UHHH WOW

3:01 made me smile.

Also

Dang, that is impressive. That guitar is beautiful too!

he's ultra smooth \m/

I hope he's able to get the right group behind him and make some awesome records--he looks very promising.

er, I'm pretty sure that's a girl case ;)

I never thought Id say this,about anything,but she seems robotic...
these young players..*sigh* forced..

Congratulations Mrs. Smith...IT'S A BOY. I thought it was a girl too. @gshred Forced???? Care to explian???

Boy/girl W/e lmao.

WForced as in, her parents made her/him play.
I never really seen that many kids that age that serious
or good at guitar, from natural ability imo.

Im not dissing the kids ability,he/she(w/e) Is a great
player, but how that player got there is questionable.

Just sayin.

I dunno man. Maybe your right but I've seen other videos where HE seems to be enjoying himself. If a kid can be great at video games, without being forced,why not play guitar and love it just as much. Just another IMO statement though. By the way he's 9 years young in this video. I would have loved to be playing when I was 9. I loved music but not not have the means to get an instrument. My son has been playing piano since he was 3 because he enjoys it. Someone gave us a piano and he just took to it. No lessons or anything. Now at 15 he can play almost any song with just one listen.

Woaaa!

Well,true. If your kid enjoys it,cool, no harm.
But you see those beauty pagent shows where parents are
trying to live vicariously through there kids and such.

I watched the first video again,and he seemed to be feeling and enjoyin it. #2 he seemed void of emotion, maybe cause it was an exercise, but still.

And the video game thing is something the kids enjoy,because of commercials and such. I wanna a see some gibson kiddie lp commercials
that would rock. lmao

Yeah the pagent shows suck since it's obvious the kids hate it. Or just the opposite. The kid gets a big head and becomes a spoiled brat.

Precisely. Its sad, but legal i suppose,shouldnt be though.

Yeah. This kid is crazy good. No doubt.

As for youngins growin up too fast, I don't know. It's up to the individual and how they are raised in their craft. Forced is never good I suppose. But if they do it because they love it, no harm in that.

+1 @mac

This shouldn't have any bearing on his playing or abilities. I play with a stoic expression usually because it's just what I do most of the time. It doesn't mean really anything other than maybe you are ultra relaxed while playing something.

+1

I too play without visible expression. A friend told me I am boring to watch because I just sit there and play. You don't need to smile to let other people know you are enjoying things. Who gives a damn what other people think when you have an easily recognizable skill, such as the dude in those videos.


Ok, let me rephrase that hehe. Who cares what people insignificant to your success think. Just enjoy things for what they are. No sense in delving into territory that we have no right entering.


Rock on!

^^^^^^^well spoken +999999 ....i think i show a little expression in my face though lol.

makes sense. Guess im used too watchin,di meola,yngwie,vai etc
flashiness,face expressions. He is a beast though.

@Guitarslinger

Definitely man, my face doesn't really do very much when I play, but I headbang enough to make up for it ;)

\m/ Metal! haha
