[@thealmightytigor5308]

Learn to play the steel pan, didgeridoo, and perhaps learn the theremin

[@Brickruns]

Still waiting for the hockey vid ;)

[@andrewshingleton4062]

Loved this idea!

[@sanyo_neezy]

Yes, please! This video was a really creative idea and I really liked to watch you learn, practice, fail and succeed! This whole process to me is what KZbin is all about! Or simply commit the trumpet thing and bring us along to your very first lesson with an actual teacher :D

[@stanphillips7277]

I love how you committed to teaching yourself 8 in 8 and once you talked yourself into the attitude of "I'll learn or at least I can say I tried" so yes. Also, I saw MJ describing and demonstrating "How" to Moonwalk and the trick is that while you're sliding one foot back, just as you're about to slide the other foot back you slide forward with the one you just slid back. It worked for me and I don't dance at all.,.but I don't stand still either 🤣 Yes, 8 more after you recover from tired cheeks, hurting legs, and the abrasions on your neck.✌️♥️🎸🎶🙏

[@warlordbison]

As a lifelong guitarist.... I kindly thank you for attempting that guitar throwing around the body thing so we don't have to 😂

[@FrankCosbyNo-Relation]

I own a guitar I tried it I owned a guitar

[@dmplacencia]

May we have a moment of silence for everyone who has poked an eye out or lost a guitar to a flip

[@FrankCosbyNo-Relation]

@@dmplacencia 😔 🙏

[@alecrisser12]

I'm impressed by the progress you made with the trumpet in 1 hour. I've played the flute for a while and it has a similar thing going on with the embouchure. I've heard that the trumpet is one of the harder brass instruments to get the embouchure down on.

[@finnvanderbar3935]

trumpet is hard af man, i can make good sounds and pay a couple octaves, but for me the hardest part is improv and phrasing with the fingering positions

[@insederec]

Indeed. After not playing for many years now I've completely lost everything except the memories, can't make a note

[@dombowombo3076]

I've played trumpet for more than 10 years at the music school and the hard part is, that you have to make the exact pitch with your lips..the fingering part is, compared to guitar, pretty easy imo. And you have to practice constantly, otherwise you loose your muscles pretty fast. Haven't played for a few years now and can't make a single clean tone anymore. French horn is similar.

[@ToiMadness]

I play trumpet guitar and flute among many others and so far I have found that trumpet for sure has a very strange embouchure and while your problems with flute are very hard to deal with they will eventually get better just by playing at all but with trumpet you very much have to focus on that and it doesn’t only get better by playing. You have to put that as a priority

[@thebigchip1711]

Trumpet isn’t that hard tho. But take it with a grain of salt because I’ve been playing for 6 years now

[@davidnickels1265]

Brother I've been playing trumpet for 18 years now and you accomplished in like an hour what took me a month to do when I was first starting out. Hell of a job!

[@MuffinMontages]

same here, except the 18 yrs part

[@cj_music23]

trumpet progress is real dude! i’ve been playing for almost 9 years now and the best advice i’ve heard is to tighten the corners, just the corners of your lips, and make sure you are pushing air with your diaphragm. also, think of it like your blowing air through the horn, not into it. hope this helps!

[@cgw3186]

I was chuckling after "it's been submerged" and the pool jumping clip, but then the it cuts back with "several times..." delivered deadpan and I gaffawed. Yet again SG's timing proves to be golden... 😆

[@dillonadelman2094]

Great job on the trumpet! That was leaps and bounds better than my first hours attempting

[@gamebuildcolor1673]

The “hambone” thing 2:57 here was hilarious

[@tfofurn]

I don't think I had a full octave on trumpet until I'd been playing for months. Much respect!

[@Vivi_9]

Seems you've been working on your editing as well as your musical skills! It didn't go unnoticed :)

[@hattipper5985]

The last one with the spoon is actually really cool! You can play the rhythm and melody on the same guitar! That is definitely something I want to learn myself. Always love your videos, keep up the amazing work!

[@rottingemptiness]

Indeed , sounds really interesting 🙂

[@coryman125]

I love that the hand whistling thing was the hardest of these. Honestly it's the most tempting one to learn myself too, might have to look into this

[@tfofurn]

Speaking of guitar/brass crossovers, there's a cool Trent Hamilton video where he shows the relative pitch distance each of the valves gives you and shows how combinations of valves don't line up with guitar frets, which is why valved brass need tunable valves.

[@nvteriffs]

This is my favorite video you’ve done. I’ve been scared of sweep picking for so long. You’re inspiring.

[@joecinder]

Approach sweeping slow and methodical. If you try to sweep at 200 bpm starting out, you will not improve the techniques of muting and the flow of your picking hand. Be sure to use a metronome when practicing this, or the notes will feel sloppy.

[@nvteriffs]

@@joecinder will do! Thanks a million!

[@ShreddedShredder0]

Flipping the guitar is like working a hula-hoop. You have to add centrifugal force by swinging your body a bit.

[@kghjhcnvfjkhehngh3809]

Centrifugal force is an apparent force, therefore you cannot add it. You can only sense it's apparent effects.

[@ghr8184]

I LOVE the "you can do it" message at the end of this. It was fun watching you try all these skills, but that little hook at the end zipped the video into inspirational territory. I feel like I can use this as inspiration to pump up my own guitar skills. Thanks, Sammy G!

[@sanyo_neezy]

0:42 I totally felt that reaction 💔

[@aegistechreviews7410]

This was awesome! I love the branching out along with the cinematography!

[@pileofstuff]

Some cool Mike Boyd vibes here. It's amazing what a person can learn when they go "all in" on learning.

[@KebapRocker]

this video was SO much fun to watch

[@prisonmike4971]

I hear you on the trumpet. One of my favorite songs of all times is Hands by Moving Mountains- the way the trumpet (and some other brass) comes in on the crescendo absolutely makes the song soar.

[@mdiddy22]

Love the energy and editing on this one. Keep it up!

[@breezecam1099]

Loved the editing and videography style in this video!!

[@zezinhocambalhota972]

The microtonal trumpet jam was badass

[@jamwayofaiken-augustarockb7643]

A really crazy dance move to learn is the GROUCHO swinging leg thing. It looks insane, he made it look easy, and brother, it will WEAR YOU OUT.

[@GamersWorld232]

Love it Sammy G! Always a pleasure to see a new video from you!

[@msmetal7694]

Hey Sammy! That video was just hilarious as always. Love your content keep it up and greetings from Germany ☺️

[@lexinwonderland5741]

SPOONMAN!! (this was a fantastic video as usual Sammy G, i can't wait to see the next incarnation of it! keep up the good work!!)

[@aristokrat91]

Awesome cinematography. Loved the transitions!

[@arnottclark6959]

This was a fun episode ! Good job on the trumpet ! That was impressive !

[@Rustyjamesman]

I once played a gig with this band where the guitarist was playing a brand new $1000 guitar, he went to do a guitar flip and it fell off the strap and the headstock broke right off. It was one of the saddest things I’ve ever seen

[@hunterscheidt5]

This was a really cool vid, keep it up

[@rottingemptiness]

Great content as always , thank you 🙂

[@stevenveine968]

Love this video! I've tried almost everything in the video but I gave up pretty quickly. This video inspired me to retry the drumstick spin trick.

[@jamie2446]

Im so happy your course is on sale SammyG, Ive started playing guitar again since before lockdown and am genuinly having so much fun on the instrument for the first time I can remember, was toying with the idea of buying your course so Im gonna treat myself to an early XMas present!!

[@ITPMMentor]

You had me at the trumpet...and then you moonwalked all the way to spoon guitar. Thanks for sharing your journey and the joy of learning.

[@oldadajbych8123]

I made the first move back in the 90s with one of my first guitars. No strap locks, though. I have had to screw my head (guitar head) back together because the guitar went straight to the floor head first.

[@jbarry471]

Very cool video...great job. Enjoy your new skills!

[@StooSegadeth]

I loved everything about this video. I am also a father who was unable to whistle with the power of banshee scream. Now there are a dozen stray dogs in my garden...what power!

[@fudgesauce]

I'm inspired. Here is my list of skills to learn today. Playing on the 1. Playing on the 1-and. Playing on the 2. Playing on the 2-and. etc

[@s550danny]

The commitment to put all this work into 1 video! I wish I could like this more than once

[@AshkonHobooti]

I wasn't expecting the uplifting message at the end. Thanks, Sammy.

[@juliussharrock8943]

Absolute fire 🔥

[@MegaEmmanuel09]

This one goes out to you, Trevor ✊️

[@gingerelvis93]

The trumpet bit was really cool for me, I have played a lot of trumpet in my past and still dable with it from time to time, and yeah it was cool that you were able to figure out how it makes sound in an hour

[@ambiention]

The results of the trumpet one are genuinely impressive. I’d love to see you continue to progress with that

[@philbert006]

I'm impressed by the improvement in an hour of trumpeting. Right on!

[@TiagoMorbusSa]

You had me cackling with your trumpet skills XD I could never!

[@yellowdogparty]

My grandfather can whistle louder than anyone I’ve ever heard. As a kid, I could hear him whistle for me from blocks away and I don’t even think he uses his hand! So as a father of two myself, I also decided to finally learn it a few months ago. I still need to work on consistency, but the one time I really did it I had no idea I did it because it was so loud I basically deafened myself temporarily and my wife, who was sitting next to me and doesn’t have great hearing, assured me that I had done it. I basically only heard the echo of it in my house but it was like I had imagined it. Thankfully my kids are sound sleepers who sleep with loud white noise since we have a small house. 😂

[@Godmil]

That super smooth transition into the drum section!

[@jamewson]

great video + great editing

[@Somuntioalt]

You blew my mind with the whistle! I had no idea of the tongue position! Thank you soooo much! I can finally start this journey! Hahahahaha 😄

[@Somuntioalt]

Also, the amount of trumpet skill you amounted with an hour only is impressive! 😊

[@trevorsanders4492]

I've been learning the drums for a couple of months now, and this feels like a bad omen

[@han36solo]

Excellent work Sami G!

[@stevieraveon]

Bravo! The donkey part and the spoon are priceless!

[@billmozart7288]

Great work Sammy G!

[@JCGronewold]

“I could probably spend an hour practicing drums… but I’m gonna practice twirling this instead” You just summed up my entire musical career in one sentence

[@BrooksMoses]

And Trevor's, it sounds like.

[@Princesskeywest]

I practiced the hamboning on both sides to the tune of We will rock you since it’s the same basic rhythm and consistent all the way through. Seems like a good skill to continue building especially for the casual musician. I can see myself sitting around a campfire or similar setting with my friends and if I’m not playing some basic guitar I could or somebody else could do this and just sing together. That’s as far as I’ve gotten so far but I’m tempted to learn the guitar swing trick too 😂 This was a really cool video concept man.

[@chrisreichart8865]

Excellent video

[@wilfbiffherb]

What kind of sick monstrous savage sweep picks on the bridge pickup?! YOU SIR ARE AN UNSPEAKABLE CAD!

[@greycastro1009]

I really like the rhythmic choices in the sweep part.

[@daniel-vr2pw]

great video! you inspired me to try and learn sweep picking too!

[@plasmaticnoises3523]

Greetings from Mexico!!! this is one of your funniest videos

[@sugarthetis]

super video samurai

[@laspen42]

Coolest drumstick trick I ever learned was to throw it on the floor so hard and on such an angle it bounced back to my hand

[@bkbinj6320]

Awesome!

[@jimmywest2267]

Quality content

[@linokelian707]

This was great

[@williamsurname4669]

I've been wondering how to do some of these tricks, so this will be very helpful. Thanks!

[@tofersiefken]

As a former trumpet player (also French horn) before moving briefly to electric bass then electric guitar, this video made my day. Watching you try and play the trumpet made me giggle! I may never play guitar at a level that even approaches your ability (or any other KZbinr's for that matter), but I'll always have the satisfaction of knowing that my rudimentary trumpet playing skills from high school marching band would win that category. BTW, every newbie trumpet player learns to play "Taps" (because it has the easiest fingering for a newbie) the same as every newbie guitarist (of my era) learned to play "Smoke on the Water".

[@dlmyrs]

Impressive on all counts. Nice edit when you dropped the stick.

[@haxortrent]

This is just incredible

[@joaopedrokurtzgritti2355]

I really enjoy your New signature closer, it's just so wholesome

[@TheShmoey]

Definitely have been to a local show and the guitarist did the flip, and definitely watched the screw dislodge, but it was the other one than you did on yours

[@karl-erlendmikalsen5159]

I have never been able to play the guitar, despite giving it a real go. I've always managed the swingy-instrument-on-a-strap thingy really well though, so I guess we're evenly matched with that instrument.

[@braxtongary6721]

enjoy your content thank you

[@howlinhobbit]

it’s amazing to me how you can rock doing a silly video like this. please to keep them coming, serious *or* silly. I need all the relief from my condition that I can get.

[@davidriley4895]

The sweep picking and the spoon were inspiring. But damn, “Trevor“ must’ve done something bad to get put on blast TWICE😂😂😂

[@dfarr6518]

Right?? I need to know more about Trevor....he's an interesting character in the Samuraiverse.

[@samuraiguitarist]

@@dfarr6518 Trevor doesn't actually exist but rather he is the imaginary musician who encompasses all the awful characteristics of musicians I have met in the past and don't want to actually name. I think his first appearance was in the "Oddly Satisfying things only musicians can appreciate" video.

[@LewisOfAranda]

I just love this guy so much

[@MreenalMams]

This is actually a great idea to commit to learning a new skill for 1 hour.. and the trumpet was actually impressive.. I'm tempted to buy one now..

[@ItsJustMe0585]

Trumpet was hella impressive! You basically did what most new players do in about a week, within an hour. XD hells ya!

[@andrewr5357]

Thanks Sammy G... now I have to figure out how to whistle like that now too. Always wanted to, but could never get it.... off down the YT rabbit hole!!!!

[@suedeface]

I did the guitar spin when I was a kid after seeing Steve Vai do it. I think he pushed it backwards though. It was pretty cool the first 5 times before it went flying.

[@Marta1Buck]

Was it a V?

[@TheVirakahScale]

> Takes all precautions - Guitar still hits ceiling, Strap comes off, Still ends up on floor. You've met with a terrible fate, haven't you?

[@unchangedimage1603]

I’ll be honest, this was incredibly inspiring. It really got me, I don’t know why…great video.

[@faethe000]

LOL as a trumpet player, I'd forgotten how hard it was to learn to get good tone

[@HofTheStage]

Love this video, perfectly crafted, edited and executed. Great job

[@cyrix01]

Good job on that trumpet! The late, great Freddie Hubbard would be proud.

[@TheBigburcie]

That sweep picking was pretty smooth. Something you actually could use in the future.

[@Metallian81]

Nobody was better at the guitar flip than Tom Keifer and the late Jeff LeBar of 80's rock band Cinderella. They're synchronization of the guitar flip took it to an all new level of badass.

[@mangoshake]

The relative background silence while you did some of the skills made the video pretty damn hilarious. Maybe it was your intended purpose and if so, congrats! It was hilarious.

[@yoshieggs-cw8um]

i loved the spoon guitar part❤️

[@MrLanceDaily]

This video inspires me

[@BritBluesMan]

Don't know how I missed this first time around, but glad I finally got to it! Gonna go get my spoon now!!

[@krystofon]

im falling in love with your dry sense of humour :)

[@floydbenson7040]

Sammy G you crack me up !

[@FlorianGuitar85]

The way you bashed the rotating drumstick out of your hand sending it flying is exactly what I experienced on accident, denting the flawless CAR-finish of my Gretsch 😅

[@CaptHiltz]

If your strap screw comes out try filling the hole first with cotton from a cotton ball and then saturate the cotton with super glue. Let it harden and then tap the drill out. I tried this reattaching the striker plate to a door frame. So far it has worked.

[@fadhilr5102]

Sooo Inspiring

[@UltimateDelivery]

That lil trumpet toot! 🤗
