The fact that the band was willing to allow that young man hop on stage and give it a go speaks to their humility and willingness to let others live their dreams
I’m grateful for parents who introduce their children to rock & metal, those genres were on the decline for years. Here’s hoping Jake creates his own metal band in a few years! I say a few years because his fellow bandmates may need time to catch up to him lol! Love your mad skills Jake!❤
Not sure who kicks more @$$, that kid for having the balls to do that and KILLING it, or the frontman for giving him the shot! You're both incredible!!!
no, they are NOT always supportive of each other. There's a full range of response from a full range of musicians. That is part of why this video is magical and wonderful. Because they DID support him so sincerely and fully. They are clearly confident in and of themselves along with being successful and are happy to share the stage. It is a great bit of video here.
Great musicians allow this to happen. It's the self indulgence of mediocre musicians that won't allow this. Believe me. I've been in this situation many times
@@susantenney8604 Interesting. My experience is limited and not a musician. My experience has been that any musician I’ve ever known has wanted everyone to come along for the ride. As in any profession, insecurity can lead to bad behavior.
@@kenknelle7194it was an even wilder coincidence that the “backup” guitar they brought out was the same one the kid plays in his videos. Same guitar strap, too, needing no adjustment to fit. Lol. But I still loved it. He’s one to watch for in a few years.
Young man. I've wasted too many hours on this platform but every now & then a nugget of gold like this pops up & I'm so happy to have seen it. Crazy, crazy talent. Well done kid. 👏👏👏
@@saxyfly when I was 10 (a while ago) I was probably running up n down stairs of tenement buildings playing chap door runaway. This kid has made much better choices.
This is the occasional "spark" that a band needs to break the monotony of being up on stage, or being on the road. A true honor to know our youth is really paying attention and ready to carry-on with Rock n' Roll.
The 10 year old Jake plays like an experienced adult. That was brilliant of you to let Jake on stage to play with you. You have a beautiful warm kind heart man, all praises of you.
Not only can this kid play. Not only does he have courage to ask. Not only does he have the bravery to stand in front of a live audience... but he can properly perform too. And boy what a performance. Total respect Jake.
From a Gen-Xer who grew up listening to Guns 'N Rose's "Sweet Child 'O Mine", Jake shredded the hell out of the guitar solos on that song! Loved it! Mad respect, young man!
I love it music speaks to every age group no matter how old the music is my 16 year old nephew listening to his generation of music. Also 90s 80s 70s however old frank Sinatra is even that pink fylod Beatles it's amazing how music does that survives generations
10 years old, started learning during lockdown and plays guitar and piano. That means he started learning when he was 6! The way he handled the solo shows talent beyond his years. I’m a 71-year-old grandmother and I was jumping. Jake, may all the Higher Powers that be guide you in the joy you bring. ❤
As a very young man many many years ago I took guitar lessons for a few years. Unfortunately I didn't inherit either the talent for music my older brother had or not even close to the dedication to practice that he had, so I gave up. I wish I had a tenth of the talent this young man has. I was in awe of watching him play, in fact I can truly say I'm jealous of his talent and I'm 76 years old, LOL. A STAR IS BORN.
The lead singer and band were so lovely to let Jake take the spotlight. Your kindness has been noticed by millions of people. Well done and I wish you every success for the rest of your lives.
A 10 year old young man who played like he has played for 30 years. What a talent. And a great thanks to the band for taking a chance on this amazing young man. Speaks volumes of the band for showing this talent. Great job! 👍
Sorry, that was a private event and someone paid big $$. That was as spontaneous as a Joe Biden press conference, the kid did great! But everyone today believes way too much.
I love how the band stepped back to give Jake his moment in the spotlight. And then joined him side by side for a great photo opportunity with all the guitarists together. A great day for all!
@@LeaBarnett-y5l Sign him? Relax. Hes a kid that knows a GNR solo. He’s not the only one and that’s not why you sign someone. I’m not taking away from his ability to play the solo, but Sign him?
And I don’t even know who this band is lol but it came up on my feed and I thought .. ok I’ll watch this and I’m so glad I did 🤗 what a nice band to let this sweet young man up to play with them! This will inspire this young man to keep on going🎸he was incredible! Ps.. I’m watching from Cali 😉
This young man is extremely talented and showed that he has the ability of someone twice his age. It took a lot of guts for the RPJ Band to let this young man show his talent to the world. Hopefully this young man's parents will keep him grounded, protected from all of the drugs, corruption, and scumbags in the music industry. God Bless!
Oh, Jake. You have this old woman in tears. My guitar-playing days are over, now that Mother Nature has twisted my fingers, but this made me not mind for the first time. Keep on rocking. You’re going to make it.
@@mshazzard2myselfnursing did the same for me but seeing this young man play one of my favorite songs to perfection made me feel young again for a few moments. Tears here too. Thank you Jake and the amazing front man for giving him the chance❤❤
I'm 66, I'm now selling my guitars and amps! Awesome, I just love seeing young kids with so much talent. It gives me hope for humanity! Well done Jake.
So much maturity at this age. Not overplaying or getting carried away. Precise in what he had to deliver. You're awesome man! Wish you a blessed career! Stay humble.
Yep. What a great kid. His folks and family must be super chuffed. He's a class act but his genuine humility is the gift here. I love how the other guitarist encourage him.
This kid is beyond amazing . He never missed a chord ! I hope to see him in his own band soon!! Kudos to the parents also who let him pursue his dream . I am speechless Jake . You rock!!❤❤
Omg!! I’m crying!! Jake ! You are amazing! Thank you to his parents for raising such an awesome kid!! Every child should learn an instrument!! You have a bright future !
I am 64 years old and have played guitar since I was 15. But I’m nowhere close to this kid’s guitar playing skills. This is golden. Thank you for blessing us! 🙏🏼
Literally brought me to tears! I'm 69 years old and I've seen a lot. I've been feeling depressed as of late. This brought me some real joy!! I haven't felt like that for awhile, thanks man! ROCK ON
Cara tenho 64 anos moro e vivo no Brasil e me sindo a pessoa mais feliz do mundo!...falam que aqui é perigoso, venha para cá, interaja com brasileiros e terás toda sua alegria e vontade de viver resgatada. Eu garanto!
WOW, what a fab memory, with actual receipt to back it up. The band have my total respect for letting this youngster play. I bet it was awesome to be there.
Seriously blown away, wow just wow, and respect to the band for giving him his moment in the sun, but don’t think we’ve seen the last of that young man 😊
Major kudos to Rick and the entire RPJ Band for backing this great young talent onstage during their gig! Way to inspire new musicians for the industry! When I need a major dose of endorphins, I will return to this great video! Thank you, too, for allowing a 10 year old to show the world that great music is ageless! Jake, a LOT of fans are now behind you and look forward to all your future work! Awesome skills!
The faith that mother has in her son to stand up there and perform with those professional musicians brought tears in my eyes as a 34 year old man. Good job, momma bear! I believe you are doing exactly what you are called to do in raising this young man!
As a 64 Yr old grandmother to young musicians I wad also very emotional watching this. My grandson did something similar when he was 9 or 10. Once he got on the stage the band had to stop him, he was in his happy place. He is now almost 20 and a full time musician, living his dream and encouraging other youngsters like he was. This boy will go far. He was so happy to be on that stage, my heart burst with joy for him and his family 🎉❤
When that boy gets used to hearing himself through the monitor mix he’s going to be an absolute beast on stage. Won’t take long either if things like this keep happening
That child will remember this for the rest of his life. He will tell this story over and over again. Thanks to this wonderful band to let him up on this huge stage and play with accomplished musicians 🫶🤘🎸
@@Papadoc1000 Muahahaha, nah. Just see things as they are. This was a ploy to get this young fella some well deserved attention, it simply wasn’t as spontaneous as portrayed.
If he spent countless hours practicing wouldn't it be considered skill, not talent? Talent indicates that he has a natural ability, while skill would indicate he's spent time developing said ability.
Absolutely brilliant 🤘😎❤️ Jake was incredible & now we can all say "we saw him when he first started". Huge kudos to the band & especially the lead singer for making a Rock Star in the making dreams come true 👏👋👍🤩
Seeing young kids learning to play 80's band's music is awesome! Thanks to the band singer for allowing this young man to show his chops! Bravo all the way around!!
I was thinking the same thing, kids a natural....walked forward to front of stage instinctively for solo and back when it was over.....naturally amazing talent.
Not only did he play well for his age, but he also has decent timing. He has definitely dedicated himself to music. Smart kid, and awesome band for giving home a chance
That shows Love in the House. Great father and mother behind this talented Boy. I got tears i wished my son😂could play like this but yeahh good for this Boy.. finally having a Stage cheering him up.🎉
The RPJ Band, Thank you for giving this young man a gift of a lifetime memory!!!8 Young man….kudos to you, great guitar with great stage presence! May you go far young man!!!
Wish to thank this Band for paying it back!! I am 71 and still playing. Never played like this talented young man!! I'll let kids come up if they ask.I owe them because, old guys gave me the same opportunity to see if I measured up.. I also was an O.K. Luthier and have given some guitars away to kids whose parents can't afford to buy. I want to help kids acquire a skill that can be satisfying on so many levels! I started on Drums, and later became a singing Drummer. Then I discovered Harley Davidsons. Broke 3 bones in my neck.. Learned a bit of guitar while I healed up. Guitar got me started writing bad songs for awhile!! I still play, sing, and write my own music.. I believe music is the best possible gift, other than our children!!
I love seeing talented young people display amazing skills like he’s doing. He’s absolutely incredible and fantastic!! “Slash” would be so proud! 👍🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Every so often a true nugget of pure gold appears on RU-vid, and this ladies and gentlemen was one. Well done to all involved who enabled him to play with the band and well done to Jake for nailing one of my favourite songs. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
