Brad Paisley and Keith Urban Should "Start a Band"

Posted: November 20th, 2008 at 5:41 pm  |  By: Chris Parton  

Watching Brad Paisley and Keith Urban have so much fun in this video for "Start a Band," it's hard not to wish they would start a serious side project and for us all to resist taking their advice. "When you're living in a world that you don't understand/Find a few good buddies, start a band." I laughed through the beginning and end of it, and the rest of the time I just sat there staring at guitar playing, which I'm sure only scratches the surface of what Paisley and Urban are capable of together. It's one of those videos that makes you just want to plug in and start wailing on a guitar, and then makes you feel really bad for still sitting there daydreaming. (I swear, I'll start when I get home). But most of all, it made me look forward to more collaborations between the two.

    This is a good idea. Better than sliced bread.

    Those two are like two little boys who skipped school to have fun playing their guitar.

    You can tell they really like and respect one another and they had a blast making it! It’s great to see them both put their killer guitar skills to work. I loved it!

    This video is the best ever and I know it will be one of the best videos in the CMA awards next year. My two favorite guys so you can be sure if they do a concert together I will be there!

    I loved it the first time I heard it, and now watching the fun packed video I love it more each time I play it!!
    Good job guys!!!
    And on top of this song, Keith’s new single “Sweet Thing” is a awesome song, very very good.

    Excellent! I’ve been waiting for this video. Can’t wait for Keith’s new album. Brad and Keith are great guitarists, however, Keith is the ultimate entertainer! Keith should have won Entertainer of the Year!

    “Start a Band seems to be the weakest song on the CD. My favotite track is “Les is More”. Do you know who that is a tribute to?

  • KEITH~URBAN~LUVR says:

    They r both excellent guitarists, but however, Keith is better considering he’s been playing since he was 6! Keith is freaking HOT in the video!
    This video is aussome and I can’t wait till it comes out on itunes!!!

    They both look so relaxed & look like their having so much fun. You can’t help but watch this video without a big stupid grin on your face.

    Keith is the greatest. He is the best. Love the video. Really enjoyed Keith and Brad on the CMA Awards together. It would be great to see them perform together again. I like Brad. But it’s Keith for me. The “best” in country music for sure. And maybe beyond country music. Kenny who???????

  • RedMaZ says:

    Posted: November 24th, 2008 at 7:07 pm  

    Kenny Vaughn…that’s who!
