Caliente w/Jon Faddis

[jesemus33]

Yes...that little porky was destroying the structure of the tune all the time, he want a fight with MR big Pole....C´mon kid, show some good manners.

[rmtoyama]

Jon forgot music is about having fun! What a butthole! Mad skills but WHO DOES THAT!?? I hope someone reassured that kid that Jon's a little bit of a butthole!

[logansGT]

Lol @ that kid who owns a trumpet at 5:10.....you can fool some of the people sometimes, but you can't fool all the people all the time.

[Arborwaychet]

Seriously, why is it that all these topline trumpet players end up with massive girths: Artuor, Dizzy (lesser extent), James morrison (though recently lost weight), Randy Brecker - like Faddis started out a slim guy. That's a genuine observation ... though probably there are many facets to the phenomena - life style / eating drinking habits / even Freddie had a belly.

[overlordspencerman]

I HATE that trumpet solo, not Jon's, the other guy, he places all kinds of effects, and when he plays runs it sounds like he is just moving his fingers up and down in no particular order, he despite what he thinks is not Arturo, wynton et al, he cannot be clean musical and amazing at the same time

[hanspetersalentin]

Hi John..great that you did this ,,gig''....i can imagine how proud the guys were !!!

They will never forget !!!

[mvialva]

nice attempt for their ages, but the instructor at the least had the power to make it more musical by chopping down the solos by like 4 friggin minutes! way,,,,,to much solo time! there isnt too much more to say after a minute in a half that hasnt already been said in your minute and a half!!

[GMacDaddyTPO18]

I can't really tell why Faddis did that...?

But I did meet Jon a few days ago, and to this kids credit, he is a little bit, uhm...abrasive? (A dick.)

[jerec576]

Why is it all pro trumpet players get fat through their career? :(

[donhcd]

Doc Severinsen seems not fat...

[DocMcFluhry]

@jerec576 Lol, I'm not sure. But it seems to be a common thing.

[allandy4u]

yeah i hope people realize that these are teenagers playing next to a freaking legend. most people fight until they're adults to get that privelage. this is children interreacting with someone who made history.

[E72192]

you guys suck! i mean for goodness sake the kid has to be 13 years old playing next to the best trumpet player in the world and he sounded good. give him a break

[bopmasterj]

Charlie Parker said any more than 2 choruses and you're just practicing on the stand. Sounds like this kid has been listening to Arturo a lot. A lot of flash and fluff.

[fantasticH5]

give the kid a break. for a youngster he is blowing his ass off. i've heard much older players that couldn't do half of what he does here.

[mapemusic]

the young boy, who tries to play a trumpet solo is most of the time outside of the hamronic structure.I think he doesn`t really no anything about changes and only tries to make fast and high noises!

[ramcitytrumpet1]

I am sorry if yall dont agree with me but I am a music major and a trumpet player and when I was not impressed with the trumpet playing of that kid and I was embarrased for Jon this was a shame and I aint scared to say it both that african american boy and the latino boy was playing out of context and the latino boy was running out of things to play I think he just picked up his instrument for the first time that day and started playing I give it a yayyyyyyyyy...boo

[jesemus33]

this kid is so arrogant!!!!!

[jesemus33]

jon was pissed of....so he played without microphone

[allandy4u]

damn who's that stud on the piano! colombian hotness!

[tribukaribe]

wow i feel extremely hurt for this kid........the audasity of takin a long drawn out solo next to that human high note machine....... poor kid!

[jazzswfreak]

its not a drawn out solo

[simonejazz]

Faddis is the man!
