[BurnToastification]

Well I for one love the cover and love the shiny red pants. <3

[chris107m]

This is pretty good dude, Alot better than I personally could do, But what the fuck are you wearing? Shinny orange pants ftw. >:D

[6stringpioneer]

LOL sweet fucking christ what is up with those pants kid? are those......are those red leather lol, damn dude what a sense of style hahaha. on a serious note tho u did a killer job so i can't bag on u there. If I had 10 thumbs instead of fingers they'd all be up in the air for this video, unfortunately i only have 2 so i suppose you will have to settle for that ha..... oh yeah, and these \m/ \m/ ya get the 2 fists of metal as well my friend just for being ballsy enough to cover this.well don

[jimrox9000]

@6stringpioneer Ha thanks for the support. I do have guts but sometimes I lack in the overall talent department... have you ever seen that video of a blind guitar player with an orange guitar? I can never find the video but I saved the audio. I wonder who he is and what he is doing musically!

[CoffeeAndStarWars]

@jimrox9000 I'm not sure if talent is what's bringing you own here. I'm pretty sure it's the pants. WTF were you thinking.

[650hpreventon]

@6stringpioneer i have two black leather pabts, the first one was a fack one so i got holes in the back

[vflyingv197]

[ktrazzz]

[vaijoe]

cualquier pifia

[Juggalo21coyote]

Damn this is pretty bad ass! lol

[9winters5]

i heard that they couldnt play TTFaF live on guitar so they left it to the keyboard

[Atsukitaae]

man, sorry, but you don't play in rythm with the song, it's not the solo at all >.<

[DylliexSkye]

I heard Dragonforce made a shitty copy of this!

[jimrox9000]

@DylliexSkye Correction an evaluation copy of this! eh ehhh :o btw Canada rocks.

[scorpionsfatality]

@DylliexSkye SHUT UP DRAGONFORCE FRIKIN' ROCKS DUMBASS!!!!! >:(

[WootZillza]

Well you played live better than dragonforce... but thats not saying much lol

[squirrelhater666]

ju win? 0_o

[gabrielmorales100]

Dude that guy is fucking buff he has the right body to play guitar and be in a band NO HOMO xD Dude this was awesome seriously! i can't play dragon force for shit!!

[RandomMetalGuy666]

@gabrielmorales100 dont worry...neither can dragonforce :P

[gabrielmorales100]

@RandomMetalGuy666 xD thats so true lmao

[PunkRockStarFilms]

fuck the haters who ever say ur bad, they obviously dont kno shit about playing guitar

[MUSICFREAKSINC]

Did you get 100 bucks?

[jimrox9000]

@MUSICFREAKSINC no :/ but i would rather have 189,000 views on a video than 100$ dollars. Both is always nice though.

[jkvocalist]

@jimrox9000

wow, all those views..... ya famous........for being crap! Lol

[GiftigeFeuer]

i bet this guy gets so much ass

[MuirC100]

So you can sweep pick pretty decently, yet harmonic pinches are a struggle for you? :P Good job though, you managed to make it sound roughly like it which is better than most people can do (including myself).

[jimrox9000]

@MuirC100 I am actually the opposite of that. Sweeping is hard for me and the harmonics are easy. I was really tense in this performance. My right hand all started with downs and this was before I really got into paul gilbert. I have an album coming out in September I have some cool harmonics dive bombs on an instrumental track. Hope you can check it out :) Thanks for the comment.

[RandomMetalGuy666]

@jimrox9000 a few negatives.....you missed the easyest parts like harmonics and dives but thats ok..you said you were tense and i can totally understand that i play myself (dont belive me?..check my channel :P ) it sucks that the cd (or whatever) skipped and you did screw up a fair few notes but depending on how long you had to learn this....understandable but all in all good job and try to get even better at it and youll have people kissing your ass at school :P

[Atreyu7XJN]

DUDE UR AWESOME!!!

[jimrox9000]

@YTInterviews33305 is that alot better? Do i get a reward for being good? Isn't it better when I sound like everyone else? Your view is limited but now that I've done what you said am i correct yet? Or how deep would i have to go to make myself "good" again? Your comment isn't based on who I am it is based on who you think everyone should be. You just want to bitch and spit your words at me. Really you are like everyone else who made me post those things. No pleasing you little girls.

[jimrox9000]

@HellviewPopulation96 well it is how I felt. Your values say that it is more important that I be Mr. nice guy then to speak my mind. I practiced before the talent show I had a time limit and I was never out to be the best I have only responded to people tell me how it is so much worse than the kids in their bed room. This isn't even about the video anymore it's about being a pussy American like everyone else. I'll probably take this video down because you internet junkies are fucking cry babies.

[HellviewPopulation96]

@jimrox9000 Whoaaaaa...WTF is this? I wasn't even being an asshole. And it's true, a lot of Americans are pussies. Every country has'em. And I don't care if you take the vid down or not dude. lol

[SynysterShadows523]

You would of done better with an XBOX and a copy of Guitar Hero 3

[jimrox9000]

@YTInterviews33305 Done. You are right. I wasn't going to change it because it was how i felt at the time. But I saved it on my personal computer... since it is personal and not for the public eye. People don't start off jerks btw. ;)

[SuperNoobTroll]

i want to hear this without the track playing the music for you....you should include iPod in the list of instruments you've mastered

[jimrox9000]

@SuperNoobTroll There were no lead guitars on the backing. You are dumb.

[LadyCalen]

I have to say, you've got 'nads to try this (and wear those trousers), and it's pretty good considering, but goddamn you're egocentric. You point out the best parts of your own guitar playing and then try to tell us what rating we should give the video.... c'mon, who does that? That's hardly condusive to an "interesting youtube experience" if you're not letting us form our own opinions mate.

[jimrox9000]

@LadyCalen hey you are 100% right. No one does that. I don't get around to changing my youtube videos around and what not. I've always been "I don't care what they think this is my idea" but I am slowly letting go of that as time goes by. That said I almost want to keep it the way it is because it is part of my past. Meh, I guess I should just save it to a document instead of having it out there for the world to pick at. Let me work on this thing... Give me an hour and check back.

[heelhookgoessnap]

Fuck the haters pal. You killed this :)

[jimrox9000]

@heelhookgoessnap Thanks :) You rock. I have an album coming up in late september if you get a chance check out the song "lifeline" or "I believe in us" killer solos there!

[JavilikesMetal]

Don't you have a band or some shit like that? Why didn't you cover this with them? Seeing you out there sound weak by yourself it's kinda sad, but you had balls to do it i guess.

Also, nice pants btw. They do make you blend with the background; quite hilarious.

I'll give you a 3.0 out of 6 or 7, because five is too little and diminishing your score too much is dick.

[amicoolyetno46]

nice flute ya got there

[fata364]

it sounds like guitar hero 3 (legends of rock)

[souljadarko]

Holy shit... WHERE ARE HIS LEGS?!?!?! Oh wait his pants match the curtains....

[Jonintheattic]

@souljadarko JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJA The best of this videos?

This coment xDDDDDDD

[arturojed]

tocas igualito a Herman li ¬¬ (jejejej no es halago)

[deathkeeper1000000]

WOO flaming red pants match the curtains so its like a floating torso

[firepants20]

I like it, at least you can play it, I can't do shi. xD

[xXmaxythebeastXx]

Dude seriously im looking at this guy wondering how the fawk he can do this i couldnt do any better and neither could you so stop hateing

[Benwilson89]

jesus. this is terrible...



[Kimderlolige]

sorry but this is not good :/

[ramsessndvlrms]

i can do better

[tronicmanoz]

666 likes hell yeah!!!!

[CodyMcCoy13]

ew

[BeastOfOlympus]

Every seat that a female sat in had to dried with an industrial hair dryer afterwards.

[atari3200t]

@BeastOfOlympus because they pissed in anger at wasting time at this talent show

[Musicmaker703]

good job man.. most of the people here couldnt go on stage and play they would shit themselfs..

[TheColdBeerReport]

nice but u were kinda showing off even though u messed up alot

[ericbui22]

awesome man

[sicknesstocome]

Well i thought you did a good job especially since you were in front of an audience, that takes balls xD

[petruchon182]

suck me dick

[Arctica14]

@petruchon182 You speak no americano?

[TheBleuBlurr]

@jimrox9000 No, I should. I'm sure you've had time to perfect it.

[m0t0cr0ss17]

take off the latex pants. and listen to real music lol

[jmannunez]

"EVALUATION COPY" FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUU

[jimrox9000]

@HellviewPopulation96 Well you have some thought behind your comment. That said your attitude is about the same as mine. It has been a lot that has changed since then. I don't really care as much about how good I am against what I am doing with it. I am trying to enjoy it now and not make it such a big deal. Cause it isn't haha. It is just some guitar player at age 18 playing some song at C+ rating. (I don't know many 18 year olds that are totally cool either :-P) anyway Have a good one.

[HellviewPopulation96]

@jimrox9000 lol Well, well. Maybe you aren't such a prick after all. rofl Anyway, yeah, you have a good one too. =P

[Zairron]

Well despite what some people say it wasn't as good as dragonforce live, but it was still pretty good despite what other people say

[linkwitme]

THIS SOUNDS LIKE SHITTTTTTTTTTTTTTT FFs Learn to play before you just play a bunch of shit

[Plectra97]

nice cover :D why are people so negative? I mean, i'ts a good cover.. so why hate it and say it sucks?

[xXBeeDeeXx]

this guy SUCKS

[imacellphone]

THOSE PANTS, THAT HAIR, AND YOUR ATTITUDE NEED TO GO RIGHT FUCKING NOW

[Mastera5000]

what kind of guitar is that?

[jimrox9000]

@Mastera5000 jackson DK2 dinky 90s with screamin demon pick ups :D

[bushidojnp]

que merda

[EdrickWillis]

power stance?

[MrOzoraiPipo]

Not good

[FinestFilipinoX]

if the crowd loved that performance i wonder how the crowd would act to like some better guy

[Zero6106]

hey man. These guys giving you shit cause you didn't play it exactly right are just crying because they know they can't get through TWO SECONDS of it on GUITAR HERO!

BAM!

[afer95]

hey, that part in 0:38 wasnt played exactly on the same place.

in the original song its played an octave lower...

[jimrox9000]

@afer95 If i could change it I would :/

[fishinandjeepin]

10 bucks says he got laid after that show.

[agentcamo]

ag

[MrMorelloJr]

EVALUATION COPY ATTACKS AGAIN

[jimrox9000]

@MrMorelloJr lol

[Snapsa100]

omg... that was just perfect.

[evileyesinwings]

THATS CALLED FUCKEN TALENT......

DRAGONFORCE FUCKEN SICKS, BUT THIS SOLOW ROCKS AND U DID KILLER.

[clwnz777]

@evileyesinwings No.

I've seen better in person. My friend covered it for a talent show exactly as this guy did. Just drums and a rhythm guitar playing. Unique thing about my friend is that he improvised one of the solos. 11th grade talent show.

[MrNeilcomet]

dragon force, they suck, really bad, and all it is is effects, and whammy bar slides on the strings, so f*** dragonforce

[8000cheese]

hey dickhead haters, you try and do it perfect. Exactly

[Decoybrick1]

your rendition sounds better and not fucked up like what dragonforce does. why do you think no one goes to there shows twice?

oh an that lighting shit was funny

[Decoybrick1]

your rendition sounds better and not fucked up like what dragonforce does. why do you think no one goes to there shows twice?

[wahidiix]

DUDE! this was fucking awesome! WELL DONE! definitely get two thumbs up from me :D

[hellraidgr]

If I could play like a fourth of that I'd be thrilled. Nice job I like it, it's live and it's back in 2008.

[roynickle]

your guitar sounds horrible

[playswithknives9001]

Although it says in the info not to i must say that you play it better than dragonforce does live. Kinda hard to beat their re-mastered tracks that have been sped up but damn nice man.

[gunfire131]

THIS GUY ROCKS!!!

[MegaJackp1]

you kept making mistakes

[xnotoriousss]

lol ur pants :)

[edhammerforce]

is your guitar out of tune ?

[BossL16]

êr spielt falsch.

[TrayTheMoFo]

red pants ftw

[TheRoosterRedemption]

he isnt playing the melody of the song and not using the right notes and hes like 30-40 BPM off

[SuckMehDook]

nice pants.

[BboyFiZiX]

red plastic trousers ftw? :S

[goofy4life760]

at 0:26 i went "oh shit"

[DangerD205]

Did you at least get laid? Thank God 98% of your school have no musical talent.

[HASTMETAL]

EVALUATION COPY FAIL!!!

[applezauceman]

not to troll on you or anything but you use the wrong tuning

[pritvy666]

Evaluation copy lol

[ThEviLPiGeoN]

Evaluation Copy

[kkcute99]

I think he's fucking awesome, if you lot can't say anything nice, then don't say anything at all, and least he's got guts to go up there and show something that you can't do! so stop complaining i think hes great, so shut up everyone else who are complete stuck up's, you always look at the negatives its pathetic tbh! x

[red18warrior]

nice... its great dude..not just the playing.. but for knowing all the lead part.. hehe

[MarshaI95]

This is way off tune...i would have def. thought you were playing a different song..but good cover for whatever song this is lol

[xxxPinkyGSterxxx]

@MarshaI95 It's like the last... half or so of Through The Fire And The Flames... Imagine that...

[kickuass32]

i saw this a year ago and kinda liked it but u have much more skill than me wich im sad to say but u should have chosen a much better song dude lol master of puppets or hit the lights maybe? but ttfaf???? sounds bad if u won that show gcongrats lol

[jesusvalles54]

you definetley won those 100$, no offense

[a3755958]

彈成這樣還敢出來喔  要是我早就去跳樓了= =

[jordanazn]

I like your pants dude :§

[Punkkd001]

how the hell do yu doo that?!!!???

[VaiTrooper]

Nice nearly as good as me =) but this song isn't actually as hard as it sounds. Eruption by Van Halen is where it's at!

[TimeDivider]

EVALUATION COPY

[natapitapeta]

pure noise, no music =S

[tiamat5774]

Im not worthy, Im not worthy! To play an epically challenging song like that live, you must have a ball sack as big as two full Hefty trash bags. Good , bad, sucked, rocked-at least you had the sack to do it!

[reganblevins]

i needa get my self a pair of pants like that :)

[kirfnuffle]

Cool pants bro!!

[RossGeller79]

you say in ´the extra information:

"Mainly because Its the only real cover on youtube"

watch this

watch?v=2yf4gmhOpn4

and if you dont agree, because he mixes more guitars, try this

watch?v=H568JEUCuYo

i think these two beat your fucking damn ass up, because you suck a lot

[jimrox9000]

@RossGeller79 man neither are live neither are in 2008 stop crying about it. I am getting tired of talking to haters after 2 years!

[mrskinner93]

@jimrox9000 it's coz you're shit

[xix1shot1kill]

@RossGeller79 dont be a baby because you suck at guitar

[ian939094]

@RossGeller79 dude, your a jackass. this kid doesnt suck

[MrDreuger]

@RossGeller79 Someone needs some more education. "Fucking damn ass" makes no sense; it's like you threw in cuss words because you think it looks cool. "Because you suck a lot." Suck a lot of what? Missing a noun there. Also, like Jim said, neither are in 2008...2008 (again, for emphasis)...dude, at least look at the dates of when the videos are posted before trying to make your point. It's called "Attention to Detail." Learning these things might make you a more valuable troll.

[parsleysprigs]

@RossGeller79 Dude seriously who gives a fuck.

[Aaxofill]

Dude this pretty frickin sick

[NinjaFireProductions]

this is quite bitchin' my friend, quite bitchin' indeed.

[49ermaneger]

well u cant play Dragonforce

[Vainin1]

.........

[AaronAberzombie]

ok, i have a couple things to say

1. Your pants blend in with the background

2.You play it as well as dragonforce

3.Nice Job, and i think you suck

4.Did you get the $100?

5.This is out of pitch!!!!

[jimrox9000]

@AaronAberzombie its been done but not with an introduction before! :)

[AaronAberzombie]

@jimrox9000 what can i say im original... but really, i appreciate you showing all of the guitar queeros how absolutly overated this song is....

[parsleysprigs]

@AaronAberzombie That's funny because I seen dragon force live and they don't play this good at all.

[AaronAberzombie]

@parsleysprigs Wow... 

[therealrene]

nice pants

good playin too man

[sgfout]

nice job at least you got up there and did it!

[jillxbuster23]

damn your good

[bapawtiluone]

I like it but you shoud use the handle on u'r floyd rose to make it real

[davemustaine999]

Totally out of tune, man. Tuning kills. Gotta love outside talent shows.

[HBDRful]

Id totally pay $100 for that

[supershadow115]

finally, a dragonforce cover at a school talent show that doesn't suck, but is awesome. YOU DELIVERED (and are $100 richer) AWESOME SOLO!!

[esquimalt1]

this is really good lol

[al6s2491]

i believe your guitar needs a little intonation adjusting.is that a dinky?

[jimrox9000]

@al6s2491 haha yeah and your 100% right but i didn't want to admit it.  I found that out after the fact. Its really hard keepin the thin neck guitars in line so I am sticking with my strat. Yes it is a dinky early 90s

[al6s2491]

@jimrox9000 yeah tell me about it i got a randy...it's a cheap one but it's a thin neck guitar too dammit.

[bremp3]

your tone sounds sharp to me
