[fireandblazes26]

[daniyellowjello]

@ittybittyblanka The "white kid" is also half Asian! Welcome to Hawaii orchestra, if you don't like it, then GTFO! LOL!

[Heelms]

Thumbs up for the cellist - the only one who seemed to enjoy Jakes music.

[tommlia]

that is brilliant!!!!!!!!!!!

[Pikadono]

You know that cellist was so impressed with Jake that he went out and bought a uke immediately afterward if he didn't already own one lol

[tempzombie]

I bet that dude gets all the chicks...I mean the head bobbing cello playing.

[tempzombie]

I bet that dude gets all the chicks...I mean the head bobbing cello playing.

[tempzombie]

I bet that dude gets all the chicks....I mean the head bobbing cello player.

[andrewvinh]

he's looks like he's 25 years old and he's playing at a high school concert. wtf..?

[asianinvasion95]

@andrewvinh well look at his drummer and bassist. they're ocviously a guest band or something playing at the high school

[daniyellowjello]

@andrewvinh He's contributing to a local concert, this isn't a competition.

[0Saaint0]

good video, dude. keep them coming. 

[rachellikescookies]

why are all they just like, sitting there. if i were there, i would've been head banging and tapping my foot etc hahah :p jake you are amazing! i don't think anyone really sees how amazing your performance actually is.

and yeah i love the expressive cellist dude too :D

[tomthumbtoo]

Am I Missing Something? This dude has a Whole FREAKING ORCHESTRA Behind Him, Who are sitting On Their Butts? I Do Not Get It: & poor Jake seems to me A BIT TOO IN LOVE WITH HIMSELF To be Considered Anything More than another TINY TIM. If I were him, I would use the orchestra and fucking SIT DOWN --- show some respect. I would rather see some blind street musician than this lost soul. just my opinion, but we have More!#! Than Enough Show-Offs Already in America. ~ttt~

[damagecontrol60]

@tomthumbtoo - ttt, if you loved Tiny Tim, how could you post such hateful comments? Tiny Tim was all about spreading love; he was pure innocence. As to the orchestra, maybe the director decided jakle should just play a 3 piece with the drummer and bassist (all adults, notice) who could keep up with him... Maybe the kids never jhad a chance to learn the piece, and Jake was guest! yes, props to the cellist rockin' wid' it, too! Jake is in love with the music. Does he have to be a statue? Sheesh!

[tomthumbtoo]

@damagecontrol60 "Tiny Tim about Spreading Love" Agreed: as for "Pure Innocence" = uh, You CLEARLY Never Met Tiny Tim! He was Hard as Nails, Honored those from Vaudeville who had come before him & poked fun at ALL Those Who Took Themselves a Bit Too Seriously. This Guy Jake, Tiny Tim would have laughed him off the stage.& Then Dedicated "Tip-Toe Thru the Tuplips" to him. Believe me, damagecontrol: I am just Trying to Set the Record Straight: My Comments not "Hateful"-U Love Tiny Tim? Me 2!

[fannamusic]

can't get enough of that beautiful piece of music.

[blindsaquib]

stephen chow.....

[redsfan123]

[whoaitsluna]

[whoaitsluna]

omfg the girl scars me D:

[tomthumbtoo]

@whoaitsluna omg! but Jake the scariest one of them ALL!!: the whole freaking thing scares me+ALL These Fools [posting here on YouTube] who Be In Love With this Freak Show. Just goes to show you, "You Can Fool All the People Some of the Time . . ."etc, Lincoln's View of America. & So HERE: 1 of those times. & So Many of You Continue to Fall for Media Whores Like "JAKE-THE-FAKE". O, just goes On&On&On--- this Relentless RIVER of Vanity and Fakery -- Piles of Dog Poop Poluting USA Media~ttt~

[FacebookFail]

they are all serious but this guy in background lol

[damagecontrol60]

@FacebookFail - Check out all the students at the end... they all break into smiles... during the performance the one dude on the right is rockin' but the others are probably concentrating on the musicality,. smiling inside, awed on the outside... dat's right

[lunalover22]

like the guy in the background funny :)

[kh2pro]

LOL watching the guy behind the dude is funny :D

[LifeOnReplay]

[frantastiche]

i meant the solo in the video from 3:18 on is from the song equator,but its actually not so never mind :)

[Psicosisjazz]

Espectacular, buenisimo Jake un virtuoso innovador fantástica su música y el estilo que le otorga a las interpretarciones de otros autores. Gently weeps es una de las mejores a mi gusto, en esta ocación, sublime, y genial la resolución! 10 puntos!

[frantastiche]

that solo's from equator right?

[Trumpetman123]

what camera was this shot with?

the quality and video is awesome

[WTkiller]

@Trumpetman123 CANON 5D MK II? awesome!!!

[evilmunki54]

it does look pretty epic, the background is blurred too, is that because of the aperture setting?

[aznboy1707]

the camera is so great it almost looks like he's on a green screen :D this is so amazing! Jake rocks!!

[txsphere]

Wonderful video. Thanks for posting.

[Cognac1220]
