I've realized that it can't die. Humans are building a palace that will never be finished. Each generation will take the contributions of the previous and build on them. So the project will never be completed as long as there are humans to continue building the structure. Now, will the music in a couple generations time impress us? Or will it be akin to sheer noise to our delicate ears? Who knows....

It's a switch you need to turn in your head. Also, look just above the crowd, that keeps the nerves in check. Confidence comes later after you get used to it. ;-)
I was born in '67 and in my day there was a divide between parents and children over music. "Turn that sh$# down!". I'm just proud that my generations music is so timeless. It feels good seeing kids wearing AC/DC stuff and rocking to our classics and being able to share my knowledge of some relatively forgotten bands with my kids.
They are following our music because three quarters of what’s out there today is not that great…. At some point music can only evolve so far and I think we are there now…. By the way I’m not a prude, I love Opera, Rock, R&B , Pop, country and Spirituals…. So when I say much of music today is not great I mean it as an all round connoisseur. 😎
@@TheLocoUnion music today is amazing, better than any generation due to the accesibility of smaller artists, most radio music is today is bad tho u got a point.
@@pimpmasterfuture9400 The young artists today are really talented. I just feel like they aren’t given good writing or good songs to work with. I listen to some kids out there , who I never knew could really put out, for one reason or another, finally do so, with gusto. I’m in awe at their capabilities. For instance the Hit musical Hamilton is amazing. I wish more people would do work of this nature today. Well thought out… well delivered… interesting sounds and some throwback to the 60’s. This is something I can get into.
My dad was ww2 marine vet.. When i played AC/DC he told me "it sounds like a bunch of damn Japs". What ever that meant.. He grew up dancing the jitterbug and listening to Glen Miller
Yeah around the same age; both my parents thought their opinion on AC/DC counted for something, lol. Well guess what - turns out I had an ear for a band that is now legendary, and they clearly didn't know sh!t 😆
Actually they had several speed ups and slow downs. But that all good , true timing only comes with many years of performance , and practice. And they still have many years to go ...
@@JustinOhio Average? Right and what did you do at the age of 10-12 yrs old? If they do it right these kids can be anything they want. Lots of practice to get this "average".
@@NE.RORoRo mmmmmm electronic drums are fun to play, is that ok to say that. Drumming for over 40 years I'd say playing electronic has a far easier way of playing than an a acoustic kit. An acoustic kit requires more feel and touch. Well I hope that helped you ,if it didn't well go back to having an awesome day.
Very Clever Comment!! Wow, do we still have pixie sticks? Thanks for the 50+ yr old memory! After enjoying the tasty sugar, we sucked on the paper, and then rolled it into pellets, to throw at each other. Innocent fun.
@@reginaschellhaas1395, speaking of sucking on paper, those of us who are old enough remember the candy cigarettes. Made with just enough powdered sugar rolled into the paper that you could actually puff on them and they'd blow smoke! If you do an image search on [Carter Helm Margo Nahas] you'll find a photo of the little kid who rose to fame as the smoking angel on the cover of Van Halen's 1984. Here on UA-cam you can find Margo tell the story. Little cherub Carter was actually given packs of "cigs". Chocolate. With the "smoke". It was hilarious back in the day. But not so funny as of one week ago. So maybe I should be more careful with my Pixie Stix jokes. But if I ever do find them again, I will be sure to buy some just for old tyme's sake. And yeah, mainlining Capri Sun might be a little extreme too. You might want to work up on that by starting with a slow IV cs-drip.
The guitarist, especially near the end, looked so natural n cool demeanor...and jammed like it was old hats. I'm 48 and grew up around my uncle's and this music fortunately. That guitarist acted and WAS just like the old school best. It's like he was reincarnated n just continuing where he left off in the last life. Jamming. Just looked so natural, like it had been many years

They ended up opening a cannabis shop. They have a store near campus and another in Santa Monica. The bass player tried out for american idol san diego but got rejected.
Yeah, they can play, no doubt, but do you know how hard it is to put together a medley? To come up with the transitions between songs? Let alone make it work live? This is art.
Odds are one or more of their parents is in a band and taught them how to play, the medley and in general as a band. I give them full credit and respect for their talent too! 👍
They are shit so shit In our year 6 talent show we had many musical talented kids One of them is travelling countries because of her violin I am 6 years in guitar and piano Other kids good singer and guitar This is shit
Someone commented “looks like a retirement home field trip” and “too bad they played for a retirement home”. If so, then then these talented young musicians are playing to the original audience, by performing covers of the great music that these “old retired people” listened to in their youth!! We might be old/retired, but “our” music is also many decades old, and still fabulous. TNT by AC/DC was released in 1976. The next song was written by Neil Young, who was born in 1945 = 69 yrs old in 2014. If you respect this music, and the “old” musicians, then please respect their equally “old” fans, who supported their work, back in the day. The last song, by Led Zeppelin, was released in 1971, nearly half a century ago....and it is still great. My total respect to these talented young men.
You nailed it bro!! These kids are great!! Us “old folk!” We’re so lucky to have grown up in the times when Led Zep, Black Sabbath, AC/DC just to name a few, were still in the recording studios!! I hope these kids are still jammin somewhere!! 🤘😎💨
yes! you nailed it. On a side note, I love it when newer artists perform with older artists. In the 90's, Neil Young performed Rockin' in the Free World with Pearl Jam on the MTV music awards. Still Rockin!

These young kids have more talent than most music entertainers these days! No auto tune..! Real music Real talent Real instrument 🎻 No computer sound Modern music take note 📝......
Well yeah, that's because everyone listens to mainstream junk... These kids are average musicians directly on par for the age that they are. Everyone else is just used to hearing such junk that when they hear something even average they think it's amazing.
I've played in bands for over 40 years and I can honestly say you guys are great. Work hard individually on your instruments, when you get together work hard on the tunes and your stage show and above all, have fun with it. I liked it that everyone sings and you had harmonies. Keep rockin' dudes. You look like you're all good friends so that's a huge plus. Keep it real and never forget where you came from.
Rock & Roll will never DIE With young talent like these boys playing them U KNOCKED IT OUT OF THE PARK THE ROCK GODS ARE SMILING the rest of us in AAHHHH😄🌀🌋💥💯🌟✨🤯
These kids are blood talented.. Drew and Dave are talking about how special their bassist, it's hard to play bass and try and sing at the same time, he mastered it perfectly! The Rest of the Band also keeps up with the changes! the backing vocals provided by the drummer and guitarist are incredible! very talented kids!
The singer really has a lot of crowd appeal. I think these kids will go far. I'm watching this kid and I'm losing my mind. He's not like a kid, but he's a real person doing real stuff out there. He's got a very nice voice and he can play up a crowd. Sorry but he is amazing to me. They all are they seem to have such confidence and style about them.
Old rocker souls reincarnated IMHO. Awesome. I'll be looking into them to see how it's gone. Saw theres an Americas Got Talent w them from just a year ago...
Damn, is all I can say. Parenting done right 👍🏻I freaking LOVE TNT so they had me from the get go 🤘🏻😎 these guys have serious potential. I hope they stick with it.
I love these kids having just watched this for the first time. Best part to me as a lifelong pro musician is that they played the great music from my generation when those songs were brand new! Love it when the youngsters remember the classics without any computer gimmicks.
Dead Crowd, these kids kicked Rock and Roll and I was jammin out in my living room. Come on People . I cannot wait to see what they do in the future. Awesome.
Dropping a medley! What!!! Awesome! These kids, musicians, are unbelievable! Torch bearers. Loved it. Rock and roll is forever. Aloha my fellow rockers!!
Well done. I love how you added your own twist to the songs as well as your selections. This shows true talent you guys can only get tighter as a group. and Hey,,,,, Most of all have fun, Don't ever be afraid to laugh at yourselves, Humility is the path to happiness.
Please,please, if you kids ever get in disagreements, please, don’t break up the band, you kids are incredible awesome, and you will become a great band keep it up!
Splendid Mendax how did I criticize or say that they were bad? I think they're off to a fantastic start and will get much better as they keep after it. they are very good.
united nations are just evil NAZIs i won't play por them or the white house or the reptile queen.... they all the same s.... check the alcyon pleiades videos, no kidding !!!
They really arranged a great medley of songs. The changes are nearly flawless. I tell bands i consult to try fitting a medley like this into their live shows and its tough!
They just released and EP a few days ago. The singers voice has changed quite a bit. I think these guys have a bright future ahead of them. It's awesome seeing a band at such a young age producing original content.
I just stumbled on to this video a few minutes ago and was the same age as these young men when I started playing drums in a number of bands and now retired still play! Who would have ever thought ' Rock and Roll Will Never Die "! Job well done guys your on your way!
These kids are awesome! I've been playing bass and singing for 55 years and believe me I know talent when I see it. I hope they're still together and killing it.
They are...and they have values as strong as their talent. "Every dollar from WJM’s performances has gone to support children’s charities, including the UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital, Second Harvest Food Bank, Camp Okizu, the Bridge School, Live in Peace, and St. Baldrick’s Foundation. Over the past few years, WJM has taken their musical activism to crowds at the United Nations, AT&T Park, Stanford Maples Pavilion and Burning Man." “Social activism is about acting on what you believe in and being a part of something bigger than just yourself.”
These kids were fantastic. I've been a professional musician for ovwr most of my adult life and I can tell you with certainty that these kids have a commitment to what they are doing. The discipline and the time dedicated to hours upon hours of individual and group practice/rehearsals is alone enormous. Not to mention putting together a medley the order, the key changes/modulations/rhythms is an enormous undertaking. Even if some adults helped compose the medley, it took hours of dedication by each of the members to learn and master their parts and commit them to memory. All of this from 10-13 year olds ! It takes a different mindset to pull of something like this. These kids hopefully continued their music careers. Bravo !
How can u dislike this ??? ... they're sixth graders. The bass player has an outstanding voice ... but he may still have to go through his "Peter Brady" voice change ... well done , guys.
I'm 54 and a former Band Mom and my son is now 36 and has his own band and I'm so glad to see these kids playing just like my son and his friends did when they were youngsters... He's gone to college and studied Music and Audio and Video Production now, it's awesome ✌️
I LOVE THIS!!! Did anyone tell the kid on bass with the incredibly in tune voice, how hard it is to play bass and sing? They're fantastic!!! Ohhhhhh yeah, background vocals!!!! LOVE IT!!!
As a 59 year old who grew up on this music and in this area, so glad to see Rick is still alive and well. These kids are amazing!!!! I hope they stayed with music.
wow reminds me of me and my buds when we were young in jr high school ...we grew up playing music together ...even after high school .....and i still play now at 53 ...awesome seeing these boys keeping the dream alive man..
The timing and fate to bring these three boys together. It’s true great music artist are born. Some learn they have talent. These boys were born with it.
School is overrated. There will be managers and agents who finished school that will make their living on the talent and sweat of these young men. I agree with Joe Season that they will knock back plenty of puss. If they wish to sample cannabis when they are older, that will be fine. Otherwise stay off the dope!

I agree with you those boys are really good and I think they have big things ahead of them
Prince would've LOVED these kids.
Well yeah, that's because everyone listens to mainstream junk... These kids are average musicians directly on par for the age that they are. Everyone else is just used to hearing such junk that when they hear something even average they think it's amazing.
They're so good! I don't even know these kiddos and I'm so proud of them!! Well done, boys!!!
the kids in the audience probably don’t know how amazing this is
For real
I was damnnnnnnnnn
Yep no clue for sure
Kids? Mostly retired boomers
Performance is perfect, the backup voice, the choice of song, vocals confidence and they can played well. Awesome!
I've played in bands for over 40 years and I can honestly say you guys are great. Work hard individually on your instruments, when you get together work hard on the tunes and your stage show and above all, have fun with it. I liked it that everyone sings and you had harmonies. Keep rockin' dudes. You look like you're all good friends so that's a huge plus. Keep it real and never forget where you came from.
Barney Fike I hit like but it turned into a dislike...I liked a while back....so I
Iced again. I’m sorry Sir.
Rock & Roll will never DIE
With young talent like these boys playing them
U KNOCKED IT OUT OF THE PARK
THE ROCK GODS ARE SMILING
the rest of us in AAHHHH😄🌀🌋💥💯🌟✨🤯
These kids are blood talented.. Drew and Dave are talking about how special their bassist, it's hard to play bass and try and sing at the same time, he mastered it perfectly! The Rest of the Band also keeps up with the changes! the backing vocals provided by the drummer and guitarist are incredible! very talented kids!
The singer really has a lot of crowd appeal. I think these kids will go far. I'm watching this kid and I'm losing my mind. He's not like a kid, but he's a real person doing real stuff out there. He's got a very nice voice and he can play up a crowd. Sorry but he is amazing to me. They all are they seem to have such confidence and style about them.
Old rocker souls reincarnated IMHO. Awesome. I'll be looking into them to see how it's gone. Saw theres an Americas Got Talent w them from just a year ago...
@@awakeadventurer9198 sounds interesting I'd like to hear that
Damn, is all I can say. Parenting done right 👍🏻I freaking LOVE TNT so they had me from the get go 🤘🏻😎 these guys have serious potential. I hope they stick with it.
Perhaps they need to head over to AGT
Young man is playing Bass and Lead singer....that is REALLY hard to do! Great job guys!
Future Geddy Lee.. he just needs a keyboard and he'll be all set
very nice , its great seeing youngsters with a fondness to classic rock
I totally agree.
William Bledsoe Classic my arse IT WILL NEVER GET OLD
Wow all this from a sixth grade band! Incredible talent!
I'm glad this just popped up even tho it happened seven years ago.
Great performance guys!!!
I love these kids having just watched this for the first time. Best part to me as a lifelong pro musician is that they played the great music from my generation when those songs were brand new! Love it when the youngsters remember the classics without any computer gimmicks.
I was in a kid band way, way, way back in time and it was a blast. These kids are loving it and having fun. Rock on guys !!
Dead Crowd, these kids kicked Rock and Roll and I was jammin out in my living room. Come on People . I cannot wait to see what they do in the future. Awesome.
Holy shit that was good! Absolutely amazing how these boys took command of the stage and crowd. They are definitely destined for stardom! Loved it!
Dropping a medley! What!!! Awesome! These kids, musicians, are unbelievable! Torch bearers. Loved it. Rock and roll is forever. Aloha my fellow rockers!!
If I had my own record label I would sign these boys in a heartbeat.
as a 6th grader metal/rockhead, im stunned by the skill of these mate! Hat of from Ausie!
Im 59 and thought you guys did an insane job, Keep it up !
We gonna ignore that drummer?
Not at all he was bomb
@@GettingLostWithToy I agree. He is tight.
Yes lol
.......
He needs to stop letting his mom comb his hair.
Well done. I love how you added your own twist to the songs as well as your selections. This shows true talent you guys can only get tighter as a group. and Hey,,,,, Most of all have fun, Don't ever be afraid to laugh at yourselves, Humility is the path to happiness.
Please,please, if you kids ever get in disagreements, please, don’t break up the band, you kids are incredible awesome, and you will become a great band keep it up!
The lead singer/bass player has a great voice and a lot of showmanship! charisma
You go, guys!!!!!
Great Performance by 3 Young Men that Deserve going on America's Got Talent. Beautiful Performance.
I wish I had friends that want to start a band with me
Ghost girl ahuevo you have my friendship for do the band yes ;)
ghost girl
Put a paper on the bulletin board.... you’ll find the band....
Lol same
Same though
There was a band on every corner in Indiana in the 1960s and 1970s kids need to get it back
from an old rocker to you guys..... Outstanding job!
Steve buckskinner 54 These kids can rock.
Splendid Mendax
how did I criticize or say that they were bad? I think they're off to a fantastic start and will get much better as they keep after it. they are very good.
Splendid Mendax lol u idiot
united nations are just evil NAZIs i won't play por them or the white house or the reptile queen.... they all the same s.... check the alcyon pleiades videos, no kidding !!!
If they need a lead guitarist I'm always available
They really arranged a great medley of songs. The changes are nearly flawless. I tell bands i consult to try fitting a medley like this into their live shows and its tough!
This was an excellent performance and sound recording.
Very controlled performance by each member.
Lead singer vocals were clear.
Awesome job duders! That lead singer kid has some pipes! Very cool hope you're still rocking out.
be quiet
Their parents must have been so proud! way to go boys! 🔥 you're all killing it!
Once they hit puberty they'll sound harder. Keep kickin ass little bros.
They just released and EP a few days ago. The singers voice has changed quite a bit. I think these guys have a bright future ahead of them. It's awesome seeing a band at such a young age producing original content.
I was going to say the same thing. They're voices are their weakest part and it's not their fault. They just sound like kids. Puberty needed.
Rock out
Eccentric Detectorist's hbb
Eccentric Detectorist's they should be 17/18 now so I think the time has come
I just stumbled on to this video a few minutes ago and was the same age as these young men when I started playing drums in a number of bands and now retired still play! Who would have ever thought ' Rock and Roll Will Never Die "! Job well done guys your on your way!
It takes a ton of confidence and poise to walk out cold in front of a large crowd and kill it like that! Well done 👍🏻👍🏻
Why even play the rest of the basketball game after THAT!?!?!
What I was thinking.... the audience already got their entertainment
Word
Those six graders even had the Cheerleaders going. I could barely play the stereo at that age.
teejay Trujillo iiiii
These kids need a recording contract now! They give me such hope for our future!
their like 18 now
@@kaisskits2700 They would be a little older than I am now so most likely going on 21-22
These kids are awesome! I've been playing bass and singing for 55 years and believe me I know talent when I see it. I hope they're still together and killing it.
They are...and they have values as strong as their talent. "Every dollar from WJM’s performances has gone to support children’s charities, including the UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital, Second Harvest Food Bank, Camp Okizu, the Bridge School, Live in Peace, and St. Baldrick’s Foundation. Over the past few years, WJM has taken their musical activism to crowds at the United Nations, AT&T Park, Stanford Maples Pavilion and Burning Man."
“Social activism is about acting on what you believe in and being a part of something bigger than just yourself.”
Whatever became of these dudes? This was 8 years ago, would love an update. Very impressed!
You might try clicking on their UA-cam page logo below the video
Yeah…
Rumor has it ,their balls dropped changing the vocals....
Heard they are knockin' em down...
They now run a meth lab in Alabama.
Love the voice of the frontman. These kids were born to rock.
OMG!!! This kids voice is out of this WORLD. HOPE he did something with it!!! They are all good!!!
Oh my god this is so professional for a few 6th graders. SO MUCH TALENT and MUSICALITY!!
Keep at it guys!!! You all have some natural talent. Amazing voice for a young man that age.
Voices aren’t matured yet but the notes were correct, amazing performance.
Australian singer/songwriter Ben Lee?
@Lilly Sturgeon theyre not matured
Davidtm98 lmao there’s no such things as mature voices
Extra life yeah they're is you dumb? Puberty...
They’re just singin man
Well done, boys. Keep on ROCKIN!!!! I turned 71 a week ago and I'm still ROCKIN!!!!
Look at these awesome kids! Having the times of their lives. Love their smiles! Go WJM!!
6th grade?!! Amazing! They have a tighter sound than some pro bands!
Mark D Sager these sound better than the foo fighters? right
Synyzy _ foo fighters?? You're kidding me
Let's not get too ahead of yourselves now. Better than Foo Fighters? Smoke another one, LOL!
No way they are shit
Kxloux You’re high fr fr
These kids were fantastic. I've been a professional musician for ovwr most of my adult life and I can tell you with certainty that these kids have a commitment to what they are doing. The discipline and the time dedicated to hours upon hours of individual and group practice/rehearsals is alone enormous. Not to mention putting together a medley the order, the key changes/modulations/rhythms is an enormous undertaking. Even if some adults helped compose the medley, it took hours of dedication by each of the members to learn and master their parts and commit them to memory. All of this from 10-13 year olds !
It takes a different mindset to pull of something like this. These kids hopefully continued their music careers. Bravo !
you stink as a musician
You guys are terrific you guys will go very far into music business that's a given I wish you good luck NEVER give up on your dreams. Good luck guys
AH do i love that the lead singer plays bass, keep the bass alive man!! you guys rock
How can u dislike this ??? ... they're sixth graders. The bass player has an outstanding voice ... but he may still have to go through his "Peter Brady" voice change ... well done , guys.
The audience looks like a retirement home field trip is going on
dean jekic fr
haha so true
What if it was
The only people that can afford tickets to the games
That is the funniest comment on yt
I'm 54 and a former Band Mom and my son is now 36 and has his own band and I'm so glad to see these kids playing just like my son and his friends did when they were youngsters... He's gone to college and studied Music and Audio and Video Production now, it's awesome ✌️
this song was the first song I learned when I was a drummer, it's nice to see that he adds more to the song than there actually is.
There is the next AC/DC, Led Zeppelin. It’s awesome to see you kids playing the great classic rocks songs
ok.
FN AWESOME, So cool to see these young kids playing real music, and to bring the compilation of all those tunes, so cool.
Loving this lads! Drummer kept them on and the singer was absolutely on point. Guitars were amazing too. They must feel so proud of themselves
AWESOME job guys!!!!!!!! Keep on rockin in the free world!!!!!!!!!!
I like the choices in music that they sing and the fact that they pronounce the words with clarity.
Great stage presences-wow-they're going places!.
I LOVE THIS!!! Did anyone tell the kid on bass with the incredibly in tune voice, how hard it is to play bass and sing? They're fantastic!!! Ohhhhhh yeah, background vocals!!!! LOVE IT!!!
I'm an old Detroit radio guy and these kids kicked it out of the damn park. Rock on boys
Detroit Rocks !! Worked many of shows in Detroit… fox and the State Theater, St Andrews, Latin Quarter. In the late 80,s hell yea !!
What an ultimate rock out by these young men, bright futures ahead. Keep on it fellas!
INCREDIBLE, THEY ARE REALLY GOOD. ALREADY I AM YOUR FAN. GREETINGS FROM MEXICO.
Out of the mouths of babes...classic rock! Heartwarming and inspiring.
As a 59 year old who grew up on this music and in this area, so glad to see Rick is still alive and well. These kids are amazing!!!! I hope they stayed with music.
That was amazing! If i would have sang through that around that age my voice would have been cracking like crazy!!
Jack Black would be real Proud!
There is such an ancient thing called power stance
@@joshkw2328 now raise your goblet of rock!
wow reminds me of me and my buds when we were young in jr high school ...we grew up playing music together ...even after high school .....and i still play now at 53 ...awesome seeing these boys keeping the dream alive man..
The timing and fate to bring these three boys together. It’s true great music artist are born. Some learn they have talent. These boys were born with it.
Wow, modern rockstars. Awesome kids, awesome!
REALLY great boys keep it up finish school and stay away from drugs be safe
Or quit school and get a tour bus.
w13rdguy and have lots of chicks
School is overrated. There will be managers and agents who finished school that will make their living on the talent and sweat of these young men. I agree with Joe Season that they will knock back plenty of puss. If they wish to sample cannabis when they are older, that will be fine. Otherwise stay off the dope!
Bill Horton yep in a few years time, they will be saying to their parents see is overrated with all the stds they've caught lol!!!
Clifford Daniels Qs
I played guitar in high school. I didn't lose my virginity until I was well out of college and 24.
Now I just cry myself to sleep every night.

You are now officially an adult. Welcome.
PIlotrcm well ok then

Awesome Job. I bet the live audio was just as good. I love to see young kids playing classic hits and having fun doing it.
very Very Very well done guys. You rocked me..from across the ocean. Best of luck in your success going forward.
