@Its Elit3Gunner well with all my respect to this young guy , he messed up the fast part of the solo , im a musician and it takes alot of practise and you need to perfecly "nail" every note when you are playing live
I was going to say something glad you did Jesus can’t hold a note. Just listing to the lead where is the sound guy couldn’t possibly be asleep with those howling cats
The lead guitarist really nailed that solo. Slash would be proud. 🤘 The world needs less Tik Tok wannabees and influencers and more talented kids like these. Keep up the good work boys 👊
I think your assessment of these kids was a little harsh. After all they were very good with their instruments. And considering their ages, they did an excellent job. Just imagine, if they stay together what they can do.
someone at my school today played a bunch of rock/metal songs on a guitar during lunch it made me so happy seeing people my age appreciate this music 😭
Ok but can we just take a second to appreciate the vocalist!? Not many 12 year olds at all can sing that amazing especially in front of that many people.
@@johnmartinez7440 How much of a sad life must you have if you really want to reply something like to a comment complimenting a child for having talent. I may be wrong but I’m pretty sure it’s because you’re upset since you didn’t have any talent at that age and likely still don’t now.
Let me put a comment, so that I can remember this masterpiece and visit here multiple times !!! AWESOME performance!!! I was just 11 years old that time !!!
Supportive parents is right....marshal stacks and Gibson guitars....when I was twelve I practically had to beg for a cheap bike to ride let alone the opportunity to have 10k in equipment to play music with my friends.
These kids were phenomenal!! And Especially for their age!! 12 years old. UNBELIEVABLE TALENT !! Their Parents must be So Proud of them. The one boy that was playing the main guitar piece (I'm older and don't know the correct wording) He was Phenomenal!!!
The beauty of Small Town America... where you can do something like this and the whole community joins in without the cops showing up. We must preserve this!
If this was 8 years ago, I bet these cats are Killin it now!!! It's great seeing young dudes putting hands to strings and sticks to skins!! Great job guys!!! Hope y'all are still RAWKIN ✌🏻
This Is Where It's At!!! Genuine Rock and Roll!!! No artificial BS !!! I'm 60 years old and it's so good to see kids doing this, or did this, since I'm 7 years later seeing it, lol!!
a kid today at my school played electric guitar to like a bunch of rock songs and at our talent show they played master of puppets and won first place it was probably one of the best days I’ve had at school lol

Good God that close up on the solo ..... And I love love love the singers voice ... He didn't try to sound like axel he put his own twist and just that little bit of finesse makes all the difference and don't even get me started on that ending omg
He is right in the middle of a voice change at his age, But he had a fabulous sounding voice broken only by that change. I could tell he also knows where the notes are and hears himself correctly but, by far his best attribute is that he is fearless and full of energy. this video is old. I guarantee you he sings like rock and roll clown today. The whole band was killer.
@@eileenboller5726 It's amazing to see young kids like you playing the guitar or enjoying what good music was back in the day. I was his age when GNR came out.
@@eileenboller5726 I wanna see Motley Crue with Poison and Def Leppard but they're prices are steep and they expensive at almost $1,000 per ticket. If you do go to any concerts I would suggest Alice Cooper or Motley Crue or poison and I must tell you Brett Micheal from Poison is from my hometown of Butler pa. He does free concerts at our town fair every time he is in town.
Just like most ppl, they can’t tell the difference between good or bad vocals and good or bad sound system. Vocals coming out of a PA are very hard to get to sound good or clear. It’s so much harder than any instrument. That’s why even some pros with much better sound systems than this sound shitty live. If this kid sang this in a studio with a studio mic and equalizers everyone would be talking about how great he sounds. And on the flip side these ppl think garbage singers with nothing but auto tune and compressors sound great when they actually blow. Kid did a great job.
Stratton you nailed this song along with the rest of your band. By the looks of the large crowd they enjoyed it too. I love seeing younger generation pick up where we left off. Long Live Rock!
A common scene in every neighborhood when I grew up, miss all those days that people feel real in the 70's, we need more of these kids everywhere. Very talented! Totally awesome!
There were no free garage band shows when I was there but definitely the kids practicing in the garage with the door closed and you could hear them down the block and no one said a word because they know it was keeping the kids occupied!
@@sergeant_saltyYou don't say! The now a day species I see can't think on their toes, quickly add or subtract numbers, I couldn't imagine what they would do if the major power grids went down and people couldnt use cell phones...oh no..what would they do? I am so grateful I grew up in a timeframe when life was simple, not yet complicated by gadgets galore and common sense was a desirable trait . These kids certainly take someone of us back to a different day, considering our age, and I applaud them.
But you see, slash originally used a copy of the Gibson Les Paul, bc he couldn't afford the real one when he first started, hence the copy of a copy joke when they copy his guitar
: He left before this gig was over saying he could not stand the vocalist anymore. The vocalist did the same about the lead guitarist. Next weekend they were together in this same garage for a bigger band reunion event where they made much more money, what proofs they are really ready to Rock’n Roll. :-)
You young guys are great ! Hearing my old music from this generation sounds so good, keep up the good work, you'll probably hear more kids now doing the same, kudo's for you ! ♥️
What an awesome, talented group of guys we have here! I played guitar for 30 years exactly this year, these fellas sound just as good as any adult band ive sen
My gosh I don’t know if the 12 years old is accurate, but anyone that has an ear for music at all knows full well that the guitarist has a real future as a musician.
Whoever these kids are. Who ever the crowd of people are. Whatever this whole F'n thing is and for whatever F'n reason it's happening... it put a smile on my face. This video is awesome.

Let me just say, as a chick who drums: WHOEVER you are, kid in the back, damn good job on keeping that count TIGHT AF and letting the boys shine up front. Drummers. The heartbeat of every band and thumbs up to the unsung heroes who do it well.
@@calvinbeck797 We all have our favorite, lol! We tend to gravitate towards what's familiar...so, I'm guessing you're hiding your axe from us, am I right?
Let’s give the drummer some attention. My man, keeping it clean, smooth and keeping the tempo steady. Props to them all! That was awesome. Keeping rock alive! 🤘🏼
This is one of my Favorite songs of when I was these kids age! So cool to see kids putting respect on this!! These kids will be playing at your local Arena in 10-15 yrs!!!
Man!!! Wow!! Hardly ever does anyone singing a song from my generation give me chills, but theys kids made the hair on my arms stand up!!.....Excellent performance, talent, skill, etc!!
WOW! For a bunch of "only 12 year old kids", you guys totally smashed that. Massive respect to you. I really hope all you guys are on the stage a lot more now. 🤟🏼
Lol, totally what I was thinking. Hes all chill then steps out all calm like with the Paul slung low, rips a solo then back into the shadows. Hes got no idea how awesome High School is gonna be with swag that early. He must have cool parents.
NAILED the solo. And the sunburst Les Paul was the cherry on top. Singer's got a rockstar voice. The boys are going somewhere! I'll pray they find success (if they haven't already found it). Props to ALL the band members. You're all extremely talented.
*back in 1970 12 year old girl:"bet you cant play gnr" 12 year old boy:hold my alcohol and drugs *today 12 year old girl:"bEt YoU CaNt PlAy(any shitty song with fake guitarists) 12 year old who thinks he can play:strum my G chord

Man I am envious. Even 20 years ago in So Cal we had the cops called when the first song was playing when I went and jammed with my drummer. I used to fight my parents about reporting local bands. I figured as long as it was reasonable hours, let it be. I still do even though I am one of those parents now LOL. Hell, I wish my daughter would get out there she has a great voice. Also, the rhythm guitarist is pretty kick ass too.
Tony Wilcox just wanted to give the 12 year old GarageBand an uplifting message they really are good. I'm 72 years old I really like them last comment!
