Because KZbin knows what's good for all of us

[@majicrabbit5217]

Honestly, the first thing I realized was that this was posted a year after Minecraft came out

[@theperfectcell6]

I love how this thing almost sounds orchestral when big chords are hit!

[@thomasklaverdijk6431]

[@lorilange8654]

Wow THAT'S AMAZING!!!! The sound was incredible the pipes where designed in unison to the right sounds as if in perfect tune.. WELL done this is one talented young man there..

[@chevtothemax]

lol Mario being played on a bunch of pipes.

[@theslashmanrc7503]

He should paint it green like the tubes in super smash bros. That would be awesome. I am sorry if I dont have the right game. It has been a little while.

[@williamhepworth6360]

he was probably better than the actual game

[@LP7417]

I love seeing the smiles on peoples faces when they recognize a tune. Even the emotionless guy at the right in the blue top eventually cracked at the james bond theme. You are very talented.

[@ELgamingification]

At least he didn't sit at the back like the guy in blue on the right looking bored as fuck the whole performance... I prefer people that get involved a lot more tbh.

[@blarin]

ELgaming Sometimes it's good but sometimes you just look dumb and you annoy people.

[@redstonepro5009]

The hey song (which is the last song) is what our band performs in all of our concerts. It's our main song. Sad part is that I'm the only trombone player in like six years.

[@hubiesevilla5157]

who agrees that this instrument is drum + piano?

[@matthewmmarr]

+René “Fizgerald” van Emelen There is a word for it. Tubulum.

[@Phillesfan8]

Actually it's a drum/marimba but i would be surprised if the average person knew what that was

[@theBEnjamin32_]

Percussion

[@sawyerspearman5297]

Hasven the Man no its more marimba+organ. marimba because of the set up and play style, and organ because of the tubes

It's strange, you'd think the mics would be placed at the bottom of the instrument, not where you're playing, Kent, but where the sounds are actually coming from (the open ends of the pipes). Always love when you double time it btw, keep up the good work

[@DinoSawce]

That announcer guy really annoyed me the whole time

I saw this yesterday and I think it is COOL!

Hey, Snubby J, congratulations on being featured on the Cheeseburger Network! When i saw you on Epic Win FTW, I made sure to tell everyone who you are and to go visit your channel on KZbin.

[@snubbyj]

Hi KZbinrs, For those of you wondering, yes, I will play other songs and medleys in the future. (Once I am done with my finals to be exact). The reason why I played a similar medley was because it was a new crowd of people who had not seen my instrument yet or had only seen me online. So, enjoy the little changes I have made and please enjoy my older videos as well! Thanks, Snubby J

[@golfenjoyer8065]

I mean hearing it twice doesn't make it bad with your performance

This is my first time watching this but I knew the comments would be roasting the blue guy and not appreciating the music😂

[@roboyurch88]

great video as always, but the guy on the left dancing made it amazing...

[@acgrievance]

I don't understand why everyone is hating on the guy with the blue hair. First of all, he was having fun. Let him enjoy himself for God's sake, okay? A majority of these comments are about him, and I don't know why. Everybody's​ saying that's he's annoying and they want to punch him, but I don't see the need to. Also, that "funny dancing" was sort of the style back in 2010. So, yeah
