Isn't Jerry a god?

[@prometheusvenom7189]

He’s bigger than both. He is Jerry Cantrell

[@rushnerd]

Jerry Cantrell is a legend and they honestly did a pretty good job at making this look awesome.

[@jamestetrick923]

Saw him on a Solo tour in the 90's! We pushed our way up to the front and leaned on the fence while he did a cover of darkside of the moon with him singing all the lyrics. Everyone lit up their lighters and it was just dark, still get goosebumps thinking about how magic that moment was.

[@RedroomStudios]

James Tetrick sounds like the same tour I saw him on... when he was solo, opening for Metallica.

[@mypetblackhole5793]

Why is it he's only nominated for Grammys 8 times? Isn't time to stop? He deserves the recognition of the RRHOF. An the 8 Grammys he so rightfully deserves!

[@Emberwolf06]

I love how no one in the crowd cares even remotely that one of the most devoted and talented guitarists ever is on stage in front of them jamming. I guess they'd rather go listen to Kesha than hear someone with true talent and devotion to music play.

[@NegativeCreepYT]

I think they have no idea.

[@grahamkelly8299]

I've always loved his style. But his groove and timing is what makes him really special!!

[@GLLCJ]

at first i was like HOLY SHIT ROCKSMITH 2014 then i was like HOLY SHIT ITS JERRY CANTRELL

[@pt88gt]

Yes Jerry is def a god...

[@freakreaction9132]

Jerry Legend Cantrell

[@PJCochrane]

The fastest way to learn guitar is to pick one up and fkn practice. There is no 'fast way'. I've been playing 28 years and I still learn every day.

[@coldmaster1034]

Same. I play for about 10 years and I am learnin new things everyday. Practice is everything.

[@user-bj2jq4nr2c]

I love jerry cantrell

[@BryanDenham]

holy moly Rocksmith just got even better , the session mode looks very fun

[@lisabirgittejensen259]

That man rocks 🔥🔥🔥

[@bigdbrew]

He's doing just fine, I'm sure this was a big money deal for him.

[@encizojoshua]

I love the middle part of his improve

[@truvak]

OMFG! that was awesome!

[@alexhart8229]

Yup still got it

[@pirterparquer96]

back to Brazil, Jerry! please

[@derekgornall]

I just put down my guitar after a hard time on Rocksmith. I don't know if I have the temperament to ever master this god damned instrument.

[@riotpolizei3522]

Buddy, I hear you. I had a moment of extreme frustration while trying to learn "Over Now" by Alice in Chains, which led me to make space between myself and my hobby. However, for every let down, there's an upbringing! As I picked up my bass afterwards, I learned how to play "I Stay Away". It was like a breath of fresh air, and really revitalized my desire to press on with playing my instruments. Hang in there!

[@osorissalgado3831]

Derek JCG Just enjoy it.Dont try and master it.No one can master the guitar.But you can have fun learning and playing.

[@patrickc.mcevoy2065]

The interface is everything man. If you hey frustrated easily then just forget it now cuz you'll go nutzo

[@HellcatCustoms]

Session Mode is literally nothing like that lol

[@TheGonxaplayerV3]

He's improvising, and the game supposedly follows your beat and rhythm with other instruments, creating like a practice session, very nice, huh?

[@AlanGonzalez-vq7bj]

My Hero

[@fixxxer928]

@ 1:52 surely he meant to say "Xbox" to get the voice command to listen to him, which would clearly prove it's being controlled backstage with the illusion that he's controlling it onstage... but it's naive to think they'd do a live presentation any other way.

[@UserDude]

thanks for the info ^.^ have nice day bro

[@wesrobert4716]

Fuckin Jerry He still my best Riff God

[@CCDaDon15]

If Jimi Hendrix had these games available to him when he was learning, he probably would have played them... Terrible examples. Especially with Slash. Slash is a character. Not anyone that the virtuosos worship.

[@ComaAlpha]

Slash is a living legend on the guitar. You sound like a salty little fan boy.

i was watching the live stream of the microsoft press conference ... i left my room and when i came back jerry was on stage ... I fell of my chair ! :D

[@danathor99]

No, he says "Rocksmith" at the start to issue voice command controls... You don't say "Xbox" in the games.

[@ComaAlpha]

Lana... Lana... LAAAAAANNNAAA! ...danger zone

[@fixxxer928]

My No.1 most anticipated game shown at E3! I make custom tracks for Rocksmith on my channel.

[@InflamedTonsils]

You're being pretty silly, man. I'm sure most of these guys would be more than happy to see Jerry Cantrell in his native environment (playing with Alice in Chains, that is) but this was at a video game conference, and everyone was hyped to see new videogames. Jerry Cantrell was standing inbetween them and video game announcements. If they announced a new video game at an Alice in Chains concert, most fans would be more excited about seeing Jerry Cantrell than the new video game.

[@sonatarctica94]

Oh if I had been there I would climb on the stage to hug him :)

[@fixxxer928]

So i'm assuming the devs assign the keyword themselves for their games so the Kinect understands you're about to tell it something. I've never used Kinect in a game before.

[@celsoch]

FUCK YEAH \o/

[@prometheusvenom7189]

God I love his yellow les paul.

[@Starkeymander]

I started on rocks it's but this is how it'll go. Rocks it's 2014 release new guitarist will pick it up 70% will drop guitar within the first few months the standing audience will the be 30% of the newcomers and people who already play.

[@patriciaestok9329]

That tone though.

[@mrjacob0101]

this is real music

[@GLLCJ]

then how will you go out and by the game?

[@NickCasale]

That's what I was thinking....this seems really sad. Although I'm sure it probably isn't...

[@allstar930]

This is dope as fuck!

[@tomwoodfield7712]

So if you play in a certain key, the band will play in the same key? And change tempo with you?

[@elvisjsax]

Yes, wicked, right?

[@ALGURION]

i never play guitar im my life...and i need so much to learn i have a play 3 and u guys think if i get this game and pract so much can i learn alone? thanks

[@elvisjsax]

Yeah, sure Just dedicate yourself and focus and you can be the next Hendrix!

[@GuitarMallen]

Not sure how I feel about this, it is kind of cool though.

[@Loufadorosssss]

Does Rocksmith comes with a Whammy pedal? :D (Kidding :P)

[@youscootyou]

I hope Europe gets this on time

[@thirdyZentradi]

interesting, he play it on a les paul and I can hear it's different. part of the contract huh

[@RedroomStudios]

thirdyZentradi what are you talking about?

[@thirdyZentradi]

+RedroomStudios for man in the box song, he usually uses G&L Rampage, but on this video, he uses a black Les Paul. www.rareelectricguitars.com/images/upload/Image/g-and-l-usa-rampage-jerry-cantrell-signature-blue-dress-10.jpg

[@elvisjsax]

Because Rocksmith has a contract with gibson When you buy a rocksmith special edition you get an epiphone guitar

[@dankhill6851]

thats cool, but in the real game theres no cadences at the end of the song (I.E it doesnt end eventually it stops when you do)

[@mrwaffles421]

i'm not leaving my house for the month of October.

[@thebeatboyz2197]

Does anyone know what amp he is using?

[@marmaladecream2233]

It's a Friedman... probably his signature Friedman head (not totally sure if it was out yet when this video was made, but he could have been playing a prototype).

[@JohnnieCrazy]

which is the second music ?

[@elvisjsax]

It's not a song. It's a jam session.

[@UserDude]

Go tell Jimi Hendrix or Slash you are rocking with a virtual band... see what they tell you xD damn tec gets crazy in ways you never even thought about! i want it! i want it noooww!

[@smokingmamasl]

shes so taller.

[@Balltongue84]

Not even for candy on Halloween?

[@WhenindoubtFUNKIT]

Clearly you can learn how to play with a band with this new session mode.

[@cantrellfanatic9515]

good lol

[@SalientBen]

Jimi was famous for pushing the boundaries of technology and having new kit designed to try and re-create the sounds in his amazing brain, however he's dead so nobody can tell him anything. ...and Slash isn't real, it's just some guy in a costume.

[@elduderino3995]

ComaAlpha its true, slash aint real.

[@kaijucifer3544]

Of course Legends aren't real, lmao. Legendary.

[@maxpepper]

what song is he playing? the 2nd one not man in the box

[@elvisjsax]

It's a jam It's not a song

[@nicholasnevola4811]

We know.

[@antoineherve7364]

I think it will be the end of guitar teachers.

[@cantrellfanatic9515]

Im not the real jerry.

[@vXxHollyxXv]

??????? I dont understand...

[@patrickc.mcevoy2065]

Hey, isn't that black girl the same one who played "charlie" on season 10 Friends? She had affairs with Joey then Ross...right?!

[@NickCasale]

This is kind of awkward, no? But still awesome. Jerry \ m /

[@TheJcarreno]

Take my money

[@kiasmanmcg4128]

Shit! Smart Jerry, Make That Money! AND Lana!Lana! Lana!!!!

[@tijuanaiguana190]

Haha good job jerry

[@eagorabia]

S E X O A N A L

[@AgainstAllGods]

Should have got Mick from Slipknot. He's a big gamer.

[@danathor99]

Stands to reason that you would use a legendary guitarist to demonstrate Rocksmith's abilities rather than some random Dev though...

[@6661joshua]

Audrey and kate approve

[@DeathDrumsA7X]

Should have used syn gates to play session mode for the metal band it would be sick

[@elvisjsax]

I BLOODY LOVE JERRY I'm a HUGE fan of his work. but he really should stop with his "and, uh..." and his "ya know?" lol

[@slipknot09444]

Vault Boy Human error

[@kaijucifer3544]

You're not as big a fan as you claim if that bothers you. Nothing he does or has done bothers me. I listen almost exclusively to his music and the rest of the Seattle sound.

[@smithk502]

Ha! even Jerry Cantrell cut his hair

[@mypetblackhole5793]

I read an interview somewhere that that particular hair cut was an accident. Opps!

[@adolfogueva]

$30 million net worth? Not at all tough times for Jerry.

[@MecoJoeyRamone]

no is not

[@unicornscrzyy]

#$w4g and #y0l0

[@JetFixxxer]

Show off ;)

[@TheJosephmoore1]

#Yolo

[@MikeRKO316]

LAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA??!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol

[@Blech319]

Poor Jerry... tough times.

[@elvisjsax]

Tough times? 30 million net worth... I wish I had these tough times

[@Kolomow]

Because he's obviously an Alice in Chains fan and thinks Jerry "sells out" by doing video game promo to sell his records. Well, although I get that I still think it's pretty cool.

[@MikeRKO316]

haha Aisha Tyler #GirlWood lmao

[@shanelindsey1443]

“Rocksmith is the fastest way to learn to play the guitar” I bought this for 60 bucks. Save that money and try Ultimate guitar tabs they are much easier to learn and you can play anything you can think of. I bought Rocksmith and tried it and songs I knew were near a impossible to follow it’s like playing a even harder rockband and guitar hero because take those five buttons and multiply it by a hundred and you got this game it is just a waste of money just buy Ultimate Guitar Tabs you will thank me later.

[@Berbs73]

I fuvking love Jerry, but this is way too contrived. Money controls everything. Even our rock stars.
