(This kid is only 15, btw)
i dont get it
Ok well you obviously don't know anything about guitar playing and the amount of skill it takes to do what that kid is doing.
And at his age, that's like unheard of.
Ugh gtfo, its not fake.
Go watch all of his other videos. This kid knows what he's doing.

Yeah, if anyone doesn't get that, then they most certainly don't understand anything about music. What he's doing isn't exactly easy.
Also, it isn't unheard of. At one of my more recent recitals I saw a 10 and 16 year old both play Leyenda. Which is quite a bit more difficult than your average metal piece.
In fact, child prodigies aren't uncommon in this day and age. People keep getting better and better at their instruments, and the talent keeps coming at younger ages.

It's harder to fake playing guitar good, than actually playing it good. Keep that in mind.
It might seem that way because he's playing the song in the background, but still.
There's always doubt about videos like these on youtube.
Anyone heard of funtwo? Insane.
I wish I could play guitar like that... Or at least play blues better.
I wish I could play guitar period.
Which I guess is why I'm so impressed by this. Plus I'm an aspiring musician and I have a background IN playing music... So yeah.
lol

maybe he's playing the song in the background (maybe just the vocalist version)
eitherway, it's amazing dude lol

He's playing the song in the background for reference, and then playing his guitar over it.
This is a pretty basic way of covering songs. The reason people play the actual song in the bg is so that they can keep in time with the music.
Why do talented musicians carp up any credibility they'd ever have by not hiring someone to make a good looking myspace

If I had been linked to his Myspace instead of that YT vid I would have closed the tab before he played a chord, ugh
What's wrong with that picture?
Other than the font and the choice of colors, I think its pretty cool looking.
And for carp's sake dude, he's 15. That's not even old enough to be able to get a job in most places in the US. How do you expect him to pay an artist to make him a myspace?
Gtfo.
This kid could play this piece at 9, albiet, not perfectly, but a lot better than most people could.
Kid playing guitar.
Up until a couple years ago, I wouldn't even have messed with that piece. Playing it perfectly would be a carp.
Why am I not surprised that these kids are all asians?
Just about everything that could feasibly be wrong with a drawing of a bird except that it captures a general likeliness is wrong with that picture. Its not just bad, its an eyesore: from a design standpoint it would look better without it, and I'd be willing to bet it deters people from their page.
I'm 15. You can get a job at the age of 15. You can raise the miserly hundred-fifty dollars it costs for a header from a peer if you're 15. Hell, my point is that you can have the sense to not put that thing at the top of your myspace.
I'm being critical because I'm sympathetic. Its a shame I think that he (and his band) could be taken more seriously and possibly do much better for themselves if they knew these things.

You shouldn't be. Asian children seem to have a natural talent when it comes to instruments.

La Catedral is really a carp up piece. Been working on the 3rd movement all year.
i dont think its a big deal, tbh
they'll (maybe) get found because of their talent...not a god damn bird
