Herman's video from the stream: • Has The Dooo Finally M...
Thank you again Herman for inviting me to take part in this! More about the fundraiser:
Throughout March and April, some of the world’s greatest guitarists will come together to raise money and celebrate the music of legendary guitarist and composer Jason Becker, who has been living with ALS for over 30 years and continues to compose and record music. The virtual event, hosted in part by DragonForce guitarist Herman Li, will include three components:
1) A Livestream telethon-style fundraiser on Twitch: Special guests will appear on Herman Li’s Twitch channel, to play, jam, and participate in fan-generated challenges with all money raised going directly to Jason’s medical trust.
2) Artists will donate signed guitars, merch, and other rare items which will be sold via a special Reverb shop to benefit Jason. Details TBA.
3) Three of Jason’s most important guitars will be auctioned off later this year, including the guitars seen on the covers of ‘Perpetual Burn’ and ‘Speed Metal Symphony’, and the original ‘Numbers’ guitar played by Eddie Van Halen. Details TBA.
Some of the musicians participating include: Marty Friedman, Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, Steve Lukather, Mark Tremonti, John Petrucci, Kiko Loureiro and sooo many more.

OMG!!! This is the best video EVER!!! Seriously, thank you so much to The Dooo for helping us in this Jason Becker Fundraiser. Huge heart and enormous talent! Also massive Thank You to everyone who donated for this great cause. See ya! - Herman Li
The legend himself!
Hi Herman!
And the rest of D-Force if they see this!
I hope you guys can come to Boston when covid BS stops, and concerts can happen again!
through the fire and flames
why does everyone have a lot more likes than me
Goddamnn I wish I was born a generation back so I could have grown up with these guitar legends making music and being younger instead of only just finding out about EVH last year because of a tribute to him by Music Is Win
The leyend :o
The way Herman Li has a fan blowing in his face, making it seem like it's Dooo's raw sound blowing him away is absolutely hilarious.
Exactly 😂😂😂
Looked like shaolin soccer
I was searching for this comment lmao
Lmfao accurate
I know I was thinking the same thing haha! It was a lot, even for Li. Looked majestic af lol
It isn't a fan doing it, it's just his pure shreddage and finger speed distorting the air around his body causing his hair to blow
I know lol
This man will go down in history as one of the greatest guitarists without even anybody knowing what he looks like.
ok the doo is insane I'm not doubting that and ill never ever be anywhere near as good as him but one of the best in history is a massive stretch
@@tommygun9054 he said one of, not THE greatest. Who’s to say that list can only be 10 people long? TheDooo is insane and defo one of the best. And yes there’s lots of legends too, personally I’d count TheDooo as one
@@R__A even one of is still a massive stretch yes he is very good pne of the best in history not even close
@@tommygun9054 What does Steve Vai do TheDooo doesn't do ?
Buckethead is another amazing artist that doesn’t show his face
2:23 you can see Dooo riffing so hard that Herman's hair is being blown away lol
I was going to talk about that but I wanted to see if anyone already did
🤣
XDD
ssj3
Bro was blown away
There's no fan in Herman Li's studio, his hair just naturally does that.
I’d believe it
🤣
It's the guitars' magic
its god moving his hair so he can see the fret board
☆Magical☆
The longer The Doo is a virgin, the more powerful his guitar abilities become, soon he will be the most powerful guitarist in the world
*a small price to pay for salvation*
The Doo needs to do a live action guitar challenge against someone
And when the world needed him most, he lost it
A true chad
Are you saying he's not a guitar wizard yet?
7:50 that's the moment Herman knew he finally met his match... haha but in all seriousness this is my favorite part of this whole video. You can just tell Herman is genuinely just in awe. Both amazing guitarst🤙
He legit went god mode
Na, that was 14:30
You know they were just talking about the stupid faces right before..?
The Doo's Riff is so sick, fav part of the video with the tapping bit a close second when Herman goes, oh damn !
Well Herman MADE this part and Doo is playing it. Not really a comparison.
Can’t believe I just watched a 20 minute video of 2 guys just shredding the hell out of a guitar
Can't believe it was only 20 minutes
@@strcs_ cant believe they were sitting down
Shredding? Herman was making love to his guitar the whole time.
First time buddy?
alternating between dressing as women and having bags over their heads like it’s Guantanamo Bay
Rumor has it Herman doesn’t even have a fan in his room. It’s just the power of shredding.
lol
If you are playing on a Jem it is mandatory that a fan has to be blowing your hair. Ask Steve Vai.
I needed that laugh, thank you 😂
Yea 🙌🏽 Shredding: the new form of renewable energy. It’ll blow you away!
@@joehiden7134 ah damn its fucking hot in here, *proceed to grab guitar and create powerful wind energy from shreddin* ahhhh.....
Plot twist: Herman doesn't even own a fan, his fingers are blowing his hair back.
The power of bass
THE SPEED OF LIGHT
lol that fan is powered by the level of rock epicness
Lmao well played Normous... well played indeed 😂
4:29 did my guy just seriously play the default dance mid solo 😂
Lmao u r not the Only one noticed that dude
Jesus never really realized how good the doo is until now. Watched a lot of his videos but he went SS rank here.
He went WHAT rank?
@@Bruh-pk6ei you heard him 😐
Yeah I think he is at least on the level of all the top notch guitarists if not more!
ah yes, the "Schutzstaffel" rank
@@un_kn0wn427 what concentration camp did he work at
The colab we didn’t ask for but what we needed
MOAR Electronauts
I saw this in my recommended and thought it was left over April fools
we asked
I asked for it.
it's the collab we don't deserve
First date: "So what do you do?"
TheDooo: "I'm a professional shredder, give me your documents."
That's great.
NDA first before dates
My boy Dooo at 14:35 just absolutely slays it
And Herman is just a true artist with guitar gahdam 😭🤘🏻
do we know the song ?
I really do love how Herman Li just puts himself out there on the internet and really grabs some fun content
This video just showed us how much The Dooo has been holding back in his previous videos.
For real, that was beyond insane!
his skill gets wasted on dumb af siege vids lul
@@justsomechairwithoutamusta8275 do you laugh at those videos
THIS ISN'T EVEN HIS FINAL FORM!!!
@@shablaze4618 ofc they're hilarious but they have mentioned it themselves in one of their vids before
at least im fairly certain it was r6
also you cant say it isn't dumb comon "sandwich meat"
You can really tell that TheDooo has been holding back in his own videos. Dude was trying to melt the microphone this entire video.
Oh yeah
this is the TheDooo full power
I think it’s the people he finds on Omegle that have little to no music knowledge so they just choose popular songs, and not necessarily challenging ones 😂
just the idea ive never actually watched the dooo
Completely agree
5 Months Later: I'd like to draw everyone's attention to 7:55 when Herman's brain melts at TheDooo
That was hilarious. Herman's mind exploded and then melted.
Someone should put that in the
Bet you can't play this.
whats the name of the first instrumental?
This is just freaking unreal. Totally mind blowing at the talent these guys possess is just crazy. I hope this helped Jason & wish him the best.
You know you've made it when you get to play with Herman Li and he's impressed
I think its the second time he's played with Herman Li
And for jason becker that guy was a genius 20 century bach
You know you've made it when you've raised thousands of dollars for Jason Becker
Gotta respect the grind.
"Oh damn" I loved that part
The Dooos expression throughout this video was priceless
True
His phrasing is out of this world.
His lips are basically fused with that neck by now.
Huh?
Yea you got me whatever.
Not gonna lie but it’s been a year and I still come back to this video just cause how nice the shredding and riffs are I just wish these were songs that I can listen to on Spotify while playing games or something
Dooo …bro every bit of 7:05 - 9:30 had me stank facing, bobbing my head, and getting the chills the whole damn time. Sooooo good
Yeah! Best part of the vid tbh
yessir, I can totally believe ive come back to watch this video again.
I cant imagine what you must have felt by playing with him, actually insane
also you know he is a big deal when he has more gitars in his room than I have seen in my entire life
House looking like a guitar center lol
Yeah... I have like only three guitars, and 2/3 of them are electric. Meth
@@felix7979 I have one and it's classical 😂
@@ShaneChandler87 so if he moves one day he will have to pack up all those guitars lol
playing with him is one thing, OBLITERATING him is another
The Doooo and herman missed exactly 8 notes in 9 minutes video with a paper bag on their head.
Me: got exactly 8 notes right after learning the song for about 5 years later with my eyes wide open.
With eyes wide oppuuuuuuhhhhhhnnnnnn
What might pay to help is practising the techniques in that song individually. For example if it's a lot of alternate picking, practising just alt picking. Same if it's sweeps etc.
Practising the technique will make it easier to play the song as then you're only focusing on the song notes rather than the song notes and the technique that it's using at the time
I like how you said with a paper bag in their head not on their head it’s in it
@@bruhman2249 good catch. that is something no practice/technique can emulate. i don't think anyone else could have played anything with a paper bag in their heads aside from Herman and The Doo.
what is the song?
7:49 smoothest riff I've ever heard in my life
I know this video is a year old. These guys are incredible. If I had 1/100th of the skill of these two I'd be happy. They truly are among the best guitarists around today.
Imagine not only having the clout to play with Herman Li, but having the balls to sneak some default dance into it... legendary
Wish he could play deadwood
4:26
Clout sounds like a disease. "My grandma had clout.....she didn't make it."
Lol the words people say nowadays is wild.
@@meowforjasper2838 clout isn’t a new word
@@BigPersonaInWonderland It's not, never said it was. But at least back in the day people knew it was a stupid word and didn't say it like their life depended on it lmao.
Imagine being able to play with a legend like this. Herman must be so honored.
Lol
Pffffft
They got us in the first half, not gonna lie.
😂
@@skippinlivin6887 i was gonna say that lmao
7:49
The shredding, Herman’s reaction
Orgasmic
I don't want to die without having seen TheDooo's face
7:55 if herman drops his jaw, you know you're godlike
He was trying to calculate how that even worked in his head. Jk jk but yes he was definitely impressed
4:25 You just had to sneak the default dance in there didn't you lmfao
LOL
Lmao
I didn’t even fucking realize 🤣
I was hoping I wasn’t the only one that realized that lmao
@@erci482 fr lmfaoooo
7:48 hits differently. Damn, he is so good!
You know star mode is engaged when Herman turns on the fan and his hair starts flowing.
We need a video where dooo walks into a guitar center with a paper bag on his head and asks for some guitar lessons while shreding on the employees.
Yes yes yes
Dooo, get on this
Up
Just killing Ascend over there like nobody's business xD
Someone Gonna recognize his voice and try to take it of
I just realized Dooo probably hides his face because he gets crazier than Herman does.
Bro.......... that's crazy to think bout is his face like the constipated troll face
@@justaj7788 XD lol
Just constant ahegao
@@icyphoenix2401 OH GOD lol
@@icyphoenix2401 🤣🤣🤣
2:30 I LOVE THE WAY IT LOOKS LIKE THE DOO SLAYING SO HARD HERMANS HAIR GETS BLOWN BACK.
I keep coming back to this video. The pickup from 7:49 is totally alienware
God Herman le has went from performing on stage to preform thousands of people to dressing as woman and shredding it on a live stream. Respect
The internet is a beautiful place.
Yes ur right
No one talking bout herman li's hair moving like it was feeling the power of TheDooo solos
You don’t know he can control the wind? Through sheer force of shredding he channels the electrons in the air to make his hair blow in a breeze at will
True
LMFAO 🤣
The FORCE IS STRONG WITH THIS ONE
@@ShockingPikachu dude.. come on. We all know this.
I keep coming back to watch this over and over again. The two of you need to do more together you mesh so well when you play.....I mean damn it brings tears to my eyes every time....just beautiful stuff guys .....simply beautiful
This is some of the most highly entertaining content on youtube. The ridiculously awesome shredding, then some chill talking in between. The format is great!
TheDooo uploaded two days in a row?? That’s the best April fools joke I’ve ever heard
Yuh man I fuck wit it
4:26 Man really just default danced with his guitar 🤣
whats the name of the first instrumental?
7:50, i literally gasped. Herman knew this guy is big stuff bro.
The Dooo needed a moment to just shred in front of people, I feel like he doesn't get as many chances we think he does
Sun Jin Woo goes like
Dooo always has to play pop stuff etc for normies lpl
I would love to see more long form solos for sure from dooo. I think he gets a lot of chances but broken up a lot into short segments so we don’t get the full dooo experience.
@@lgilles yes! I agree
The longest solo rift/song he can accomplish ... yeah I can see it as it's own video and I'm down for it
2 UPLOADS IN 1 WEEK? WHAT DID WE DO?
*DOOOO
MOAR Electronauts
YESSSIRRRR
WE BROKE THE SYSTEM !
In one day
2:13 that move with the arm is so cool!
13:35 This solo is just beautiful!
Herman making faces for the Doo while he shreds is the funniest thing.
He feels it man
He's trying to follow progression while intentively finding where and when to transfer soloing. Watch herman's hand traverse the on the frets and notice he is following Doooo's notes in order to smoothly transition. 7:30 is the best example of this.
@@ericsady3638 Thank you for the info. I still find it funny though, as it seems like Herman is compensating for The Dooo's lack of a face/head.
The dooo : “I’m a guitarist for fun”
Like one punch man
@@aliviacolbert5462 seriously. I was thinking the same thing. 😂
XD
LOL Sweet effing Christ man…”just for fun” why!?!?
@@ruthless5280 look up ‘one punch man’
I could hear these two rip for hours on end. So much talent and passion, much love to you both. Great video! :)
You're almost at 6 MILLION subscribers!! Congrats! Now you can aim at 10 Million subscribers!
I know you'll get there sooner than later! A huge thank you to those wonderful guitarists and people who donated to this
deserving cause! Best wishes from Canada.
2:16 the doo’s finger movements was so fast it casted wind into Herman’s hair through the computer screen. truly a sight to behold.
Cast*
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA 🤣
😂😂🤣🤣🤣
This too good
😅
herman jamming to thedooo:*casually slips in the default dance*
The best part is no one noticed in the chat
@@cameronforster8574 There was one guy at 5:50 that had it just click for them lul
This was so beautiful to watch. Two men playing music for a cause. Beautiful. Just amazing and mind-blowing! You both are so talented! Thank you for sharing your talent with us! I love you!
Dooo's guitar sound is epic. So bright and clean.
whats the name of the first instrumental?
As someone who had a close family member die of ALS, this fundraiser is incredibly uplifting. My family donates 10k a year to ALS, this genuinely means the world to me.
I just donated.keep ur head up mate sorry for your fam member
My whole family barely makes 10k a year and you donate that money?!?!
I am so sorry for your loss, I can't personally relate. But I hope this video (and anything else that might be going on) is a little bit of closure (or maybe relief) for your family.
@@Pulko172 some people are even capable of giving away 100k, 1 million, even 10s of millions away. Money is a lot of things, but it's definitely not everything. Don't worry mate.
whats the name of the first instrumental?
I’m starting a (metaphorical) petition to get Doo to drop a full version of “Mary had a little stroke” from last video. We all know that was actually killer
I'd like to see that
Yesssss
@Shade Wolf yes
Mary had a little thunderstruck
Could never imagine in a million years... when you start playing to now... that you'd be playing on a internet stream with Herman Li of Dragonforce. Blows my mind just in that regard. What a blast and opportunity.
That transition at 9:18 was true ear candy. Dayum!
Herman: let me hear your voice, I'll try to imitate
Doo: *demonstrates uwu voice*
Herman: oh fuck
I was honestly shocked I knew he can do a good woman voice from his last video but God Damm his uwu voice is amazing lol
Time stamp?
😂😂😂😂😂😂 i died when i saw that😂😂
@@hassaanazeem4602 16:55
Got an ad right before the UwU voice
You realize that dooo is cracked, when he's making one of the most known guitarists of today, make nasty faces because he's shredding so damn well
Built Diff
He is “cracked” at guitar😂
how did I miss this colab, you're both nuts this is amazing playing
I love that Herman's hair just naturally blows in the wind while he's in a solo.
Omegle: "OMG You're so talented!"
The Dooo: "This isn't even my final form."
Lmooo
what you see in front of you are merely 50% of my power
To think he went from CoD-trolling to this in like three years is so awesome. Eric's like a main character of some musical anime.
Naw, he could do this back then too. He's been playing for what, like 16 years. He just hasn't really shown it.
@@BusinessWolf1 I think he just means this situation, playing with someone like Herman Li
Aikamoista
@@BayousBobby On. Vitu päällikkö jätkä.
@@ollilehtonen6764 Kyllä!
When i first entered my new school, i noticed they had electric guitars and that made me think of this video and i learnt the first riff of TTFAF up to about a minute and a half of the actual song and i played it at our schools celebration assembly amd i cant thank you guys enough...
I replayed 7:50 like 50 times already. The dooo is a beast.
yeah that was the Best riff tbh 🔥
whats the name of the first instrumental?
The whole thing after 7:50 is just freaking crazy!
Herman’s faces when Dooo is shredding show how much he’s amazed by Doo’s skills
Herman gives credit where it's due. He's a pretty damn good guy
And the Doos facial expressions when Herman Li would start shredding shows how much Herman Li is an inspiration to him
Faces? how many does he have?
Game recognizes Game...
That's called mutual respect and admiration.
That Stank Face
So we all ignoring how he just casually threw in the default dance song at 4:27
Didn't even notice that until you pointed it out lol
Damn.........🥵🥵
I was scrolling through the comments for like 5 minutes trying to find a comment about it
Hahaha wtf, it sounded familiar, then I found this comment, nice
EXACTLY LMAOOOO
This is awesome, never knew he was struggling with ALS, but glad you guys did this for him.
This is one of those videos where I wish I could see Doos face when soloing. Damn good stuff!
2:12 The Dooo starts playing so good that Herman's hair begins blowing in the wind indoors
Hahahahahah
Pretty cheesy for surel
whats the name of the first instrumental?
Herman Li: "Can we get a 'm m m Grizzy'? What's that?"
Dooo: (sweats nervously)
This is one of the best videos on the internet ever!!! Loved it and God bless everyone who gave ad continues to give to those in need! Much love to all!!
7:50 Destruction mode. FUCKING BEAUTIFUL 😍
most replayed of the whole video
whats the name of the first instrumental?
Them both messing up with the bags on their heads made me think they are humans after all.
Just think abt Buckethead...the way he plays soothslayer with a bag up his head all the time....Insane guitar players all across the world
@@maddyx3711 i have the theory, that Dooo is actually Buckethead's son. Just think about it for a minute
@@zubat-man3019 everyone has a buckethead theory on thedooo. He does play his Buckethead very well, but I just think he's a guy around my age (I'm 34 before you ask) that picked up and had the mentality that I did when hitting the strings of being in the race, or at least the argument, for greatest guitarist ever. He's just progressed so much faster than I have lol. And I say my age because we has EVH, Vai, Buckethead, but he's not a straight up djenter like your Tosin, Tim or Manuel Gardner-Fernandes (which I wanna see you play @TheDooo some Unprocessed), also nice TH-cam handle
@@marshallgoode pretty sure the doo is 26 or 27 :)
@@0x2A_ yea. It's still closer than mid 50s, no offense. I'm just saying he's in the same domain of musical influence as I have been. So I can offer my personal opinion and no I'm nowhere close to their skill level, but I can play. 15 years and I better be able to 😂
The amount of talent in this video is unbelievable
Dude, this is beyond talent...this is years of dedication
Skill*
hard work*
i dont thinks so , the dooo Better
its just gushing out
I love how much Herman just loves music and he's always grinning ear to ear when he plays or when other people play
Herman Ali’s voicings, scale selections, and tempos are just unbelievably nice. And the Doo shreds face.
whats the name of the first instrumental?
When The Doo finally gets a girlfriend, she’s gonna see the outfit he uses for pretending to be girl and ask to borrow it
not happening
It's gonna make him have a lot more outfits XD
not sure if there are girls into headless guy

"I dont think I like women anymore" -McNasty some videos ago
I think this applies right about now
Indeed.
Agreed.
I'm glad I'm not the only one questioning myself
I mean, I didn't think I was gay as I've got 2 kids but alas here we are.
If Dooo played in a famous band he would probably be considered one of the best guitarists of today
Absolutely but his style of playing for the sake of playing, not for fame.... I can get behind a guy like that. 👍
@@kalani245 yeah.. but his skill is over impressive. In my opinion if you dont have some kind of talent to play like that you will never be able to do so no matter how many years you've been playing for
I'll bet he's an actual studio artist. We've probably heard him on a few tracks over the years. That would also make sense why he doesn't show his face. Those studios and record labels have some crazy contracts where they wont let dudes they have on contract make money performing anywhere else. This is also the reason why the band "Here Comes The Mummies" was started.
@@operator0 good point
How do you know he doesn't?!?!?
Thnx for the GREAT EMOTIONS and my good mood EVEN in 2022 one year ago)) Thanx both of you!!
2:16 I love the fact that when TheDooo is shredding, Herman Li's Hair and shirt started blowing
I love how TheDoo never shows his face and people just accept it, like they joke, but I don’t think they harass him constantly to show his face. Honestly I think he has a great community and seems great.
True man
Well if you watch his friends channel you will understand why
@@commentlurker3874 what do you mean?
thedooo is a guitarist of dragonforce, for sure!
@@yannouille2978 nice plot twist dude 😂
This Herman Li guy is really good. He should play in a band sometime
Hahahahaha
Wait,that was a joke right?
@@labangeneraux5608 the oldest joke on TH-cam
i think he would really fit in in metallica or even better dragonforce
I think dragon force would be a good band for him he should join it
Idk about dragonforce, he seems better than that. I mean its not like he helped make through fire and flames
I love how at 14:42 Herman Li realises the Doo wasn't messing around!
Epic. Just absolutely epic! Thanks to you both!
The Dooo finally flexed on us for real. He never really goes full send in his Omegle videos, and I could tell he was throwing everything he had at those solos. Bravo.
Honestly it probably wasnt even everything he has. Dudes just a beast with no face

@@Cpt_Katsuragi it's not Joe mama it's the other word for black but TH-cam won't let me post the word
You know you're a guitarist when a sick riff just get's you riled up and makes your fingers want to dance.
He was definitely making the holy fuck faces lmao. Reminded me of the stank faces people get from heavy ass breakdowns
I can watch guitarists shredding guitars all day!!! THIS IS INCREDIBLE!!!
Watched in 2023 and couldn't be more impressed. There is not a single missed note. You both are legends guys
To understand how amazing Jason is as a guitarist is to listen to them say that he could shred at levels they could never achieve and then you watch the video and you see their shredding makes you want to quit guitar. You are all legends!
He was also so young it is mind-blowing
he was 16-17 when he wrote most of the songs you can find on youtube
