I've played enter sandman in guitar center and someone actually grabbed a guitar and started jamming with me. It was pretty damn cool. One of his buddies tapped on the Amp to the drum beat.
Overall you nailed this list, although I have to admit none of these ever got me kicked out lol. I'd probably add Star Spangled Banner/Purple Haze/Little Wing, Freebird/Sweet Home Alabama, Hotel California, Wish You Were Here, and Cat Scratch Fever/ Stranglehold if there was a top 20.
Ages ago when Van Halen's 1984 came out i was in a Music Store that dealt mainly in keyboards. One of the employees mentioned that just about everyone that came in there played (or tried to) Jump. Imagine hearing that over and over all day and I think you will understand.
My elementary school gym teachers had an unhealthy obsession with this song and I would literally quit that job so fast I can’t stand the song to this day
Funnily enough, I was just thinking the other day of doing a cover of the Top Gun theme. PS: I love Steve Stevens guitar playing and love those 80s Billy Idol songs! :)
Thank you Perry, but I must admit, I am a bit of a wannabe shredder! :D PS: Just checked out your bass playing and you sound great - you're a natural with the fretless! :)
This is so funny. 😆😆 I remember back in the 90s at rock clubs, there was an actual sign forbiding bands from playing enter sandman, welcome to the jungle and smells like 😅😅
I grew up with several of these songs. At least the ones from the 70's. I was a teenager in the 70's. I don't consider these songs that irritating. Okay, Smoke on the Water has gotten a little milage on it, but it was still good enough for them to play at their Rock Hall of Fame induction. I actually go against the suggested way to buy a guitar anyway. I usually buy it on Amazon and give it a try at home. If it isn't satisfactory I send it back. Before anyone wigs out, (I know they say you should always buy in person) but, I can do that for a couple reasons. First I only buy it if it is fufilled by Amazon. That is a must. Amazon has a great track record for returns. Plus we have a huge Amazon warehouse 10 minutes from my house so I can usually get stuff the next day, and sometimes I can even get it the same day, if its $35 or more. Plus there are other Amazon warehouses 2 hours down the road. So I'm pretty safe as long as I keep it either sold by Amazon or at a minimum Fufilled by Amazon. Honestly, I haven't had to return one yet. I think I have gotten 4 on Amazon, 2 from Sweetwater, (Sweetwater is always good if something is wrong they will make it right) the rest I inherited, so I have not had the chance to get kicked out of a guitar shop. But I see videos like this all the time. I may just grab my Nephew and go hit a couple guitar stores just to see how they react to my version of Smoke on the Water. If anyone is curious, its from the live Made in Japan album, this version has an extra lick at the beginning that makes it interesting.
I never liked electric guitars. After knowing that the community shuns people who play popular songs I can say It would be the last instrument I'd ever be interested to learn.
What, no dis-honorable mention for the Em chord of Nothing Else Matters?... Speaking of Em I think the Em chord in House of the Rising Sun is a major chord. it's an old progression that has been used countless times in many classic tunes. Led Zeppelin's Babe I'm Gonna Leave You, (I know someone else wrote the tune) Chicago '25 or 6 to 4', Ten Years After 'I'd Love to Change the World', Monkees 'stepping Stone' etc. ....even Sweet Child of Mine is a variation of the same theme
I think I have the chord progression slightly wrong with House of the Rising Sun and you are right! I have been picked up on that. I think it is an E7 instead of Em.

The only time i was asked to leave was when i spent an hour playing guitars thru a full stack Marshall they had set up. The salesman got snippy with me and said "if your not buying anything please leave" so i leaned the guitar down gently, quickly turned up all the amp's knobs and got out of there before the screaming feedback took what was left of my hearing.
Hello Clare! I didn't know you were watching! Haha!! :D I remember that, but it was because I hadn't practiced it enough to play live. :D Hope all is well at your end! :)
I’ve never heard anyone play #4, and I absolutely hate “smoke on the water” Literally every person who doesn’t really play, but always says “yeah I tried to learn a little back in the day” Smoke on the Water is what they always riff on... it makes my ears bleed
Why are this riffs banned by store owners? Is it because they are overplayed by people (like you said in a previous comment). And what's the deal with the stairway to heaven? Is it banned because of the hidden message of the lyrics, is it because of the scandal?
I think you have to be in it to win it and hard to explain humour. You might have to be a bit warped perhaps. Hahaha!! :D If you have ever watched Wayne's World, you you will get the Stairway bit. Not as deep as records being played backwards with Satanic messages! Haha!! :D Also, the riffs in the video are sacred and need to be treated carefully. :)
@@MoonrunnerMusic so if I come in do I get to pick Foggy Mountain Breakdown or RockyTop? I’m sure you guys are sick into death hearing these songs, do you offer any guidance for this?
I didn't get much of the joke on this one. I think I heard Sweet Child, and Stairway, but why are they not to be played on the guitar shops? :3 Thanks for any helpful true info. :)
I think you have to be in it to get it. :D They're riffs which are played by most over and over. They are still highly esteemed and respected classic tunes. :) PS: Kind of hard to explain humour to somebody. :D
Personally.... When I hear a riff like sweet etc or stairway to heaven I feel like I'm getting brain tortured... I know I'm not the only one.... The fact is that once you are into music stuff like having bands playing music and staying in a environment of musicians..... These riffs you hear so many times that you really would smash on the floor the instrument prosucing that melody.....
The problem is that many kids went in and played them wrong... now a days with tab and youtube there is no excuse, but there are also no more guitar shops... (or soon to be none) - Glad Cat scratch fever wasn't on your list... used to be my go to for trying out a new distortion petal :-)

That would be me! I do that everytime I try out a keyboard! Haha!! :D
Jump is not a great song... but if they could play 'I'll Wait' from 1984, I can listen to that all day
A different career option for those people would be a better fit

Boohoo you. Imagine doctor complaining about blood or trainer about sweat.

I think you have to be in it to get it. :D They're riffs which are played by most over and over. They are still highly esteemed and respected classic tunes. :) PS: Kind of hard to explain humour to somebody. :D
Apparently according to some superstitious fools, those songs are considered to summon demons.
They are played way too much so employees are sick of hearing them
Personally.... When I hear a riff like sweet etc or stairway to heaven I feel like I'm getting brain tortured... I know I'm not the only one.... The fact is that once you are into music stuff like having bands playing music and staying in a environment of musicians..... These riffs you hear so many times that you really would smash on the floor the instrument prosucing that melody.....
The problem is that many kids went in and played them wrong... now a days with tab and youtube there is no excuse, but there are also no more guitar shops... (or soon to be none) - Glad Cat scratch fever wasn't on your list... used to be my go to for trying out a new distortion petal :-)
Cat Scratch Fever might feature on part 3! :D
I just play AC/DC loud. Usually get asked to go.
Coincidentally, just put up an AC/DC riff video: th-cam.com/video/O_lNvN-pvCk/w-d-xo.html
Bruh all of these are my favorites
Rock on! :)
At my local guitar store you get kicked out if you play "Dance Of Eternity".
Who plays that?
Love the Jane Hat.
Thank you David! :)
Why are these banned?!
Well, I blame the goblins! :D :D :D
I can't believe a song that's so beautiful isn't allowed to be played
@@pietersloft2318 I think there is a petition out there to get things changed! :D :D :D
0:55 😂 Definitely getting chucked out if you start that one up....!
Oooh.
Dam that's everything I can play lol.im so band from any shop
You just need to find the shops/stores which have a sign 'Stairway Allowed' - usually located next to 'We take credit cards'. :D

Sorry to hear about Lew. Best wishes to you. :)
