My best friend in grade 5 had a “unusually strange” interest in playing the drums…fast forward 35 years, that same guy has been nominated 3 or 4 times for Canada’s drummer of the year, unfortunately he hasn’t won it yet.
My first day of high school in 94 was a trip. A kid across the road at a house came outside with his guitar and amp and proceeded to jam just like this. I thought it was something out of a movie.
@mjtch Woww, great to hear you say that. It's not just how great of an instrument player you are, it's the total band sound, including the lyrics. For me the greatest rock band created is, was and always will be Led Zeppelin. 💪🌙🌑⚡️
I’ve been playing 3-4 years and my first song I ever learned was seek n destroy. It would take me a week or two of 1-2 hours a day to learn this, but when it comes to making my on solo I look like a deer in headlights. Im mostly into punk anyways
These kids don’t even realize how good he is. The whole first part where he was just using the volume knob while fingering the frets with his left hand was incredible. Kids goin far.
Most people who have been playing for 6+ months could do this if they've been practicing and putting their focus into it. Twiddling a kill switch isn't difficult.
@@zechariahstein624 most people can’t play guitar like that in 6 months, dude… Most ppl with innate musical talent could maybe, but 95% of high school boys are busy trying to learn how to twiddle a ‘giner. This kid isn’t average.
@@sergiosolomon2250bro it’s a solo that’s how it goes, I play guitar too and play a few of the ones bro included here and I can gaurentee you he knows the full songs not just bits and pieces wat you think we just learn intros and shit and play like this ? You’re trippin lol
This kid is ridiculously good. It's like he was born to play. He makes it look effortless. I mean, the way he's able to transition from song to song. It's amazing.
This generation getting BACK into playing?? Lol where tf have you been…. There has ALWAYS been kids playing… no one is “getting back” into playing.. it never went away. This has always been a thing. There’s countless videos of kids playing guitar in talent shows from every year you can think of.
It's good to see young people still interested in rock music, may the roar of their guitars and the rumble of their drums never die, accompanied by those powerful lyrics expressing an idea, a reality or a feeling... forever rock and roll roll.
All of the kids in the audience are speechless as they witness true talent. This kid has spent 1000s of hours practicing his craft. This requires great discipline especially at such a young age.
Yes he spent probably a couple thousand hours practicing and achieving something while his friends probably spent that time watching dumb videos on TikTok.
@@MaXaNoMaLoUsI’m in high school, I played guitar with some of the school choir for a Christmas dance a couple of weeks ago…you’d be surprised at how many people asked for heavier songs, I personally don’t like Metallica but they asked for Master of Puppets and I even slid in some Megadeth and Bring me the horizon in between songs to break silence. The choir peeps started requesting songs and even the teacher chaperones gave me the greenlight and started requesting songs. I was afraid I was going to start a mosh!

Lol as a 55 year old school metal head this does my heart good! I had the same outfit and hair he’s wearing when I was in 10th grade.., kept it alive dude 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Makes me happy to see younger people embracing some of the best music ever. Buckethead is one of the greatest guitar masterminds to ever live and this kid just rocked the very first song that got me hooked on him. Please keep playing and chase your dreams!
Kids these days will never know what it was like the day the Master of puppets riff came into existence..it blew all our minds the first time we heard it
@Bubbles Maybe, but I think he meant that at the time it was unlike anything we had heard. Master of Puppets, Reign In Blood, and Among the Living were game changers at the time.
@@tonybroken6353 Yes, it fucking does. There's been over 35 years of extreme metal since then. At the time, most people had never heard anything like this. And even for metalheads, it was almost shocking because it was so different, so hard. People today who grow up with a knowledge of Slayer and Pantera and GWAR and whatever else are not living in the world of 1986, so their experience is different. It's not their fault. It's just true.
Back in the 80s you'd have to whip out some Yngwie Malmsteen or tough EVH solo just to keep up with the next ten guys and make sure you don't get upstaged. Now you can play smells like teen Spirit and master of puppets and you're like a rock star! 😂
Funny how a lot of the young generation think master of puppets is from the stranger things whereas it’s from 1986. Same goes with other songs “oooo it’s from that” as if it was made for that movie. Same with thinking only new music is better. Some of the best music ever is old. And of which I’m young and think this. Don’t be sheep.
This dude's ability to transition from Buckethead to Nirvana to Sabbath to Metallica is INSANE Edit: For the people who pointed out Crazy Train is Ozzy and not Sabbath, my apologies, simple mistake
The look of pure bliss on his face !! Keep going kid !! You’ve got the chops don’t let anything get in your way and stay true to the music you wish to create and the world will take notice!!! And as I’m sure you’ve noticed there’s NO substitute for hard work and PRACTICE,PRACTICE & PRACTICE some more!!
Indeed! My father played it so much when my boys were little that the first time they heard it on the radio, they thought it was my father! 🤣 It always drove him nuts that I picked up acoustic instead, despite loving metal. Lol
This kid kills it! I've been playing over 35 years and I'm an old school metal head, so I really enjoyed seeing this. The world needs to watch out for him, because this is how Dime got started. Great work young man!!
It’s surreal how the same music that was popular when I was younger still resonates so much with young people now. Back when Master of Puppets and Nirvana and Buckethead were popular, the idea of 30-40 year old music being cool was completely ridiculous. Fantastic playing in this video!
But rocks just rock, in the 90s we were jamming out to Pink Floyd and Black Sabbath and other stuff from the 70s or 60s stuff, hell, even alot of 50s stuff don't get old.
I WAS HERE! Hey man, you probably don't know this but I go to school with you (one grade below you). Ever since you showed off these skills at the talent show, I'll admit, I've been a fan. I don't play guitar myself, so obviously I can't judge that much, but I think you have some serious talent my guy. Really cool to see this video popping off so much and that so many people are enjoying it as much as I did. Keep up the great work man, I think there's a great future ahead of you.
The kid has awesome guitar truly important to understand how what music is if you have a passion for music believe in it and do it if you don't just listen to it like I do I have a passion and supporting music and loving music you know much bands and support it's unbelievable
Wow. This guy is insane. The Buckethead cover was the best part for me. He played "Jordan" so good, i never seen anyone play this song like this guy. You are the best, bro... you are the best
I swear,, I was born in 1976 and it doesn't matter what decade or generation it is. Metal kids and hard rock kids still look the same as they did in the 80s when I was growing up lmao!!! This guy is VERY good.
This kid took me alllllll the way back to MY high-school days and I'm a fifty year old woman! He's an official badass in my book! 😊 Never stop jammin dude!! 💜💜💜
It takes balls to stand up in front of high schoolers of his generation and use an instrument to play actual music! More power to the free thinking young metal head
I mean, Wednesday Addams just kinda took the world by storm for playing the cello, gen Z seems to embrace peer performers pretty well. Still props to young duder shredding nonetheless
He’s already popular by the sound of it. There aren’t “metal heads” and “motorheads” and nerds and goths and all that anymore because all of those things have been played out in so many movies that it’s perfectly conformist to be any of those things and still be friends with whomever.
I love how supportive the crowd is 🙏 not all appreciate & uplift others for their talents. And this is pretty mind blowing just HOW much talent this dude has! This is professional level guitar playing 🙏
Professional level guitar playing lmaooooo. Kids good, but let's be realistic. This is "im the best player at my small high-school" level playing. Like... give the kid his well deserved props, but stop meat riding.
This kid is not only so very talented musically but he is a born performer. His engaging the students in the stand definitely speaks to him being born to do this. Keep it alive brother!!!
Everyone tries to say rock and roll is dead, but there are still great bands out there. And high school kids like this inspire me that there is still a future. And that the backstory of Rush's 2112 album might not be fictional, after all!
This is great! I know Master, never watched Stranger I’m a musician of 30+ years watching this young musician just rock and he’s loving it. Black guitar, huge amps a Ramon’s look alike with Chuck Taylors on, old school look and feel finally, instead of bro country, rap crap…love it keep rocking kid.. not enough of you out there.
Probably won't get much further than playing in a local cover band, to be honest. But that's fulfilling enough for most musicians. You'd be surprised how many thousands of kids can play guitar like this. Emulation is one thing. Can he write a song?
this guitar playing kid also makes music! check out BR4DLEY on all streaming services.

The kid even dresses like he's from the 80's. Epic.
A lot of people still dress like this. I do
He's dressed normal lol
The only thing that resembles the 80s here is his hairstyle
@@stargazer6931 not really long hair on men is doing another turn around. You can’t leave the house without seeing a man with long hair

anyone who can play any buckethead song perfectly immediately gets my respect
that's Bucketheads' kid? It did cross my mind ....my brain is spinning
Also to shred on a Tele. Don't see metalheads melting faces on Telecasters too often. Prince had his Hohner Madcat Tele style guitar but not many metal guys make the same choice.
no such thing as a buckethead song. its computer generated mathematically perfect sounds at light speed without emotion. this kids not bad though
@@joshualongbottom2252 Soothsayer…
Hes doing a john 5 style medley while rocking buckethead. I love it
The fact this kid used the volume switch for his note changes for the first 40 seconds. Incredible. Eddie...would love this.
I thought of Eddie too as watched this young man play! He is a wonderful player! Eighties Brat can say that! Keep goin Bradley!
He's playing buckethead for that first part so makes sense for the killswitch
what the fuck are you talking about? Casual
It’s “jordan” by Buckethead
@@grn68rt yep that's the one couldn't think of it somehow yet it's one of my favourites of his, shame it isn't on spotify
The fact he can switch between songs seamlessly is talent
Just start playing a different song, bro

Thank you young man. Your audience went wild but us old time metal heads watching this loved it even more. Kick ass performance

Your not old. Just full of knowledge 😎

That is what kids in the 70s were saying about you kids in the 80s 🤓.
@@rhysioeren3203 huh? Total toolbar statement
Its because there is no good rock music, theyre all listening to rap and shitty raegeton, and all that sort of crap
As 19 yo who listen to 70s, 80s music religiously, its because the music nowadays sucks. Alot more talent back then.
@mjtch Woww, great to hear you say that. It's not just how great of an instrument player you are, it's the total band sound, including the lyrics. For me the greatest rock band created is, was and always will be Led Zeppelin. 💪🌙🌑⚡️
As a guitar player i could never imagine the grind this kid had to put into this, my fingers would be quite literally shredded 😂
Same, I been playing for 4 years and my fingers would get shredded
It was ok. It wasn't anything spectacular, but I give him credit for having the balls to get out there and play, though!

I’ve been playing for a year and I use 13s on a acoustic, after you get used to the pain it doesn’t hurt that badly anymore man.
All I can say is, "WOW". He's so gifted and talented.
This is a special time in the world folks, may be the first time ever when kids finally admit their parents had better music than they do!
These kids don’t even realize how good he is. The whole first part where he was just using the volume knob while fingering the frets with his left hand was incredible. Kids goin far.
I’m pretty sure he has a kill switch to cut the signal
Yeah that’s a John 5 tele im pretty sure. They come with kill switches

Looks like it might be a John 5 Telecaster.
@@jeffgarland6962 Chrome pickguard, humbuckers and a killswitch. Definitely a John 5 Telecaster.
This young man is going places!! Stay clean brother and live your passion!!!
This kid took me alllllll the way back to MY high-school days and I'm a fifty year old woman! He's an official badass in my book! 😊 Never stop jammin dude!! 💜💜💜
Me too! Class of '91 when he hit master of puppets like that! Oh my word
It takes balls to stand up in front of high schoolers of his generation and use an instrument to play actual music! More power to the free thinking young metal head
I mean, Wednesday Addams just kinda took the world by storm for playing the cello, gen Z seems to embrace peer performers pretty well. Still props to young duder shredding nonetheless
He’s already popular by the sound of it. There aren’t “metal heads” and “motorheads” and nerds and goths and all that anymore because all of those things have been played out in so many movies that it’s perfectly conformist to be any of those things and still be friends with whomever.

He even has a badass 80’s metal haircut.
God bless you and Jesus loves you, RED WELDER
He's amazing!
I love how supportive the crowd is 🙏 not all appreciate & uplift others for their talents. And this is pretty mind blowing just HOW much talent this dude has! This is professional level guitar playing 🙏
Cc Deville fans apparently
Professional level guitar playing lmaooooo. Kids good, but let's be realistic. This is "im the best player at my small high-school" level playing. Like... give the kid his well deserved props, but stop meat riding.
Dang. Those transitions between some of the songs work really well. And so many classics piled into one medley. Great work.
Yes, young man. Amazing. Run with that talent honey. You have a very bright future ahead of you.❤
This kid is not only so very talented musically but he is a born performer. His engaging the students in the stand definitely speaks to him being born to do this. Keep it alive brother!!!
Everyone tries to say rock and roll is dead, but there are still great bands out there. And high school kids like this inspire me that there is still a future. And that the backstory of Rush's 2112 album might not be fictional, after all!
ROCK N ROLL will never die. Long live ROCK!
🤘🏻 not a talent show without this guy.
He WAS the show
Outstanding!!
That was so good
He’s gonna be a legend
If this kid didn't win!!...Sheesh! Beautiful playing and loved his subtle showmanship also. Great job man! !🤘🤙
This is great! I know Master, never watched Stranger I’m a musician of 30+ years watching this young musician just rock and he’s loving it. Black guitar, huge amps a Ramon’s look alike with Chuck Taylors on, old school look and feel finally, instead of bro country, rap crap…love it keep rocking kid.. not enough of you out there.
I thought he had a little Page thing going on.
Wow! This kid is AMAZING!!
Awesome guys!!
everything from how he just has that confidence and the way he knows how to deliver a good performance is honestly inspiring
❤ seeing young musicians use the old school ways. He’s incredible ! You gotta know he’s going to be in the mainstream soon 🤘🏼🤘🏼
Probably won't get much further than playing in a local cover band, to be honest. But that's fulfilling enough for most musicians. You'd be surprised how many thousands of kids can play guitar like this. Emulation is one thing. Can he write a song?
Outstanding!
