Mac DeMarco lets fan Thijs play guitar on 'Freaking Out The Neighbourhood' at Lowlands 2017 

What happened to hem

@@kg-default2.04 he's death

@@alanacosta6141 naw he didn’t die did he?

@@alanacosta6141 naw he not dead

Beautiful!!

And he did it very well

the last thing you want in a performance is to be anxious or stressed and this kid was neither

Nah he’s in his pocket, he’s very loose too

He was trying to steal his show imo

Psisis hater lmao.

matisse songco mine wouldn’t either

What is it ?

Dude's kids will give zero shits.

what happend?

Bitcoin he shoved 🥁 up his...

very lucky

closest i got was holding macs Van shoe as he crowd surfed over me lol, the vans are pretty special though

@@sas-gk3co and here I am not even able to go to a concert

He got called handsome by Mac 😭😭 So jealous man

deserved

Wow! Of all comments this might be the sharpest one.

he’s gonna start a band and get just as big as mac

Hes doing coke now forsure

Absolutely!!!!

Waited his whole life for that moment

He Made a mistake at 2:53

@@berendputten4535 🤓

@@berendputten4535 im pretty sure that was the lead guitar, not the Rythm

Haha I’m not sure if you realised but at the time stamp marc is actually counting out the bar so the kid knows when to end, but I agree the whole stage was smiling.

@@Brandon79797 true.

He didn't play the riff haha

Yes he played the chords and did a great job.

@@aldodavidsalasv.2606 Why don't you try it yourself?

@@aldodavidsalasv.2606 ok and? he still absolutely killed the chorus, he may not know how to play the riff.

Great moment 😄

Righttt, I’d forget the chords instantly 😭

I think that made him more confident then nervous considering how he played

that would just make you be like "aw shit i forgot the chords"

Ong

I love him sm

ive seen him three times niw because i just love how he is during live shows. i remember he kept getting hats at this one show and he literally made sure to wear each one

Because we are

Because they’re all white

@@mariosaldana1053 Ok Mario, that’s like me saying only white people eat pizza but it just isn’t true.

@@isaiahwesley2602no thats not true, all kinds of people eat pizza.

@@mariosaldana1053 Do you have a valid reason as to why you think all Mac DeMarco fans are white. You can’t just say”OnLy WhItE pEoPlE LiStEn To InDiE rOcK”.

Even that requires a fair bit of precision, even if it doesn't seem like it would

Shakers are harder to play than one might think.

They already have a guy

Beans? They’re ninja eggs so you have to be super careful or you can blind the whole band if dropped

Thanks for your positive message. Things will be better soon :).

You are loved

Hang in there Kelsey, we all care for you and you will get through this

i love you guys!

You should watch the show love on the spectrum nothing on tv ever made me feel better than that!

Damn it should be an honor indeed

I can die in peace

I'd have a heart attack

id cease to exist

Imagine getting called by Mac DeMarco

you are right my friend

Thats why I love Mac because he is an awesome musician but he is a great human being.

He know thats why he brougjtvhim up. Pls dont think your alone in your thinking and thoughts. We all think the sale

you can now he knows what that means to the kid when he smiles as he nails the song

I think it means a lot to mac too. Some fan knows the part to a song he wrote. Probably excited that the kid put in time to learn the song.

4:08 beer part

​@@CitizenSnips69 Yes but lighting up during the song on a stage in 2020 really betrays earnesty. Less so with inhaling.

Hes practiced for this moment his whole life

sometimes you just gotta say “fuck it” and go for it. have a good1 bro

He was holding a sign tho, so he probably prepared for this extensively

he looked like he’s played for crowds before

@@jtcoulter9571 he’s a musician as well. i’m sure he writes his own songs so he probably does play infront of crowds

Mack plays the most simplistic shit 😂. So it really isn't killing it. Kids got rhythm, I'll give him that. You need brass balls to play Polythia or Conquering Dystopia. Cheers.

@@auntie_Slayer just cause he didn't play some overly complicated riff doesn't mean he didn't kill it. You can butcher even a simple song so for this kid to be able to perform this well in front of such a large audience is really something, so yes he in fact did kill it. Cheers.

What about if hes gay??

It’s awesome! One big groovy party, everyone’s on a goofy fun vibe

Looks more like a party than a one-sided concert. Mac really vibes to the audience, can't wait until concerts fully open up (no masks)

he's not playing the riff. He's playing the chords. He even said so.

@@k.a-l2735 i love you

Man! He looked like a natural in front of a huge crowd. All that pressure on me, i would’ve been stiff as a board and probably would’ve played like shit.

It too.. do my little dancey dance

These are staged. They plan for the person to go up and make sure they can actually play beforehand. Have you ever seen one of these where they suck? No, because they are staged XD

@@SirKingHoff don’t care cool guy play guitar 8)

@@PeptoAbismol 💖yup.

Thanks for noticing that. It's really an important (and indeed underrated, hehe) part of catching concert footage, to give a glimpse of the crowd atmosphere. And very important during this moment.

@@strangedaysindeed9 the fact that when you panned your phone to the crowd and no one was holding a phone up to record is insane. Proves how much people really love Mac.

@@blimthekid B-b-but I love him as well 🥺...

@@strangedaysindeed9 yeah but you’re the goat because since no one was recording, someone needed to step up and do it. The only reason we’re able to witness this amazing moment is because of you!

i was reading this right when he did it

yea i noticed that too lmao

whats the rhythm and riff guitar??

imannn rhythm guitar is just playing chords and lead is playing stuff like solos

B F oh so he’s not the one playing the part where its like picking

me too ((;

Steven Unger one of the best and most fun shows you’ll go to!

Go to an EDEN concert then. You won't regret it.

hes so fun in concert

he plays a lot of beautiful random shit

Лоло Козлов vinyl last forever

well he did the chords, not the melody guitar with chorus on it

xander j. Ga nou niet zo misselijkmakend doen man

he messed up once 2:52

did really good otherwise tho

the chords are harder to play than the melody. the melody is easy

Oh that's so cute

This sentence gave me a stroke

i think he was just kinda high

what

It's not a hard song to play to be fair

*It even says on the fucking title.*

@@Usrthsbcufeh in front of thousands? In one go? In front of your idol? Yeah playing a song in those circumstances would be pretty hard

@@david-hj5jw I probably could. I'd be shy at first. But I'd probably still do it alright. I just wouldn't be as expressive of my groove as he was. Strumming chords ain't that hard. Just sayin'.

@@david-hj5jw someone up there mentioned that you don't really think when you're doing it, if you practiced the song it would be just muscle memory

HAHSHAH RIGHT

oh true oop

He is from my country :)

Playing an instrument gives people extra points towards being hot. Unless the instrument sucks

Keegan Fox what instruments do you deem suck??

i think he might've flipped it by accident bc if u listen to 1:49, the tone sounds like it's from the neck pickup oh and yk how strats have these awkwardly placed pickup switches that could easily be switched by accident when strumming

the switch might've happened at 2:09. notice how his tone changed by then.

@@diegoquinto7057 Seems like you’re right and he flipped to one of the in-between positions right around 2:09

Benjamin Alicea damn straight

Arrogance is a huge turn off for many people. Being humble makes you and people around you feel better, not arrogance.

I find it pretty arrogant to judge somebody based off of a few minutes of unexpected on stage playing, with potentially their favorite band. The range of emotions going through someone in this moment (while they are probably a bit intoxicated) is too much for any of us to judge. I find it's best to give benefit of the doubt when you know zero about a person, but others find it's best to let their insecurities show. It's up to you, in the end, it doesn't affect me any.

You're right. But this is the internet. The little stroll he does onto the stage, who does that.

Alex Lewis what's your method for walking onto stages?

First reply? Kinda ruined the perfect comment 😁😁

I miss it too! Gonna start a band this summer to bring that spark back into the Bay Area :)
