  • Is it me or does this guy look very similar to that one Jesus look-alike from Dinner For Schmucks?

  • Maybe its not fking impossible but it really is the hardest thing on most musical instruments :o

  • haha this is top fucking class dude! i wasnt expecting that

  • This is fucking great :D

  • 666 likes metal as fuq

  • true for bedroom players, but u can actually make moeny with guitar playing and even live from that, become session or studio guitarist or give lessons or become endorser for equipment or make good music which sells or play many gigs with a good band.just to name some possibilities. besides this, if ur very good u can do a solo career or u can make a living from playing acoustic concerts and writing instrumental songs. so its not f... impossible.

  • @guitar789 True. i actually compose music for TV (that's a BMI check), as well as do solo gigs at wineries. When I said 'Impossible' I should have said 'really difficult'. The video is just some goofy idea i had the seemed to blow up overnight, ha

  • @Toddity76 i thought it was funny as hell

  • @guitar789 If you are from a country that supports musicians like US or US or eventually US

  • Hey tod,. this could have been a lot funnier if you actually had some money!!!!

  • What a troll

  • This guy is such a troll...

  • @AuntJemima46 I knooow

  • Beautiful

  • Take that guitar to the pawn shop and you'll make some money on that

  • Become a session guitarist!

  • Awesome!!! Thanks for the laugh!

  • Michael Angelo is faster...

  • Didn't I just fix ur guitar? Kinda trippin cuz I was just looking for something entertaining while eating lunch .... saw the title and had to click on it ... then I was like wait a minute - I just worked on that guy's guitar ... what a small world the internet can be ...

  • @jjkenny1967 HA. yess you did, this very guitar. this video went viral over the weekend, it has almost 600,000 views on another channel. i did it a year ago as a joke

  • I play at near by places and make decent money..

  • I nearly died from laughing, so true haha

  • To all you rock star dreamers! Just work

  • The music business has become a do it yourself business - i see youre holding a BMI statement, so, you do know what youre talking about - humor aside - Nowadays if you buy a guitar you better buy a computer and software to start 'cataloging' all your ideas from the start whether you end up selling tunes for licensing or just becoming a better writer/player its all part of the territory

  • I just wasted 31 seconds of my life -.-

  • that's why i quit playing, don't want to devote all my time to something and get nothing in return.

  • @missmixxer You were missing the point entirely.

  • i did not see that coming lolololol

  • teach lessons, thats a good way to make money with guitar :P

  • Someone reuploaded your video at /watch?v=XVptre3Ixyk

    PLEASE REPORT IT!!!

  • Haha thats pretty funny. THe only way you will make money on guitar is if you know what you're doing. lol good yid

  • Holy shit jesus!!!!!!!

  • It's funny cuz it's true...

  • Love this.

  • my aim is to rock this world with my guitar...

  • No, you are wrong. Look me up on I-Tunes and then click on the books link. I wrote a short e-book on how I made money playing the college market. I'm not saying it's easy and you'll find yourself hating motel rooms. But the gigs pay well, the audiences are respectful, and you CAN arrange your schedule so you have enough "off time" to stay sane. Plus, it's a great way to build a following that purchases downloads and CDs. Good luck! - Larry Whitler

  • I CANT

  • o.o SO FUCKIN TRUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    

  • unless your band hits the big time as in commercial big time

  • @Thousandyearsofchaos Yess, but then it usually last a few years and people decide you're not hip anymore and move on. I'm quite to optimist aren't I? ha

  • What he talk from 0:20-0:31? I don't understand english very good

  • @VOLUME96db "But most of them can't do this one thing. So I'm about to show you the hardest thing you can do on guitar. ( 0:20) Make actual money. It's fuckin' impossible. Can't do." - something like that. I'm also not natvie english ;)

  • he didn't say it's impossible, just that it's very very hard. clam yo tits ppl

  • haha, i actually picked up my guitar before the punchline:)

  • My guitar teacher makes $60 an hour. Asshole is disrespecting Jesus's law...

  • Comment removed

  • Ya got me buddy, ya fucken got me!!!!

  • xD!!!

  • and maybe you dont need money likewise the othres say why would u need $ because u need slots in ur bed? man maybe you need to practise more then go on stage rooock and thats the way to get girls on your tail:)))

  • really? haha well its simple you can make moneyzation on YT wait hold on... you dont need any qualities for that

  • i play cause i lo the guitar... but i guess u´r right

  • the hardest thing you can do on the guitar is actually sitting down and doing the shit you guitar teacher gives you for home work

  • Glad you like my comedy folks :) I'm well aware that guitar isn't about making money. If one's goal is to make money, I would suggest real estate

  • @Toddity76 was that supposed to be comedy?

  • @kaverdinho it's not supposed to be... it WAS, ha

  • Guitar isn't about making money... But still this is true

  • its possible but very hard and i think its not the aim of beeing a guitarist to make money...

  • How to make 1 000 000 with guitar?

    - Start with 2 000 000

  • Haha I was skeptical when I clicked this video... but he's right. Even if you do make a little money playing gigs you'll probably barely break even with the expense of amps, guitars, strings, travel... it's impossible to actually make money

  • Awesome mate X-D

  • LOL thats funny cos its true

  • Ever heard of a pawn shop?

  • that was good. But can you play smoke on the water?

  • STARVING MUSICIAN !!

  • So do you make actual money playing guitar?

  • @Boganator4 sorta.... i compose music for TV.... which does involve playing guitar, but it's a lot of midi programming too

  • ROFL !

  • tabs?

  • I saw this guy at my church. He was nailed to a cross and looked all bummed out and shit.

  • Balls !! I make loads of money ,people throw coins at my head when Im playing.

  • THAT WAS.......BRILLIANT!

  • Not gonna lie.. That was pretty fucking funny. I was ready to say "shit i can do that"... but touche... that is something i haven't done. Well played, good sir.. well played.

  • LOL, good one.

  • BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH­AHA

  • i loled.

  • I don't hear a Shawn Lane lick. Something is wrong here.

  • @Fluffypopcicle And his pal Paul Gilbert did a trick...

    by pulling a rabbit out of somewhere. Lmao!

  • Lol

  • I applaud your humor sir, screw all who dont :)

  • HAH! awsome XD

  • It just depends on what kind of music you play & were you live. I live In Houston TX.If your in a Metal with originals your not going to make shit. But my friend is in a Metal cover band covering Old Metallica,Megadeath,Slayer,Ant­hrax & Pantera tunes & they do pretty good. The Cover bands that do country do extremly well. My old guitar teacher use to make anyware from $500 to $2500 a gig.

  • aah jesus :O

  • Making money with the guitar is more of a business skill rather than guitar playing skill. Although it makes it a whole lot easier if you play really good.

  • You can't make money from playing the guitar ? .. OK.

  • @LegendsofGH HA. no, it's just my stab at humor. many do quite well (that's a BMI check i'm holding, ha)

  • @Toddity76 Oh lol. I thought you was actually being serious.. fair play :P

  • @LegendsofGH ha, yesss. there's a lot of players who can do insane but mindless speed licks, lots of videos on youtube called 'fastest player ever' or 'insane shredding', and yes, they are fun to watch, but they are a dime a dozen. yet players like keith richards are the ones who make millions of dollars. for some it's not about money though, and that's cool.

  • @Toddity76 true

  • I fucking love this.

  • Well, you can actually do money whit music. It's hard to make money with your guitar when you're still thinking that one tomorrow you can be the new rockstar of the moment. But we live in an era where there's a lot of important schools and institutions for musicians, where you can graduate like a college and you can teach in other schools.

  • JESUS!!!!! LIVES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • lol

  • HAHA this is so funny and so true!

  • Making a living with music is next to impossible because everybody wants everything for free. Ever since the industry changed - name one megaband (like Led Zeppelin, Van Halen etc) without label support?

  • @johntg123 True. There's ways to do it.... I make instrumentals for TV and do film scores, others teach. But as far as being an ARTIST who does their own music, it's quite hard. You pretty much have to live on tour. It's more about ticket sales and merch sales than album sales. Going the indie route and self-releasing works too, i have lots of friends making money that way.... not 'house in the hills' money, but more than i expected

  • lol

  • jesus is alive only he would be a true friend to slap you in the face and humble you back to reality with the truth

  • @acidbath32 Nice name.

    

  • he is right,,,

    guitar players are a dime a dozen,,,and thats less than a penny a pice,,,,

  • inb4 viral.

  • lol

  • I think that if he cuts his hair and sell it,he'll get the money he's asking..

  • How did you do it then!?

  • Genius! Made me cry with laughter.

  • I used to be really disillusioned about not being able to make money from music. I felt better after I subscribed to lots of musician's advice sites, know I know exactly *why* I'll never make money from music.

  • this is fucking funny

  • the hardest is eat it.

  • haha i almost pissed my pants

  • I'm not even gonna lie this was the funniest thing I saw all day.

  • Is that a paycheck from BMI that your holding up?

  • lmfaoo he's completely right!

  • lmfaoo he's completely right!~1

  • Well played.

  • That's so true! It's quite impossible for 'bout 99.99 percent of us... me & my band included... that's pretty fucked up considering we're definitely not made for a normal job... which just keeps you bored 5 days a week... year after year... hell no!
