  • sweet better than me by miles!

  • do you enjoy playing xD ?

  • YEAH very nice job, you rock

  • Hey idiots! This guy isn't 'old'...he may be 'old' if you're 25 or younger, but 'old' is a state of mind and you can BELIEVE DIS'S SHIT>>>when you're HIS age, you WILL NOT feel old...nor will you be old. Old is 70. Rock -and music altogether-is not just for the young. And your judgmental ass ain't gonna' be young forever.

    Show some respect for the musicianship.

  • hahah chill man , i totally agree with you music isn't just for the young(it's been here waaay before any of us) but the RHCP's biggest audience is probably young. So yeah I (we ?) know the respect I (we?) owe as fellow musician(s) or listener(s) to this amazing player, I (we?) certainly don't need you to tell me (us?)... back off

    PS : amazing cover !!! I've been listening to it over and over again: the solo is really good!!!

  • but the computer screen sure is old! LOL

  • YYEEEEAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!

    nothing more to say!

  • u rock grandpa i wish u was my grandpa u r so cool

  • Jesus Christ that was awesome. Best version of that final solo I've ever seen.

  • YEAH!!! grandpa

     YOU ROCK!!!!

  • Amazing job. Just the right amount of awesome at the end too. One day i hope to become even half the guitarist that you are.

  • man i dont like the way you set your guitar,

    it sounds not like Fru's guitar and it doesnt sound good in this song.

    but the final solo is great

    props.

  • fuck sake man whats with all the cunts leaving comments about this guys age and the way hes playing he does a great job on this loved the solo and everything his age could only make it better cause hes probs been playing alot longer than us younger guitarists and what more we gotta learn soo 5/5 sir well done

  • exccellent!!

  • coglioneeeeeeeee

  • great ;-)

  • Yea because your covers are sooooo much better

    /Sarcasm

    You probably don't even know HOW to play the damn guitar, and if you can, I dare you to post a cover of this song better than this one

  • you DARE me? Don't make assumptions, dickhead. I didn't say I was better than this old man, I just don't think he really did it justice. If I thought I could do a much better cover, and actually felt like it, I would. and thank you for telling me that was sarcasm, otherwise I would have been confused and not understood.

  • lol you act like a tool because you cant play the guitar

  • Upload your cover of this song and we'll comment it.

  • 1:29

    its not fast picked notes, its a unison bend with crazy vabrato

  • muy bueno

    great cover!!!!!!!!

  • FUNKY GRANDPA! :D

    great playing :p 5 stars

  • wooow Grandfather

  • OH YEAHHH PAPY you rock !!!

  • very good 5/5

  • play with some emotion :(

  • ancient comp in the background, but amazing cover!

  • hey!!!

    thats a sweet cover

    your not russian by any chance?

  • lol no hes from new zealand

  • very good sir 5 stars, only thing is just use your front pick ups more or bring up the middle or bass. Its a little to much treble for the chili peppers

  • very good, 5 stars.

  • What Ibanez is this?

  • It's the Red Hot Chilipeppers

  • Comment removed

  • seems like a bit of a susan boyle situation lolz

  • no es asi

  • i wish i would be like you in that age i mean 98

  • at the beginning of the song, I must confess that I doubted your talents as a guitarist. Appearances can be deceptive, perhaps you doing it on purpose to play with the same simplicity, perhaps not ... Anyway, you have your style and you play well!

  • wow!

    is that an ibanez guitar???

  • the one that says ibanez on it ?

  • xaxaxaxa

  • you are a master man awesome

  • cek that, respect to u sir, relaxing only... XD

  • Work on the sound of your guitar in conjunction with your amp. This is too trebley. It needs a nice warm thick bass to middle sound : )

    Otherwise good job.

  • good job sir

  • kick ass pickin' technique:D

  • not bad for a 88 yar old man.

  • have some rspect you fucking wankers.

  • you kick ass old man =]

  • ooo i,ve got the same guitar!!!:o

  • good job

  • yo ur guitar was really outa tune but good though

  • respect

  • Not bad, considering the guitar was out of tune.

  • santa claus, 5/5 good!!!!!

  • He plays well, he just doesnt use any of the effects.

  • i wish you were my dad

  • daamn!!! the solo was great it was so accurate !!! and the outro !! wow!

  • Duuude. That was great!

  • U rock buddy!!!!

  • even though i thought that was funny i've gotta thumb you down, lol.

  • a non emotion rendition?? with a guy supposed to be a proffesional these days having about 50 years on shoulder....man do not be funny.. joe satriani is now 49 years old and...yess!!! besides i am bored a little of his commercial play stuff ..he knows how to rock how to be an idol...so grandpa start to learn your guitar feeling...change some effects... it is cool.....NOOOT!!!!

  • you need to finish your improv at the end with a crash :)

  • this is good, i just wish you were in tune..the e string sounds out to me, or maybe it's just my speakers.

  • very god job!

  • my ground father

  • He wasnt "performing", he was playing and quite excellently if I may add. A lot better cover than most of the twits a fraction of his age that think playing fast and sloppy is good. Not only was his playing more articulate, it was more efficient. "Good for your age...."

    What a crock of crap.

    EXCELLENT playing sir. Bravo!

  • emotionlessman xd

  • nice...but i'd see you more in a black sabbath style.i think you've got more of that guitar touch in your fingers

  • why to hes age?

    anyone can play -.-

    john play more now than when he was younger

  • Well i guess you mean after 1988... Before 1988 he practiced 16 hours á day..

  • hahahaha nice to see your not sitting on your old ass! way to be active good job

  • best cover i have seen. you've got skills!

    cheers!

  • GREAT!!!

  • He rearranged this song, but he doesn't play like John, neither plays funky style...this song is played with a totally different groove!

    However not bad at playing...

  • oh my god!solo is fantastic!old man,you are incredible!

  • Awesome! I'd love to be able to play like that.

    Top class.

  • people are so easy to impress.

    he's old, playing a new song?????!?!?!?!?!?!?1

    omfg LOLZZZZZ XOXOXOX

  • So? you got a problem with him being old? if anything that will make him better cus it brings more experience and his own taste to it. Dont ever dis old people cus they got their talent already us young pl;ayers are still learning.

  • Great cover old mater,really good!!!!!

  • Old Man Still Got it! XD

  • not once in the decription does he say he plays exactly like john. no one can. leave him alone. good cover.

  • he is ma m8s dad hes 53

  • u look like obi wan playing the guitar nice work!

  • which version do you play?

  • NICE!!

  • YOU RULE GRANDDAD! KEEP ON ! ! !

  • you are great !!

  • You do know that John used an Ibanez during his early chili pepper days.

  • good to see the peppers' appeal spans the age gap. nice one.

  • My only suggestion would be to look a bit more lively while playing.

    But, it was good, and much better than I am on guitar :)

  • Nicely done, but definitelly not Your pair of shoes, as well as mine btw.

  • i think that was really cool especially the little solo bit you did at the end :)

  • Nice solo but i think your guitars a bit out of tune

  • haha i would love to see you play that better

  • If you think He sucks i think you suck more because you send this stupid masage

  • wish my gramps could do that...

  • why so serious

  • Nice man :)

  • 100 times better than the other covers because you improvised at the end on the solo which I guarantee the kids on who put their covers on here can't do, and because you are playing an Ibanez.

  • sell the monitor and get a wah wah

  • this guy rules and the looks like goerge carlin

  • nice cover,

    and a awesome solo !

  • amazing solo 5 stars brilliant

  • That was just brilliant!!

  • his technique is great hardly any uneeded movement as well i wish i was that good

  • i want tabs for the solo

  • Santa Claus

  • shut up k this guys plays way better than u i better

  • :DDDDDD

  • Wow... I think You play the solo better than anyone! (else but Frusciante)
