you hear something you think is another musicians influence, i can guarantee you are correct.

Micheal I think you feel the same way I do about these guys. It’s like how did I not have them on the radar sooner right?

penns peak is the best place to see a show on the east coast

Please watch Goose. So good.

You would love a good tauk set. They opened for unphreys at the show. Very technically good as well

I used to be a Jake guy when I was a young wannabe shredder. Now I've gotten older and calmed down and Bayliss is for sure my guy.

Check out some of the mashups they do of songs. Its amazing

Those crazy vocals around 1 hour are most DEFINITELY Layne Staley inspired. 💔

Here to get a kick out of Michael see his first full show. \mm/

I'm super jealous of the keyboard setup.... I regret that I can wear but one bass guitar, or suffer the consequences of a doubleneck... or tripleneck

My favorite part of this whole video is the sock puppet trey profile spamming the live chat at about 2:53:00

Mike is this your new favorite Band? good choice

You played my request for The Werks Galactic Passport on one your last live sessions....and you thought it was the band Galactic, which are amazing! Please do a full review of The Werks song Galactic Passport..

Wait... you do full shows?! Michael, you have to do WEEN live in Chicago. It’s Ween’s “The Last Waltz” All the hits are there and it’s just a straight up barn burner of a show. Guaranteed happy vibes for a week after watching it.

@Michael Palmisano here is UM's Rig Rundown if you haven't seen it yet. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/g552otZ12JPMm3U.html

Imagine this guy at a Halloween show.

I've watched so many of your videos and I love what you've done for UM including getting to play with them! One song suggestion, "Let's Dance" with STS9. Phenomenal live performance and one of the best ways to end a show! The energy is incredible. Love what you do and keep up the great work \mm/ kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ebR4dJifl7nZoWQ.html

Inspector Gadget for a second. Heehee.

Umph is the only death disco band I have ever heard.

Hi😆 xx

They do nothing but get better every time

Holy fuck that part about bringing a chick who has no clue what the hell is going on😂

This Friday, 4/17, 8pm EST, we would be thrilled if you did a live full show react of this epic String Cheese Incident Brooklyn Bowl show as it streams! It will be approved by the higher-ups. Thanks for all you do. nugs.tv/free/?showID=243

49:50 I thought the #1 known fact was that the saddest sounding solos and saddest overall key is D minor

His face when Jake goes Djent mode kzfaq.info/get/bejne/f9Cbm86aud-rpps.html

LOVE watching you react to umphreys!!! try this one when you get a chance. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rcidqcWDqtfQoXU.html Umphreys mcgee - hurt bird bath 2-1-14 Complex song with two distinct parts that I wouldn't even know where to begin to analayze

People who think McGee are better than Phish Crack me up.

Hey man you gotta check out the band Big Something. Their lead guitar is freakin nasty. Check out the song “The Curse of Julia Brown”

We must be into different girls. If she saw this show and was kind of like whatever, then this cover gets her in the mood and I'm supposed to miss the encore? Hell to the no.

If you think this is amazing, wait until you see them live.

You deserve to have these taken down. What exactly did you teach here, how to watch someone else's 3 hour video to up your views? Nah bra, nah.

Your target audience is probably restaurant workers and gen nexters. Asking them to donate anything right now is darn near impossible. Umphrey's is a good band... Even nice enough to invite "goose" to Red Rocks (cancelled due to covid19)... But even they are not going to be able to pull money from a population that is clinching every dollar right now. You need to find a better way to get your audience back. I know it has taken a lot of hard work to get to where you are and I would just hate it if your acting like Sally Struthers during a famine, ruins all of it for you. Unless of course you plan on offering the sick children some Phish. Your friend. Jeep.
