Leo Moracchioli is an inspiration. He started doing videos for fun on youtube and hard working he nailed the most fucking epic and legendary metal festival in the world.
I think the take-away-lesson is: Don't aim for profit. Do what you like and keep improving and only then, when lots of other pieces have fallen into place already, you can start thinking about profit...
@@Khazandar Leo has done a lot for metal in the UA-cam community and has worked hard to get where he is at. Him and the rest of the dudes being able to play at Wacken (a metal festival) is not only deserved, but a big accomplishment for his and their careers.
@@calebhohneke8482 Yep. I'm an old guy who grew up on Iron Maiden, Bon Jovi, Scorpions, Metallica... But later the metal scene turned darker and I turned to other kinds of music. Leo rekindled my love of metal by doing what originally attracted me to it - the pure joy and energy of it.
@@cdnit He had millions of subs before she was on Africa, if anything he made HER famous, she didnt have more than a about 2k subs before Africa, after it she for some reason gained a lot, which is weird considering she really is nothing special, but she really just got subs by proxy. He made HER a success , not the other way around.
Let's take a moment to talk about the drummer and the guitarist's skills! Both play the guitar and the drums perfectly, as if it would be their only instrument... Two freaking monsters!!!!!!
I'm 50 and I love this shit! I've been a fan of Leo for years, and seeing this epic live performance just proves that he's as talented as I knew he was.
@@Nekroskum90 maybe because we grew up on Metallica, Megadeth, MOD/SOD, Anthrax and others who did next to nothing like what Leo is doing, yet we wish they did.
Truls is a legend. A great drummer, a shredder, a vocalist and apparently a stage animal, too. "Do you wanna catch them all?!" "Yeaah." "That was kinda shitty. DO YOU WANNA CATCH THEM ALL?!!!" Seriously speaking, this is beyond awesome. A bunch of youtuber buddies, turned collab musicians, turned friends, turned into a tour band, more tight and energetic on stage than most "real" bands.
Had to drag my friends there and they all loved it Audience was a bit slow but hey it was 2 am and the last day, we were a little tired Please invite him back sometime soon
Anyone who doesn’t want to see the original songs ruined picked apart and put back together in a heading metal shredding death metal screaming and heavy gutair riffs kind way feel free to leave at anytime but I’m digging this so much.
2019: The year that Leo Moracchioli put the headbangers to scream the POKEMON Theme at Wacken Open Air. What a incredible guy!!! Hope one day I could reach something like this
have you heard of the german band eisbrecher? they do that with the pokerap on a daily basis xD the lead singer (and the guitarist if im not wrong) both worked on the german version of the pokerap and the eisbrecher fans get to hear it almost every concert.
sorry to say ... but ... at 2:00 AM no German at Wacken is able to scream the ENGLISH Pokemon theme ... German version - maybe ... English - no chance.
Pokemon? Pfff, cmon bro... we all sing Pokemon opening, no matter what key... the best is singing Hello with no shame!!! Hello from the other siiiiiiide
Mano, in Killing In The Name Of, at 29:19 he makes the effect of the uphill hitting the neck, man, that was really great. I lost the breath of laughing so much with it hahahahha
Can I just say... HOLY FUCK DID THEY NAIL "A NEW LEVEL"!!! I'm sure Dime and Vinny were looking down, smiling, and Headbanging right along with everyone else.
This concept is such one of a genius...to take songs we all know and make it to metal so to make it "metal-like(d)"....this is a real invention, Leo, keep on rocking
You know what this incredible insanity reminds me of ? The band Scatterbrain. They were a lot like this. Insane musicians playing songs the way they want to!
This line-up of songs beat any Punk goes pop albums! Good job to Leo to find great musicians to play live with. Never would I imagine someone could play pop music while the metalheads are headbanging in Wacken.
Too much awesomeness to comment on all of it. Opening with Ghostbusters? Crowd surfing while singing Killing in the Name? Okay, they had ‘em crowd surfing to the Pokémon theme song?!? That’s sick! Surg? Sarg? The drummer has a hell of a voice.
As if Leo wasn't talented enough he gathered all of these crazy talented individuals together and put on a hell of show. Even though the crowd didn't seem like they were getting into it too much it gave me goosebumps at times just watching this video
That's why rock is my fave! So many styles to suit my mood! You rock! That's what I say when people ask me why I like rock so much. Killer reply. Take care
Rabea on drums was surprisingly good. But looking at his face when he first starts playing it's clear he's thinking "please don't fuck up, please don't fuck up" lol
Hello @all this is not a cover-band. This is a fucking metalband who did an awesome job. Never heared or have seen a musician like Leo & his awesome band. He gave every song HIS special sound, and never forget the vibe of the original. That's Leo/ Frogleap. Great job. Love his work. Never did any bad. \,,,/ What a blast, at 'the new level'!
It's so wonderful to hear you're live shows now on UA-cam, I'm 64 man, and on assistance, I honestly can't get to your gig's. You are an absolute genius, Guitar player, Bass player, Vox Man, Arranger, Editor, Engineer, and everything in between. Fuckin' love your tunes. Live long and prosper..
It was another great experience to be at a concert with these fantastically talented musicians, the same set list in Stavanger 6 March 2020 before all concerts were postponed. See you later:-)
I just stood in the crowd. Dead af. It was more like keep standing and don't fall asleep after 7 days of party than enjoying the show. But still enjoyed it.
Can we please just take a moment to appreciate this drummer.
a drummer with awesome vocals skills at that
@@jtf9670 and guitar skills. Mr Truls Haugen, an absolute beast.
yeah - especially drumming 3/4 of the concert and then playing guitar....
Dude is a legend.
We can take more than a moment.
Leo's voice live is actually the same as in the videos.. i respect that
Hahaha the same shit
❤🎤🌍🎶
Sure
RIGHT??? :-D
Yes Leo's vocals are Consistently awesome in every setting. ( What a jewel to the METAL community) God has blessed you Leo.
I like how Leo can make an entire metal festival to enjoy listening to the Ghostbusters theme song
Who doesn't like the Ghostbusters theme this what I'm wondering
Just A Hologram i meant to day “headbanging to the Ghostbusters theme” but i just woke up when I commented and i was out of it
That's nothing, he actually made em heabaning at the Pokemon song!
@@davidebrindisi925 a lot of them grew up with that, it’s was also already rock
@@davidebrindisi925 Thats because we had to take a break from the 10 year session with Powerglove ;)
Leo Moracchioli is an inspiration. He started doing videos for fun on youtube and hard working he nailed the most fucking epic and legendary metal festival in the world.
I know what you mean, but did every band not start from somewhere? Many even without the help of internet.
I wouldn't go that far.
Metal Montreal imo can rival most events.
I think the take-away-lesson is: Don't aim for profit. Do what you like and keep improving and only then, when lots of other pieces have fallen into place already, you can start thinking about profit...
@@ffej4895 Most. But not Wacken. :3
Dude is insanely talented. His ear and talent for sound mixing is genius.
Glad Leo finally "made it" to a huge venue.....very much deserved.
Based on what?

This band has just members that are "ultimate metal musicians"
Erveryone can play erverything perfectly
Did anyone else miss Hannah on stage for the Africa version?
I miss Hannah on everything
@@johnnyutah482 - i guess Rabea prob's missed her too.. :- /
@@cdnit Who, Leo? I'll confess that I don't think the stuff with female vocals are near the best stuff he's done.
@@cdnit Hanna was on the tour there must have been a reason for her absence
@@cdnit

Let's take a moment to talk about the drummer and the guitarist's skills! Both play the guitar and the drums perfectly, as if it would be their only instrument... Two freaking monsters!!!!!!
Drummer has insane vocal chops too :)
And what about Leo who plays guitar, drums, Bass guitar and sings perfectly too.....it's fuckin' insane
Both were ausome.
Guitarist is Rabea Massad! And yes he's BAAADAAASS
Guitarist is Rabea Massad and yes he's BAAADAAASS
The drummer has a really good voice.
Sing a long!
When his mic works.
Not complaining. I love every song, but the equipment failed the drummer.
Love how everyone in this band can just change to another instrument like is nothing. All super talented people
Play Pokémon theme on the biggest Metal Festival. You deserve the Award :"Badassest of the Badass es"
Leo's voice on A New Level...jeeezzzz, that man is amazing
Good Lord, Rebea's solo too, wtf!
I'm going to need weeks of physical therapy to recover from the whiplash I got from the drummer's transition to vocals. Absolutely mental.
One of the best cover band i've seen in my entire life. And playing at wacken. Really great
Rabea is a beast! This band is super tight. Leo rocks. I wasn't there but this is the next best thing. Thanks Leo
I'm 50 and I love this shit! I've been a fan of Leo for years, and seeing this epic live performance just proves that he's as talented as I knew he was.
I just found him last night, I'm at work today wanting to crank it, but sadly... I can't.
why do people over 50 need to start a comment with their age?
@@Nekroskum90 maybe because we grew up on Metallica, Megadeth, MOD/SOD, Anthrax and others who did next to nothing like what Leo is doing, yet we wish they did.
I like how Africa's outro has it's separate time stamp.
Actually, Africa should now officially be called "Intro" (also by Toto)
That outro is so good..
Damn that drummer has an epic singing voice
Damn, is that Rabea Massaad on the guitars? He's so damn good!
He also plays the drum for Pokemon song
I thought so!
He's guitar jesus 😑
Sure is
And the drummer is also awesome on guitar.
Awesome when any band member can play any instrument.
Leo crowdsurfing during Killing in the name was amazing
I'm glad that they know that the Africa's outro is one hell of song with a insane good riff in it.
And the Corona came along and these guys couldn't do this live anymore. Best live concert I've seen in a long time. Very talented musucians
Next Marvel movie: Leo and the Multi-Musicians of Madness
Truls is a legend. A great drummer, a shredder, a vocalist and apparently a stage animal, too.
"Do you wanna catch them all?!"
"Yeaah."
"That was kinda shitty. DO YOU WANNA CATCH THEM ALL?!!!"
Seriously speaking, this is beyond awesome. A bunch of youtuber buddies, turned collab musicians, turned friends, turned into a tour band, more tight and energetic on stage than most "real" bands.
I like Your comment xd
Man, the band is all on point and they're good in their instruments, but Leo is such a badass 🔥🔥
I know, these dudes played tighter than most touring bands
Viking death metal.
Never thought I'd EVER see a covers-only performance at Wacken! Lmao. Love it though
Whaaat, i found this guy when he has nothing, only covers on UA-cam, now what a fucking crack! He got everything! Legendary
Leoooooo!!! yes!!!! Long live Frog Leap Studios!
As soon as the world gets healthy, I will see them on tour
And Steel Panther.
Thank you wacken for putting this genius on your set
No one is commenting Truls? That man is a machine! 😎
Had to drag my friends there and they all loved it
Audience was a bit slow but hey it was 2 am and the last day, we were a little tired
Please invite him back sometime soon
I'm so glad they kept the Africa outro, it was an inspired creation of metal and is EPIC.
And finally Leo did it...🤘🤘
I had no idea what to expect when I clicked the video. They had me on the first track.
I refuse to disrespect this awesomeness by watching on my phone, so I'll be watching on the surround sound later
💪😝🤘
Watching this on my puter hooked up to a Marantz Model 1070 Amp (1977) and Philips 22AH487 speakers (1978) 💕💕💕
@@corneliusantonius3108 Dude, they're sick AF, I'm firing it up LOUD Sunday night 😝🤘
Sweet setup too BTW 💪
@@daniel_alan_music6583 thanks bro
Goosebumps on a live recording on a lossy format like UA-cam.. This is a first for me. Keep Shredding, Frog Leap forever..
Anyone who doesn’t want to see the original songs ruined picked apart and put back together in a heading metal shredding death metal screaming and heavy gutair riffs kind way feel free to leave at anytime but I’m digging this so much.
Crowd surfing and singing to killing in the name of was epic
That drummer is absolutely my new favorite drummer

I'm sure Dime and Vinny were looking down, smiling, and Headbanging right along with everyone else.
Ways better than the actual Pantera
@@Meim32008 Having actually seen Pantera live, I disagree
and dont need be nazi like Anselmo
Never heard of these guys. Came across my feed and glad it did. Excellent
Me too.
Me thrice.
Check out their channel on UA-cam they have been doing awesome covers for a few years now
@@metvelle will do that thanks
Frog Leap Studios is his Yt channel

Metal AF!
head bang shuffel
Rabea killed the drum btw. He is really talented with every
instruments
Bea's a freak, man. Absolute freak.
Leo's grumpy voice sounds pretty much like Powerman 5000's Spider One... So COOL!
Monsters, awesomeness here
One of my top 3 shows at Wacken last year, it was absolutely amazing considering it was the last show of the festival
Indeed
What are the other 2 ?
@@Alecord For me the other two gigs was Avatar and Bloodywood.
As if Leo wasn't talented enough he gathered all of these crazy talented individuals together and put on a hell of show. Even though the crowd didn't seem like they were getting into it too much it gave me goosebumps at times just watching this video
I love that the extra bit after the Africa cover was so good that it gets played live.
Love that multitalented Drummer, he replace everyone with a grin.... absolutly amazing
It's me bro tnks 👍
@Truls Haugen best man ever
Every song sounds better when played in the style of metal \m/
hahaha great! the guitarist and the drummer exchange instruments with each other and enjoying it to the fullest !!
This is called as entertainment. I love death metal, heavy metal, rock, and love songs. Depends upon my soul.
That's why rock is my fave! So many styles to suit my mood! You rock! That's what I say when people ask me why I like rock so much. Killer reply. Take care
The Africa Outro is so damn badass!!!
Wasn't aware Leo had a live band. This is badass!
Thanks for the stream Wacken, and congrats to Frog Leap awesome performance
Love it!! Been watching Leo on UA-cam since the early days, it's been amazing watching his journey \m/

It was awsome and i found myself in the first line back :)
Hope we will see frog leap on Wacken again.
Rain or shine greats from germany
Rain or shine, one day we will gather at the Holy Ground again🤘
It was another great experience to be at a concert with these fantastically talented musicians, the same set list in Stavanger 6 March 2020 before all concerts were postponed. See you later:-)
I've been listening to Ghostbusters and Eye of The Tiger ever since I was a little boy. Now I'm 18 years old.
Only a true artist makes the metal community jump with a song of electronic music and Pokémon ... Leo is a fucking genius!
God damn amazing drummer crazy to see him play and sing so well and god damn are they good live
Best New Level cover out there
Thumbs up for that great director. It catches the awesomeness of Leos performance 🤘
THX ;)
I don't know, how many people stands at Wacken but dude, million or more people sing in unison "Hello" by Adele it's so hilarious hahaha
A very special thanks to the band at this gig. Rhythm section, tighter than a duck. And the second guitar player, another genius..
A pantera cover band fronted by Leo and with Bea on guitar would make it as Wacken headliners !
The drummer had a excellent night....That Pantera song was done epically.
Listening to this makes me feel good. And can we get some love for the line 6 helix killing it with tones!
This amazing band incorporates all the best things the heavy metal music can offer.
I was there!!! Amazing concert, last night in wacken!!
Ich war echt tot nach den 7 Tagen Wacken...
Leo als letzter Act musste sich trotzdem noch gegönnt werden!
War ne mega Show!
Covers at other level. 🤘🔥🤘 Dioooos!!!
what kind of madman opens with the ghostbusters theme
I will always regret going back to my tent to sleep instead of catching this gig😭😭😭😂
Same man, same...
I just stood in the crowd. Dead af. It was more like keep standing and don't fall asleep after 7 days of party than enjoying the show. But still enjoyed it.
one of the best rock bands here even if they do covers of songs !
This Band kick ass!
It's amazing how reserved the audience is, compared to the seventies. We just used to let go. Gig's were safe havens of individuality..
He's the real life Nathan Explosion. He has to make everything metal.
Leo ist ein Genie
Leo's voice is amazing live. 😁😁
Fy FAEN eg savne festival !!!! å Fy FAEN eg savne å se Leo og gjengen live
So cool! I wish i could be there! 💔 Leo and Rabea really rocks! singing and drumming mr. drummer - its kind of magic!🤘🔥
Fav band of all time frog leap studio. They don't just do cover.they are the original 😊
Leo gives cover bands hope
This was a great show!!! You guys rocked it Leo. You put together a great band topping it off with one of the best guitarist on You Tube. Bravo
Always loved Leo +++ his MANY "Associates" .... Yes , MANY !!! Great show , Brother !!!
A new level was the best. just closed my eyez and PANTERA WAS THERE %100
Not bad for an internet phenomenon to make it to Wacken. Saw them in 2023: great show!
loved it!!!!! plz come back this time on a main stage...you rocked the f out of it
holy crap....the audio quality for Africa is AMAZING. thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!
