9 out of 10 you'll never see this in pop musicians let their fans sing (play instruments if there's any) This is the reason why rock/metal will always be the most wholesome genre of music. Truly a masterpiece!
Love the moment at 3:40 where Dave takes a beer break to watch a concert performance by a guy that paid for a concert that Dave’s supposed to be performing. Fucking Epic, Kiss Guy
Kiss Guy walks around the stage, interacts with band members and knows when to step back compared to other fans who just plain stands up and plays the riffs. Kiss Guy knows what he's doing.
Man I'll Probably regret this and you obviously haven’t watched other concerts where they pull people up some of them actually suck they just don’t have millions of views on youtube like this..
He was in a band when he was younger & has been playing guitar for a long while.. after I saw this I investigated social media lol, I thought oh another plant in the crowd, butttt, he was really at the show with a sign & memorized a few of their songs just for the hopes he would get up & play... he was on the local news and everything...
I'm really not either but they are by far the best live band I've ever seen. It's really strange but I would gladly see a Foo Fighters concert even though I never, ever listen to their music.
@@merlinthegraysome artists are just that good that they're worth seeing live even if the music isn't for you - The Hives are another great bad like that
Dave Grohl is the epitome of humbleness. He has never let the fame change him. I only hope he's doing well with the passing of Taylor. It's hard losing a brother.
@@etothe549 Eh, if you read his book you'd find out they weren't as close as you'd think. Kurt's addiction drove a wedge in a many of things. Plus overhearing Kurt wanting to fire him didn't help matters.
Right, Kiss Guy is the true star in this moment. Imagine the feeling of having all those people there rooting for you and you show up and just shred your @ss off like this lol.
Yayo is a great dude too. My son and him use to play shows all the time. Super great guy from right here in Austin, TX. He use to tell us one day he would play guitar on one song for Dave and he always practiced for that day. He did it.
He sure is an amazing musician already!! I pray he gets that big break he deserves!! Due to this performance, I started following him on Insta. He seems super cool 🤘🤘😎😎❤️❤️
When Keith Moon passed out on stage from a slight horse tranquilizer OD during a concert with The Who, a random kid from the crowd had to play the drums for the entire remainder of the concert :D That has to have a podium placement.
@@joeycreed1887 wrong gig bro. They playing a gig in Czech i believe and guy got up and played Wheels. Shane Hawkins played at the tributes, i was there.
What a moment for a guy that just wanted his shot... he came prepared and nailed it! ...he did forget some of the lyrics... but anyone would be nervous performing with Kiss Guy...
This is like the end of a biopic, where the kid practicing in his bedroom all his teenage life and being hated on finally gets his moment and he shines perfectly. Then he goes back to school and he's a hero
Oh please fuck school! Honestly, life is more than just get validated by people that ignored you, be "the hero"... Fuck that social programming, just be you, always, life goes way beyond the lame school life, with fucking quarterback peaking at 17 just to be a divorced alcoholic loser by 37 and you wanna be validated by him? Lolz 😂
This fall, he's been bullied all his life for not being a pop kid,but now, he fights back * rock music* Toby Mcaguire *rock* is *rock* KiSS guyyyyyyyy *epic guitar solo*
I was hoping I wasn’t the only one to notice this. He’s truly an ultimate professional, the definition of get ready, stay ready. We really never know; stay ready.
That guy is wearing Kiss makeup, wearing a Motorhead shirt, playing Dave Grohl's guitar at a Foo Fighters concert. If that isn't rock and roll then idk what is.
@@K-Y.S YES! it's just amazing to watch this shit. Dude must have had the time of its life and yet he manage to keep his shit together and act like it was nothing. I had the chance to perform with two bands that I am a huge fan of and it was not ever near as smooth of this haha
If I was that dude. I would put that I played with the Foo Fighters on all my resumes. Doesnt matter the job. Just put it in, attach a video and get the job.
I love how while Dave is like a kid with a new toy, Taylor immediately recognizes game and plays with KG like he would any other professional. KG had all the moves, the signals, stage controls, presence, star power, etc. Dave was giddy and gobsmacked but Taylor and KG just came to party.
Madgeney eh if I’m a rockstar I’m not shaking anybody’s hand when they could pull me in and gut me with a knife out of nowhere. Dave allows time to pass to see if Kiss Guy was alright and then he even hugged him.
A lot of people can play along to a song when they are listening to a recorded track. The timing of this guy on a live show is incredible. Its like he has been playing with the band for a decade.
If you take time to learn music and the person you are playing with has done the same, you start speaking to them in the language of music and naturally vibe.
Aside from his playing one of the best things about this video is the smiles coming from the band members. That’s got to be one of the best feelings in the world for this guy.
This guy is ridiculously good. He is a grade a performer and guitarist. Stage presence is out of this world and plays like he's played with the foo fighters for 20 years. His timing, impeccable. Everything was great. Would love to see more unknown musicians get on stage with big names
Dave Grohl gave me this same opportunity (except I had a guitar off with Chris) and I can 100% say that what he did and how well he did it is just impeccable. When I got on stage, it was on the same leg of the tour as Kiss Guy, and this guy had made such a mark on the Foos that they were literally comparing me to him, and during the following Europe legs of the tour, they turned down any request from fans to play with them because they "could not get any better than the Kiss Guy"
"cmon gimme, give me a solo!" dude then nails a tight solo just in time for Dave to go into his verse but he cracks up because of how mind blown he was. That shit was epic, this type of stuff needs to happend more.
@@shelbyseelbach9568 i can tell you i thought it was all setup too until it happened to one of my friends, some bands are actually cool as hell and let their fans play with them.
@@MrPhorick ok then. They let a fan play with them whether it was planned or not. Unless the band plays the song EXACTLY the same as the album version, it is planned and rehearsed. Hell, even kiss has to practice the live version before they tour.
Shelby Seelbach theres another video with some a few minutes before this happened. He was holding a sign saying “let me play monkey wrench” and Dave asked if he can legit play and everything beforehand. It’s real
No one commented on the most incredible part of this video. He literally made the band's exit on the fly. Instead of just ending the song normally and That requires you to know the bands programm. Which means this guy is very intuitive. Cause about 00:00:00:50sec after the song ended, he sent the drummer a cue to close the show. And to be in perfect sync, every drummer knows when your sent the cue you drop it on 2 pauses. You lift your hand after the cue and pause, then you riff down pause and then hit the last cords. he literally made his own exit. What a fucking guy. #Amazing
The guy is a musician and for sure he watch a lot of videos on youtube of FF playing this song (usually this one the band let a fan play it on stage) so he was prepared of course, he have even a sign on the crowd.
Thanks Dave. I am an older musician who ALWAYS had the headbanger fantasy of getting up on stage and playing with a professional metal band when I was 16. Metallica and Nirvana were my favorites. However, at 46 the dream is gone and life sets in. It makes me feel so good to see kids getting to live the dream. So thank you for remembering those who still have the dream. Awesome bro.
Go for it man! Trust me, it feels awesome when you get onstage with your favorite band! Just ask them nicely. Doesn't matter of you mess up or forgot the lyrics, you gonna have a really good time! I've done that a couple of times, and some of my favorite bands gave me picks as memento 🙌
Someone mentioned this on another Kiss Guy TH-cam video and its absolutely perfect. He brought the "Pick of Destiny". Watching all the band members just smiling from ear to ear was so fun!!!! Rock On Kiss Guy and RIP Taylor, you are sorely missed :(
I love the way he made him forget - he points to Dave after he's done with his solo to cue Dave to start singing again. He's been on the stage two minutes and already he's the band leader - that's why Grohl busts out laughing, just the utter cheek on the dude.
“If you had One shot Or one opportunity To seize everything you ever wanted In one moment Would you capture it Or just let it slip?” Kiss guy: “hold my beer”
Want something even more amazing... Kiss guy in a news interview said he learned the song that f'n day..... He practiced it all day,and also watched FF live to get thier mannerisms and tricks as they play live... He leaned the song THAT DAY of the show... Wow!!
Yeah I saw that, too. Very tasteful plus he not only went to different sides of the stage he made sure to pay attention to what everyone in the band was playing, too. This guy gets how to rock out but let your band stand out, too. This dude is going places.
Kitty Kat Overplay means to play a lot of fast runs, which can be impressive, but don't serve the song. Playing tastefully means to say more with one note than 100. A lesser player would have just been ripping the fastest licks he knew.
I love how Pat Smear just seems to have fun and be down for any of Dave's shenanigans. What a great bandmate and legend in his own right. They're all awesome lol
I always thought it was funny when Pat was playing in Nirvana back in the day. Cobain had the whole "grimace at your own shoes" thing going on, meanwhile Pat's grinning ear to ear the entire show. Foo Fighters seems so much more in tune with his overall vibe.
@@ImTheSecretSquare yeah it was unfortunate that pat came the moment Mr Cobain was going through a hard time. I mean the whole reason they brought him was because kurt needed someone to back him up so he could focus on his vocals more and have a fuller sound because he was turning more and more into a professional band and that huge amount of fame, high expectations, and his depression and mental instablity just made him not have fun performing anymore. I think it would be different if pat came in pre-nevermind. You can tell by his performances how careless but energetic kurt was and was clearly excited for the release of nevermind.
miked765 i agree unfortnatelly i saw this right before going to sleep and the kißß-guy rocked the living dead to life in me! Thankyou dave grohl for letting him
So stoked to see this! Yayo was an assistant at a make a band camp I was in about 10 years back. He was an amazing guitarist then and clearly still is. I got to see him jam with the bassist from disturbed... now this. Hell yeah Yayo.
Kiss guy with the right measure to play with Foo Fighters. Kiss guy had a lot of class just to play the right solos and compliment the band. Gave the audience a great show for the moment he was given to perform. Dave is a great person not just a great artist. Loved what I just saw!
So, let me see if I got this straight: he’s got KISS make-up on, wearing a Motorhead t-shirt, at a Foo Fighters concert. Not only that, he got to play David Grohl’s guitar while he’s jamming and rocking with the rest of the Foo Fighters. And to top all that, he rocked and kicked ass so hard, he made David Grohl forget the lyrics of his own damn song. Did I get all that right? What the actual fuck, goddamn it?! If that in itself isn’t Rock & Roll, I don’t know what the Hell is.... And you can’t just Instagram-filter that, children. Now get off my lawn.
@@shelbyseelbach9568 ah yes because while on tour you can obviously fly a random musician down to practice with you on the road to perfect a performance. No this doesnt get scripted. Planning this type of show takes months and even years sometimes, trust me I do performances almost every month. You dont plan for this type of thing, and you definitely don't have the time to plan for it while on tour. I dont understand your cynicism, it's based entirely out of thin air and it's pointless and untrue.
You want to know the crazy thing? Kiss Guy only learned Monkey Wrench a few hours before going to the concert. Dude is just that awesome and is destined to rock.
If there is one thing to notice about EVERYONE there; they ALL are Exuding Gratitude. Kiss Guy is thankful for his chance, Dave and the band feel blessed with his talent, the audience is blown away... gratitude is a powerful force.
I love how Dave could barely start the second verse from laughing at the fact that the kid played a tasty solo, AND he cut it perfectly on cue for the second verse without missing a beat! i fell out laughing too!
Dave Grohl is such a gem to the music industry. I saw him on the "broken leg" tour in Albuquerque and he was having the best time even on that throne of guitars.
This makes my day. I’m glad I stumbled across it. I remember my older brother back in the day playing Stairway to Heaven in his bedroom probably dreaming of something like this. Unfortunately he sucked and would have shit the bed, Kiss guy rocks! EPIC! On a serious note RIP Taylor another great musician and from all that knew him a beautiful person gone far to soon.
Literally couldn't stop grinning whilst watching this. It's basically a dream come true for this kid. I couldn't have been happier for him. It's one of those moments, where you just think... I don't think there is anyone out there who could have felt what he did up on that stage. Much love!
John Martinez his name is Yayo and he posted about this moment. Something along the lines he's just a super fan and had no idea this was going to happen. Also worth noting he rocked with Slash when he was like 10. I'm guessing somoene maybe Dave knew he was there and called an audible to surprise him. He got put on notice and threw down like a boss.
That whole bit about playing a guitar you're not used to. That's what makes me some degree less than certain this wasn't rehearsed. Notwithstanding the fact that every guitar is set up differently as far as bridge, nut, etc are concerned, which Kiss Guy didn't seem to be even slightly inhibited by, he seemed to be intimately familiar with the controls, knowing where to place the pickup selector for sustain, tone, etc. Cue to 6:20 and watch. I mean, when you're that good, that experienced, you've probably spent time on the 335 or something similar, but he seemed to know this guitar very well, and played fluidly with the band as if they'd rehearsed at least once. I dunno. If Dave says it was spontaneous, I'm gonna believe him. He's an honest man I'm sure.
KISS guy has experience playing in front of big crowds plus the model guitar Grohl uses isn't exactly a Parker Fly. It's a Gibson Dave Grohl signature ES-335. They were designed to be an all-purpose instrument close in style to an acoustic that anyone could pick up.
He's well known for being one of the most awesome, kindest and most hilarious persons in the music industry, ever. There are a ton of memes about him, all about his awesomeness.
Absolutely loved this, perfect combo of a world class rock band and a fantastic 'amateur' guitarist. He showcased his fantastic skill and talent but blended brilliantly with the band. Living proof that there are 1000's if not millions that could worthily be playing sold out arenas. Fuckin well done kiss guy, living the dream for all of us 🤘🤘🤘
Dude had a once in a lifetime shot and he took it. And he nailed it. I really do hope kiss guy makes it big one day
Same, Bro. Same.
Dude looks like he's used to performing....he was on fire all over that stage. Amazing.

Kiss Guy walks around the stage, interacts with band members and knows when to step back compared to other fans who just plain stands up and plays the riffs. Kiss Guy knows what he's doing.

When I got on stage, it was on the same leg of the tour as Kiss Guy, and this guy had made such a mark on the Foos that they were literally comparing me to him, and during the following Europe legs of the tour, they turned down any request from fans to play with them because they "could not get any better than the Kiss Guy"
I think I have watched this over 10 times, and it keep getting better every time.
Literally melted his own face with his playing. Awesome
He had to call out the face paint company he used afterwards "you said this stuff was waterproof but its obviously not shred proof"
🤣
Can't best a good ole face melter.. every now snd again lol 😆 😂 🤣
This should be the top comment
"cmon gimme, give me a solo!" dude then nails a tight solo just in time for Dave to go into his verse but he cracks up because of how mind blown he was.
That shit was epic, this type of stuff needs to happend more.
This doesn't "just happen", is a set up. All part of the show.
@@shelbyseelbach9568 i can tell you i thought it was all setup too until it happened to one of my friends, some bands are actually cool as hell and let their fans play with them.
@@MrPhorick ok then. They let a fan play with them whether it was planned or not.
Unless the band plays the song EXACTLY the same as the album version, it is planned and rehearsed.
Hell, even kiss has to practice the live version before they tour.
@Kip Winner ok? That seems totally unrelated. Best of luck with that!
Shelby Seelbach theres another video with some a few minutes before this happened. He was holding a sign saying “let me play monkey wrench” and Dave asked if he can legit play and everything beforehand. It’s real
This is one of the many reasons Dave is a true rock legend, he still knows it's about music and the fans
Danielle Nelson exactly! Love him and his funny sense of humor
Four years later and I still love this moment.
This is my neighbours favourite song, wether he likes it or not
This made my day 😂
I ran right into that one 👍🏽
lmao
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Brilliant :D
No one commented on the most incredible part of this video. He literally made the band's exit on the fly. Instead of just ending the song normally and That requires you to know the bands programm. Which means this guy is very intuitive. Cause about 00:00:00:50sec after the song ended, he sent the drummer a cue to close the show. And to be in perfect sync, every drummer knows when your sent the cue you drop it on 2 pauses. You lift your hand after the cue and pause, then you riff down pause and then hit the last cords. he literally made his own exit. What a fucking guy. #Amazing
Or was it set up
Mhm! And... you thought that he was chosen "randomly"? xD
I saw a interview with him your right when I first saw this I already was thinking this guy is a musician
The guy is a musician and for sure he watch a lot of videos on youtube of FF playing this song (usually this one the band let a fan play it on stage) so he was prepared of course, he have even a sign on the crowd.
He knew his shit.
Thanks Dave. I am an older musician who ALWAYS had the headbanger fantasy of getting up on stage and playing with a professional metal band when I was 16. Metallica and Nirvana were my favorites. However, at 46 the dream is gone and life sets in. It makes me feel so good to see kids getting to live the dream. So thank you for remembering those who still have the dream. Awesome bro.
Hell yes!
Go for it man! Trust me, it feels awesome when you get onstage with your favorite band! Just ask them nicely. Doesn't matter of you mess up or forgot the lyrics, you gonna have a really good time! I've done that a couple of times, and some of my favorite bands gave me picks as memento 🙌
Bro...
T H E F E E L S
46 and u think ur old?
Bro, you stilk alive, and if there is life, there is hope. I feel the same you feel, but i play in my church and love the way it feels.
Whenever I need to be able to smile 😊, I watch this video...Thank you Foo Fighters and especially Kiss Guy!🎉
He melted his own face with his guitar solo.
Came here to make the same comment. Well done. Hahaha
LOL! busted my gut with that one
that's so metal
YAYO SANCHEZ. Here’s his awesome music:

Fck yea he did.. Kiss Guy RULES!!
Whenever I need to smile like an idiot, I watch one of these videos where Dave brings someone on stage. Absolutely amazing.
...and this is the best of all of them by a fair margin
And that my friend... is how you finally prove to your 8th grade teacher, that you would some day make it.
Salv “now Stevie you can bring your three friends with you. That Steve Vai, what a nice little boy”
STEVE THAT IS WAY TOO LOUD
Principal Strickland definitely can't call this guy a slacker..
Kiss guy was on double secret probation the whole time he was in school🍀
Perfect comment.
Someone mentioned this on another Kiss Guy TH-cam video and its absolutely perfect. He brought the "Pick of Destiny". Watching all the band members just smiling from ear to ear was so fun!!!! Rock On Kiss Guy and RIP Taylor, you are sorely missed :(
KID literally willed this into existence! You can tell he already envisioned how he would do this and perform! Waited his whole life for this!
me too.
It must be an honour to make the legend Dave grouhl himself forgot the words to his own song
I love the way he made him forget - he points to Dave after he's done with his solo to cue Dave to start singing again. He's been on the stage two minutes and already he's the band leader - that's why Grohl busts out laughing, just the utter cheek on the dude.
Dave's reaction to the guitar solo is just the absolute best!
Kkkkkkkkkkkkk
You can feel the happiness of another human being enjoying his passion
So much talent that's hidden in the world. This man was awesome.
“If you had
One shot
Or one opportunity
To seize everything you ever wanted
In one moment
Would you capture it
Or just let it slip?”
Kiss guy: “hold my beer”
"I brought my pick."
FUCK. YES.
Clean.
Cool
@@beautyonabarnbudget is that on your hazing paddle?
On another note that says it best
Dave's laugh after the solo is SO good, that's genuine shock. And the way the dude points back at Dave like "ok, your turn!" Killer.
The entire bands excitement plus the insane energy of Kiss Guy is so great to see
Want something even more amazing... Kiss guy in a news interview said he learned the song that f'n day..... He practiced it all day,and also watched FF live to get thier mannerisms and tricks as they play live... He leaned the song THAT DAY of the show... Wow!!
Dave’s face when Kiss Guy shreds that solo makes me so happy. He’s just so fucking surprised and happy.
Kiss guy was smart to pull out some tasty licks and not overplay.
Yeah I saw that, too. Very tasteful plus he not only went to different sides of the stage he made sure to pay attention to what everyone in the band was playing, too. This guy gets how to rock out but let your band stand out, too. This dude is going places.
Yep, great stage moves.
Overplay? You mean this was not his best? I loved it.
Kitty Kat Overplay means to play a lot of fast runs, which can be impressive, but don't serve the song. Playing tastefully means to say more with one note than 100. A lesser player would have just been ripping the fastest licks he knew.
Vinny D ty for that info. I didn't know that. 😊
He is great. Do you know if he's currently in a band?
So many talented people that never get a chance to showcase their talent. Kiss guy owned the stage.
I’ve watched this video probably over 30 times. It never gets old
Loved the fact that he’s walking around like he owns the stage , and he really does 🎶
3:40 Dave just fades out into the background to let Kiss Guy have a go.
That's greatness if you ever saw it.
Kiss Guy's stage presence: 1000%
The dude is legit.. He didnt even overplay it.. He's like a pro.. So happy for this guy. Im smilin towards the end of the video
Dude legitimately took over the stage, communicated with every band member, makes a great front man !
I love how Pat Smear just seems to have fun and be down for any of Dave's shenanigans. What a great bandmate and legend in his own right. They're all awesome lol
I always thought it was funny when Pat was playing in Nirvana back in the day. Cobain had the whole "grimace at your own shoes" thing going on, meanwhile Pat's grinning ear to ear the entire show. Foo Fighters seems so much more in tune with his overall vibe.
@@ImTheSecretSquare yeah it was unfortunate that pat came the moment Mr Cobain was going through a hard time. I mean the whole reason they brought him was because kurt needed someone to back him up so he could focus on his vocals more and have a fuller sound because he was turning more and more into a professional band and that huge amount of fame, high expectations, and his depression and mental instablity just made him not have fun performing anymore. I think it would be different if pat came in pre-nevermind. You can tell by his performances how careless but energetic kurt was and was clearly excited for the release of nevermind.
He's sucha cutie, quietly enjoying it all :)
You are getting a like for the correct usage of shenanigans
this was actually legendary, dude practiced his whole life for this and he absolutely lit up the entirety of the crowd
Ah, this gets me emotional. Having one of the coolest guys in rock give you a chance, and then killing it...Yayo is living his best life.
The hope that someday I will feel even a fraction of the joy that Yayo must have felt keeps me going.
“Hey you ever heard of Kiss?”
-“You mean kiss guy!?”
Lol!!!!!!
Watching Kiss Guy and laughing at the comments just pulled my soul out of depression.
Yeah, well you’re a big fat curly headed fuck.
p. body ha, that’s so funny. Last time I heard that joke, I laughed so hard I fell off my dinosaur
Brennan Huff, 😢
p. body do you wanna go do karate in the garage?
Brennan Huff, yep!
RIP Taylor Hawkins. I always loved the interactions between him and Kiss Guy in this video.
Still can't believe he's gone. He was so happy in this video.
Like when they made eye contact to start the song perfectly
Name of song?

@@aktchungrabanio6467 esa no es, es electrónica de los 2000
life energy level increased by 200% after watching this.
miked765 at LEAST 200% 😊
miked765 i agree unfortnatelly i saw this right before going to sleep and the kißß-guy rocked the living dead to life in me! Thankyou dave grohl for letting him
He played with intensity while remaining humble to the experience. I was awake for over an hour after watching this one night just before bed.
I was laughing with joy and clapping at my damn tv. THIS is what rock n roll is all about!!!!
So stoked to see this! Yayo was an assistant at a make a band camp I was in about 10 years back. He was an amazing guitarist then and clearly still is. I got to see him jam with the bassist from disturbed... now this. Hell yeah Yayo.
natural ear???
dklassyone You got it! Over at Music Lab. We played at Jovitas before the whole herion ring deal was revealed.....
dude we probably know each other then. do you remember the loose cannons?
Wow.....that is awesome. I DREAM of that shit happening.....if I could play guitar. ;)
YAYO SANCHEZ. Here’s his awesome music:

Kiss guy with the right measure to play with Foo Fighters. Kiss guy had a lot of class just to play the right solos and compliment the band. Gave the audience a great show for the moment he was given to perform. Dave is a great person not just a great artist. Loved what I just saw!
So, let me see if I got this straight: he’s got KISS make-up on, wearing a Motorhead t-shirt, at a Foo Fighters concert. Not only that, he got to play David Grohl’s guitar while he’s jamming and rocking with the rest of the Foo Fighters. And to top all that, he rocked and kicked ass so hard, he made David Grohl forget the lyrics of his own damn song. Did I get all that right? What the actual fuck, goddamn it?! If that in itself isn’t Rock & Roll, I don’t know what the Hell is.... And you can’t just Instagram-filter that, children. Now get off my lawn.
You forget the part that dave literally had a break to drink a beer xD
And snapped in some blues on the song.
Sorry I bumped your likes for this comment off of 69
F*cking epic...
Dave should invite him to some tours. He deserves it completely
Ya, he was already invited to this performance, not to mention the rehearsals beforehand.
@@shelbyseelbach9568 it's not... Stop spreading lies.
@@SirZeck Nah, I'll continue to express my beliefs. Thanks though.
@Mickey A. Bacination of course
@@shelbyseelbach9568 ah yes because while on tour you can obviously fly a random musician down to practice with you on the road to perfect a performance. No this doesnt get scripted. Planning this type of show takes months and even years sometimes, trust me I do performances almost every month. You dont plan for this type of thing, and you definitely don't have the time to plan for it while on tour. I dont understand your cynicism, it's based entirely out of thin air and it's pointless and untrue.
When Dave Grohl can sit back, drink a beer, as you take over HIS show, you know your years of late night practice have paid off.
Yep that's your guy
...when all the "woodshed practice" pays off.
You want to know the crazy thing? Kiss Guy only learned Monkey Wrench a few hours before going to the concert. Dude is just that awesome and is destined to rock.
@@scottwpilgrim Unreal man. Literally the best moment to prove that hardwork and grind can get noticed.
konkyolife EXACTLY.
If you don't smile for this you have no soul
I was smiling the whole time. Incredible.
I cried, does that count? XD
I’m a ginger and smiled....do I get a soul?!
If there is one thing to notice about EVERYONE there; they ALL are Exuding Gratitude. Kiss Guy is thankful for his chance, Dave and the band feel blessed with his talent, the audience is blown away... gratitude is a powerful force.
I love how Dave could barely start the second verse from laughing at the fact that the kid played a tasty solo, AND he cut it perfectly on cue for the second verse without missing a beat! i fell out laughing too!
Imagine how many times he played that song he did not lost the beat
Perfect timing and solo was in the same key as the song. Blended it well. Kid is sick
Also he moved around the stage giving space the band members if needed, adding his own stage presence.
Dude knows what he's doing.
Check this riff is fucking tasty!
Check out the live videos he has made since this has happened, he is working hard: facebook.com/YayoSanchez333/
David is like a proud father who raised his rockstar kid when the kiss guy played this song
Dave Grohl is such a gem to the music industry. I saw him on the "broken leg" tour in Albuquerque and he was having the best time even on that throne of guitars.
and despite his broken leg, he was in Italy for Rockin'1000....
This makes my day. I’m glad I stumbled across it. I remember my older brother back in the day playing Stairway to Heaven in his bedroom probably dreaming of something like this. Unfortunately he sucked and would have shit the bed, Kiss guy rocks! EPIC!
On a serious note RIP Taylor another great musician and from all that knew him a beautiful person gone far to soon.
As a “Kiss Guy” since 1974, and now 65 in 2021, a toast to future generations of Kiss Guy
Dave, a real likable rock star. Class act.
Check Rob Joyce for Keith Urban, it's the same level of epic.
He's humble and a great dad and rocker.
Not just Dave, just look at the smiles on the faces of the rest of the band. They really enjoyed this xD
yeah for sure
LOL well fuck youre feelings. The actual facts state the complete opposite
Literally couldn't stop grinning whilst watching this. It's basically a dream come true for this kid. I couldn't have been happier for him. It's one of those moments, where you just think... I don't think there is anyone out there who could have felt what he did up on that stage. Much love!
I keep coming back over the years to watch this. Every time I get emotional. Such an incredible performance.
Dave's facial expressions and reactions are enough to show that this was definitely not planned
okay....
John Martinez his name is Yayo and he posted about this moment. Something along the lines he's just a super fan and had no idea this was going to happen. Also worth noting he rocked with Slash when he was like 10. I'm guessing somoene maybe Dave knew he was there and called an audible to surprise him. He got put on notice and threw down like a boss.
Not just his, check out the band, they all have that same "fuck yea!" face going on.
That whole bit about playing a guitar you're not used to. That's what makes me some degree less than certain this wasn't rehearsed. Notwithstanding the fact that every guitar is set up differently as far as bridge, nut, etc are concerned, which Kiss Guy didn't seem to be even slightly inhibited by, he seemed to be intimately familiar with the controls, knowing where to place the pickup selector for sustain, tone, etc. Cue to 6:20 and watch.
I mean, when you're that good, that experienced, you've probably spent time on the 335 or something similar, but he seemed to know this guitar very well, and played fluidly with the band as if they'd rehearsed at least once.
I dunno. If Dave says it was spontaneous, I'm gonna believe him. He's an honest man I'm sure.
KISS guy has experience playing in front of big crowds plus the model guitar Grohl uses isn't exactly a Parker Fly. It's a Gibson Dave Grohl signature ES-335. They were designed to be an all-purpose instrument close in style to an acoustic that anyone could pick up.
Not even that big a FF fan but wow..Dave is a real class act
He's well known for being one of the most awesome, kindest and most hilarious persons in the music industry, ever. There are a ton of memes about him, all about his awesomeness.
couldn't agree more deez!
We can't all like the same music, but we can appreciate people who are respectful and encouraging.
Deez Balls totally agreed
yup
Absolutely loved this, perfect combo of a world class rock band and a fantastic 'amateur' guitarist. He showcased his fantastic skill and talent but blended brilliantly with the band. Living proof that there are 1000's if not millions that could worthily be playing sold out arenas. Fuckin well done kiss guy, living the dream for all of us 🤘🤘🤘
That guitarist is not no amateur. He is a pro that hasn't been discovered yet.....
@@thomasmarquez6790 that's why he put 'amateur' in single quotes........
It doesn't sound like 'amateur' to me..
I watch this once a year and it fills me with so much joy every time.
