  • I shot ten hours of performances by School of Rock Show Teams. They were separated by various rounds of of the Shred Contest - here are the semi-finals. I was not able to shoot the final contest which occurred at Summerfest. This is the third of three parts.
    Part 1: • School of Rock Shred C...
    Part 2: • School of Rock Shred C...
    Part 3 - Semifinals: This video
    I did not shoot the actual Finals as that occurred at Milwaukee's Summerfest as I did not have a photo/video pass.

    Apparently this contest was posted somewhere and has become popular. Three parts are on TH-cam. This first round: th-cam.com/video/p0y88Qs0XxU/w-d-xo.html
    Here is the second round: th-cam.com/video/_stDNxIGj6U/w-d-xo.html
    ...and the Semifinals: th-cam.com/video/Ns8Kc-uTuns/w-d-xo.html
    I did not shoot the actual Finals as that occurred at Milwaukee's Summerfest and I did not have a photo/video pass. Sorry. The winner was Lucas from Seattle (the kid with the purple hair.)

    If they hade more gain and some reverb it would sound a lot better

    Fun to watch. Everyone has to start somewhere, but everyone should take note of the kid with purple hair. He played fast (who cares) but he played the notes CLEAN. All of the contestants should know how fast they can play while playing the notes cleanly. I was impressed with the purple hair kid because he played the notes cleanly. A side note, I got a laugh and smile out of the contestants that "jerk their jaw" and "play along with mouth movements."

    Takes me back to when I was 16. The one thing that sucked was the anemic dried up tone these kids were provided. An OD pedal and a delay pedal should have been on. When you play with crap tone you sound is going to Peter out. Great job kids. Keep shredding.

    Even the worst among them were still quite good for the environment they had to "compete" in.
    Keep it up guys and girls, you're all young and on your way👍

      I wish I had been able to shoot the finals, but that was at _Summerfest,_ and there was no way I could have gotten a photo/video pass. Lucas with the purple hair from Seattle was the ultimate winner. Lauren Conner from Chicago had been the winner the year before.

    Just to follow up, the winner was Lucas from Seattle with the purple hair.

      Not sure if trolling, or genuinely doesn't understand how equipment failures are a thing.

      Jarrik73 I don’t know if you would call it an “equipment failure” when it’s was just the batteries in his pick-ups that were dead, seems more of a “player failure”

      Christopher Michael Hubbard from a seasoned player, you’re absolutely right about that. Everything should be spot on beforehand

    Is there some kind of limit on how much post/pre gain is allotted on the amp? Or, are they using lousy guitar adjustments?

    • @MidWestConcertVideo2
      @MidWestConcertVideo2  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It's a shred contest. Each kid gets up there and shreds for a minute, and nobody gets any time to fiddle around with amp settings.

    • @mds6387
      @mds6387 5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      @@MidWestConcertVideo2, Um, I would adjust the basic settings in 5-10 seconds. Wouldn't even bother with bass, treble, mid, or reverb. Just pre and post gain should be enough out of a Marshal Amp to do any kind of shred.

      @Guitargreat I do enjoy life and guitar very much. I really don't care what people think or say about me. Offering insight is not being a "know it all."

    Sad how some kids couldn’t access that classic Marshall tone and just stayed in clean channel with no boost whatsoever 😢

    Painting your fingernails and wearing fingerless mittens always make you shred better.

    To be honest, these kids or guys were pretty nervous so 30 seconds is plenty. They were all great 👍
