Rehearsing Tornado to get back on the 2022 Megadeth Tour

[@TheArtofGuitar]

This is really cool to see Kiko. It's rare to be able to see a band putting in the hard hours in order to make a show what it is in the end. Thanks for sharing.

[@ShredmasterScott]

Kiko is the consummate professional….makes me wanna practice 69 hrs per day

[@lemarcmty]

Dont for get the WAP juice for stamina and endurance 🤪

[@nicolasurrieta7335]

Lord Shred! Nice to see you

[@krisstieghorst7415]

Hello Mr. Shred ! 👋Been watching your channel for awhile, Impressive Skills! Might we be seeing 👀 more " My Problem With Kiko Loureiro " videos in the future? 😅😅😅🍻👍💋🦋🖤🦋

[@henryashbee7297]

I'm already practicing 42hrs from my classical days so 69 shouldn't be too difficult to achieve

[@acutemadness]

i think i remember dave mustaine said he doesn't practice much now but chris broderick did and i guess kiko does too

[@Buglips_D_Goblin]

There is a lot of chemistry between Kiko, Dirk, and James. I hope this line-up stays solid enough for all to contribute on the next album, that could be some real magic.

[@hilcaminhoesmassa1804]

One of their best line-up for sure

[@joeskis]

They are making a new album?

[@orangutanxremix510]

Dave isn’t letting anyone compose besides Kiko. And that’ll just be solos.

[@but-why.]

@@orangutanxremix510 It's for the best

[@guitarrerist698]

@@orangutanxremix510 thats not true.

[@StockA4]

One of my small joys in life is watching Kiko rip through one of the greatest solos ever written. And no matter how many times he does it, you can still see him sink himself into it. That solo has a soul, and he has managed to merge with it.

[@robroblox8844]

But he did change the ending this time. Kinda cop out since that last part is blazing speed

[@bwgti]

@@robroblox8844 . He practices a lot in the videos. He will probably get better one day.

[@communist5813]

Rob. Count the times Marty played that part live lol. From what I've heard, nobody got it down right. But I'd like to see you do it.

[@Denmark_1974]

Dirk is headbanging in a simpel warm up situation - Love that🤟🏼

[@robroblox8844]

He seems to keep time banging his head

[@TenzisL]

He is practicing for headbanging not for playing drums😂😂😂

[@bozoclowning6400]

Thankyou Kiko for involving us in the process of the tour. This makes me feel like I'm part of the band, and or at least involved. Fantastic band.

[@mattvideoeditor]

Yes, its even weird how other bands don do this. Kiko is pioneering a very awesome musician career.

[@MaestroJericho]

Honestly seems like he's took over as Dave's number two for a while. I don't think he's had anyone ever have this position where Kiko is like the Megadeth rep since Dave's probably too busy.

[@MSpotatoes]

@@MaestroJericho I agree, its cool as hell. I've gotten to see Megadeth in a whole new light since Kiko joined.

[@mattluvsrush]

Kiko, just saw you play an hour ago in phoenix. I am so glad you are in megadeth. You bring so much proficiency and joy to the the show. The band has not been this good since Marty left. You not only fill those shoes, you need bigger ones! P.S. Thanks for coming back to give me a few others near me a fist bump after the Q&A sincerely, the chubby guy who yelled your name as you walked away. I am now and will always be your fan. My wife understands why I watch all these videos now. She now knows how awesome you are.

[@maxf8234]

HI KIKO ! Long time Megadeth fan here : Thank you for reviving megadeth . I just bought a Ibanez kiko10bp and I love it ! When can we have another album like Open source ?

[@asicerik]

So strange to see Tornado with NONE of the original band members :) Love you Kiko, thanks for these videos they are just awesome!

[@SixStringRacer]

Back stage views are amazing. 3 dudes jamming in a tiny room, that was so sick! My new favorite KZbin channel

[@elkuervojuarez1890]

Kiko as always a blessing. But i love that quick rehersal at toom level . You can see how good and tight they are . Everyone 100% on their game . Straigh and accurately done no need for flash gear . Bedrooms level so that everyone can see and perfectly hear what each other are doing . Thats how you make sure there is no mistakes. You catch a mistake and you fix it . Massive kiko massive!!!!

[@AbiARDH.Official]

this guys and his 2 friends covering Megadeth song so perfect...

[@zhakorino4746]

Drummer needs more practice

[@AbiARDH.Official]

@@zhakorino4746 yes

[@somethingelse04]

Okay buddy

[@GilbertNaudet]

Dirk's passion for a rehearsal for a song that he most probably played minimum 5000 times is amazing. I envy the people have such passion for the work they are doing.

[@diegofumiato]

Kiko sos un gran representante de latinoamerica en el mundo, virtuoso guitarrista y mejor persona!

[@bumpstockbilly4263]

thanks for all the back-stage footage, we really enjoy the behind-the-scenes-glimpse into the band and the players and crew and logistics. it adds a whole 'nother level of both intimacy and information unto our entertainment-paradigm...................peace, bless, much love........

[@robroblox8844]

Yea we need more of that and more explanation of the gear and slower camera footage of it

[@SteveOuimette]

I love watching you three in a tiny room with an electronic kit and small amps. You can see, hear and feel the tightness and vibe coming through loud and clear...and how well that will translate to a big room with the big PA. Something very satisfying about hearing the e-drums unplugged. I can hear the sound superimposed in my head. Thank you for sharing, so cool!

[@shawntapley6733]

you know, it's one thing when a rock star is on stage, and they have that energy radiating from them when they shred through an impossible solo. to see the same thing executed cold in a small rehearsal with no crowd energy almost makes it even more jaw dropping because you can here how damn precise kiko is with everything

[@ddaddybass]

As a bass player I think Dirk is a complete BADASS! I would love to jam with him.

[@mickymaus2969]

[@armstrong3167]

The only comment is Megadeth is still kickin' ass in 2022 & Kiko you the man!!! Be safe on tour & have fun!!! 🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@krisstieghorst7415]

We're glad your back Kiko! Thanks for taking the time for us all to enjoy these on & off stage clip's from the road..Best part of this clip was watching you 3 play in a room smaller than a bathroom stall! Exceptional 👍 Cheers to Megadeth on the 2nd leg of this tour! Looking forward to seeing the show! 🦋🖤🦋

[@SilverKnife0311]

Congrats on the 600k followers!! Well deserved! Great content.

[@claudevieaul1465]

Thanks for this video Kiko!! As a fellow live musician I always enjoy seeing backstage footage of how the big boys are doing on tour - all the aspects of this life. The gig is, by comparison, just such a small part of your daily routine, but that's usually all the audience gets to see, so this is really enlightening 🙏😎 Enjoy the tour!! Megadeth is still going *very" strong indeed, and everyone in the band is absolutely topnotch... Long may that continue!! 🤘🤘

[@fabpern]

Kiko, you're a fantastic guitar player and a great human being!

[@caioc4]

Thanks, Kiko, I feel so close to the band following your channel, it's amazing.

[@forcedtosignup2]

Just saw you in Mountain View. What an awesome show. Brought my three sons. They were impressed by you and are now solid Megadeth fans!

[@FIATLUX333]

[@Rikkii2]

The new album is actually incredible! 2022 is megadeth's year I'm telling ya!

[@markslima1557]

I love this video and the format - great behind the peek scenes of one of the greatest metal bands in history!

[@TheCyberMantis]

That "Torpedo Of Soap" song really kicks ass. You guys should include that one on your next album! ( Too funny, the only bread I eat is Dave's Killer Bread 21-grain. LoL! )

[@gainonten4031]

Kiko thanks for showing the life of a pro musician. I love how you stay healthy, proficient, and sharp at all levels. You are a great example on how to be successful at any career. Thank you

Always great to see the best band on the planet with updates on tour. Your an inspiration more than you know Kiko. Thanks for all you do. Cheers and see you on the Killing Road !!

[@Cyril0C]

I am so happy I want to cry. Tornado of souls is my favorite song of the band, it seems obvious but all my friends don't even understand Megadeth. I just ordered the last vinyl yesterday because I felt the album would remind me of rust in peace. I looks like that's what they revive ! I only listened two tracks to be sure and will hear the rest as soon as it arrives !

[@hunterjessup]

Watched these videos for a few days then I realized this tour was coming to Houston this Friday. Can't wait to see you, Kiko!

[@TheStringDojo]

I love that the drummer bangs in the rehearsal practice, so cool!

[@futileextant]

The smile at the end of the video is why I wanna become a musician, he looks and feels so happy and accomplished from their show, I want that feeling..

[@PhantomDeth]

Wow you got this one out pretty quick.. Got to love seeing more of the other guys to in these videos. Megadeth family on the road

[@sysop007]

Kiko, I had honestly wrote Megadeth off especially since the recent lineup changes mainly the bassist deal (i still don’t agree with) and hadn’t honestly heard of you. Now after seeing you play i can’t think of anyone who could fill Friedman’s shoes (or even surpass him) more so better than you. Incredible guitarist and positivity I think megadeth sorely needed. You single handedly have pulled me back into Megadeth so thank you. 👏🏼

[@ryu-ken]

[@richfiryn]

Met you guys in Virginia Beach for the record signing and had a ticket for the show the following day at the amphitheater but fell asleep and missed it. That's a first for me. Dubious achievement award.

[@jonbrowne8334]

Just love these videos Kiko! I could watch you guys on tour all day and it looks really tough being away from family and living on the road. The TOS clip was unreal! Thanks

[@robert.-]

I love the energy between these 3 dudes. They've brought so much new life into Megadeth. Cheers!

[@Metalbass1979]

Kiko, you're the one guitarist who has brought my love of Megadeth back to what it was in the 80's and 90's.

We just saw you in Albuquerque and my sons were absolutely going wild the whole set. “We’ll be back” sounded like pure thrash channeling and had so many dynamic parts. Can’t wait to get the new album. Thanks for a great show, and giving us an inside look behind the Megadeth machine!

[@NoName-xf1iz]

Been checking out your videos the past couple of days and it's easy to see how much you still love your work. The camera likes you and your smile. That leads me to believe that you should consider creating some deeper documentaries (non Megadeth) when off tour. I think that would be a good fit for you. Cheers.
