YOUTUBE SHREDDER OF THE DAY

Tuesday, August 19th, 2008 at 1:19pm by

Crustcake posted a tremendous video of this young lad shredding it up for the video camera. Yeah, the kid can play — but his technical chops pale in comparison to his face-making, winking, and bedroom theatrics. A+++++

    Mclovin’s retarded brother sure can shred, those are probly the same faces he makes when hes wanking to rush album art.

    Cool Spongebob squarepants poster!

    You know, there’s a reason a lot of the guitar playing videos on YouTube have people’s heads cut off. Its just so hard to take someone seriously when they’re making faces like that.

    It must be fake. Or he is the only shredder who wears a nirvana t-shirt

    Guys, totally real. Even if it isn’t, it’s more of an accomplishment to be able to pantomime that so well! You can even hear some slips that are accounted for in the video, too.

    Also, Vince, think you can arrange a caption contest where the prize is meeting this guy? He’s so fucking badass!

    @Tyler: Upload a video with you besting this gentleman in both technical ability AND facemaking prowess, then get back to us. Thanks.

    Conor, that is genius. Vince, do your best!

  • Sammy

    After Ralphie got the Red Ryder BB gun, he quickly lost interest and found the guitar.

    @Sammy: I SWEAR TO GOD, IF YOU CONTINUE TO ONE-UP ME ON FUNNINESS OF COMMENTS, I’LL… I’LL… well, I’ll probably keep laughing. Nice one, seriously!

    Deserves a prize!

  • BLACK213

  • Voodoo Trucker

    Thats dedication right there or like…. autism.

  • metalAC13

    @Conor: The best caption has to be from TedTedPoleyPoley… “Yngwie J McLovin for sure”

    Or at least I think so.

  • Malacoda

    Not great, not bad. But not fake, except for the part where he pretends to play left handed. His shirt is backwards.

  • myke

    holy shit i didnt know that corky from life goes on can shred like a motherfucker!!!

  • Wormdrive

    “Yngwie J McLovin”

    Your killin me.

  • banter

    I approve!

    is it just me or does this kid look like Devin Townsend? how old are his kids again?

  • iwrestledaferretonce

    Some of the world’s best guitarists suffer from tourette’s……..

    Hey, Nice to have fans =)

    Btw, this video was done purely for testing the audio syncing of youtube. You can tell when about half way through, it all delays everything I play by about half a second.

    Anyway, I only found this page just recently so thanks for choosing me….I guess.

    P.S I am McLovin ^__^

    P.P.S The winking was unintentional. Must’ve been watching too many Steve Vai Live shows at the time of recording….

    …..Maybe next time, I’ll wear shades?
