I don’t hear any of it. This is 100% raw. But his dad is probably rich. How else do you land a gig at standford.

    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. 😎

      @@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.

    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.

      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 love the arrangement of some of my favorite rock songs ever! I grew up during the 70's and 80's and so these songs are part of the soundtrack of my life. These cats (I'm a jazz musician, couldn't help it 😀) are the real deal. The phrasing of each song through their interpretation still rang very true to the original but they definently made it their own as well. I wish I would have come across this video when it was recorded and not 7 years later. These young musician are men now. I have to find out if they're still in this most magnificent creative process called music. I remember when I was a teen, a DJ in San Jose, CA on a show called Sunday Morning Jazz would say this as he was signing off. "Remember! Music is cool, but live music is way cooler!" Very cool indeed!
