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!!

The future of The Music gets saved and now it looks better in the good hands of the enthusiastic young one fella ❤🧲🔴👊☠️💥

[@DocAnaStasia]

The smiles during the “fiddly bit” made me so happy. Thank you for letting him have this moment. ❤

[@francesmcgovern5049]

Wow!!!! What a terrific performance! Not only can this kid play, but his stage presence is amazing...totally awesome ❤❤❤

[@glenniekiwi]

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.

[@Zenocarmon]

May God continue to bless and keep this young man..., bless the band for letting him shine. Amen 🙏 Peace be unto you all.

What a class act this lead singer is!!!! I cried watching this whole performance! <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="353">5:53</a>

[@wehocommunitywatch]

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

[@CALAMITY0FHYRULE]

Decent. I'd guess that the speed was due to him being nervous

[@juliandaniels9659]

Credit to the band for taking a risk, showing humility and boosting this young man’s confidence. They deserve massive respect…

[@user-wg6fh1ij3b]

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!!!

[@user-zh9zb9si8n]

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!!

[@theodore89]

A place in time, everything in the universe was just fine... cheers to Jake and the band. That is as real as it gets.

[@amarc4054]

Are you kidding me? I watched on repeat for almost an hour. Truly inspiring, Jake.

[@loriv.8986]
