and for the record, EDDIE VAN HALEN IS A LEGEN D. Stop talking what you know nothing of. Seriously, Mashiro Chan? You must listen with your ass and use your ears for finger holders
I ask this constantly! WHY THE HELL ARE THEY NOT ON VH1?! PLEASE GOD! JUST GIVE US SOMEONE! MAYBE EVEN GIVE US HENDRIX! I DON'T CARE! AS LONG AS I DON'T HEAR ANOTHER MAINSTREAM HIP HOP SONG FOR THE NEXT 10-20 YEARS!
Mr. Lynch is THE MAN. Take some lessons Mr. Van Halen, and someday you may be half as good. I used to be an Eddie Van Halen disciple until I started to worship the true God of guitar. Mr. George Lynch
@MashiroChan92 If you think Lynch is anywhere even close to Eddie Van Halen you are drunk. I like George but Eddie is a legend. No one in the last 30+ years has impacted rock guitar like Eddie Van Halen, that is a fact. Half as good???....please. You are either tone deaf or talent blind.
@johnnyguitar65 Sorry I'm the real person who owns this youtube account I accidently left mine online and well my uncle had to comment on stuff. I don't watch this sort of thing and I'm not into it sorry about that
I think George should invite me out there for a weekend mescaline induced hopey Indian jam complete with 12 oz sirloins,tons of beer and browning 50 caliber machine gun cook-offs.
You know all of the music vids posted during this encounter capture George freestyle soloing over a track playing through the headphones he's wearing. Watch the whole of the Key of Noise vid filmed at the same time - the rhythm track comes in halfway through and everything makes a whole lotta sense.
Incredible technique (wish I had that speed and dexterity!) but not much in the way of musicality. I know shredding fans will disagree. It's just not a style that appeals to me. Still, I'd love to have a desert setup to play as loudly as I wanted.
This shit is sick. I'm sorry to have to resort to that type of language, but this is incredible. He has a wall of cabs blasting into the desert. There's no way that the dynamics of that natural environment aren't captured. It's just amazing. Huge sound!
HE IS THE MOST EXPLOSIVE GUITAR I EVER HEARD.I AM NOT SAYING THE BEST, WHICH IN SOME ASPECTS HE MIGHT BE.BUT I LISTEN TO HIM AND I IMAGINE THE GUITAR DESTROYED AFTER HIS PLAYS.
The only thing that would have made this video any better would be a drunken Hunter S. Thompson standing a few feet in the background shooting shit with his massive gun collection, occasionally yelling "Take that MOTHERFUCKER!!".
See, this is how i want to retire. Live in the middle of nowhere, buy many extensions, and another 4x12 cab, and hook my head up to it a quarter mile away so i can blast on level 10. Maybe go one louder, to 11.
...people who use the word 'hater' ate ghetto chim chims...I think LYNCH is top 5 equal to EDDIE/STEVIE/JIMI...
...the desert is...the DESERT beachfront jammin is the thing man. but george can jam anywhere he wants...if a lameassd cop shows up just peg him in the head like Bill Cooper did to those AZ racist h0m0s...DOKKEN forever.

He sounds good. But what's up with is sloppy ass picking. He's to lazy to hone in on his picking skills. If he had better control I think it would end the world.
Haters: post your reply vid showing us all your great skills, amazing tones, and distinctive styles. Or better yet, just shut the hell up and go comment on vids you like. George Lynch's pinky is more important (and talented) than you'll ever be.
@supahz HAAAAAAA yeah ok, the guy is a total ripp off and has nothing new --never did to bring.He might be a nice dude,but he is average AT BEST. the guy is a 1 picked 45 hammer on -pull off pintch harmonics addict.I can play like this in my fucking sleep
Thats what im gonna do first summer of from work.. Buy two full stacks, but them outside, volume knobs 10 and shred like hole fucking summer, one thing only beside that.. ill drink. if i dont blow any tubes, ill buy a shittier amps next summer.
My guess is he's soloing over the track coming through his headphones - watch the whole of the key of noise vid - the track comes in halfway through and it all comes together.
Not something I'd extract the mp3 file from to play at the gym on the ipod, but just typical George stuff. You can tell George straight off the bat - he definitely is unique, whether you like his playing or not. But I do wish he'd ditch that stupid hat. Oh, and that's the craziest wedding ring I've ever seen, lol!
Nice Vid, liked it and won't say anything bad about it, i'm amateur anyway, but i can tell there is not even one riff of "Mr Scary" in what he's playing. The Title of the vid is says he's playing it.
To all you Critic's, you have no clue what your talking about. George can play like Vai, malmsteen, vaughn, anytime he was doing that when he was a kid. He doesn't want to be predictable. So thats why it sounds random. Before you start Criticizing go listen to some of his cover tunes he's done plenty. peace out!
@Bachnroller Lol funny you said that... All 3 of those guitarists you have listed were in the g3 tours... so was George lynch. But thats your opinion so it's all chill. My favorite guitarists (or league as you mentioned it) are Marty Friedman, Jason Becker, Slash, Joe Perry, Malmsteen... etc. lol though Marty Friedman has the biggest influence on my guitar playing and a decent amount of slash is in there too.
@HeavyMetalVagabond :s I originally got into guns n' roses and stuff... That's why I listed joe perry too. I orignally listened to other music and found out later about bands like cacophony and shrapnel stuff. That is why and :) I love his phrashing. I used to practice stuff from him and look through my tab books through his solos to steal licks (lol) and all that awhile back. :) definately a big inspiration when I play blues and rock stuff
I like GL's style. It's improvised and a lot of scattered stuff,, and sometimes it ain't pretty but then a sweet lick'll show. It's real, like EVH too. Not like the sea of tab players out there, who memorize stuff verbatim and it sounds so stale and like the next guy. Learn from these dudes, and when I say that, I don't mean go find a tab book. Absorb some of the feel and go out and find your own style.
How cool would it be to jam out in the desert like that!
Yeah don't really like this,just doesn't flow/come together well or sound good IMO.Maybe he indulged too much in the green stuff (he was smoking something in beginning,looking up at him) he just seemed to be getting carried away and playing random crap.I do like his playing normally,but not here.
New Neighbors ten miles away: WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT RACKETT????!!!!!!!!
Later on in town, "We heard some ambiant music playing in the night before last, you know anything about it?-man replies with cold voice: "That's just George Lynch up there a whalin' on his ge-tar, now you don't pay no mind to him, he's a god incase ya didn't know. I'm half crazy cause i was at one-a his gigs way back when, made me insane"
What a way to live in this stupid dream. Just let some tone hang out full blast in the desert then go have a steak and maybe a few drinks after in the cabin.
Saw him with Dokken 1989 Monsters of Rock: Rice Stadium in Houston. I was a senior in highschool at the time. Van Halen Headlined. 10 hours of metal partying and Lynch did not disappoint. There was a technical issue with equipment where his guitar cut out several times. I remember George "chucking" his guitar across the stage. He then grabbed another and went out in style ! Love those 80s.
...I want a house in the desert now...So I can "zone out" like George while playing. ='|
I've always wanted a house in the alps or some other snowy mountains though, come on that would be an epic place to loudly play your guitar...Except for the avalanches, lol. D=
George Lynch is a Guitar God!! One of the Best!! =) he's the reason I want to learn guitar. From the moment I saw Breaking the chains and hearing that guitar wail, I want to be just like George!! And I am only 18. Haha. =)
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Ok kids, this is exactly the reason why learning heaps of technique and theory does not magically transform you into a musician. Can anybody find a coherent melody in this? or harmony? or rythm? or even a bent note thats actually in tune? Shocking that so many regard this guy so highly.Granted his image is great, but thats where it ends. like his carrer did back in the 80's.
@richshred dude, this aint about a melody, hes just jammin and havin fun...im very melodic, but sometimes i do this shit..you would be suprised how many melodies can come from doin shit like this...you should try it sometime... no joke..peace
he's not recording nothing, he's just stretching his fingers,
he's just jaming and having fun, to bad the camera was rolling, but what the heck.
folks that are dissing him, and in the remote chance they play an instrument,
bet you that those folks arent clear in there tones half the time george is right here, his other jamming vid's are better though, he's just having some fun, not to be taken that seriously as some folks here do. see this as a warming up;)
Lynch is as good as he's ever been, he's just going a little nuts in this clip. His tone is super bright and dry which doesn't help things either. Lots of trademark Lynch licks in here, though. This video is 10 times cooler and original than anything I've seen Wylde, Hammett, Halen etc put up lately.
@kschumac zakk is like the most distinct guitar player around these days and can write good songs that sound like him considering black label pride and glory and all his ozzy work are original..guitar isnt about being some eighties delay shred guitar lynch couldnt write a real song to save his life i could sound like him any moment of the week
Ill Hit the Like on that bro. He's out exploring new territories...like Steve Vai. Getting in touch with nature, and in harmony with the elements...while melting faces. Lynch and Vai are very alike in that regard.
Look I am a huge George Lynch fan and a have been a lead player for 25yrs but this is not real good and to be honest something is off in this video Georges techniques are real A.D.D. which is a surprise for me he is not this sloppy either, For some time I have wondered if George has got some mental issues I hope I am wrong becouse he is a brilliant guitarist but years of fame can sometimes mess with the mind and he has allways been withdrawn.
@ThePhantomJedi Yeah, instead of feeling gratitude to share an intimate moment with one of the greatest talents in the history of the instrument - you "me too" a trash mouth nobody. Some Jedi you turned out to be...
Oh please, just get over yourself. Any current lynch vs lynch of old /watch?v=CWntxpcq9FI and its easy to see that he just isn't what he used to be. Still love him? Yup! Still respect him? Yup! Still agree with what huntermetal was saying? Yup!
@secretsaregood look dude as i stated in the statement I STILL LOVE GEORGE LYNCH BUT YOU IN YOUR NEED FOR CONFLICT DECIDED TO BLOW MY COMMENT OUT OF PROPORTION AND YES I HAVE BEEN PLAYING SINCE 86 SO YA I CAN MAKE THAT KIND OF STATEMENT BECOUSE I WAS THERE I HAVE ALSO WORKED IN THE MENTAL HEALTH FIELD OVER A DECADE SO YA I CAN GO THERE TO IF THAT DOESNT SATISFY YOU GO TO MY YOUTUBE SIGHT AND LISTEN TO MY WORK IF THAT STILL DOESNT DO THEN BLOW IT OUT YOUR ASS AND KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT
he's not trying to compose anything here - you're seeing a man who is just in a zone. he's just working out musically and so what if it's all over the place. again, he's in a zone mode. and to suggest that there's something wrong with him because he's more reserved than most guitarists, that's ludicrous. it's just his personality.
@huntermetal19723 You haven't been playing for 25 years or even 2. If you did you would realize that this is a warm up. If you are gonna catch yourself bashing on someone, especially a man that first proved himself 30 years ago - Post your VIDEO response with your superior performance :) You are the crazy one homey, put that hubris back in the closet..
George is one of the best.... And the theory thing... It's all based on your ear. You don't have to know Mozart to know it's good. If you play guitar, or any other instrument and it doesn't sound right... That is theory.
That is THE perfect guitar rig setup. A bunch of 4x12s blasting sweet, thunderous tone into the valley below, while you sit on a porch atop the hill with a good monitoring system coming through your headphones.
This guy is near the top of a very short list of the best guitarists ever, and I think it's pretty damn amazing how guys at that level got to where they are without theory. If I myself never took the time to learn a few things about music itself, I wouldn't be half the guitarist I am today... and I'M NOT EVEN THAT GOOD!!! So theory... take it or leave it... different strokes for different folks, but haters gonna hate I guess.
Lynch rules!!! nobody like him!!! gotttaaa love this video!!! wish more players were as creative as he is! hes def. my number one player! i have lots of favorites but he has got to be at the top! BADASSSS PLAYER!!!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
It's getting on my nerves seeing this sucker. He is a piece of shit that can't shred, compose, play clearly and improvise. He is one of the worst guitar players i have seen...
George Lynch, Eddie Van Halen, Eric Clapton, Kirk Hmmet, Edge, Jimmy Page, Zach Wylde, and Jack White should all start a huge monster solo in the middle of nowhere, thatd be sswweeeeettt
@RiMasta13 LOL! ok mr. im gonna do shit pentatonic licks over and over with crap wah effects, lol im retarded? take a look in the mirror, and dont be surprised to see a bicycle helmet.
@RiMasta13 It's funny how you can always tell a Megadeth fan from the rest. They are always the assholes who are ignorant and just say the same shit over and over. It's kids like him who give megadeth a bad name and make me not listen to them. Well that and Dave crying all the time.
just amazing ive been waiting for this video since i was a kid George ripping it up in the desert where he belongs some of us are just desert people and lynch is definitly desert best guitarist hands done inovative and just a legend on the six string LYNCH RULES period never been stale or boring like so many thiere is only one Lynch and then there is just everyone else
@nemogre its his families property. Its our near Palm Springs, and Idi do the same if I owned that property too ya??? Id just add MORE cabinets and MORE heads LOLOLOL! George ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!
@nemogre the desert is sparsely populated, and its cheap to live out there , i know friends that bought a cheap house out in the middle of desert its 125 degrees in the summer but you can play as loud as you want.

...I want a house in the desert now...So I can "zone out" like George while playing. ='|
I've always wanted a house in the alps or some other snowy mountains though, come on that would be an epic place to loudly play your guitar...Except for the avalanches, lol. D=

George Lynch is a Guitar God!! One of the Best!! =) he's the reason I want to learn guitar. From the moment I saw Breaking the chains and hearing that guitar wail, I want to be just like George!! And I am only 18. Haha. =)

Ok kids, this is exactly the reason why learning heaps of technique and theory does not magically transform you into a musician. Can anybody find a coherent melody in this? or harmony? or rythm? or even a bent note thats actually in tune? Shocking that so many regard this guy so highly.Granted his image is great, but thats where it ends. like his carrer did back in the 80's.

@richshred dude, this aint about a melody, hes just jammin and havin fun...im very melodic, but sometimes i do this shit..you would be suprised how many melodies can come from doin shit like this...you should try it sometime... no joke..peace

I don't know why you guys are disin him and sayin he's not as good as he used to be. He's just havin fun.

@minislash2112
thats right, indeed
he's not recording nothing, he's just stretching his fingers,
he's just jaming and having fun, to bad the camera was rolling, but what the heck.
folks that are dissing him, and in the remote chance they play an instrument,
bet you that those folks arent clear in there tones half the time george is right here, his other jamming vid's are better though, he's just having some fun, not to be taken that seriously as some folks here do. see this as a warming up;)

Lynch is as good as he's ever been, he's just going a little nuts in this clip. His tone is super bright and dry which doesn't help things either. Lots of trademark Lynch licks in here, though. This video is 10 times cooler and original than anything I've seen Wylde, Hammett, Halen etc put up lately.

@kschumac zakk is like the most distinct guitar player around these days and can write good songs that sound like him considering black label pride and glory and all his ozzy work are original..guitar isnt about being some eighties delay shred guitar lynch couldnt write a real song to save his life i could sound like him any moment of the week

Ill Hit the Like on that bro. He's out exploring new territories...like Steve Vai. Getting in touch with nature, and in harmony with the elements...while melting faces. Lynch and Vai are very alike in that regard.

Look I am a huge George Lynch fan and a have been a lead player for 25yrs but this is not real good and to be honest something is off in this video Georges techniques are real A.D.D. which is a surprise for me he is not this sloppy either, For some time I have wondered if George has got some mental issues I hope I am wrong becouse he is a brilliant guitarist but years of fame can sometimes mess with the mind and he has allways been withdrawn.

huntermetal19723 1 year ago
@huntermetal19723
whoa that's a heavy assertion to make on the man.
he's not trying to compose anything here - you're seeing a man who is just in a zone. he's just working out musically and so what if it's all over the place. again, he's in a zone mode. and to suggest that there's something wrong with him because he's more reserved than most guitarists, that's ludicrous. it's just his personality.

@huntermetal19723 You haven't been playing for 25 years or even 2. If you did you would realize that this is a warm up. If you are gonna catch yourself bashing on someone, especially a man that first proved himself 30 years ago - Post your VIDEO response with your superior performance :) You are the crazy one homey, put that hubris back in the closet..

George is one of the best.... And the theory thing... It's all based on your ear. You don't have to know Mozart to know it's good. If you play guitar, or any other instrument and it doesn't sound right... That is theory.

schwarg 1 year ago
This guy is near the top of a very short list of the best guitarists ever, and I think it's pretty damn amazing how guys at that level got to where they are without theory. If I myself never took the time to learn a few things about music itself, I wouldn't be half the guitarist I am today... and I'M NOT EVEN THAT GOOD!!! So theory... take it or leave it... different strokes for different folks, but haters gonna hate I guess.
