Kiko, you are a big reason why Megadeth feels like a band again and not hired hands. And that is not only evident in your UA-cam content, but on the new Megadeth album. It feels cohesive. It has to be my favorite line-up since the 90's. Thank you.
@@outdoorsanimalsandmusic3014 Oh without a doubt. Just listening to the solos on We’ll be Back and it’s straight nasty guitar playing, less than .0001% of people that play guitar can play like that.
Please don't let those guys get into your head, Kiko....they've ruined many, many great channels with their BS. You're a great guy, and your channel is perfect just the way it is.
I've listened to megadeth from the beginning and I believe this is the BEST megadeth yet! Every member of the band just seem like super people. Keep rocking!
I think Kiko doing the on road videos was the first time anyone in Megadeth really took the time to do videos like the ones Kiko does. It also made it possible to get to know Kiko a bit better as a member of Megadeth.
Thank you, Kiko, for everything that you did for me as a guitar player. You are my inspiration in music. Good luck with your own stuff, Megadeth career and your channel!
Honestly Kiko, hearing you read the comments, I'll just say anything you choose to show us is awesome and appreciated. Ive never seen any bad content from you. Behind the scenes, your approach to music theory is among my favorite, just a massive fan of both you and your work!
Kiko I love your channel so much. Never stop! You and Dirk are INTEGRAL to the foundation of the band now. I hope you two are here until the end and never stop being yourselves. You have incredible support from all your fans. Kiko we are grateful everyday for the content you put out on the band!
Your an amazing inspirational musician, who has allowed the public to have an insight into your world.. I believe your one of the first to have done this... If I recall correctly a lot of musicians started similar channels through out the pandemic. Kiko your the best, and I thank you, it is a privilege to be able to join you in your journey..
Hey kiko I was the Megadeth and FFDP show at Jones beach in Long Island last week. It was one of the best concert experiences ever for me. I snuck into the pit and the show sounded amazing. I had on my denim jacket with patches all over it and I kept holding my sleeve up when I put my hands in the air so that nobody would see I had no wristband haha. At the end of the show a woman who caught Dave’s wrist band gave it to me. I have it with me in my college dorm and plan on taking it with me every time I go home and come back. Thanks so much for an awesome show
KIKIO, you're a high skilled musician playing with a legend , Dave MUSTAINE, in the best Thrash/Metal band ! You share what we don't know : rehersal, backstage, masterclasses, jam session, gig ... THX ! I wish you the best in Megadeth and for your family !! Keep sharing and playing so well !
You talked very briefly about the "music business" in this video, would love to get some videos dedicated to the business side of being a musician in a big band. For example, how does your endorsement deal with Ibanez work? How do you do your taxes? How do you keep track of what you can and can not write off as business expenses? I think a lot of people would find the business side interesting.
@@kikoloureiroofficial ONE big problem is......you don't want to break all the hearts of the dreamers out there, who think the Music Biz is great and being in a gilded cage is great etc. But the reality of touring and being on major labels, etc etc.....is usually pretty ugly. (anywhere lots of money is involved, it gets ugly, sigh.) I TELL ALL YOUNG ARTISTS that "the entire industry is corrupt in every single way and more , and all our fave bands had to pay radio stations to play their songs....and Fox News buys 50,000 copies of Sean Hannity's books to fake them on the Best Sellers.....and EVERYTHING IS FAKE"..........but then I tell them to just do the OPPOSITE of all the corrupt traditions. EX: I make great money as an Outsider Musician who plays outside, every single day and night, anywhere there are people! (NYC subways! Any beach with tourists!) I'm my own boss, I can play for 3 hours or 15 if I want, and strangers never stop handing me money! I've eliminted 100% of the problems with the music biz, and it's infinitely better than being a rock star. EX: total strangers have come up to me doing my Guitar Sorcery on sidewalks, and they smoke me up (grass)....WHILE I'M PLAYING!! (THey hold the joint to my mouth!) Pink Floyd and Led Zep never got anything like that! THE CATCH is there's a large "Learning Curve" for playing outdoors. You have to problem solve a bunch, until you get it all down. (EX: you must have a funny sign, cuz that will always get you extra tips!)
Mentioning to subscribe to the channel actually works FYI. You said it, and noticed i somehow have not been subscribed after watching your videos for years lol
You guys keep the Deth fresh and ready for the new gen of fans. I used to get pissed off with Dave changing bandmates every album. You never knew what kind of sound you would get album to album. But if not for change We may never have heard Chris, Marty, Nick or you guys. Almost 40 yrs. and still great music 🤘
Everything you post is great content. You're a natural, not just with the guitar. It's great to see behind the scenes at venues and your rehearsals etc. This footage from a day off is very cool too. Thank you!
Que placer ver a dos elementos de Megadeth que están haciendo historia, para mi, hacerme olvidar los antiguos elementos que muchos añoran y hacer que Megadeth suene mas fresco y mas vigente que nunca, saludos desde México!!!
Really cool how you incorporate the live shots too after answering the questions. Was a pleasure meeting you in austin tx, thank ya'll for coming out to the album signing!
Awesome!! My dad lives about a mile from Turtle Bay. I worked in the UA-cam building when it was Gap HQ. Trivia. DHL Worldwide Express HQ used to be on Cherry in San Bruno. This was filmed after the Shoreline show near Google HQ on August 23.
Kiko!!!! You are by far one of my favorite heavy metal guitarists ever. Love the fact that you are in 1 of my fav bands of all time Megadeth, keep going strong and bringing out them nasty riffs & solos!. Love you man.
Ytube picks on everyone, you have a great channel 👍 we all appreciate very much. Like Dirk said don't quit...Enjoy seeing you get a day off running & having some fun! 🦋🖤🦋
I had always heard of Megadeth but never got to listen to them. It was only after watching few of your vlog videos during lockdown that sent me in a Megadeth rabbit hole and now i love the Megadeth songs. Thank you for taking the time to reaching out to the world with your videos.
saw you guys recently in charlotte! it was my first ever concert and you all blew me away! been a fan my whole life. definitely one of the best days ever!
Kiko I saw u guys a few weeks ago in Scranton Pennsylvania, u guys freaking rocked . Long time fan here and it was so awesome to see you guys kill it on stage ! Thank you!
Great video, Kiko! I look forward to your tour vlogs. I’d love to see some more crew members featured so we can understand how many people it takes to run a Megadeth tour and learn more about what each person does to keep the show going
very nice! dirk and you together…he is such a friendly guy like you👍 once i visit google too…very interesting! What are you guys doing for relaxing??😂😂😂……cool video! greetings michael
Hey Kiko, have you ever thought of making a tablature book for "Sound of Innocence", in my opinion it is some of your best work. Anyways I'm loving the new Megadeth album & can't wait to see you guy's live next Wednesday.
Thanks 4 sharing what you did in your free time. I think the content of your videos is a far above, because is genuine, what your team does is great and inspiring
Kilo…thanks for all your video’s…really enjoy them. As for concert video’s, since I can’t attend many, I enjoy watching all those that film the events.👍
Kiko I just wanna wish you the best, you are an incredible artist and a person and you do what you do in perfection. Keep up the good work on UA-cam and we're looking forward to seeing you!!! Best of luck to all of your projects!!!
It might sound ridiculous but your channel really brought fans next to the band again Kiko.....You make 'Deth feel like the "band next door" rather than unapproachable "megastars"...And that is the spirit of Thrash right there! Keep going :) You've been on my top 5 favourite guitarists since Angels' Cry was out....
Thank you so much for posting such videos Kiko the guitar work on the new album is phenomenal 🤘🤘 the solos ..whoa 🤘🤘 Dirk is definitely one bad ass .. super talented Megadeth is going to kill it with the new album 🤘🤘
So happy I’ve never fallen or been embarrassed on stage, like Kiko said. I’ve played with a couple of singers that have busted butt but the worst thing might be a ¡brief! wrong note or chord. 😢 Only a few people notice, if you’re on top of everything else
Kiko your content is amazing and so great to view - all the behind scenes and days off. Brilliant. Been a huge Megadeth fan for 35 years and you guys are as relevant as ever! Have a great tour
Yes and you're a great UA-camr! I like how you document your travels and show the behind the scenes of practice and all that! I like the style of documentary you use too. Its charming and entertaining! Cheers
Kiko, you are a big reason why Megadeth feels like a band again and not hired hands. And that is not only evident in your UA-cam content, but on the new Megadeth album. It feels cohesive. It has to be my favorite line-up since the 90's. Thank you.
totally agree, you are everything that is right about music, and your one of the best guitarists in the world
Yeah he’s definitely my favorite guitarist in megadeth since Marty.
@@outdoorsanimalsandmusic3014 Oh without a doubt. Just listening to the solos on We’ll be Back and it’s straight nasty guitar playing, less than .0001% of people that play guitar can play like that.
Personally, I wish Jr was still in the band. But, yes, Kiko is awesome and keeps this band legitimate, IMO!
💪🏽🤘🏽👊🏽
Please don't let those guys get into your head, Kiko....they've ruined many, many great channels with their BS. You're a great guy, and your channel is perfect just the way it is.
Make more videos with Dirk. This guy is very cool.
I agree. It’s a pleasure seeing Dirk, and James as well!
Dave says that you're "the best guitarist he has ever met".......................high accolades dear sir......bless
I've been getting more views since you guys made that visit. Did you death threaten someone over there?
I'm glad all this guitar practice has enabled you to achieve your dream of becoming a UA-camr Kiko! Heartfelt congratulations!
True!!😂
Love from country of Himalayas NEPAL 🇳🇵🇳🇵🇳🇵🇳🇵🇳🇵
HAIL MEGADETH

I second that, Megadeth has never been better.
Hi Kiko! I'm a newer fan. Just wanted to say Open Source is a masterpiece!
You are my favorite guitar player. Long live to megadeth
Great suggestions Dirk
You're awesome 👏👍
Your an amazing inspirational musician, who has allowed the public to have an insight into your world..

I have a mentorship where I discuss and help musicians. It’s so personal sometimes. I might add some of those topics here

Kiko & Kirk are fastly becoming the dynamic duo!.
Dirk: falls off stage.
Kiko: throws his future wife off stage.
Just got home from the concert at Mansfield it was great

I never had interest in Megadeth before Kiko joined them, now I'm a fan.
Awesome!! My dad lives about a mile from Turtle Bay. I worked in the UA-cam building when it was Gap HQ. Trivia. DHL Worldwide Express HQ used to be on Cherry in San Bruno. This was filmed after the Shoreline show near Google HQ on August 23.
Thank you Kiko for turning me onto Hermeto Pascoal, just incredible stuff.
Kiko the new album is amazing, been listening non stop ❤
Kiko!!!! You are by far one of my favorite heavy metal guitarists ever. Love the fact that you are in 1 of my fav bands of all time Megadeth, keep going strong and bringing out them nasty riffs & solos!. Love you man.

Great piece of advise there Mr. Dirk Verbeuren, it will help me to strive and motivates me more to continue and grow my youtube channel.
Sem medo de errar, estes dois são a energia que está movendo Dave e consequentemente o Mega
I just have to say that personally I like Megadeth with the current members of the band you guys are awesome I cant wait to see you on October 5th
Eu te amo Kikinho nunca pare com o canal

I lived in Redding for two years with nothing exciting happening, when I moved out sátira I played there, and now you guys were there!! Thanks kiko 👏👏
Que cara de ouro esse Dirk bicho.
It might sound ridiculous but your channel really brought fans next to the band again Kiko.....You make 'Deth feel like the "band next door" rather than unapproachable "megastars"...And that is the spirit of Thrash right there!

I love this kind of real life content, keep it up Kiko!
Kiko is just a UA-camr who happens to be on Megadeth aswell
megadeth is so much better than five finger
its almost cute because you three (james) kinda seem like brothers its really heartwarming
Love all your videos kiko..include more Dirk goodness in the future
Kiko Loureiro Ray of Life is the song from the beginning.
So cool!
Que lugar lindo 😊💓
Love your channel Kiko! My daughter and I watch it together. You are my favorite megadeth guitarist since Marty.
2 Maestros!!!
Love you Kiko
Thank you Kiko!
You are full of charisma
