amazing fiddle player

[thefidlgirl]

Alex DePue is his name- he plays for Steve Vai now...

[Zack97ify]

0:25 =Awesomeness

[DaisyDoves]

OMG I loved it when he played Michael Jackson on 1:40

[BBug86]

BEAST

[maxfir3]

any one know his name?

[belvaar]

first of all, i'd like to see all the trolls that commented on this try to any part of this for 15 secs as accurately as him, and second...i plan on getting a fiddle as soon as tax time comes around....then spending the next 5 years learning to play the damned thing.

[Tenshiwing]

i fucking smashed that like button on his rythm

THIS IS AMAZING

[taylorzhnag]

NOTE: dont do that "kk" song on your violin. it destroys the string and bow

[7xJessie7x]

@taylorzhnag lol I'm sure with playing like that, he can afford enough bows to fill your house. :P

[Stoviecakes]

My parents let me pick an instrument to play when I was a kid, and I thought the Saxaphone was the coolest option. Saxaphone is badass and all, but I wish I coulda learned me some fiddle.

[josephw85]

WWWWWOOOOOWWW

[pRonOoBGR]

why he isnt going to a talent show?

[dedepamir]

Are people serious in thinking this is good ? Fast and furious playing does not mean good. Neither does drinking 8 pints of beer make you a good fiddle player.

"Awesome ", it is not!

[cutleryking]

@dedepamir he's actually one of the most famous violinists in the world...awesome he is. He's played with steve vai i think on some crazy show he ran.

[WhiteArson]

@dedepamir

Dont get all jealous. It's not how he's playing, it's what he's playing.

[nettyandsammie]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW...........­.................. wait a minite ........... WWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWW­WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW­WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SKILL!

[nefariousowl]

Holy (rhymes with spit.) Technical skill: 9.9 Personal Expression: 10.1. Dude's got some big brass ones, that's for sure. Thank you to the one who caught this on video!

[itwaslikethatalready]

I dont care what anybody says. The fiddle and/or violin is a badass instrument

[blkvelvetband]

awesome unique performance!!....how boring to be a carbon copy of someone else!.....you took this and made it your own.....and a fantastic rendition it is!

[Emanusmell]

Awesome!

[QWIMBS]

awesome... he turned the fiddle into a rock machine...

[dukenukembunz69]

i was smiling the whole time he was playing. bravo!

[dedepamir]

This is shite ! If you want to listen to a proper fiddle player then check out Dave Swarbrick - The Cuckoo's Nest.

[killianbanjo]

@dedepamir im just gonna go ahead and assume ur havin a laugh and that ur not completely deaf

[thehappyhippyo0]

[search116]

Which lonely heart is this

[sweetolddp]

i wish i could get this a ringtone..

[rainofsorrow]

How did a video about a fiddle player get so many comments about religion....tangents are awesome. Anyyyyyways....I wish this guys did parties. I imagine he would play a bitchin' version of "Happy Birthday"

[TVRFan11]

HAHAHAH, So True.

[xsamanthao2008]

this is pretty great.  i love it.

[yourstruelymatt]

this is the first youtube comment board I've ever seen that has nothing negative on it!

[mlunney9]

Because there's nothing bad to say about this video. He's absolutely amazing!

[Unshavenunicorn]

@yourstruelymatt you spoke too soon my friend

[Silvers1188]

you hear that sound at 2:00 ? that's someone's mind being blown....

[IJIZZMAGGOTS]

fuckin eh

[genderbender]

tears of musical joy! jesus christ.

[yourstruelymatt]

why do you have to say jesus christ? if any reason not to, then at least because he is god, and if you are an atheist, or of any religion, I respect that, so please respect my religion. If you don't believe that jesus is god, then even if he was just a man, why do you use his name as profanity? you may as well say "Abraham Lincoln!", or "Bob Saget!" either way, it makes no sense to say "Jesus Christ" as profanity.

[genderbender]

@yourstruelymatt I was referring to the fiddle player as jesus chirst. Because I'm pretty sure he is.

[yourstruelymatt]

@genredbender I am 100% sure this man isn't Jesus Christ.

[genderbender]

@yourstruelymatt how would you know? For all you know, you could be going to hell now. just because you accused jesus, of not being jesus.

[igdrig2000]

JESUS CHRIST! that just made the angels nut their fucking robes! God himself has a fucking hard on from that solo! throw that in youre fucking pipe and smoke it bible thumper! that was a bomb solo!

[itsmoir]

Bob Saget your gay.
