My PVC Instrument, High School Performance | Snubby J

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 9 พ.ค. 2024
- I was hired to do a performance in the choir room of my old high school (Lakeridge High School) and wanted to share the final product with you guys! Even though the turnout of people was rather small, I had a fun time performing there again. My friend Micah helped videotape as well, so it's a multi-angle video with high quality audio.

imagine hiring him to fix your plumbing and he walks in and starts playing Mozart on your kitchen sink
NickDraws lol
lol
NickDraws 😂😂😂
I'd pay him more xD
NickDraws that would be cool👍👌
This guy deserves better audience!
Ikr they were all just sitting there :(
I love how happy he looks when he plays
Just about as happy as he makes me feel
i'm mildly disturbed by how happy he looks. He's up to something devious.
Because he did not start his regular job yet ;D
Not only did he build it, but he took the time to learn several songs and create a medley this man is a hero
Impressive but really just a large piano so probably not too much to learn.
@@anthonyd.8067 that's true, but there is different muscle memory and a different way of playing that requires a different type of precision. In any case I believe it to be impressive
Most impressive is that it's all in tune
@Steven Goodnight that's right
@Steven Goodnight “that’s” is the contraction of “that” and “is”.
He deserves way more of an applause than that.
+Arkham-Knight Lol
SkyKrypto_ throwing coins at him?
LOL
Arkham-Knight xddxd
I think the 7,3 million views will suffice
an example of a very intelligent student
900,000,000,000 veiws you mean creative! You don't have to be smart to invent your own instrument you only need to have imagination and creativity
Ρωμανός Tokyo ghoul true
yeah. but you also have to tune the instrument, which in this case means getting an exact length to the pipes. you gotta engineer that thing to play perfectly
It's not a new instrument by any stretch of the imagination, it's cool he made it and is using it to perform but there's no doubt he took the design from someone else.
Andrew KVK i do not know something about that so i can neither agree nor disagree with you
"what kind of instrument do you play?"
"I play the pipes"
"Bag pipes?"
"No, PVC pipes"
nakllvndslakfnklsdafmlbafjk haha well I play bagpipes 🤣
I play a PVC didgeridoo.
"oh thank God"
It's a joke bagpipes are ok if played well
More accurate
"What instrument do you play"
Oh, me? The RimbaTubes"
"The what?"
"Look it up"
"You mean a bunch of PVC pipes in a tabel?"
"I guess"
@@edgarwalk5637 Fun Fact: I know for a fact (because I witnessed it) that a piece of PVC pipe can make for a very good didgeridoo.
You can definitely tell he loves what he's doing, just look at that smile! He's so happy it's contagious!
If you've got flies in your house, hire this guy
lmao
Aquatic Angler lmao im dying
Hell, he'll make music out of it as well!
If you have blocked pipes call him
If you have carol singers out side hire this guy scare them off lol
I gotta be honest, this is the best instrument I've seen
I'm Sorry for your lost
Was that a fucking pun?
I'm Sorry hatersgonnahate
See what I did there
I'm Sorry dafuq
I'm Sorry Your name xD
He’s got a good stage presence. It’s more than just going up there and playing, he smiles and makes faces and dances a little and looks like he genuinely enjoys what he’s doing, and that makes me enjoy it more as well. It’s frickin awesome
The amount of velocity he plays the notes with gives them different harmonics! Genius!
I smell winning material for America's Got Talent.
There's a lot of comments like this, however, this is the first grammatically correct one. 👍 for you
Me: I heard u play an instrument what do u play
Him: I smack tubs
SOLO Tree *pvc pipes... GET IT RIGHT
LMAO 😂😂😂
Lel
he actually fans them, i think
SOLO Tree tubes?
imagine how strong your arms would be after a few years of doing this. GOOD GOD!
i used to play percussion and thw heights hes rising the paddles up to is about 12 inch strokes and at the speed hes playing i can confirm its a real workout and for me after 3 years of percussion i dont think id last 5 minutes like that without my arms cramping

Then you hear this instead xD
+Alistral

+AskTheQ he did in another video
who else came here after watching the "guy makes his own instrument and plays music"
NickkCruz me
NickkCruz me too
NickkCruz yep 😂
NickkCruz yup
NickkCruz me
Who else is imagining him playing wack a mole 😂
Ballistic Dog904 no one except you
LMAOOOO
how do you know
I wasn't but I am now!
Whack a mole more like splatter a mole
He would have the highest score on 'whack a mole'
Commander StarKai lel

:)
Love how he scans the crowd smiling. Probably picking out the girl to go home with.
You cant say you wouldnt too =)
Never said I wouldn't
FAC
Or the boy.
^ Always that one person that's gotta be like "he might be gay don't make assumptions" xD
FAC 69 likes lol. I'm so mature!
This guy is probably amazing at Wack-A-Mole!
hahahah
+onZampie: He'd probably break the machine too.
+i dont know maybe
He looks so happy I love it😄
Lady: Oh you're kind of cute
(This) guy: Thx
Lady: Do u have some hobbies?
(This) guy: Yep. Wanna hear?
Lady: Of course
(This) guy: I'll actually give you a hint. It is an instrument.
Lady: Guitar? Drums? Saxophone?
(This) guy: Ehhh... I play PVC-pipes
Lady: *walks away*
(This) guy: Why does this happen to me everytime?!
No except when he says pvc pipes she just squirts everywhere
Aarni Kaivola XD
Aarni Kaivola nice😂
the lady should be impressed actually
because playing with pvc pipes are kinda hard and its actually creative!
a guy that made an instrument out of pvc pipes!
has anyone ever thought of that before??
Weikai 46 i think glass cups are different than pvc pipes >->
But hey i like the tune of glass cups .w.
This mode of delivery is becoming all the rage! Have you any familiarity with the fellow who plays the Tubulum? I'll venture you're all part of a clique of sorts. Bravo! ThomasVictory51
+Thomas Victory Yeah! Are you referring to thejerrymobile? He's great! We teamed up for a percussion cover of The Final Countdown a few years back.
+Snubby J remember that, big fan!
Brodie Mills-Kearns BRODIE! It's Ella. Funny seeing you here, oh my god.
Haha the part when u transitioned between the Jaws theme and Fur Elise XD
+MARIOBRO Well, You're a bit of a deaf ain't you?.
***** When Fur Elise started he did a little bit of Jaws theme and transitioned it to Fur Elise..
***** You don't get it?, Re-watch the video..
***** If you see how he looks behind as if being stalked by something (most likely a shark) since the first few notes of his version of fur elise has low notes and same rhythm.. If you listen to jaws theme then re-watch the video, You should understand what i'm trying to say.
Dude, you got talent. This needs to be a mass produced instrument now. I want one.
This was very well done! You're a creative and musical genius! And I loved how your joy was so apparent! Just seeing you smile and having so much fun, made me smile a whole lot more!
You should go on Americas got talent!!!!
The Pipe Guy is the OG
why do that when you can be a blue man?
fuck yeah i saw them play in Vegas not that long ago
Ramseas119 he try'ed 3 times but got denied
You are pretty awesome Snubby J, not gonna lie. I love your humor in this and music choice.
I have to ask- Can this be a healthy anger/stress relief? lol.
+Shelby O'Gara Thank you! And yes, absolutely a stress reliever. It's art & exercise all in one.
Awesome! I'll have to make one of these and give it a try~ And you're very welcome!
bro your just fucking beast teach me how to do it really fast
OMFG DUDESONS YES AT THE END also you played everysingle song I know :D
The last one he played was edvard grieg - dovregubbens hall (hall of the mountain king)
also if you dont know more songs than he played you should go out and listen to some more :P
He is smiling every song this is magical
too pure for this world 🙏🏻
THE CROWD WAS SO UNGRATEFUL
Perfectly Prejudice ikr
"are you not entertained?"
Maybe they were trying to listen to the music.
No. They were being polite, and not screaming over him
Actually they were, and probably respectful too. This isn't a fucking concert -_-
GO ON AMERICA GOT TALENT!!! JUST DO IT!!!
William Mathews don't let you're dreams be dreams (yes a litle late)
Dude, Iove your expressions and enthusiasm when playing! It's easy to tell you're having a blast performing.
Absolutely incredible! Thank you for sharing!
This was posted 2013 and just now it was recommended for me!?!?!?!?
Tanner Wells boi u stole that from the last vid in 2010 u aint slick
Dude talk like a human being please I don't speak stupid and you wanna bet I ain't slick!
Riot Gameplay just stop replying JEESE the freak with you you shut up ya ok I am muting you jerk don't be rude
Tanner Wells same here
Tanner Wells I don't even see the comment any more what shit did he say? I'll mute him if it's that bad.
who needs the original songs when you have this? :D
Zaira Larsen I still want original songs
Yurio pfp ;3
Well, you could argue the guy in the video needed the originals to be able to cover them? :D
Perfect performance! Left a smile on my face really...
The Entertainer (0:01) -Turkish March (0:30) -Chopsticks (0:57) -Symphony No. 5 (1:27) -Jingle Bells (1:45) -Für Elise (2:00) -Can Can (2:33) -Canon in D (3:28) -In The Hall of the Mountain King (4:00)
OMG i love the classical and other bits in here, Offenbach, Beethoven, Pachelbel's canon, surprised by, and extremely impressed by the brief selections of grieg.
E D G Y
Your commentary made me laugh really xDDDD
GorumGamer lol i cant even play any of these on piano
and heres a guy doing it with a set of pipes and two spatulas
Same here
I did almost all of them on my DJ pad and other devices.Didnt work out well
I was actually shock I know every song in this video. Amazing video ever!
I died when u played Canon.
Dude I finally found your channel! Because there are vids out there from you on other channels but you are AWESOME! And damn smart man not to mention talented keep this going it really really rules!
One single word: "EPIC!!"
nice Beethoven bro, I enjoyed it a lot!😃
You did good, sir. You did good.
Now you are ready for the bald head and the blue paint.
thoroughly enjoyed watching that!! great talent!
This is most skillful. You gain 50 points.
Nacho Minirazor 50 points to SnubbyJ
Nacho Minirazor fifty points to griffindor!
Nacho Minirazor WHAT IT WAS THAT GRUBBY MUDBLOOD HERMONIE THAT TAGHT THAT WEASLY TO DO THAT (Malfoy)
I can't believe he made this instrument him self wow!!!
Its not that complex. All about making sure each tube is the right length, but other than that working with PVC pipe is easy. And who says he did it "himself"? He may have had help, videos from people who knew how to make them, etc.
justforever96 let someone respect it in peace bro, dang. It's not just length it's also diameter (not an issue here), material (I guess it wasn't hard to come by or expensive but still) as well as bends and curves, but also have to keep track of spacial issues
its not the instrument that made him do that its his talent that did all the work
Someone's salty that they can't do shit and will probs die forgotten 👴🏼
Absolutely brilliant!Incredible!
This dude is amazing! Well done man, well done!
This dude is a legend. Showing vid to all my friends 😱
all he did is copy Pipeguy....go look for that
dumbass, pipeguy was after this.
That he became popular yea...oh well. you know best
IS THERE ANYWAY FOR THIS PVC INSTRUMENT TO BECOME OFFICIAL? I can't wait to see that day when the world has PVC bands, orchestras, albums and whatsoever!!!
Me too, man. Me too.
Doesnt the blue men due stuff like this?
This instrument is very similar to a slapophone
freaking awesome ! great talent !! keep it up !!!!
Your work is amazing and you are still doing it today! Congrats
Why are the home-made instruments always the best. XO
I write sins not tragedies would sound so good on this
Sister Daniel So true!
+Sister Daniel I've actually never heard of that song.
Electric Emerald Have you not? It's by Panic! At The Disco, you should listen to it if you get the time. It's one of their oldest yet most well known songs.
Sister Daniel yasssss fellow emo trash
Shut the fuck up
What a talented guy!!! 😁 Amazing what he created and has perfect hearing to be able to play it too!!!!
OMG The Classics and you are so young and bright! I grew up with this music 60s/70s, my dad would be watching this video (if he were still alive) forever! Simply amazing and beautiful!
The sound is somewhere between a steel drum and the strings...
It sounds like........
A pvc pipe
Supersiem14 Really? no way!
I agree with this sentiment. light steel drum with plucked strings. I find it amazing that he has to hit each one of these tubes 'flat-on' the home made flat mallets, and does it with perfect ease!
3:29 Canon in D Major, panda identifying music titles like no other. *swag*
GRAMMAR PlZ.
i put every time i realize a spelling mistake cuz i'm stupid and i don't know how to edit a comment.
not sure if you know but thats a really famous song... ye are no special snowflake
I could listen to this all day! Well done Snubby J
wow!! love it and the enthusiasm!!
3:10 periodic table
anton arnqvist 😂
anton arnqvist it's like your in my science class
anton arnqvist YAAAAS
It's actually the Can Can. ASAP science just made a parody of it.
anton arnqvist I
Only if the pipes were green...
Colorless I love how you made that comment and your name is colorless
Incredible!!!!
That's awesome man. Great job!
Awesome!!! extremely enjoyable. watching you enjoy yourself and the talent you showed. Thank you for sharing.
Now this is a form of exercise I can actually do!
Pure and undeniable genius!
"He must me good at whack a mole"
"How good is he at swatting flies"
When im the only dirty minded person here.. ._.
LXVIV
Good stuff man 🎧
1st of all this is awesome and I like the fact that you look like your having fun :3
Oh man this dude is really really really happy!!! its so much fun!!!
Honestly man, you killed it! Great job!
Had my feet tapping along to the tunes...clever in the combining of them.
Did SnubbyJ design and make this instrument himself? I would exspect that this kind of instrument doesn't come with instructions. Great video!
+HusaBrusa Yup! My dad and I built it. If you google "PVC Instrument instructions" you'll find some tips out there (including a video of my own), but ultimately it comes down to developing your own method as you design and construct your instrument.
+Snubby J I see, thanks for the reply! That's amazing and makes your videos even more impressing.
HusaBrusa this is fircken awesome good jod dude
"What instrument do you play?"
the PVC tube
That was bloody awesome. Nicely done.
I could listen to this for hours
So, you are one of the blue men now right?
matthias19850 Nope, unfortunately not. But check out my video "Blue Man Snubby" to learn why.
+Snubby J i wish you were one cause you are so sosososososos good at it
kk
"hey sound guy and stage hand... We're gonna need to mic that thing...."
"well.... shit. There goes rest of the week."
1:52 love it 😂🤣
You are so talented!!!! INCREDIBLE JOB AND CREATIVITY!!!!
why our primary school dont have this instrument i like that instrument
Pazel _PW Because he made it himself. There is only one.
Well, no, that one is unique. That doesn't mean that only one exists. I guess it's like the difference between a five stringed electric cello and a four stringed acoustic cello, in that while they are different instruments, the belong to king of, the same family of instruments? I dunno.
There s a thing called a marimba that is played similarly you know......
WE NEED ELEMENTARY IN HERE BOIS
Why our high school don't have any musical intrument for use in Ukraine?Huh?No Gym.No Music.No Cinema.No ur own locker.Nothing.
i love how happy you look while performing ^_^
dude. I have endless amounts of respect for you. keep on man!
I love how passionate you are about playing. I also play an instrument and I love it. Beautiful
tough crowd dude, they were so boring
dead audience... hes born as a performer, you can see on his face how much enjoys it to do this😁
He makes me so happy from the music, the instrument, and how expressive he is when he plays!
Beautiful base sound and great performance!
But Does It Djent?
HAHA
I was just about to write this HAHAH
This makes me feel ASMR
This blew me away. Amazing.
I like 3:28 the best of all. I have loved Canon for so long, and you playing that just got you an extra sub :D
Before I looked in the description I was like HOLY SHIT THIS GUY IS IN HIGHSCHOOL?
still no darude sandstorm:(
Rhys Uscroft I'm from the future where that meme is dead
never stopmilk is harambe still remembered in the future?
never stopmilk oh I can answer that I'm from 666666 harambe is still lord and savior. He's become a religious figure in China. He's a very popular religion. Harambeanity
I love how pleased he looks, like it’s a complete joy to play 😁❣️
Man this is my favourite ever classical piece
