Casey Hopkins Lenny

[Carthsgtr]

Probably the best cover on youtube.

[speakerchic]

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[lilcocobean86]

Wow that was... Amazing! I love Stevie Ray Vaughn! He is one of my idols. It was very cool hearing you play one of my favorite songs by him. You did great!

[yahoochiewatchie]

Sounds cool..now relax and enjoy your hair..

[Tayplupe]

Great playing there-I reckon you are going to have a great future.

[Tohikuri]

[serkangul8181]

[KoekaZ]

I fucking adore SRV's masterpieces, I'm so glad i bumped into this vid.. amazing!

Loving the white lock ^^

[guardduck25]

that was beautiful

[njdkidd1231]

[socialexpirement]

Good job, check out my band. Youtube the male order brides fever

[sysphus13]

god bless these youngsters!!

[AndreyNagovicin]

This was uploaded 2 years ago. I'd like to see how he plays that now. That must be masterpiece. Hey, man, where are you?

[paulefty]

agreed.

[freakincage8882]

must learn*

[JoshwaBurke]

Its a baby playing the guitar 1000000 better than me =(

haha i'm only kidding. Well done sir.

[USPerformingArtsCamp]

incredible playing!

wish I could play it that good...

[philphie]

still got that patch on your head?

[balba201187]

I was thinking the same thing!!

I believe its called 'coup du fág'

[philphie]

lol

[yaja212]

rofl

[sinned8888]

u'v got an amazing feeling dude!!!!!

[JazzIVWoman]

Hi Casey!

Very sorry to hear about your dad. Mes meilleurs voeux à toi et à ta famille.

I hope you keep playing guitar because I love watching your videos. You're a great player. I wish I could be that good! You are a motivation for me! I'm 36, don't know if I'll be that good someday, but I'll try! You are the perfect example! ;-)

[Iloveozzy86]

Your amazing!!!

[Aestheticsguitar]

fuck, your are born with a guitar up your ass dude

[luckyddubber1]

I'm sorry Harry, to hear your dad past away, but I just want to say, I really like to here you play, you are amazing, your dad should be proud! :)

[longestshadow]

@canltalready ,are you suggesting that a person at the age of 14 cannot feel the music?....this piece has no lyrics so what are you talking about??

[fenderharry]

This was from when I was 15 I believe, but now I'm 18, it's been almost 3 years since this was filmed, a lot has changed since then and I like to think it includes my playing style, in that I'm not really in my SRV phase anymore, I've expanded my horizons... Still Stevie rules, and I love to hear and play this song, just a beautiful piece of music....

[LeSpAuL3194]

dude you were 15?!?!? no offense but u look like you're 9 maybe

[chinthee]

Casey, just came back after almost a year, because youtube was banned in Thailand. You're still on my favs. When are you going to post something new?

[fabou13]

this child is a small genius

[fenderharry]

thanks, but ummm I'm not a child anymore! I'm 18 now, I was around 14 or 15 during this

[CanItAlready]

Nice playing. But I don't think a child can really understand this song (really don't think anyone but SRV himself knows what the song really means). It's like listnening to LeAnn Rimes sing Unchained Melody when she was, what, 14 or so? She didn't have a clue what she was singing about at the time.

[luckyddubber1]

You make me feel good, so it can't be bad ;)

[andyboy713]

this kid definitely thought ahead... matching shirt and guitar? born performer!

[bloodtoll]

Are they keeping this kid in a cage? No wonder he plays so well.

[andyboy713]

I hate it when they put videos of young kids that can kick my ass at guitar... damn you talented kids!

[toastyplatters]

heh. I'm with you on that score!

[bcrich278]

nice playing dude kept up the good work

[leroy242]

good shit dude! hard song to play only thing i can say bad about it is the blonde in ur hair.

[LittleRampage]

I'd bone this kid so bad

[vmandanici]

This is proof that there is still child musician abuse still running rampant in America - you can plainly see he is caged in this room with a Casio keyboard, a hard wood bench and a Fender Squire. No wonder he got good on this song - you would to if you were sentanced to the laundry room. I am reporting this.

[freakincage8882]

yeah, almost all true musicians no matter how expierienced are kind (:

[scrench]

i bet you would smoke just about all the mouths that are talking shit and trying to bash ya , take the shit and use it to make your self better , don't try to be something that you aint (fake) shit talkers are fake , true musicians criticize in a way that will make you better ,

[dtpm60]

Very nice! I like this alot!

[jermakki]

Yea. Teres still hope. thank you man. keep Playin.

[SRVTS808]

nice, but what;s with the hair

[lydianModeX]

I really like this Video..there s PERFORMANCE!!! U have nice taste man!

check out this crazy duude! amazing solo!!!!

[GmIaBrScOoN]

[darkcomet112]

how old were/are u?

[dbriley]

I'm not sure about stevie ray vaughan still touring since he died well over ten years ago, although i agree the blues certain didn't die with him.

[Jonsie69]

yea umm whoever it was that wrote that blues died a long time ago obviously knows nothing about music.. umm at all lol stevie ray vaughn is still touring and so is eric clapton and it is still very popular i love it very much my most loved type of music its mostly all i play i like classic rock but dont listen to that guy cause he is wrong u can make it playing blues just do what you love i think your amazing for your age lol

[dbriley]

[fenderplayer22]

too bad stevie ray vaughan is dead...

[syn5643]

Come on man.Show the man some respect, SRV damn well deserves it. Hey, Casey great job, keep it up man, you'll make it with this style, I saw your solos, at church, awesome, I play in a church band too. Im more metal style, but I started out with dave matthews and srv! much love man.

[MoreGilmour]

Speakin of knowing nothing about music, did you know Stevie died 16 years ago?

[darkcomet112]

your a dumbass....

[hendrixistheking]

nice hair....blues wanking isn't gonna get you anywhere anytime soon it died out a while ago for a reason fun to wank but songwriting is where the money is at

[youbustubus]

wtf?

[kaikohekid]

Beautiful dude..

[dkdex1]

seems you woke or grew up i thought youd be a mega star not but we all live dont we case

[theforecaster]

Damn... I took note of your name so I won't be surprised at all whenever I hear it all over the music world. Keep up the good work man! Easily the best blues guitar video I've ever seen.

[dewitup91]

Great Playing kid! i call you kid cause you are. but you play the guitar way beyond your years..good luck!!

[hmongxboii]

amazing, the best Lenny performance i've yet to see. I hope im as good as that when I start

[ElroyJetsn]

Sweet, sweet, sweet! That's all i can say!!!

[lneme]

Very, very good!!!

[maddkat420]

BRAVO!!!

all i can say,

and that i want to see one of you playing in 2007

I bet your really jammin

Im 25 and have been messing with a guitar for a good 10 years, and you sound better than i have ever

cant waite to see you in some blues band somewhere, keep at it , you got the feeling for it!

[guitarfatstrat]

very nice .. srv is one of my hero's but it will be nicer if you add some of youre own style to it.. good luck

[gyneman]

it really makes me smile knowing that the younger generation understands and appreciates the legend that is Stevie Ray Vaughan. though he touched many, he was taken too soon to enjoy the lives he had impacted. he would be proud of you, just like the many who have commented on your talent.

[SnakeTreeProductions]

your a little mimic!SRV junior

[kanix999]

dude nicee playing! im trying to learn the scales and what not right now and im 17. how in the world did you learn to move on the neck like that at 15? books? vids? lessons? what?? got any helpful tips pleasse man lol. keep it up

[mc004296]

[phineas29]

10 points for listening to SRV at your age.

Coolest 10 year old out.

[fenderharry]

lol I just turned 15 when this video was shot. I wasn't even playing guitar at 10 let alone listening to SRV at that time. I am 17 now and look a lot older than I did then. thanks though

[phineas29]

I knew you weren't 10 haha, just exagerating your age compared to your skill. Very good stuff.

[Nirgulus]

hi man ! one word yeaaah ! damn it sounds just like SRV !

Cooool ! Just want you to ask something : can you tell me all the stuff you're using to get this sound (Amp-Effect-anything between you and the amp ?? )

Thx ! keep it up !

[padawan007]

HOLY FUCKING SHIT PINK FLOYD 2000

[DBfirst]

0___0

[londoncitystratty]

How much did you payed for that fender guitar?

[Caseman33]

You're an ugly fucker.

But you have some chops.

[zskeeler]

thats probably what they said to SRV.

[Caseman33]

Right on.

[alexorangeblues]

not bad at all

[bluesboy01]

really good playin man an nice tone.great feel too.

[purplehazedepression]

great !!!

[Cyclopz0rs]

I first remember this from new ground some 2 years ago.

I still love it.

[2manyguitars]

Very nice playing for such a young age. There are some jazzy chords in there and you got it right. Nice chops too man. Very clean playing and with feeling.

[smellyshiznit]

thats awesome.I've been playing for almost 3 years now and im not even close to being that good yet. Thats wicked tone too

[USATwitch]

kid you rock.. at guitar.. and you even have the faces..thats awesome..

[osanan]

Chimbinha Jr.

hahahahha

[gibson135]

Nice playing! That sounds great! I spent awhile on that song in my teens and man you play it great! Good tight feel to it.

[FidoCJ]

Man, keep on playing! With such a sound like this, you never want to stop! Great soft sound, great improvising. Young blues guitarists like this have such a poignant effect on the others. Keep on playing.

[koryb]

Wow little dude, that was great. I taught guitar for years and don't remember any of my kids playing with that level of skill. Keep on little dude!

[LyteWave]

Stop making us look bad, kid! Just kidding - Brilliant playing. Don't get a big head - practice hard.

[TYSOHN]

Prodigious!

[traCingskYnovA77]

OMG...Holy SH*T...this kid is flipping wonderful! Some one sign him!

[dirette]

Wonderful stuff. I'd rather watch this than a Red Wings hockey fight. Stevie Ray is looking down from heaven and smiling...

[ciarzo69]

Excellent stuff Casey. Outstanding actually.

[PoeticRocker]

oh frick man!! I WANT TO HAVE YOUR BABY!!!

[bluezlick]

[daviemcf]

The blues is alive and kicking with this young guy about!!

[xavsell]

Are mate, you really are awesome. That is some beautiful playing, much better than mine, and your probably half my age. You'll go far dude, just keep feeling the music, and keep on playing. Cheers

[SantAmbrogio]

[fenderharry]

Noiseless pickups

[fenderharry]

They were like $150 if I am remembering correctly

[SantAmbrogio]

you probably have already worked it out but $150 is about £80-£90

[chaz868]

[zebold]

Dear Young Master Casey,

E Street

[scrotumplisse]

Tristan dit :

un peu moins de reverb serait de bon aloi

got it ? :a

[Brainiac83]

Only 1 SRV, dont forget that..Bte, nice playin kido..I wish my guitar wouldnt fret buzz all over and so on , then id be fun to play this:o)

[etap91]

Adjust your neck brainiac, or maybe use lighter gauge strings, because your strings are obviously hitting the hitting the frets

[Brainiac83]

The problem is, that i usaly have very old strings on cause i have to go a long way from home to buy them.(Small town) :o/Have tons of rust on them too..Ill go buy a few packs of em and put sum nice on and see if i have to adjust the intonation on my guitar.Damn cheap guitars, look at the nice 1 this kid got:o).

[W00DS70CK]

Never was a true believer of 'reincarnation', however i stand corrected, its JH or SRV that found a soul to continue? ;-)

[alanstrainor]

very impressive, kick ass

[timmy47]

this was a really good cover of this song. how old are you?

[skollieboy]

[rich655]

[dizzack]

Holy Jesus that was fuckin' sweet.

[MikeRoelvink]

Great job friend Nice Guitar matching shirt ;-)

[farawayfaraway]

you're good man... nice tone on that guitar.

[fenderharry]

thank you

[coreyman562]

this is this best version of Lenny on youtube except for the orignal dude. how long did it take you to get this song? I've been trying to play it for a couple of days and i just got my first electric guitar about three days ago ive been playing for about 5 months but im really good. im gonna but some videos on here soon

[jeroenztube]

[coreyman562]

[sanders4617]

You look like your 11 or 12.. but you can play that guitar man. Keep it going!

[oldschool7]

Smooth younster! Great tone.

[kicker44]

That was pretty dang awesome. What are you doing nowadays if you could do that then?

[hobey84]

You did a great job of recreating Stevie's tone ...Impressive even if you were only 15!

[fenderharry]

I love Hendrix, and love to play Hendrix... In fact, Manic Depression, Them Changes and Voodoo Child are some of my favorite songs to listen to and play...

[farawayfaraway]

this isn't Hendrix idiot....

[fenderharry]

uh I know lol

[genocommand]

dumb hair

[fenderharry]

What a great comment, very constructive! I can't change my hair because I was born with no pigmentation at that part of my scalp, so I have and always will have a white streak of hair on my head... I really don't care what you think of my hair personally because as far I am concerned it really doesn't matter.

[xero1515]
