Awesome awesome awesome. This teacher who puts this together should get an award.

[@kvnftzsmmns]

I would have killed for this in High School haha.

[@georgegetson7393]

Wow. Do we really need another school shooter?

[@patrickmccormack1928]

Although Shakey is young, he has meaningful experience of men twice his age. His music proves "processes are more important than chords or measures." The young adults in the class were fortunate, very fortunate.

that retune in time at 1:07 is gold

[@madisonolinger7515]

Oh my gosh, was it an assignment for them to ask questions? I'd be like, "UMMMMMMMMMM SO WHERES DROOPY WEINERS??"

[@aBIGdeadHEAD]

[@TheFibtastic]

I'm all, "what other possible affectation can this dude acquire" and then he's all "hold my beer" and breaks out the one man band drum/tambourine combo. Genius.

[@heatherhammers]

[@jolsonrobert6058]

Are you shitting me?! I live thirty minutes away from this high school and had no idea! This is seriously one of Kansas's few redeeming qualities lol

[@maycmarch4643]

How many cameras did y'all use to film?

[@rudyramirez125]

Lucky....fucking....kids....lol, I would have given anything to see this here at my school in Texas. >_

[@dboogie7871]

What guitar is he playing it sounds so good

[@Planclanman3]

It’s a hollow one. Gives it that cool haunting sound.

[@hey-jax]

I think it's a Loar (hollow body).

[@GAZDAGP]

Did all the kids run off with the mike, or what happened?

[@MrJohnMarbles]

the proper response is to freak out

[@seang.7680]

Hey, this is the dude from Friday Night Lights, wtf!

[@lilguava70]

+Sean G. Yep! He was in Friday Night Lights and played a few other small parts in films.

[@seang.7680]

Nice

[@reedscottnohrenberg]

hes singing way too quietly

[@BradWhittemore]

It was his voice vs. an amplified guitar, which did you think was gonna win? Lol.

[@selfpittypiggy]

Reed Scott Nohrenberg He's also in a carpeted classroom which is not an ideal place for a musical performance. The walls do not resonate sound, that's why he sounds so flat and faint.

[@reedscottnohrenberg]

nah i just think his projection is gone from all them smokes

[@mohammadbalatero9949]

Reed Scott Nohrenberg lol . no

[@246madhatter]

I like this song but one thing that always disappoints me is he never plays the bridge of the song like he does in the actual track. you know why? because like all musicians, he used auto tune

[@georgegetson7393]

So what??? If it sounds good then fuck it. I don't know why you have to be such an idiot.
