That was awesome, dude! I have a student that wanted to learn the song and while I've always enjoyed it, never had a reason to play it. The chords are simple, it's the nuances I was having trouble with. Thank's for the help. Got it!
Layoversea you must be kidding! This individual has meshed modern technology with classic rock music and did it tight.
His use of the double looper executed live (and to perfection mind you) is commendable.
His attention to detail is impeccable, he used his entire second loop to the most important part of the song... the cowbell! A strong tie to current pop culture (ala SNL).

@JustCallMeAndreW He used a recording pedal to record the main riff so then he can play it along with the chords.

Easy, guys... He puts his pants on just like the rest of you - one leg at a time
Except, when his pants are on, he makes kick ass videos.
