Holiday Specialtacular: Rockin' Around

[@ElyskeTheDonut]

I would literally watch 3 hours of you guys rotating and playing Rock Band.

[@NickLip09]

Ever noticed how you never see Brad and Rick Astley in the same room..?

[@MrSteJ]

Gotta say, Brad's Rick Astley is impressive.

[@alzaffino5140]

I could watch Jeff and Vinny go back and fourth with the cliche 80's, angry teenager bit all day.

[@outsideofadream]

Like they were channeling the spirit of John Hughes.

[@KentPittsburgh]

I love how Brad is the most chill person and has the deepest voice but breaks out the falsetto like a beast! Hahaha, great job Brad and all!

[@KevinGomez-dx3ut]

“JEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESUS CHRIIIIST” - Vinny C, 2016.

[@WolfShirtTheBand]

dan finally discovering the true meaning of ska is the capstone 2017 needed for me, thank you giant bomb

[@Hapos06]

Press F to pay respects to Alex's vocal cords.

[@blankslate6364]

There are two types of people - Those who most look forward to Brad singing, and those who most look forward to Dan singing. I am one of the latter.

[@CornThatLefty]

I was excited for Ben to sing...

[@SuplexThisBear]

I look forward to Vinny singing

[@clarknova1567]

Alex is my spirit animal and Brad is my teacher. Jeff is the grumpy Uncle who is secretly more powerful than all of us combined.

[@Cakeyyama]

I love Brad's voice!

[@chaserdk]

I came for brad's voice and was not disappointed

[@dubfoot1659]

I’ve listened to the giant bombcast for at least five years and have never delved much further. Today, Brad Shoemaker, your angelic voice alone has convinced me to sign up for a premium subscription. 12 hours after my first viewing it still makes no sense.

[@manuel0578]

does the premium subscription get you more of brad singing? :O

[@ripelivejam]

It gets you a lot of great stuff, but I fucking wish it did. Maybe best it's not overdone.

[@NickLip09]

I needed this video to remind me why I love Abby after the GOTY discussions

[@Armaan8014]

Oh no now I'm scared to listen to the podcast

[@johnnymarbles6130]

he speaks the truth

[@SuplexThisBear]

Vinnys squat before he starts singing gets me every year

[@eureeka8781]

Brad singing makes me so happy

[@johnnycanuck2]

Brad's voice is legitimately unreal.

[@drdevman]

Alex’s guttural vocals of Amon Amarth is a thing of beauty.

[@ronaldodemetriusescondido3626]

Hahaha Abby is REALLY going for it!! The enthusiasm, the showmanship!

[@lincekid]

Brad singing Heart is impressive as is but going full on falsetto for the last part is a kind of amazing that I never knew existed.

[@aaroncamacho7909]

"I wore shorts for, probably, 5 years straight because I was that kind of dip shit." - Jeff

[@DanishingAct]

The abby/ben couch commentary was gold.

[@MrSteJ]

Watching this makes me want to get the Rock Band kit out again. *One. last. time*

[@davepriest2334]

Stephen Johnston Haha, Alexs stream made me get Guitar Hero and Rock Band out again

[@MrSteJ]

It'll be worth it!

[@bulls123gg44]

The volume is way off. Can barely hear the singer and the band compared to the people on the couch. Last year was way better in that aspect. There have been a couple videos where the volume has been off. Love the content as always though.

[@Candlelightcat_]

The best age of giantbomb

[@acstine]

I love how much Alex loves Rock Band.

[@KaneRobot]

So glad they brought this back this year. Best year end segment.

[@speedhuntr]

Abby is the dynamic frontwoman we always needed.

[@iamtheburninator]

As someone who has seen Amon Amarth live twice, Alex killed it! (In a good way)

[@AWISECROW]

I love seeing Alex smile at Abby's enthusiasm.

[@JohnyScissors]

We'll get the full version of Jeff singing It's Tricky some day

[@fightingfoos]

Johnny Scissors Release the tapes

[@_gorezone_]

Ben playing drums and drinking beer simultaneously on Time After Time nominated for 2018's Best Moment of 2017.

[@eduardorivera8996]

THIS NEEDED TO BE WAY LONGER, WE NEED MORE

[@KyleS.1987]

You remember that song we used to play?

[@TonyBlue87]

Lemme grab my bass...

[@colemanoke]

Alex is an absolute hero

[@dubfoot1659]

I did not expect that voice to come out of Brad. 🤟🏼

[@jgoods4444]

Brad is AMAZING!

[@Dontrel3030]

The backstage banter is the best part and as a bonus will probably keep this video from getting muted.

[@fran529]

Yes, how could you not do this.

[@BornHero]

Abby is really awesome

[@klaettermus]

I urge you to go listen to last year when Alex sang ”Sabotage”.

[@TheSimianChannel]

BRAD IS SO FUCKING GOOD HOLY SHIT

[@manuel0578]

i've been dead inside for years until i've heard brad sing for the first time (at 34:00)...it's so beautiful 😭 . now i'm in love with brad 😍😍😍 are there more videos of him singing? i've gone back to the 2016 show and checked that out. amazing "modern love"! any others? and i wish there was a version of this video with all the talking removed!

[@MopeyThomas]

I skipped right to Brad’s part

[@mauricehicks5383]

brad is killin it!! love it

[@rafaelgoncalves2879]

Every Abby scream I die lmao

[@jaejae9906]

I can't believe the mic rudely interupted Abby's perfect 'Time after time' performance like that

[@tycowpie]

Waiting for the isolated vocals, thanks!

[@protopet9604]

Damn, Brad can sing really well

[@VillainTricks]

THE BOIS ARE BACK IN TOWN

[@Djangolulu]

Abby singing gives me life

[@Sye909]

The secret best member of Giant Bomb. Don't tell any body.

[@TheSonicWafflez]

Abby belting out Stevie Nicks is perfect!

[@makiller_]

How could anybody possibly dislike this video lol.

[@doktordrosel4052]

Johan Hegg would be proud of Alex. lol

[@Macho_Fantastico]

Brad Shoemaker... voice of an angel!

[@ripelivejam]

I'm stealing all of Abby's moves.

[@Jrome4life]

Beer and rockband

[@shivhappy22]

Props Alex, you killed that Amon Amarth song.

[@ReZiN8R]

Lol that was worth watching just to see Abby's drumming faces. :D

[@dylanj.cenneno771]

“Im blowing up yr spot...but you bought a lighter today!”

[@musicjail]

I love abby's YEEOW!! to trigger star power

[@diabolicboy6]

Sweet sassy molassy. Brad has the voice of an angel .

[@bizzymoose9021]

Brad's actually a good singer.

[@Aeravon]

I wanna hang out with these people :( They are awesome.

[@Armaan8014]

Same

[@TheJoLe94]

Dabby is the soul of music.

[@wesley830]

omg Brad's voice is amazing

[@WizardofWestmarch]

Someone else linked it in the comments, but Brad doing More Than Words was a revelation to me, though I'd heard some of him before.

[@Z_Twe12e]

I don't know how Dan and Brad can play the guitar and bass and not try to sing back up or dance or something. It's half the fun! Edit: Kudos to Abby for pumping the guitar up to hard. Edit2: Jeff knows what's up.

[@josephspann991]

It's nice to see Dan singing Eddie Money!! I remember him doing the same thing during the playthrough of Half Life Super Replay years ago.

[@MacGyver_Lamb]

Brad just totally destroys it. Bravo.

[@jasonw3200]

Love it!

[@kyz1234]

dan's singing would be a good running gag in a sitcom

[@melvinl9993]

Vinnie's "what the fuck" face when Alex is singing the last song is priceless.

[@SiGhast]

Jesus fucking Christ. I clicked on this with "for those about to rock, we salute you" in my head, sort of half-imagining someone saying it as an introduction, but not actually expecting it.

[@littlecurrybread]

Brad has a great voice

[@betterinsodapop]

Brad with those pipes!

[@vedicardi]

dan singing never fucking gets old

[@stephenbatchelor7400]

This is pretty fuckin awesome

[@nickd7036]

Ben looks cozy

[@nickd7036]

More than words

[@SasukeJR]

Anybody else feel uncomfortable when Jeff mentions running into his old band-mate? Definitely have been that guy to say "hey I remember this thing we talked about years ago" sounds like the dude just wanted to hang out. Definitely also been on the other side of that though.

[@manovincent]

The vocals volume is way off. Last year was so much better. :(

[@doug2133]

Abby is the secret hero of Giant Bomb.

[@speedhuntr]

nothing secret about it!

[@jeremyjones3205]

Haha haha Abby is a goober

[@corey768]

Abby rocks! :)

[@radiantg8452]

After you hear Brad, you'll want to watch this next. kzbin.info/www/bejne/oqDHf5yvmb6nqc0

[@jeremyjones3205]

Mutha Fuckin Rock Band!!!!! Fuck yeah!!!

[@goolare2771]

BRAD MAH BOI!

[@cm2jayant]

Look at vinny’s fucking face when alex is singing

[@Roxfox]

Fuck yeah!

[@SiGhast]

Dan's second song was almost disappointingly well-performed. I was hoping Alex would do a growling/screaming song, but he might have made an argument for the need to warm up. First verse was awesome, but then it was all throat from there! I'm glad he did it though.

[@ATWDigital]

Abby is my spirit animal.

[@YourTaciturnFriend]

"The girl with the crazy red hair? N-no... s-she's not with us... Never seen her before... She just followed us into the karaoke booth and wouldn't go away..."

[@bmarko]

Adventure Land!

[@dudeglove]

I love art

[@Callico_]

Brad Astley

[@foxdark22]

With Drew the sound would have been good. :( Also what's the point if I can't hear Brad...

[@Nagittchi]

Hot damn I thought the East vs West esports tourney was the last video.

[@scribejay]

"lez mis-er-ahblez" ... I'm glad Dan left.

[@Eowyn_Arwen]

luv dis

[@eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeo]

Ben at 20:00 😝
