That is so outstanding that they gave that kid a shot. One more reason to love Machine Head. Metal bands get such a bad reputation, and it's mostly unfounded. They are genuinely nice people who love their fan-bases. \M/
You have to respect Machine Head for letting a fan play with them. This is a small thing to them but for any fan it is a one of a kind experience and memory of which will last for years. Man, these guys are rally cool :D
This is why Machine Head is my favorite band after Rush, they just have such a rapport with their fans that only a select few groups share. I think that's why my favorite bands are Rush, MH, Tool, deftones, Iced Earth, and groups that have a tight-knit community of die hard fans. Cheers everyone, and if you live in Cali I hope to see you at the Regent in LA Feb 20th for an evening with Machine Head!
This is why machine head rocks. They genuinely care about their fans, and this isn't the first time they've done something like this. Way to go Rob and co.
was at this show and he did a really good job playing a really hard song. this goes to show that Robb Flynn is a good guy letting a fan jamming with them
Rob Flynn is actually a lot shorter than he looks (For Reference) I saw them live and Rob can't be taller than 5'7 himself, kid is still tall for 13 though haha!
i think it is amazing that a huge band will allow a 13 year old to play on stage with them now how many bands do you know will allow this? that kid has a talent and should follow his talent! screw the people who disagree !!!!!
that Kid can fucking play!!...and Big Props to Machine Head, no other band would let some random kid come up with them and jam without knowing if he has chops or not..that was Awesome, had the crowd awestruck
@Metalhead2381 Great Attitude Bro! Dont let the kids at school get to you. You did an Awesome job. All the websites that covered this and the 46000 + views prove it! Looking forward to seeing the interview with band!
The lyrics of the song are actually directed toward a person online named Aesthetics of Hate who made an extremely hate-filled rant toward Dimebag Darrel, who was shot and killed on-stage. The guy essentially said how glad he was that the guy was dead and is pretty much the worst humanity has to offer. Don't discount a band without researching them, especially if they're the best band in the world.
Goddamn I love the metal community...much like healthcare..(which I work in both) nothing but love, respect and admiration for all-- age, gender, sex, preferance of other genres or modalities, tats or not..............I LOVE YOU ALL!!!
This kid is like my best friend. I've been talking to him for over a year now and he's one of the coolest guys I've met. By the way guys, here's an update on Anthony. He's probably gonna play with Machine Head AGAIN! He's gonna do Halo. He's been working his ass off on playing Halo perfect.
That was amazing! I dreamed of that a million times as a guitar player. Who knew that once in a while it actually happens. Maybe next time Black Label Society is in town, I'll bring a sign asking Zakk if I can come up and play a song. ha ha haaa
@TheExperimentalFreak very good to hear! Def try and listen to old stuff to get you into it like Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath. and stuff like Machinehead and Metallica!

Lucky kid, he did a great job, I would of been shitting myself haha
This is probably going to be the fondest memory of this kid's childhood. Something to tell the grandkids one day, and then show them the video.
Damn man that's a fucking hard song to play live with Machine Head fuck.... Gotta give the kid props... Damn
Wow I was not expecting that kid to rip out that solo and hang like that. When he started that solo and the crowd cheered I got instant goosebumps.
Pretty damn amazing for a 13 year old kid. I'd never get this chance, hahah
Lulz.
Man, sure, according to your userpic you don`t even have fingers! But the kid is good, true!
Really cool of this guy to let rob Flynn on stage he's awesome
This is the inherent difference between metal and everything else
Not really, a ton of bands do this.
foo fighters are metal?
UN FUCKING REAL!!!!! I was smiling the whole way thorugh this!
This is one of my all-time favorite live videos, amazing band, awesome people.
That was really cool that MH did that for the kid.
+Jonathan Croce Yeah, and after the song, they literally pushed him off the stage...

Robb has so much energy without his guitar :P It's fun too see
Total KICK ASS! FUCK YES! MACHINE FUKIN HEAD!! Very nicely done!
still watching this video after 5 years time, very amazing
AWESOME!! It's cool that he got to play Robb's guitar
Once again, Rob Flynn and Machine Head are showing how much their fans mean to them. Great job by Anthony as well, lots of respect :D
got the chills haha
I was at this show. It was a really special moment. The kid rocked.
This is why machine head rocks. They genuinely care about their fans, and this isn't the first time they've done something like this. Way to go Rob and co.
that was positively amazing. The kid played great and it's just fuckin awesome that MachineHead would do that for him/
I was at this amazing show. This was THE coolest things I have ever seen a band do. Leave it to MH to be the ones to do it. Awesome!
Didn't expect that kid to nail the lead parts like he did - what a demon!!
was at this show and he did a really good job playing a really hard song. this goes to show that Robb Flynn is a good guy letting a fan jamming with them
this will propel him into guitar level WIZARD
The award of overpowered awesomeness goes to this kid
Metal Heads, i think we just found our next Dimebag!
He looks more like 16. He's too tall for 13.
I was 5'10 when I was 13. Looks can be deceiving :)
Rob Flynn is actually a lot shorter than he looks (For Reference) I saw them live and Rob can't be taller than 5'7 himself, kid is still tall for 13 though haha!
lol I tried looking up Robs height but couldnt find it. You are right though, that is still tall for a 13 year old lol I love new fun facts :D
I was 6'4" at 13 man ! My son's 10 and 5' 4"already ; ) .
I just saw this kid my biological dad cuts this kids dad's hair, the guy on stage is Anthony i just hung out with him and his brother and yeah he's 16
i think it is amazing that a huge band will allow a 13 year old to play on stage with them
now how many bands do you know will allow this?
that kid has a talent and should follow his talent!
screw the people who disagree !!!!!
If that's not Rob's kid that he brought on stage... I hope that's how he raises any future children, cause that's parenting 101+9,000 right there
Machine head are such good dudes. I watched them play in 07 when they went on tour with Lamb of God and Gojira. It was such a good show.
badass. this kid killed it
that Kid can fucking play!!...and Big Props to Machine Head, no other band would let some random kid come up with them and jam without knowing if he has chops or not..that was Awesome, had the crowd awestruck
Surprisingly good for a 13 year-old dude. My faith in mankind and Metal prosperity will remain alive for years after this.
this poor kid is going to have unrealistic expectations for band mates. that was pretty cool to let him on stage to play with them.
Holy shit.....this isnt an easy song on guitar. This kids shreds. Killed it
It was the best day of this kids life! Well Done Anthony!!
It's awesome to see Anthony doing something like this!!! I sit next to him in english class.
if i was that kid i would shit my pants cause machine is one of the reasons i play guitar
This brought such a big smile to my face!
Anyone else see phill get denied of a high five at the end
I don't know how many times I have watched this video! Fucking awesome! Machine Fuckin Head!! \m/
Now that's talent \m/
THIS IS UNBELIEVABLE!
how fucking awesome is that??? killer job kid!!!
This is so cool man......This kid needs to start a band hahaha..
Haha, that is awesome! That is a story that you can tell for the rest of your life.
a whole new level of epic has just been defined!
That kid plays so well for a thirteen year old so much respect!!!!!!!
That's one of the hardest songs ever written two thumbs up for the kid
Holy fucking shit. All I can say is respect, both to the band and the kid.
This is why metal RULES THE WORLD \m/ \m/
@Metalhead2381 Great Attitude Bro! Dont let the kids at school get to you. You did an Awesome job. All the websites that covered this and the 46000 + views prove it! Looking forward to seeing the interview with band!
Machine Head - Aesthetics of Hate (live @ Tampere, Finland), The Ultimate fan experience! Which one played it better?
I know this isn't the focus of the video, but I find it amazing that Dave can keep up with fans playing when they ALWAYS seem to go too fast.
that was epic. more proof, metal fans are the best.
This kid... He has a bright future that awaits him :D xP
I go to high school with him! he told me about this and i found this video.. this is awesome!!! I eat lunch with him everyday haha
The lyrics of the song are actually directed toward a person online named Aesthetics of Hate who made an extremely hate-filled rant toward Dimebag Darrel, who was shot and killed on-stage. The guy essentially said how glad he was that the guy was dead and is pretty much the worst humanity has to offer. Don't discount a band without researching them, especially if they're the best band in the world.
Gives me chills. Lucky kid! Got skills
That's pretty special.
I was there, about one level above the person who recorded this. The kid was freakin' amazing!
Machine Head - You are the best
I don't even like metal, but this is awesome!
Goddamn I love the metal community...much like healthcare..(which I work in both) nothing but love, respect and admiration for all-- age, gender, sex, preferance of other genres or modalities, tats or not..............I LOVE YOU ALL!!!
Enjoyed the video :)
That is so badass.
Machine Head just announced a date in Dublin, might bring a sign and try this myself!
One of the tallest 13 yr olds I've seen
he has a thrash band here in buffalo called Armageddon
Holy fuckin shit that was just awesome!
Robb is an absolute legend
That shit was just utterly amazing. He fuckin killed it!! Awesome
That kid fuckin' nailed that shit! I'm not really a fan of metal but Hell, I think it might be growing on me
I would seriously kill to be in his place man , thats so fucking awesome!
Great job kid, nice camera work too!
I've always dreamed of having a band let me do this haha, THAT'S FUCKING SICK! WAY TO GO!! \m/
Nice playing dude!
This is quite possibly the coolest thing to happen to a 13 year old.
Que pasada me encanta como toca la guitarra el chaval muy bueno 🙏🙏
Machine Head are the best!!!
YES! This is why I love metal!
This kid is like my best friend. I've been talking to him for over a year now and he's one of the coolest guys I've met. By the way guys, here's an update on Anthony. He's probably gonna play with Machine Head AGAIN! He's gonna do Halo. He's been working his ass off on playing Halo perfect.
wow , kid is pretty good!
The kid was unreal!
Got goose bumps watching this. Kid has got some balls
That was amazing! I dreamed of that a million times as a guitar player. Who knew that once in a while it actually happens. Maybe next time Black Label Society is in town, I'll bring a sign asking Zakk if I can come up and play a song. ha ha haaa
God bless Machine Head and 1080p cameras.
Completely awesome!
I don't know Anthony, but he has a lot of talent, and... A good opening sentence: "Hi, I'm Anthony and I played with Machine Head once".
This is who they are...
Long Live Machine Head \m/
Lucky bastard! But he does deserve it since he's got the skills and he's only 13. Badass 13 year old.
unbelievable, held his nerve too what a legend
Straight up ignored Phil and Adam at the end lol
i gotta give this kid props! Man if only they did this with drums!!!!!!
@TheExperimentalFreak very good to hear! Def try and listen to old stuff to get you into it like Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath. and stuff like Machinehead and Metallica!
Holy shit that's sick dude respect!!
Love how after the solo he gets into cos he knows he just smashed it.
And with his own guitar! That's a fucking huge extra.
This is the Metal Family !!!!!
