Gonzales vs. Andrew WK Piano Battle Pt. I @ Joe's Pub

[MicroNuggets]

No competition, Chilly wins this battle with ease.

[HeavenAnnexed]

I think a collaboration between Andrew and Chilly would be worthwhile. They're both talented and have a wicked sense of humor. Someone needs to make that happen.

[JoshJamesification]

This is fake, at the end of the real performance, Andrew W.K. bit a chunk out of the piano, headbutted Gonzalez, and played "Party Hard"

[HardKore5250]

Whos the best pianoist?

[rnrdemon]

@HardKore5250

Who's peeing on maoists?

[echoorbiter]

BC Camplight chews up and spits out both of these guys. Maybe literally.

[silentdrowning]

Both of these guys sound mediocre in this performance. IMO

[rnrdemon]

@silentdrowning

Both of your comments look similar. IMO

[silentdrowning]

Both of these guys sound mediocre in this performance. IMO

[turkeychuck]

jerry lee lewis is better :)

[GreatQueenFan]

if gonzales had also long hair he'd be beautiful too. not only the greatest pianist...

[mrplutor]

Purely based on chops, Gonzales comes out on top. But I'm pretty sure Andrew WK was aware of this, and was a pretty good sport to still take him up on the duel. But, part II is worth it, since Andrew is still very talented and they play beautifully off each other...

[nirvanafighters1224]

As far as techinality goes, Gonzales gets WK.

But can Gonzales say he can party harder than Andrew FUCKING WK?

I don't think so...

[ForeverFreeride]

@nirvanafighters1224 "techinality" huh? You some kind of expert? WK did the blindfold shit just as good & sounded just as good everywhere else. Just 'cuz he's a rocker don't mean he ain't as good as a player that isn't. It's OK to admit it, it doesn't make you look like you have no class or intelligence. Your literacy takes care of that.

[Balisong005]

i like the entertainist, great album, not because it's relatively unknown and trendy to be aware of it. it's great because it's clever, the lyrics are clever. thanks chilly.

[lennon54601]

Gonzales is pretty much THE SHIT when it comes to piano, you can't beat him

[4Dean3]

wow, gonzales is just on a completely different level to andrew

[d1ggitydan]

at many moments the crowd cheers while WK performs in order to establish a form of pity whilst he goes on without understanding this and taking it in seriousness.

Then again I have never liked Andrew in any measure possible..

[palmer880]

@d1ggitydan YOUR A DICK

[Thecurbstomper]

of course the guy going second will win, he can base his performance on what the audience liked about AWK's performance. He can also play crazier and at a faster pace, furthering his appearance as the victor. Although Andrew, if he is better, should have been able to out "crazy," and out-play this gonzales guy.

[joelindo]

@Thecurbstomper this gonzales guy is a hardcore motherfucker. andrew couldn't beat him (in anything) although he's one crazy genius and one of the greatest. gonzo is an obsessed maniac. that's no fun for him, serious business LOL

[Thecurbstomper]

@joelindo

haha, yeah i wasn't saying Awk could beat him, i was just saying that going first is usually harder than going second.

[LongLiveDeathcore]

some kind of williamsuburgh polka lol

[Bnswiss]

well what if they got in a FIST FIGHT!

[coolsims94]

WTF!?!?!? AT THE FIRST THE GUY GOES AWOOOOOOOL WTF was that for!?!?!?!?

[nobodyfromnowhere0]

Gonzales lui met la misère !

Gonzo is 100000000000000000000000000000­00000000000000000000000 much better, no dubt.

[murtikins]

Blindfolded piano playing is such a huge fucking showoff.

That said, he is one insanely talented hoor.

[HaloAceChaosLord]

At 2:25

Man : "I LOVE YOU!"

Gonzales : "And he's not even jewish!"

That made me laugh!

[ultimatenate]

AWK introduced me to Gonzales. Someone I never would have otherwise heard of. Awesome!

[FutureAbe]

gonzo ftw!

[Bnswiss]

@FutureAbe what does FTW MEAN?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

[finallyanunusedname2]

The guy in the blue wins.

[zemfour]

[Xinelli]

Awesome. Congrats to both of them.

[MCToeJam]

This Canadian appreciates you, Gonzales!
