erad5 Pretty much. They had all just started taking lessons, and figured a "Live on the Lawn" event at a local music store was the perfect place to show off their newly acquired "skills". Sad story, that store is no longer open. The owner didn't know shit about running a business, and his wife had a bad habit of taking money from the register to get her hair and nails done, so any hired help they had running that trainwreck came out unpaid. They weren't even around when it tanked, they made up some BS about needing to be out of state for something and everything from inside that was tossed out on the street was taken by neighbors or people who would actually appreciate and take care of it.

What really sucks is when the person who fucks up rips on you for doing fine. I was in a band for a live gig. The rhythm guitarist/singer wanted to do a song we'd not planned on doing, rehearsed once, months earlier, never really had, but he really wanted to do it. Sure. So, I joked aloud - I don't remember the chords, but I'll follow. It was one of our best songs of the night. The lead guitarist didn't remember it either, never sure when to solo. It was just the three of us. I was on bass and playing a heavy rhythm to keep the beat. The audience was clapping along. The irony - the singer had totally messed up. He'd skipped a solo, forgot a chorus, restarted a verse, and didn't know how to end it. Afterwards he ripped me a new one and how maybe I should have sheet music. Yeah, I got the song fine and kept up with him. The lead guitarist held back playing a few times as he was totally lost. But, yeah, blame me.

Hidious Vanity I would say it may be experimental and strange, but you can hear lots of messups and bad sounds that could be improved upon.

[@pangexp]

Glenn Mendoza Actually it's Behold... The Arctopus. Very technical metal band.

[@burtreynolds2969]

The ride cymbal stole the show during comfortably numb.

[@BstandardDan]

damn the butchering of comfortably numb. At the point i would of just ran random pentatonic licks

[@patrickmurphy9186]

I’m willing to bet the guitarist and bassist don’t know any pentatonic licks..

[@lordofthemound3890]

@@patrickmurphy9186 they also seem to have no concept of key nor time.

[@SRHMusic012]

So, uh, these are obviously fake, satirical videos, like a lot of others out there ('shred videos'). Am I missing a second level of the joke where everyone comments as if these had the actual audio?

[@DROWXXI]

For anyone that wants to play like lil Wayne his guitar is tuned to F-A-G-G-O-T

[@buzzerking]

The guy has a daughter so doubtful.

[@RasberrySkittle]

Being gay and terrible at guitar is two very different things. Checkout Prince's guitar-solo's for an illustration.

[@user-bu6xk1yr8w]

A joke that aged like the finest of milks.

[@flatterswhite]

mike lerner? more like MIKE LERNER TO PLAY FUCKING GUITAR!

[@agustinmancini7020]

Ohhhhhh

[@goldexcyte4123]

He plays like a lerner

[@cameronwall5159]

I was literally thinking the same thing and was about to post the same comment, no lie, lol

[@streamofconsciousness5826]

Phrasing is everything. I think #3 was intentional if I remember right. Bass Player looking to see if he hit the right note 1:35

[@MattHibbard1993]

I actually love number 4, its like some velvet underground noise rock shit

[@georgetourlos5840]

It sounds like they are covering "blinded by the light" (solo)

[@benwillis124]

The two guys at 0:20 sound like Beavis and Butthead

[@helluvaday123]

thats why i dont shred mindlessly

[@tayron27]

I was at this Limp Bizlit gig at Finsbury Park in 2003 when Fred played that. It sounded even worse in person.

[@mosesarea51]

Number 3 needs more cowbell...

[@GAME4WAR]

I have never touched a guitar in my life but i'm pretty sure that i can do whatever it was that Lil Wayne was doing.

[@pokerworld]

I’ve played guitar my whole life and I can confirm, yes you can

[@wallacecarvalho5032]

Wow... that's inspiring... maybe i'm not so bad after all. Yay!

[@daniellegilmour9052]

#5 is sick. They sound like they would fit in well with a mathcore band, or some technical avante garde metal.

[@bloodysteel6429]

The dude at number three just seemed like he had just started playing and he made a band with his friends... the only thing he needs is a few lessons... the vocalist on the other hand... yikes. As for the number two spot... everyone in the audience through up their hands and said "Never mind!"

[@jeffmclowry]

I was gonna say I could do worse but then those guys pretending to play Comfortably Numb came on and I decided I couldn't. lol

[@PEHNKSTA]

I dig the number 4 solo. Confessions it fits the song better than the actual solo

[@Dzastater]

what is the name of the song and or band?

[@buckdashe2571]

Feels like I just spent three minutes in Guitar Center.

[@TheRiooir]

I really like number 4

[@totoyimbalido]

4 could be good, I think he somehow forgot his effects (maybe)

[@RingAnimated]

That first one isn't bad. Behold...The Arctopus is a form of jazz, meaning improvisation takes place on leads often. They are actually a very badass band doing what they do with only 3 people (the drummer isn't in that video.)

[@BSGC]

The comfortably numb solo and singer made me projectile vomit.

[@szymonbalcer]

I cannot believe that some people said Lil Wayne is better then Kirk hammett *FacePalm*

[@caperUnderscore26]

Obvious trolling is obvious... :)

[@matthewhennan6164]

Lil wayne couldnt play guitar to save his life

[@szymonbalcer]

***** No some of the rap fans are actually serious about it as they have no idea about guitar. .__.

[@HisDudeness1986]

Simeey These are the same fuckers who preferred Lil' Wayne's playing over Yngwie Malmsteen because he has "feeling" in his guitar playing. Really? You're either trolling or you're just that stupid.

[@szymonbalcer]

Bryan Reyna Ayt stfu, dont want to start argument with you.

[@NicholasWhiteside]

And that's how Jazz was born.

[@tiluriso]

With the exception of # 5, all these guys are über-amateurs and/or beginner guitarists who clearly don't practice in any remotely disciplined fashion. However, #5 is 'a pro' and should know his 'thing' must be labeled 'Harmonically&Melodically-Chaotic-Free-Metal-Shred' -BTW, guys in Slayer played quite a bit like that. #4 has no concept of scales, keys, let alone phrasing...#3, the Floyd cover band; for what is worth, the singer and especially the bassist are equally bad and co-responsible for that catastrophic event. And Lil Wayne was at least playing more or less on the beat, in time.

[@StratOnFire]

you're so right!

[@Brianybug]

Comfortably Numb.....describes all of these guy's fingers.

[@redlenseglasses4111]

#5, is that an electric Sitar? I need me one of those. #4, your guitar sounds like a singer with strep throat. Sick. In a bad way. #3, NEVER drink and play...well, unless you're good, and you aren't. #2, Just...oh dear...This is horrific #1, SHUT UP LIL' WAYNE, YOU DID ROCK MUSIC FOR LIKE THREE MINUTES, OKAY, WE DON'T NEED TO GO BACK!!

[@paudeline]

The instrument from #5 is called a Chapman Stick.

[@redlenseglasses4111]

Thank you

[@tweevers2]

#5 is a Warr Guitar they make 8 -14 string guitars....A chapman stick doesn't have a body just a fat neck piece of wood all the way down warrguitars.com/
