make no mistake folks,this isnt as easy as it looks....
there is easily 100 years of high end,infinitely practiced,very advanced, musically educated experience in that room.
yes,anyone can do it if they put in the decades it inevitably takes to do it this well.
ive been at it 3 and a half decades,this was spectacular
HOLY F'king Cr@p! How have I missed this one?!?!? You guys really outdid yourselves on this one! Spectacular execution on all fronts.
Agreed!!
way too much much talent in this room! Thanks for keeping musicianship alive!
Absolutely awesome! Pleasantly surprised to see you all covering it. Love that old Scorpions.
And, Andy G freaking killed those leads! Duly impressed gang!
Forgot to note the solid vocals! Screams sound great!
I love this not just because it's an amazing cover, but also because they're having so much fun.
Dang! Even got the tone down!
I'm loving this so SO much!
How on earth could anyone give you guys a thumbs down???? You’re awesome!
Jealous people
Musicianship is awesome yet Nothing matches Klaus Meine
That dude totally nailed it. :-)
yeah she's a sweet bass player
I think my favorite part of watching these videos is just watching a bunch of nerdy middle-age folks like myself rocking out to some classic rock and metal. Just proves that ANYONE can play rock and metal if you truly love it.
I watched this, read your comment and then attempted to play the opening solo of this. I can confirm that no, anyone cannot play rock and metal...or at least not without a hell of a lot more practice than I'm ever likely to do!
Yeah, but realize its our generation that made metal what it was in the first place. Boomers pioneered the genre and we Gen X er's perfected it. I have been playing metal of some type or another since I was 12 or 13 and at 45 years old I can still play just as hard and fast as I always have, I just have more gray hair now, LOL.
Remember, they weren't nerdy and middle aged when this music was new.
no,theres much more at play.there is easily 100 years high end,highly musically educated experience in that room.
yes,anyone can do it if they put in the decades it inevitably takes to do it this well.
ive been at it 3 and a half decades,this was spectacular
Although after all, music is best done by 16-20-year olds who don't really know what they're doing and just go by pure feeling (and some skill as to not make it sound disastrous). And by best I mean which invokes the most feelings in the listener.
So Cool! I was immediately impressed when this started. But when then band really kicked in at 0:42 till the very end, I could not believe how good this is!
Wow, just awesome. Brilliant song, brilliant cover. Probably the best cover of this song I've ever heard, and that includes Yngwie Malmsteen's and Alex Skolnick's versions.
Took me about 2 months just to learn the intro solo - and that was with Uli's tutorial video to guide me. Can imagine how much dedication needed by the whole band to nail every part of the complete song as perfectly as this, including the great vocals.
Thanks Kevin - this was hard!
@@AndyGrazianoNYC wouldn't be Uli if it wasn't, he doesn't do easy 😁. Still an amazing player. Great job 👍
You’re right…can’t imagine any better
Make no mistake. Not everyone can do what these guys do, just because you like it enough. There is a lot of talent involved. Which goes to show that you need more than talent to make it big. Most of what you here on the radio doesn't have this much talent.
Wow!. I´m speechless. Well done.
Uli would be proud! Spot on performance. Only need to perfect being able to play this effortless like Roth! He is soooooo bad ass in the original.
Fantastic guys. All of you are amazing !!!
One of my all time favorite songs. Love this!
Nailed it. One of my favorite songs to name with a drummer on

I came here as a guitarist, and was rightfully impressed, no blown away by the lead guitar
on here. Some well deserved praise going that way for sure. The rest of the players aught
to have equal praise as well. Vocals were fantastic. Bass, drums, and 2nd guitar were great!
I thoroughly enjoyed this.
