Insane High School Talent Show Guitar Solo

[jstoner6]

Yes. I want you to travel back to the talent show in 2009 and try to play some clean or gay ass jazz. Stupid comment!

[dabowsman]

you been playin more than a year and a half

[Mr6stringchaos]

to all the haters on here, the kid is good at what he does. so what if some of the riffs have been done to death!! all riffs have been done to death one way or another..the kid actually has some talent and actually has a feel for the instrument unlike some of these guitar hero playing motherfuckers nowdays! give the kid credit where credit is due!

[BackRowRacing98]

One trick pony in my opinion. Just some licks, but this was awhile ago.

[LEANDRO41589]

i give him props

[TheHumanGodKing]

Shredder!!!

[MrPineappletomato]

kids alright basic metal riffs just added together nothing to original. good technique at 3:30 though. 

[Fr4gg3r2]

@MrPineappletomato I hope you understand that is delay, not an advanced technique.

[mjhe23de]

wow, just a whole bunch of taps i see no real variety or technique in this

[nateliebert]

he DEFINITELY got laid that day.

[KAWwrestling]

Holly Sh**t your awesome at Guitar

[Shawzaw1982]

Bad fucking ass!!!!

[smitty221905]

you should checkout Anti-Mortem guitarsts no doubt.

[MrPloopy111]

holy F!

[Sunscenegirl]

I bet he was one of the 'outcasts'. Now he's telling those bitches who's who!

[synlambert]

1,104 people deserve to die



[CLARINCORNETASAXOFON]

You SUCK

[MrSlaynn]

impressive dude.

[HashishUno]

The kids a virtuoso , the kids a savant.

While hes an exceptional guitarist, being a musician isn't about having the most skill. It's about creating good music. 3 chords, and some good lyrics can sound just as good as this solo. Music isn't about being better than the other person. He's probably more technically skilled than a majority of famous rock guitarist today, but why does that matter?

It doesn't. If you're a guitarist who thrives on being the best, then you might as well quit.

[WheelchairMania]

wut



[alfredsneade]

All you haters are just jealous!!! I'm 45 and not even 1/10th as good. This kid is going places. ROCK ON DUDE!!!

PS: He's not "ripping off" Eruption. Everybody knows it's Eruption. He's just covering it. Everyone plays covers, you dumbass!!

[WatchinEverything]

It really isn't that good, he tapped most of the song and basically everyone who play guitar can tap.

[XxicruffesionalxX]

he ripped of eruption and big sur soon,HORRIBLE TAPPING... tapping was more than half of the video... anyone can tap... this is not amazing...

[rokinsteven1]

Eruption II

[cky3kay]

He's got MAGIC HANDS

[publicenemy61696]

bet you got so much pussy after lol

[brandinator22]

dis is the best gitarist ever okey? okey

[PHantasyFreek321ffkh]

@brandinator22 spell better next time and ill get what you said

[chosenfool]

You trolls and haters are so pathetic! This kid is a billion times cooler than you'll ever be in your wildest dreams and has probably had more tail than you've ever jerked it to while watching Golden Girls in your mom's basement. He'll be laughing all the way to the bank, while you yell at your poor, elderly mom for not washing your favorite Star Trek t-shirt.

[TomSalvato1]

From Eruption to Big Sur Moon? This dude is fuckin pimp

[babyjeezsus]

although you an play fast, you ant compose anything to save your life.

[BlueDevilStrong1227]

For my talent I did the robot... somehow managed to look less douchey (not a word

[GrlzDoitBettr]

people always have to be so hateful... just be who u are kid! keep working at it!! ur gonna go do great things with ur life!!!!! much love!

[bandit25501]

This kid sucks only tapping no talent or feel sounds like shit.

[spunkets]

You've managed to become very talented at something thats been done to death, and no longer matters.

Good for you.

[Estiophobia]

I'm not trying to be a dick but it seems like if you know how to play the guitar then you have to have long hair and act like a complete douche while you play. i'm not saying they all do it but 99% do.

[vniesky]

Average at best, bit of flash no substance.

[afterthefox7]

distortion is easy try playing clean guitar, jazz.

[kyfire88]

@afterthefox7 Very good point...play next to a tenor sax and piano, clean and soulful and there is a real guitar player

[schep4813]

@afterthefox7 you must have not watched the whole video. 2:50 is where he switches to the clean channel.

[cky3kay]

@afterthefox7 stupiest reply ever dickweed

[gnrlherpes]

but tapping is easy

[mypancakeiscrazy1]

And then he got laid...

By salena Gomez and Megan fox

[superman46]

is he is this good with only a year and a half of playing i only have one question can i get the number for the devil becasue i would love to sell my soul as well

[AuronSurmount]

@superman46 Agreed.

[lclm1]

Hummmmmm.... i know he is Jimy page when he was young!

[postal83]

makes me feel good that after playing guitar for 15 years, im still just barely better than this kid. i kick ass at tee ball too.

[ShadowGhost777]

O.O dude its rare to find a high school that still loves this shit hahaha thumbs up for being a rebal >:P

[sss10627]

2:11 Eruption

[rsohlich1]

This is good, a lot of real talent. Keep rocking!

[LesKern]

Power-slides and pull-offs are so 1985. Not knocking him, it's just so fucking tired of vid after vid of the same thing. Or is it YT is getting old. Or me? Either way, please stop this madness. Every conceivable riff from every artist by every amateur has been COVERED 10,000 times. Please find something else, or wait, I know, CREATE something. What a concept.

[kidsTeachGuitar2kids]

@LesKern You are looking at a video that was posted 3 years ago.  Click through to his channel and you will see that he has created something. Look at the posting date and click through to his channel. What a concept that is!

[JDGreen916]

1.5 years? Please. You've got some good chops kid - no need to fluff it.

[prosteeze]

been playing only 1.5 years?? dafuq? i've been playing for 4-5 and i still can't play that stuff that well...either you skipped over all the boring basics straight to this....or you are chuck norris

[MrDeepakSubash]

if he puts on a white mask n a kfc bucket on his head, i'm sure he would remind me of someone great.

[howtokillawerewolf]

and then he got laid...by every slut in school.

[OU812ICRUNVS]

Excellent job playing!

[ForGermanTwo]

the people that probably say he sucks are most likely people who think that this is "easy"

[DefinitionIsGone]

If he'd picked up a Guitar years before he started... Wow. Some serious talent. Good luck in your fucking music career, I don't see nothing but up for you kid.

[ANTINAM]

niiiice eruption by van halen

[LanIost]

Love the non distorted part. What song is that from?

[theZoftime]

@LanIost Big Sur Moon by Buckethead.

[headthroughawindow]

@LanIost i think part of it is a solo from van halen

[JediKnight012]

nice exercises men you help me alot!

[screwsalliemaedebt]

1.5 years playing and 1.6 million views. How can you suck? 

[dkallisti]

who the hell says you suck? fuck beans with a side of wow sauce.

[mkrauh5]

kid is baked out of his mind

[TopppieJopppie]

1.5 years in the hyperbolic-time chamber that is

[danschmidt1995]

Cut your hair

[IGSTaaRI]

it's amazing but am i the only one who thinks although he's obviously a very good guitarist the solo is actually shit? same notes over and over then going up a whole step occasionally...

[JohnPhellps]

@IGSTaaRI nah i agree, though his technical skill is incredible for a year and a half of playing he lacks the creativity to write a good solo, there wasn't any good transitions or rhythm building it was repeating tricks he's practiced for hours.

[TheLastChary]

@IGSTaaRI I agree, its nothing special, just a lot of hammer ons and pull offs and a LOT of the same notes and he jacked a lot of stuff from other songs, idk if that what he was supose to be doing, but if not, then he just took parts from other songs

[bengalz432]

@IGSTaaRI thats called a scale

[Snowman531]

2:45 BUCKETHEAD!!!!!!!! :) NICE MAN

[Billlovejr]

hey, you're good! what is your method for learning? i got plans to learn to play in the future. thanx.

[prplno1]

Very cool , maybe there is still hope for Real rock and Roll yet !!!

[prplno1]

Very cool , maybe there is still hope for Real rock and Roll yet !!!

[srogers500]

Give this cat some credit. I'd never have the balls to stand up on stage by myself like that.

[MsMetalhead37]

Maybe its a stupid question...anyway are you playing random songs parts or its only improvisation??? =)

[thenextslash92]

love the little eruption bit in there! very impressive man!! I'd be surprised if you only played 1.5 years before this tho. I've been playing 3 years now and I can't do this yet. I can barely sweep lol. whether you've been playing 1.5 years or 15 years great job!!

[winxknight]

With that Level, 1.5 years is possible..... If you don't eat, sleep and do basically everything else. xD Keep it up dude!

[evanwilliamssourmash]

1.5 yrs. bullshit. so eddie practiced for ten for what? im pissed. ashley simpson. wheres the tape player. its like the 40 year old dude with the disease that makes him look 13. you better practice 12 hours straight or im...going to quit playing guitar. dammit.

[NCMCOMMANDER]

@evanwilliamssourmash Devoted to the cause. lol Cliff Burton practiced his bass for 8 hours a day, 7 days a week. And look where he was.  Plus, some people can pick things up easier. So I wouldn't be surprised.

[clint9780]

if you dislike this your fucking stupid

[wieglz9]

slash bro quit going to high school talent shows

[Pr3da1or666]

Truth is , rockstars dont get as much pussy as they did 20 years ago. TRUE FACT>

[lee443123]

@Pr3da1or666 Truth is I don;t get as much pussy as I did 20 years ago, SAD but TRUE fact :{)>

[Pr3da1or666]

@lee443123 good one :D

[69ingchipmunks8]

damn ive been playing 4 three years and im not even half as good as you. i guess bcuz im 11 tho

[epiCUtoobR1234]

He died that night. He drowned in pussy.

[LanIost]

@epiCUtoobR1234: awesome comment. It's true. I saw it in the paper.

[TheOriganalKid]

@epiCUtoobR1234 RIP

[ChicagoCubs1060]

@epiCUtoobR1234 lol

[wyskater94]

horseshit kids only care about how fast they can play. 0 true talent

and it sounds like shit

[EmmittTill]

@wyskater94 hes playing classicl parts in tapping form on guitar I'd like to see a vid of you playing something better.....

[GBC040609]

@wyskater94 Your crazy !

[wackywillie86]

@wyskater94 is ur vagina hurtin?

[TomSalvato1]

@wyskater94 finger tapping and tremolo picking takes true talent and amazing dexterity and finger strength.

[ROBBIEFORTHEWIN]

@TomSalvato1 at least it does if you want it to sound good, plus don't forget about how clean his sweep picking was

[ERKRAKANARB]

@TomSalvato1 no, the things you described just take constant grinding practice. talent is what you're born with, and it shows in composition. he didn't write anything. hes just playing scales really fast

[TomSalvato1]

@ERKRAKANARB He's got the talent to play what he did. Bottom line.

[apa1235]

@wyskater94

well lets se the songs you have. o you dont have eny

[HTownTEXAS77020]

Fuckin van Halen and fuckin buckethead talent

[bloodshred123]

whats the name of the song? its realy intreasting.

[bloodshred123]

dddaaammmnnn!!! that was good playing but i dont think some of the audience likes heavy metal o whatever u call it.

[pokefreak001]

this was ok, but i have to say, the sweep picking really sucked.

[fangPS]

wtf, I can't do that. And I play for 8 years.... I suck!

[age132798]

young bucket head, all tht needs left doing is for you to adopt a bucket and mask XD

[salamiswordsman]

Did you win the talent show?

[rwilsp53]

nice technique, but probably the most random and unpleasant combination of notes i've heard

[Potarnul]

Kid , i 'am 30 years old, i play the bass. if i played the bass like that after 1,5 years, i would have been really proud of myself. good job

[TheDacat77]

play a song, don't just shred the guitar. no feeling shown, no depth as of yet.

[churroman333]

you played this when youve barely been at it for 1 and a half years??? And you played like Buckethead?? dam! youre a beast, dude

[pillar7of7fabulosity]

you sir, you are a badass.

[ussoccerman88]

reminds me of buckethead. that takes talent

[mareckbamf]

Great playing, but year and a half? I don't buy it. Finger dexterity is not a natural thing, especially the pinky finger, and I don't believe you got that much in just 1.5 years of practice.

[suim2007]

Dont shred mannnn it's all about the bluesss, the feel, sick job though

[NoelyDeezNutz]

I only checked this video out because Miles sent me here....

[xRICHMONx]

It's all in the hair!! Awesome job man!

[JLUROCK]

I would say that this is pretty good for only one and a half years. And to all the people who say that this sucks, I want to see a video of you doing better.

[waterloo745]

awesome talent

[Heineken1712]

isn't that big sur moon at 2:46 ? great job dude

[foldijoseph]

where is the fucking heart???????

[2000transam100]

i wish this kid would come play guitar in my garage while i drink around 8 to 36 beers

[shudip1]

I've been playing for 3 years, twice as long as him, and I cant do anything close to that..........

[ohaidere12]

I don't care what the hell anyone says, this sounds fucking nice. I really dont care if all it is is tapping it sounds like the gods of rock threw pixie dust on him when he was 2. Rock on

[sonner117]

the metal gods have blessed this child of hades

[Entomophagy]

reminds me of Ewan Dobson - Time 2



[WolfGirl8561]

you sir have my support at all times, just don't catch me on a full moon

[TheDirtyBum900]

My dick is hard right now u sir are amazing

[BlueRise85]

too bad they is no soul, its like hes playing just for people to thinks hes cool, which is wrong, at least in my opinion.

[MostBever]

@BlueRise85

And your opinion is right. When people hear this and say: "This is the best ever", it is because they just hear a bunch of weird shit they don't understand.

I totally agree with you on that he just plays so people think he's cool. It's like: "now I've done that, what more can I show them what I can". = Pure Shit.

[Lane2268]

@MostBever Actually most of its scales and most guitarists dont stick to fundamentals, he did very good especially only after 1.5 years, I would like to hear his mechanics though drop the distortion and play a full song through so I can hear how cleanly you play it. a Great guitarist is one that can improvise on the spot its not something taught or learned you either are or are not a Lead guitarist. I think he is talented, he definitely has the timing needed, Good Job Kid.

[AnimeUnite122]

HOW ON EARTH COULD WE SAY U SUCK!! damn ur good! HOLY FUCK!!!!!

[jroyals26]

The 1,082 hater can kiss this kids asssssss!!!!!!

[420xx247xx365]

@jroyals26 the reason people disliked this is because there was no soul.... it was an emotionless guitar solo and he just stood there and barely moved.

[SuperToother]

Also you better have gotten laid, or I will kill every woman in that room.

[SuperToother]

The only problem is too much gain. But that's just a sound problem, you're pretty fucking fantastic. You better have won that talent show.

[TheBubbas06]

This is real talent, not like those American Idol losers. REAL TALENT RIGHT HERE!!!!!!!!

[MusicwithSteveG]

I've been playing for 35 years and I can't play as well as you. AWESOME!

[cyn1cal23]

1080 people could never do this.

[danmancino22]

how can so many dislike what has been done here? i thought i was good, but this just made me take a couple steps back.

[DjTsakalos]

from what song is that riff hes playing at 1.08? Anybody know?

[zippy0099]

Shes pretty good.

[420xx247xx365]

no soul =/

[igormalusevic]

@420xx247xx365 You are right, he do this mechanically, no soul at all.

[sunlightdawns]

your missing the rock out and guitasm faces and power stances, playings good but not putting on much of a show otherwise, seriously though, you are a good guitarist ^^

[krazzymaster420]

dude you are fuckin insane at guitar you and buckethead should have a guitar battle lmao

[BelloBudo007]

1.5 years? That's it! Life's not fair.

[damonfrancisco15]

If i was in the crowd i would be masturbating to this

[Valentin102308]

[MrJoeclarence]

[mrmagic1234567full]

don't say that u suck, dude u ROCK!

[DaManTommy]

everyone down here talkin shit about the cost of the guitar and the kids hair... im sure hes better than you pussy asses!

[jesseby123]

were you using any pedals?

[Sepero1]

You flipped your hair over 9000 times. You're so obviously uncomfortable with long hair, it's like a wig on you. It's no use trying to be cool with a hair style that doesn't work with you.

[highwind1973]

Dude you have a lot of raw talent there. By now you must be awesome.

[TheCreedOfBassists]

i wont saw you suck...

but i wont say ur good ether..

ah

[biggpapi420]

[elgio1077]

Justin Bieber's long lost and beyond cooler brother or ya, the 1 1/2 year old Jesus Fkn Christ!

[BlaziNomad]

You've been only playing for 1,5 years sure.

[Iggythrashmetal]

1.5 years,yeah right

[keglimp]

people like this that make people like me commit suicide.

and in 1965 at when Lennon and M
