Everybody needs to realize that Eric learned how to play Eruption BEFORE guitar lessons on TH-cam were mainstream and high-quality videos of Eddie playing were not existent. Now THAT'S some respect brother.
I'm not sure he learned it.... I think he wrote it, but I may be wrong.........Anyway, I get your point........ TH-cam gives youngsters a HUGE advantage nowadays......... This kid certaintly made a good job of recreating Eruption though, well done.

Not every rockstar is like that though. Take for example Angus Young of AC⚡DC. He never did drugs and he rarely drank. The only bad habit he has is smoking. He's been married one time and he's been in the same band his whole life since starting his music career.

The problem with doing guitar stuff at school talent shows is that not one single person there will appreciate the work behind the guitar solo or generally like the song being played, with that said this is one the best covers of eruption I’ve seen by someone live
@@MK-rk4no 8th Grade in 2008. So the kid was born around 1994. The Parents were probably around 25-30 then. Meaning they were around 9-14 years old when Eruption released. So i'd say they should all know it.
I remember how powerful it felt to play Eruption. The Music Store that gave me guitar lessons was having an open house concert where people could play whatever on their instruments, and I chose to play 316 followed by Eddie Van Halen’s extended version of the Eruption solo, and I remember beginning once the amps went on. The crowd was taking at first but once it started they went dead silent. They were silent the whole time. It was crazy, like they were glued to the performance the whole time. I wasn’t perfect, but I did my best and heard a kid backstage yell “HE’S DOING FINGER TAPPING!!!” And as quickly as it started it was over. I walked off stage and sat down.
What a bloody legend. He isn’t even tapping his foot and he still manages to play that. This kid, Green Day, and The Offspring inspired me to learn how to play Guitar.
2.6k dislikes came from every participant since he performed... this kid was the last winner that school ever had, and there’s been at least a couple dozen talent shows between then and now
That means a lot more to me now, after Eddie's passing. Back in the 80's. I wore out 2 cassettes listening to that prelude to "girl you really got me" still awesome......
I remember in like 2000 when my school did this and some kid played the same thing. He was so good BUT for some reason the crowd thought it was boring and didn't clap or anything. Poor kid didn't even place for a price. He sounded awesome to.
Talent shows are extremely biased at high schools and middle schools. In one of the shows at my school, there was a super good dance crew that did a choreography to Flux Pavillion's Gold Dust (if you've ever seen America's Best Dance Crew, it was like that)... they didn't even place in top 5 despite honestly being good enough to teach their own freestyle courses at the local dance studios. The top performance was given to a girl doing a Hawaiian dance that was pretty much as you'd expect (the first 10 seconds being interesting and the next 1.5 minutes being the first 10 seconds on repeat). Talent shows are rigged.
Congrats, buddy...you did GREAT!!!! MY son(who is now almost 30), also played Eruption on his guitar for his eighth grade talent show! Half the audience had their lighters up in the air!! I was just in tears..I was SO PROUD of him!!! SHRED ON, YOUNG MAN!!! 🎶🎸🎶🎸🎶
Little Brother, Uncle Eddie is smiling down upon you from Heaven!!! Awesome job kiddo, you have made us Gen Xers very happy and proud!!! I'm looking forward to hearing more from you in the future! 😎👍
LOL. Not even close. We're in the 90s. Trust me, i graduated high school in 2003. Baggy bleached jeans, graphic tees and bowlcuts were pure 90s. 2000s gave rise to bleached spiky hair
1:57 It sounds like some kid said "I think It's trash" and "It hurts my ears". Kind of makes me sad, this kid has no idea how much work and talent it takes to learn this, and especially at the age of 12 or 13.

@@cr_2413 fuckin dumbass with an among us profile picture talking about "dark humor" because he posted a comment a year ago about a legend who died recently
Yep. If I play a simple blues scale and hang on to triplets for dear life the crowd goes fucking insane. But when I play a crazy hard solo like something from pat benitar or pantera literally no one even acknowledges it. I think it has something to do with being a musician and better being able to critically listen for complicated arrangements. Our brains think differently.
The audience is never wrong. They want to hear what sounds cool, not necessarily the speedy scales you've rehearsed. An E5 power chord is no less powerful just because you can play it with one finger.
pape37 Except one is easy and takes pretty much no talent or innovation. Which leads to the same boring music that everyone complains about but keeps buying because marketers tell them to. This is why the 60s/70s was a better period for musical innovation. A large portion of the population wanted something new, which required creative innovation. As opposed to now where everyone is afraid of change. I understand your point though, however, the average person is fucking boring.
Not at all. As talented as the kid is. It's made me realise more how many people don't understand guitar playing. Now many people can mimic this. You see lots of posts people playing this or this style. But How many people can mimic Jimi Hendrix? Peter Greens-Fleetwood Mac? Frank Zappa? Allman Brothers? Rory Gallagher? Santana? Sure there's tracks from those artist people can do. But I bet you there's more tracks people can't do than they can. But yet cover bands can do a full set of Metallica... And sound very close.... Good luck trying to do a full set of Hendrick's, Green, Zapper, Brothers, Gallagher, Santana lol
+Plurple I bet none of them do but nevertheless I´m a very cultured person and when I was at that age I was already cultured, yes, and yet I didn´t know this song.
Eric, wow, you have more talent in your pinky than I have in my whole body and I'm 55 years old ! Incredible playing, probably even better now as this was 13 years ago ! Best wishes from the UK !
why the fuck are people criticizing this kid? who gives a fuck if he played it too slow or skipped over some parts, it sounded just fine. at least he didnt play sloppy like a lot of other people who play eruption

Yep. If I play a simple blues scale and hang on to triplets for dear life the crowd goes fucking insane. But when I play a crazy hard solo like something from pat benitar or pantera literally no one even acknowledges it.
I think it has something to do with being a musician and better being able to critically listen for complicated arrangements. Our brains think differently.

The audience is never wrong. They want to hear what sounds cool, not necessarily the speedy scales you've rehearsed. An E5 power chord is no less powerful just because you can play it with one finger.
pape37 Except one is easy and takes pretty much no talent or innovation. Which leads to the same boring music that everyone complains about but keeps buying because marketers tell them to.
This is why the 60s/70s was a better period for musical innovation. A large portion of the population wanted something new, which required creative innovation. As opposed to now where everyone is afraid of change.
I understand your point though, however, the average person is fucking boring.
Well, most people can't even count their beats right soooo...
So dam awesome hun keep it going/ you are great!
Just WOW!

Not at all. As talented as the kid is. It's made me realise more how many people don't understand guitar playing. Now many people can mimic this. You see lots of posts people playing this or this style. But How many people can mimic Jimi Hendrix? Peter Greens-Fleetwood Mac? Frank Zappa? Allman Brothers? Rory Gallagher? Santana? Sure there's tracks from those artist people can do. But I bet you there's more tracks people can't do than they can. But yet cover bands can do a full set of Metallica... And sound very close.... Good luck trying to do a full set of Hendrick's, Green, Zapper, Brothers, Gallagher, Santana lol

I wish the crowd would just STFU and let me enjoy this EPIC performance of one of the most iconic guitar solos of all time...
The aisles should have been patrolled by tazer armed bouncers.
