Mike Orlando Performs at Guitar Player's Guitar Superstar 2008

[telecaster0807]

guitar masturbation at its finest !

[THORNWOMAN]

No feeling. Just not a great guitarist. Any kid that plays scales & sweeps all day can do this. Now dont get me wrong, it takes discipline to practice that much to get this ability. Its just boring as hell to listen to non stop.

[winston67]

ok.. he kinda gets on my nerves.



[honestjbone]

i think hes very talented that shit he does is not easy at all...i'd like to see the haters do what he does, but no they wont...they'll hid in the back and talk shit all night long

[Daedalus233]

Bad. Very bad.

[ahvaimusicom]

@Daedalus233 ha you must be on crack, go back to your backstreet boys records.

[zxlkho1]

This is hilarious.

Hilariously terrible.

[Rickholyrock]

What a gas ! Now that's what you call letting it out !

[juswannawatchthings]

...i like this :L

[JPulido421]

Great player. Hard to look at him play, his nervous manic demeanor makes him look like he's had 20 cups of coffee. Non the less I like his playing.

[Lucicsux]

What Hall and Oates album is this song off of? This guy is terrible

[maaxterdam]

перебор немного, но круто!

bust a bit, but cool!

[reallg]

Man, Mike you slayed it. Way better than the winner and runner up.

[cfv22]

[paulofaccio]

[Grumberf]

[Grumberf]

[paulofaccio]

[awesomejohnnet]

Dear Mike, I can see you give it all you got and as a fellow New Yorker I am both very proud of your talents and really pissed of at the bedroom guitarist wanna be jealous loser cocker suckers who have written total BS hate post because they are swimming in a sea of inferiority complexes. bravo Mike fuck these nerds who talk big shit but cant play worth a a dam.

[comfortat]

how bout some nuance, dude?

[HiImJerry8]

one of the most amazing displays of technique and guitar shredding ive ever seen! bravo mike!

[jhump2431]

Three things, receding hairline is a bitch just ask mike orlando, This is 5: 15 of my life stolen by sonic shit. This is why 80's is where its at. What a wanker.

[GHGod1254]

damn mikes a fucking monster O_o

[REALCougarsRmales]

Watching this guy play makes me high as hell! What a rush!

[WarpedRealityNYC]

i know Mike personally for 10 years, he is an amazing performer,amazing guitarist,and amazing person...and he doesnt use cocaine.

[rossi3200]

wait wtf !:O i think his kinda raping the guitar a bit.....XD this was sick!:P

[asguitarras]

kkkkkk this guy turned into 330V kkkk ta crazy

[fractalwizz]

looks like a sped-up video sort of... but ive seen him live, so i believe him

[germancarluv]

very Spinal Tap

[grimobo]

what a wanking performance. almost embarrassed to be a fellow strummer. god this instrument can produce some jokes. versatile!

[jjjmanyo]

@grimobo Why? Because he can play extremely technically?

[ozzulas]

Clown!!!

[kichermann]

He stood 1m in front of us and it was so amazing to see him play... he played a fretless guitar :DDD

[derdufteduft]

saw him live :D

Very nice

[dntmetal]

this guy has fire in his hands and body, very pathetic commments here about mike orlando, the whole guy is explosive and i love to see a musician who put his heart at 100% on stage and mike did an amazing performance i love it!!!

[Maxx61]

Great guitar playing but a whole lotta bobble headin.

[lovescarguitar]

i think he had a job as a bobble head before he picked up guitars

[peemgee]

YAWN  deluxe.

[MrMeist]

he looks lie he did a WHOLE bunch of blow before he went on stage

[HardcoreDancr]

@MrMeist best comment I have ever read lol

[lovescarguitar]

that guitar must be made out of Lead. because we all know regular wood guitars would explode from that amount of shred.

[Shotgunmerc]

good lord it looks like he's been sped up while everyone else is in slow mo. lol alot of energy great job mike

[tonetubs]

Meaningless licks!

[TheSeeker133]

i cant wait till my tone zones get shipped in!

[sniperstewie]

that looks like what i do with my dick

[harrlj]

Great playing, but I think he had way too much Red Bull before coming on stage.

[newname363]

yawn...

[05rsx]

can this guy be any more annoying to watch lol. wank

[devouringone3]

Wow people don't seem to appreciate the view... me I see one big motivated guitar player, makes me happy.

[sydneyp96]

totally rocks no singer necessary his guitar does all the talking amazing

[GeetarRocks]

Absolute Shred Monster.. So cool to see someone rippin and enjoying them selves! Music is fun and players like this are super talented though still have fun.. Guys ever watch Angus Young?! He doesnt stop going nuts and rips & has a ball..Cheers to you Mike for shreddin but still havin a blast up there! You Rock!!!

[guitarbroker]

WOW¡¡¡ Is this a guitar contest or just the most ridiculous gig ever recorded in GP's contest ???

[Agresttle]

I saw him live twice and both times i assure you he raped...

[pennekre]

This guy's johnson must have some serious wank-rash.

[AlwaysKurtCobain]

All the comments are the best part.

[Ataraxia3X7]

what a ridiculous, ego maniac, tool...someone told me this was awesome...I now know I should never listen to any musical opinion of theirs ever again

[Adji87]

He is a bit nuts here like. I have his first album though and its great, hes very uch a 'trick' or 'flare' kind of player ,buthis album is very listenable and very enjoyable, i reccommend it.

[jjjmanyo]

@Ataraxia3X7 Why? Because he can have fun on stage?

[Hawaiianon]

Megaman X Theme Music

[aaronuws]

Its better to listen too, than to watch! Over animated!

[ice9001]

noise

[circleofpit]

this is a worse poser than michael angelo^^

[javanote09]

Melody, obviously is not in this guys music vocabulary.

[trex257]

He needs to tone down the spazmodification just a bit. He would be A LOT better player and have a better presence on stage if he wouldn't go fucking nuts the entire time.

[cougarcreme]

Excellent!

[dudelovesrock]

Fast playing is cool but nothing amazing. He does male some weird faces. I have to listen without watching. The song itself is pretty cool. But,Does that guy release he is balding? Sad excuse for a ponytail. Thats why I cut mine.

[spicbuddha]

i think genfan deserved it...ive seen all these clips, and she's the most musical and original, and her technique is perfectly woven into her STYLE, these other guys play well,  but it seems the technique is something to show off, rather it just being a natural part of the music...

even her acoustic tapping thing, while done before, doesnt sound like other guys who do it....

[mykopy]

Cocaine is a hell of a drug!

[swinevomit666]

@mykopy LOL

[minthailand]

amazing!!

[toomanygittars]

I wonder if he ever found that note he was looking for......

[Bill2Palmer]

Some "off's" between the "on's" would have been nice as in some more dynamics. It just seems to go straight to "11" and permanently stay there. Great playing though!

It sounds even better if you don't look at the video but just listen to the audio :)

[cobyup10]

Man what's this guy on cuz I want some lol. good playing man. Not sure I agree with Genfan winning it all. I mean c'mon which takes more work?

[ralvarezguitar]

Fast guitarists are cool to hear for a song or maybe two.

[LazrRok928]

WOW is right. Pure raw energy.

[johnnybeane]

Take a chill pill!!

Now im tired just watching half of that!

LOL!

JB

[waylay00]

LOL

[wascool100]

and first haha

[wascool100]

WOW!
