Oh my god yes, my sister and my friend were playing seven nation army live at this church thing and there were like 3 rows of middle-aged Facebook Karens who randomly started clapping way off beat and I feel bad for my sister because they were so loud she couldn’t hear the bass and so she fucked up the lyrics timing and got really flustered and shit
lmaooo one time I was playing/singing Vienna by Billy Joel live and people started clapping off time and I stopped playing for 5 seconds and stared at the audience and started from where I left off, and they started clapping again. They couldn't take the hint smh.
One gig many years ago, our drummer was having issues with his hihat. Every time he'd hit it the stand would just collapse with a loud "kachang" sound. He'd be scrambling around trying to play and reset the hihat every few minutes. He was going mad but the rest of us were laughing our asses off. He got so mad we had a major band fight after the gig, he quit, the singer hit our lone roadie who then flattened the singer, the bass player stormed off in a huff.... band dissolved. Good days lol.
100% that dude is a champ and deserves a big gift from Slash.. the guy running could be going in for a hug or he could have clotheslined him off the stage but that dude was running fast and going to hit slash from behind regardless.
In 1970or 71, at 12 or 13vyears old my guitar strap came off and my guitar fell face down while playing live. That was before strap locks were available. On another ocassion our lead singer forgot his mic. at home. On a third live play our rythym guitarist had a battery failure on his guitar and no spare battery, we had to delay our start time so he could go to the store to get a new one. Then there's outdoor concerts, last summer we had three called off due to rain two hours before the show, I wonder how many will be called off this summer? Another time playing outdoors at the start of the show the wind kicked up, the sky went dark, picknick umbrellas we flying, then all but around 25 of our audience evacuated, just in time for the sun to come out again. Here's another, I just walked onstage around four year's ago to see our guitarists prized guitar fall off it's stand, it's headstock snap just after the nut, good thing he brought a spare!!! When you play live anything can happen, you litterally need to have two of everything as a spare. These are just a few of the many problems we ran into playin live.
If you read my comment above, I am forgetful. Not good to forget your backups. I survived these failures, but it made for a not so enjoyable experience on my end. I'm also a lead singer from behind the drums.
@@akimi_chenkual Yep, when you play live shit happens occasionally. Just last Saturday we playing an all acoustic show, WELL my acoustic preamp ( six songs in and in the middle of a song) shorted out inside my guitar!!! Had to play the rest of our four hour show with a Telecaster, and yeah it wasn't good !!!! Things break, stop working and ocasionally short out, as well you forget to bring something you need desperately but fortunately most shows go great as a rule, that said you never know til it happens and its always a surprise !!!

I was playing "Living On A Prayer" by Bon Jovi with my band. I had my lead guitar player barely plugged in a Marshall Amp. When the solo starts, He walked to the front of the stage to have the audience have a better look at the solo playing. But doing that, He pulled the jack and disconnect the guitar with the amp. And so, when he was playing the solo, He wasn't even plugged. And to make it even worse, after the solo he looked at the sound guy telling him to plug the guitar back into the amp. But instead of doing that, he asked him "Where do I plug this?" It was bad, man
@@louisvilletech7765 yup haha in canyon city Colorado some old lady stood up from her lawn chair, yelled your sound guy sucks!! As she walked away her husband struggled to fold up her lawn chair it was great 😂
Well... Same thing happened to me, but there was no band and there was no gig. I just had to pee really badly, during rush hour. So there was my car, doors locked, engine running, no one inside, during rush hour and everybody knew why.
I never had that happen, but I once broke a string while warming up and had to make a mad dash to a Guitar Center a few blocks away because I didn't have an extra B string with me. This was about 20 minutes before we were on. Managed to make it in time.
I was playing a festival and wasn’t on until the last two songs. I couldn’t make it for the soundcheck, but I’d played these songs a few dozen times. I finally get onstage and my in ear monitors are dead. Fine, I just stand near the floor monitor. Second song the singer decides to change the intro, but I can’t hear what’s going on. I look at the other guitarist and realize I’m playing the wrong part. I look out and see how big the crowd is, and I froze for a few seconds. Bass player looks at me, yells a chord, and I get right back into the song like nothing happened.
Friday morning funnies. Have fun doing what you are doing Steve. Not everyone wants to play live shows and that is okay. You do awesome doing what you do and we all love you for it. You entertain us with your skills and humour. Great video as always. Love you.
Honestly the smaller audiences are more intimidating than the large crowds. You can actually note the facial features on every person in the crowd at that point so it amplifies the terror factor, plus shows that small increase the likelihood of you interacting with the crowd in a meaningful way either before, during, or after the show.
Hi Steve! I got my first guitar yesterday and it's acoustic and I'm taking lessons on how to play, the reason I got that guitar is because u inspired me to play guitar. ILY STEVE!!❤️❤️
Good luck and don't quit even if you're disappointed with yourself sometimes, it happens, but ofc it doesn't mean that you will be..anyway you just need to keep rockin'..practice practice practice :-)
My worst time playing live was when a country band called me on stage to play lead for them in a private party, at the host’s request. Motherfuckers hand me a hollowbody guitar connected to a fender amp, for playing the gucking lead. And me, being the metal/hard rock girl that I am, I was scared shitless, and I froze big time. Until a couple of bars in, I heard in Obi Wan’s voice inside my head “Use the blues scale”, and I played something kinda “decent”, kinda... The audience and band told me it was a good solo, but from my point of view I played like if Nick Jonas and lil Wayne had a baby, looking at the video it was also kinda decent too. Knowing that, never again, I’m not playing another clean lead in my life, at least not in a genre I played literally once in my life (that ocasion I was talking about)
If you had FUN- it was definitely a plus. But it seems like you may not have had fun, so you should learn- NEVER go to a party where they may hand you a hollow body guitar thru a Fender amp! lmao. I'm giving you a hard time, cuz I have no idea what Nick Jonas is and don't think Lil Wayne was around when I was ........ well, anything. Seriously, if the crowd is having a good time, it's probably worth it. If YOU'RE having a good time, it's DEFINITELY worth it! But before my double Black Tooth Grins say too much- good luck with your future endeavors!
When I last played live, during a song, I had a coke bottle thrown at me. I was like “that’s new” in my head but barely anyone noticed except for the band. I also reminded myself that most of the audience were drunk teens, and that they were not in a right mind set. That only happens once tho. Another time, I had to do a full song, and ran out of total breath at the end of it. I was literally gasping for breath by the time the song was done. But then I did another, and it went totally fine.
@RikuKH yeah maybe start with one or two small shows, and if he's fine he can do more... But DF also have their schedule and need someone who can jump in and play all songs etc.
Im back here after accidently finding your music vids from almost a decade ago. You're fantastic, as is, now as well as then. You got as much skill as the best recording artist, and the ability to make people laugh better than most big name netflix comedians. Bravo Stevie.
Kudos for Stevie T, being honest about anxiety, which raises awareness especially in a community of us musicians who are often dealing with the same issue, thanks Stevie!
Omfg the sweaty man part made me lose it. I've never played live, but I was the mascot for my high school and that had all kinds of embarrassing moments. I love you for you and I love what you do so keep on keepin on!
I was playing a bbq with my band and I'm the middle of a song I look to my left and there is a kid peeing off the top of a playground thing... except.... another kid walked right into the stream... Not realizing what was happening the kid looked up and didn't even move for a good 3 seconds. That was nuts and the peed-on kid's parents were sooo mad. Fun party though.
Personally, playing live is the reason i love music, that feeling of your guitar litterally completely filling a venue, the power behind that, and knowing that everyone in the audience is feeling the music, its q lot more personal and rewarding than watching spotify numbers increase personally. But i must admit, if you have a particularly important show, you feel sick before it
That is like my goal to play live even just for a few people at the bar. Just the feeling of playing your part really well and the audience digging it would be like the best feeling in the world to me. I've been practicing seriously for the last few years looking for a cover band now.
The feeling you have during a good gig. I mean almost every time something goes wrong, it's almost impossible to not have issues of any random kind. But if there is a connection between yourself and the audience... gold!
@@jicklesjingles8134 i seem to get lucky with technical issues, i break strings and cables but i always have a spare guitar and spare cables at every gig for a quick fix
@@paterson90 i played a gig the other day in a small club, probably 30 people max, it was a great show, all the members of that band i was playing in can play all the instruments, so between every song we'd be handing each other our instruments, for the last song we punched through plug in baby by muse, i was on drums, the singers mic cable broke on the last chorus, we didnt even realise until it went that the 30 people were singing "plug in baby, crucify my enemy, and im tired of living" (i think those are the lyrics), it was just a fantastic experience, wasnt 30 thousand people, didnt need to be either. Im sure you'll get song gigs some day, the day you get ur first one will be one of the best of ur life!
This is the best reason why Stevie never plays live: Stevie T: *Shreds live like a guitar god to impress everybody* Dragonforce: Can you be our triangle player? Stevie T: Am I a joke to you?
KS DUDE! It’s a fake scene I invented! Stevie T playing guitar live. Then he finds out Dragonforce is in front of him! And he starts to shred! Then Lee gets close to him and Steve gets excited just when he just asks him to be their motherfucking triangle player! Don’t you understand how imagination and jokes work? I mean WTF! There’s no limits for imagination for Christ sake!
So glad you mentioned the generalized anxiety disorder. I'm a lifelong sufferer, along with quite a few family members. I feel like people who have it, do have very different lives from people who don't. I do not feel that this necessarily means we have less of a quality of life, just that we live our lives in ways that can seem somewhat depressing to people without the disorder. For instance, I haven't been to SEE a live show in over a decade, because of my anxiety. I love the fact that I can see live shows on my TV screen, and enjoy it to the fullest. To some of my friends, this seems lonely, but it's how I am comfortable. I still love it! It's something that isn't talked about enough, but it really helps when someone well-known brings up the topic.
Stage story: In one band that I was in, we were playing “Highway To Hell” and, for a goof, I did “The Angus”. Here’s the kicker, I wasn’t wearing my glasses and without them I am literally blind without them. While playing it and doing “The Angus”, I failed to see a large stack of chairs and played my way directly into the stack of chairs.
Playing in front of thousands of people! I dont even play in front of my family! I dont even play in front of my friends! I dont even play in my room! Wait a minute i dont even play the guitar! I dont play anything!
@@richarddevries1358 Unless.... you may be saving yourself for marriage! I now pronounce you -- hand and groom! There's a private room over there! Please not in front of the guests! 🤜🤙
When I was playing a party with my band years ago, in between songs a drunk girl came up to the stage and motioned with her hand for me to come close to her. When I got my face down close to her to hear what she was saying, she punched me square in the nose and screamed, "your guitar playing sucks! I can play better than you!"
I feel ya Stevie. I have always been a musician with anxiety issues as well. I used to just push through and get on stage anyway. These days it’s just a hobby.
Stevie you are seriously one of the funniest dudes I've ever had the pleasure of knowing about. Thank God for you bro. You're a legend mate just when life was sucking ass I took a moment to watch this and It cracked me up
Here’s some things that happened to me live while I was performing (in one show): 1: drummer forgets to end song 2: singer forgot the lyrics 3: guitarist breaks string live and has to use a crappy Indiana guitar
correct and to over exert yourself to think its always gong to happen, you should just believe that its not a big deal...in some ways it is but stop over exerting yourelf
I fell of a 1,5 meter high stage in the first song during a festival in Latvia. I got blinded by the stage light and didn't see the edge. I got up again though hehe.
My biggest problem live is when my hands decide to stay in the dressing room. I was in a cover band and we were playing Detroit Rock City. I had to do Ace's solo part in the middle of the song, ya know, when it's just him playing, then the other guitar comes in for the harmony. It's not hard at all and I played it no problem in practice but as soon as it was an all eyes on me scenario, my hands wouldn't work. It was so embarrassing, all I could do was laugh.
@@Zmargo702 Yes I plan on trying CBD Oil that has very little if any THC, THC triggers Anxiety.

Bro you're AWESOME, I think the world should know you, I'm not quoting Nike but just do it !!! I've been performing 52 years and do not have 1/100th of your skills, playing live is the most incredible thing so IMO. with you skills you got NOTHING to worry about, just do it Bro !!
7:55 no. the interpeter did not say the f word in spanish nor any equivalent word. she just limited herself to translate the message. like to myself so I don't dissapear. Stevie T we love you you rock.
Live show story: I was doing a standup set and halfway through the entire audience got up and left. They didn’t speak English. No idea why they stayed halfway through!
i know how anxiety screws up up with crowds , i use to go into a total fit shit anxiety attac an passout like a convulsing rag doll , freaked any new friends that never seen it before , malls , concerts an public speaking in high school failed me in class , long before it was reconized as a condition . now i avoid all of them , but ive mannaged to go shopping without too much trouble as long as i dont have to converse with too many people at once . i live in a small community in pei now , big change from roronto / agincourt . i always thought you was in BC . great vids , thanks , keep them coming . you have lots of tallent
Depending on the levels of anxiety, it can honestly be impossible to leave the house. You can stand at the threshold of the open door and pass out or go into seizures at the thought of having to do that. It is a hell of a way to live.
Seeing your reasons to not play live, which I can accept, but hearing that you might still consider it, might I offer some suggestions? 1. Go to an open mic night at a local bar or something. (no fat stage crashers, no throwing things, no big crowds to trigger anxiety) 2. Clear the stage of everything but your guitar and amp. (no bad sound guys, no chairs to step on, nothing to trip over) 3. Plant you feet firmly to the ground and do not move them for the duration of your set. (again no tripping) 4. Don't look at the people, look at your guitar. (all they may see is your bald spot, but it keeps you from seeing the more-than-ten-people crowd) 5. Don't talk. (no stroke-things) 6. Improvise your solos. (no guitar-related strokes or memory-lapses) Whether this is actually looked at or liked by Stevie T (or as I like to call him, Ol' Rubberlips), it might also help other live-performance-anxiety people. Have a nice day, and thank you for reading my comment.
I once played the entire bass solo to Angels & Insects without realising I had unplugged my bass during a dance move. I just plugged it back in and kept rocking 😎
It's not about not having live incidents, it's about being able to handle them in an amusing way. I play live with my band, we are having tens of small incidents each show, but we are still offering one of the most appreciated act of our region.
Exactly. Me and my band were playing a gig in Copenhagen and literally every technical failure that could've possibly occurred happened to us on that night (including our drummer somehow managing to break his kicker, keyboards not working, bad cables etc.) but we somehow managed to make it one of our most entertaining shows. I told jokes in between songs while the drummer for one of the other bands playing that night jumped up on stage, kindly lending us his double kicker so we could finish our show! It's all about attitude man.
forgetting lyrics, forgetting band members names while introducing them lol, forgetting where we are, tripping falling , blinded by stage lights and losing my pedal board , all of the above
One of the best concerts I've seen was a Metallica show where the stage fell apart and they fake all of the power going out, then they come back and start playing acoustic then go back to normal in the middle of a song. Some guy even fell out of the rafters and someone else was on fire. Pretty sweet. Maybe '96 or 97.
I remember once I was part of a band and we decided that it would be a good idea to do a local battle of the bands - type competition despite the fact that we'd never played live before and only knew 3 songs. It went about as well as you'd expect.
The video plays for 2m subscribers, but he gets to record this alone in his room with just a camera. It really is a different experience actually being in front of a crowd
Oh man, anxiety. I probably have the same issue although I've played a bunch live anyway. I have a whole system of techniques to deal with it. Like, avoiding talking to people right before/after, avoiding eating very much, napping a few hours before, et cetera. These days I just DJ and I still just... sweat a lot. Funny story for you; Years ago when I was playing metal, my old band's first show was a tiny house party we hosted. I was nervous despite the modest venue. But I am also an audiophile/perfectionist so I thought I HAD to have fresh strings. So I rush out and get them without giving myself any time to put them on and break them in before the party started. Since I was hosting the party, I was trying to be social, yadda yadda. So at the last minute I go run to my bedroom which served as the "green room" and put them on. Another band was playing so I couldn't just play aloud. I tuned with an electric tuner without hearing anything. No big deal! I think you know what happens next; we start the first song and my tuning is totally insane. I think I had a string a whole octave off and at least one other randomly tuned to a different note. I had no idea how to recover. I couldn't play through a whole song like that! So within about 20-30 second in, I stopped and waved off the band, like "False start!!!" Fuuuu... My singer was more experienced than the rest of us and he was effing PISSED. I quickly figured out the fucked up tuning as fast as I could, sweating my ass off in front of our 10-person crowd of friends of ours. After that the show was cool! But that singer never let it go. He quit shortly after. A couple years later he ended up inviting the other guitarist in the band to join his other, more established band. I'm just more of a studio guy. :)
@@OfficialJagPaw I think many of us have made that mistake once! Given the experience at the time and the level of gig, your singer should have just laughed it off... Otherwise it's just awkward for the audience, people don't mind fails as long as you deal with them.
Well, even I had crippling stage fright!! 1st show I kept my eyes and face away from the audience looked at the vocalist and bassist the entire time. 2nd time around, I faced them but didn't bring my eyes up the entire show. This went on for a while. After my 6th or 7th show, I was dancing, making eye contact and even engaging certain audience members. And the feeling of playing a live audience is unparalleled. It's fucking amazing !!!
The funniest stage inciden't I witnessed was while in a classical concert It was a rather silent piece (something like Puccini's Preludio Synphonico for referencce dont know the exact song anymore) and suddenly at a real slow and silent point suddenly the crash drum of the drummer dropped with an extremely loud Bang and it started rolling down the stage which was build with different heights lowering every few meters, so it was like this BANG roll roll roll BANG! roll roll roll BAAAANG!!!! and then at the front of the stage it stopped rolling and started doing the same thing that happens when you place a coin on the desk on it's edge and spin it making an ertremely loud noise. Edit: added a word which I forgot.
......I have general anxiety disorder ( GAD ) , depression too .. I hardly laugh at all , let alone a " belly laugh " ......... but this guy really cracks me up 🤣 ! What a creative genius ! He could do anything , but I'm glad he does this stuff ! Peace !

Friday morning funnies... If I had a tv show, that would be the title. Haha! Love you too Mama T!!!
Hey Stevie T can you do a video by playing Roblox is the most popular game
Awww your so sweet to your son
Aww that's awesome seeing how cool that comment was!
You go mama T
The interpreter didn't translate any of the curse words. She tried to be as polite as possible to the audience.
Greetings from Argentina!

Honestly the smaller audiences are more intimidating than the large crowds. You can actually note the facial features on every person in the crowd at that point so it amplifies the terror factor, plus shows that small increase the likelihood of you interacting with the crowd in a meaningful way either before, during, or after the show.
Absolutely
About 30 seconds into our opening song I discovered that my guitar was not plugged into the amp.
at least it's better than 30 seconds into your last song
I played the new 30 seconds to mars album and noticed nothing is plugged in it's just computer made crap
Just how?please I need to know
This guy is basically a Jim Carrey who rocks at guitar. Love it !

I think Stevie T would be live if they designed his area of the stage to match his bedroom. Stevie T's bedroom is like Linus van Pelt's blanket.
linus has a last name?????????
He's called fucking Linus in English?

To answer Stevie's question, no, the interpreter didn't translate Axl's f words.
Thank you I was little only in the comment section to see if they did lol
Hi Steve! I got my first guitar yesterday and it's acoustic and I'm taking lessons on how to play, the reason I got that guitar is because u inspired me to play guitar. ILY STEVE!!❤️❤️
I got x mas my acoustic im getting a electric soon
Good luck on that
Good luck and don't quit even if you're disappointed with yourself sometimes, it happens, but ofc it doesn't mean that you will be..anyway you just need to keep rockin'..practice practice practice :-)
@Connor Fox alot of beginners start out on acoustic and then they go to electric
@@kaileeholland08 that's not a good way to go tho. I started on acoustic and I wished I started on a electric, that was 6 years ago
My worst time playing live was when a country band called me on stage to play lead for them in a private party, at the host’s request.
Motherfuckers hand me a hollowbody guitar connected to a fender amp, for playing the gucking lead. And me, being the metal/hard rock girl that I am, I was scared shitless, and I froze big time.
Until a couple of bars in, I heard in Obi Wan’s voice inside my head “Use the blues scale”, and I played something kinda “decent”, kinda...
The audience and band told me it was a good solo, but from my point of view I played like if Nick Jonas and lil Wayne had a baby, looking at the video it was also kinda decent too.
Knowing that, never again, I’m not playing another clean lead in my life, at least not in a genre I played literally once in my life (that ocasion I was talking about)
Damn I was hoping there was going to be a video for that 😂
Oh, so I'm not the only one hearing Obi Wan.
If you had FUN- it was definitely a plus. But it seems like you may not have had fun, so you should learn- NEVER go to a party where they may hand you a hollow body guitar thru a Fender amp! lmao. I'm giving you a hard time, cuz I have no idea what Nick Jonas is and don't think Lil Wayne was around when I was ........ well, anything.
Seriously, if the crowd is having a good time, it's probably worth it. If YOU'RE having a good time, it's DEFINITELY worth it! But before my double Black Tooth Grins say too much- good luck with your future endeavors!
As if that fucking happened
That's Ace still that you did it!

@@stanleyalfredsuter2897 thank you!
When I last played live, during a song, I had a coke bottle thrown at me. I was like “that’s new” in my head but barely anyone noticed except for the band. I also reminded myself that most of the audience were drunk teens, and that they were not in a right mind set. That only happens once tho.
Another time, I had to do a full song, and ran out of total breath at the end of it. I was literally gasping for breath by the time the song was done. But then I did another, and it went totally fine.
Stevie T: I don't play live
Also Stevie T: Plays live with Dragonforce
Going to be epic!
Also Stevie T: told ya I won't!
Not anymore
@RikuKH ikr, but I can't blame him. Maybe he will explain it again.
@RikuKH yeah maybe start with one or two small shows, and if he's fine he can do more... But DF also have their schedule and need someone who can jump in and play all songs etc.
If the next announcement from Dragonforce isn't that Dragonforce is touring with Stevie T...I'm gonna be pissed.
It needs to happen!
Live incident: Drummer got drunk, accidentally hit himself in the nuts while performing, throws up all over drum kit.

Kudos for Stevie T, being honest about anxiety, which raises awareness especially in a community of us musicians who are often dealing with the same issue, thanks Stevie!
Omfg the sweaty man part made me lose it. I've never played live, but I was the mascot for my high school and that had all kinds of embarrassing moments. I love you for you and I love what you do so keep on keepin on!
It's all good!! At least you had a mask on!! ;)
cool

LMAO. I love this moment. It's legendary!
7:50 The girl does not translate the curse. Actually, she says “Camera on that thing, please” 👍
Im from Spain and can confirm
I'm a NY'rican and can confirm
I didn't know NYricans spoke Spanish...it all sounds gibberish, I thought it was a dialect of Creole or something like that
I was playing a bbq with my band and I'm the middle of a song I look to my left and there is a kid peeing off the top of a playground thing... except.... another kid walked right into the stream... Not realizing what was happening the kid looked up and didn't even move for a good 3 seconds.
That was nuts and the peed-on kid's parents were sooo mad. Fun party though.
LOL
Holy shit, how would you even keep playing while seeing that happen
This is the funniest shit ever
what a legend
You know it’s a fun party when ppl are getting peed on. 😬
Personally, playing live is the reason i love music, that feeling of your guitar litterally completely filling a venue, the power behind that, and knowing that everyone in the audience is feeling the music, its q lot more personal and rewarding than watching spotify numbers increase personally. But i must admit, if you have a particularly important show, you feel sick before it
That is like my goal to play live even just for a few people at the bar. Just the feeling of playing your part really well and the audience digging it would be like the best feeling in the world to me. I've been practicing seriously for the last few years looking for a cover band now.
The feeling you have during a good gig. I mean almost every time something goes wrong, it's almost impossible to not have issues of any random kind.
But if there is a connection between yourself and the audience... gold!
@@jicklesjingles8134 i seem to get lucky with technical issues, i break strings and cables but i always have a spare guitar and spare cables at every gig for a quick fix
@@paterson90 i played a gig the other day in a small club, probably 30 people max, it was a great show, all the members of that band i was playing in can play all the instruments, so between every song we'd be handing each other our instruments, for the last song we punched through plug in baby by muse, i was on drums, the singers mic cable broke on the last chorus, we didnt even realise until it went that the 30 people were singing "plug in baby, crucify my enemy, and im tired of living" (i think those are the lyrics), it was just a fantastic experience, wasnt 30 thousand people, didnt need to be either. Im sure you'll get song gigs some day, the day you get ur first one will be one of the best of ur life!
2:05 Axl: Well, thanks to the lameass laughing, im going home! (Slams mic)
This is the best reason why Stevie never plays live:
Stevie T: *Shreds live like a guitar god to impress everybody*
Dragonforce: Can you be our triangle player?
Stevie T: Am I a joke to you?
@SDMF dude *NONE* of the stuff he plays here is live.
KS Dude, it’s just a joke...
@@americanmetalhead3954 maybe but it's still not live and you called it live, which it isn't joke or not
KS DUDE! It’s a fake scene I invented! Stevie T playing guitar live. Then he finds out Dragonforce is in front of him! And he starts to shred! Then Lee gets close to him and Steve gets excited just when he just asks him to be their motherfucking triangle player! Don’t you understand how imagination and jokes work? I mean WTF! There’s no limits for imagination for Christ sake!
Funny part about this joke is when you explained the joke 🤣🤣😆😆
So glad you mentioned the generalized anxiety disorder. I'm a lifelong sufferer, along with quite a few family members. I feel like people who have it, do have very different lives from people who don't. I do not feel that this necessarily means we have less of a quality of life, just that we live our lives in ways that can seem somewhat depressing to people without the disorder. For instance, I haven't been to SEE a live show in over a decade, because of my anxiety. I love the fact that I can see live shows on my TV screen, and enjoy it to the fullest. To some of my friends, this seems lonely, but it's how I am comfortable. I still love it! It's something that isn't talked about enough, but it really helps when someone well-known brings up the topic.
Stage story:
In one band that I was in, we were playing “Highway To Hell” and, for a goof, I did “The Angus”. Here’s the kicker, I wasn’t wearing my glasses and without them I am literally blind without them. While playing it and doing “The Angus”, I failed to see a large stack of chairs and played my way directly into the stack of chairs.
so your highway to hell ended in chairs =D

@Anastasia Desroches YEEES
When I was playing a party with my band years ago, in between songs a drunk girl came up to the stage and motioned with her hand for me to come close to her. When I got my face down close to her to hear what she was saying, she punched me square in the nose and screamed, "your guitar playing sucks! I can play better than you!"
Did you punch her back?
@@TheComebackKing20 may hope so. When a woman starts the violence, she lost her don't-hit-a-woman card.

That’s a fatality if I ever read one.
I feel ya Stevie. I have always been a musician with anxiety issues as well. I used to just push through and get on stage anyway. These days it’s just a hobby.
”Maybe I’d play a show with dragonforce”

The Slash stage tackle incident. Nice one Steve! Absolutely HISTERICAL!!! 👍
Here’s some things that happened to me live while I was performing (in one show):
1: drummer forgets to end song
2: singer forgot the lyrics
3: guitarist breaks string live and has to use a crappy Indiana guitar
At least one of those three things happens to every band at one time or another...
correct and to over exert yourself to think its always gong to happen, you should just believe that its not a big deal...in some ways it is but stop over exerting yourelf
Singer forgets lyrics is basically mandatory for every show I've done.
be grateful for that crappy indiana guitar, trust me it's wayyyyy better than no backup guitar at all...
Lmao are Indiana guitars a thing outside of Indiana? I have no idea cause I live in Indiana lol. I see them in every local shop
I fell of a 1,5 meter high stage in the first song during a festival in Latvia. I got blinded by the stage light and didn't see the edge. I got up again though hehe.
A guy i was in school with knocked his head on stage while headbanging lost his mind and fell into a pond off beer.
My biggest problem live is when my hands decide to stay in the dressing room. I was in a cover band and we were playing Detroit Rock City. I had to do Ace's solo part in the middle of the song, ya know, when it's just him playing, then the other guitar comes in for the harmony. It's not hard at all and I played it no problem in practice but as soon as it was an all eyes on me scenario, my hands wouldn't work. It was so embarrassing, all I could do was laugh.
I've also suffered from Anxiety most of my fifty years Steve, hang in there & always Hope for a better future. Thx for sharing \m/
yep me too man we're no alone but just looking at the positive and being motivated to do better is all we need. god bless

Depending on the levels of anxiety, it can honestly be impossible to leave the house. You can stand at the threshold of the open door and pass out or go into seizures at the thought of having to do that. It is a hell of a way to live.

"Reep! Baarrgh! Ba-ba buh ba-ba buh! Brah brah brah!"
Seeing your reasons to not play live, which I can accept, but hearing that you might still consider it, might I offer some suggestions?
1. Go to an open mic night at a local bar or something. (no fat stage crashers, no throwing things, no big crowds to trigger anxiety)
2. Clear the stage of everything but your guitar and amp. (no bad sound guys, no chairs to step on, nothing to trip over)
3. Plant you feet firmly to the ground and do not move them for the duration of your set. (again no tripping)
4. Don't look at the people, look at your guitar. (all they may see is your bald spot, but it keeps you from seeing the more-than-ten-people crowd)
5. Don't talk. (no stroke-things)
6. Improvise your solos. (no guitar-related strokes or memory-lapses)
Whether this is actually looked at or liked by Stevie T (or as I like to call him, Ol' Rubberlips), it might also help other live-performance-anxiety people.
Have a nice day, and thank you for reading my comment.
Ol' 👏🏻 Rubber 👏🏻 Lips 👏🏻.

that's a very nice and thoughtful comment, thanks for the advice!
I once played the entire bass solo to Angels & Insects without realising I had unplugged my bass during a dance move. I just plugged it back in and kept rocking 😎
It's not about not having live incidents, it's about being able to handle them in an amusing way. I play live with my band, we are having tens of small incidents each show, but we are still offering one of the most appreciated act of our region.
Exactly. Me and my band were playing a gig in Copenhagen and literally every technical failure that could've possibly occurred happened to us on that night (including our drummer somehow managing to break his kicker, keyboards not working, bad cables etc.) but we somehow managed to make it one of our most entertaining shows. I told jokes in between songs while the drummer for one of the other bands playing that night jumped up on stage, kindly lending us his double kicker so we could finish our show! It's all about attitude man.
What is your band called
@@xanderclip Mine could be "Loosers, inc.".
5:35
Oh no! Slash has airpods in, he can't hear you!
forgetting lyrics, forgetting band members names while introducing them lol, forgetting where we are, tripping falling , blinded by stage lights and losing my pedal board , all of the above
Wow dude ! Get out while the gettin's good. A few mishaps, ok fine. But all that? You're cursed
You pretty much just described every ozzy concert I've been to
One of the best concerts I've seen was a Metallica show where the stage fell apart and they fake all of the power going out, then they come back and start playing acoustic then go back to normal in the middle of a song. Some guy even fell out of the rafters and someone else was on fire. Pretty sweet. Maybe '96 or 97.
Axl knocked to many times on McDonald's door .or did he ate to much sweets from that child of him ..
I remember once I was part of a band and we decided that it would be a good idea to do a local battle of the bands - type competition despite the fact that we'd never played live before and only knew 3 songs. It went about as well as you'd expect.
I was so drunk i asked the other guitarist where my guitar is and he told me it's in my hands.
That gig must have been golden !! Hahaha ouch !
I've been drunk enough to misplace notes, but never the whole instrument.
I got really high and couldn't tune a guitar for like 30 minutes straight
Shit once I was so drunk I forgot how to play guitar, 😂
"I would never play in front of all those people"
Also stevet: *acting like a fool in front of 2mln subscribers*
The video plays for 2m subscribers, but he gets to record this alone in his room with just a camera. It really is a different experience actually being in front of a crowd
Every joke is awful, people are too dumb to realize.
Yeah it is only him not a lot of people and by the way he can edit it if anything he dose not any part of it in the vidio
Oh man, anxiety. I probably have the same issue although I've played a bunch live anyway. I have a whole system of techniques to deal with it. Like, avoiding talking to people right before/after, avoiding eating very much, napping a few hours before, et cetera. These days I just DJ and I still just... sweat a lot.
Funny story for you;
Years ago when I was playing metal, my old band's first show was a tiny house party we hosted. I was nervous despite the modest venue. But I am also an audiophile/perfectionist so I thought I HAD to have fresh strings. So I rush out and get them without giving myself any time to put them on and break them in before the party started. Since I was hosting the party, I was trying to be social, yadda yadda. So at the last minute I go run to my bedroom which served as the "green room" and put them on. Another band was playing so I couldn't just play aloud. I tuned with an electric tuner without hearing anything. No big deal!
I think you know what happens next; we start the first song and my tuning is totally insane. I think I had a string a whole octave off and at least one other randomly tuned to a different note. I had no idea how to recover. I couldn't play through a whole song like that! So within about 20-30 second in, I stopped and waved off the band, like "False start!!!"
Fuuuu... My singer was more experienced than the rest of us and he was effing PISSED. I quickly figured out the fucked up tuning as fast as I could, sweating my ass off in front of our 10-person crowd of friends of ours. After that the show was cool! But that singer never let it go. He quit shortly after. A couple years later he ended up inviting the other guitarist in the band to join his other, more established band.
I'm just more of a studio guy. :)
lol i would never change strings right before a gig unless it was an emergency or something
@@--TOM-- Yeah. Dumb move. Learned my lesson though! It was a house party afterall.
@@OfficialJagPaw I think many of us have made that mistake once! Given the experience at the time and the level of gig, your singer should have just laughed it off... Otherwise it's just awkward for the audience, people don't mind fails as long as you deal with them.
Wow
Well, even I had crippling stage fright!! 1st show I kept my eyes and face away from the audience looked at the vocalist and bassist the entire time. 2nd time around, I faced them but didn't bring my eyes up the entire show. This went on for a while. After my 6th or 7th show, I was dancing, making eye contact and even engaging certain audience members. And the feeling of playing a live audience is unparalleled. It's fucking amazing !!!
The interpreter did not include the "F***"
She said, "una cámara en esto por favor"
Which pretty much means, "a camera on this please"
exactamente jajajaja
She was real polite and never said any bad and even mean word. (Wasn't a real good translation)
Yup, that happened in Argentina. Famous show because of that bad translation on purpose
The funniest stage inciden't I witnessed was while in a classical concert It was a rather silent piece (something like Puccini's Preludio Synphonico for referencce dont know the exact song anymore) and suddenly at a real slow and silent point suddenly the crash drum of the drummer dropped with an extremely loud Bang and it started rolling down the stage which was build with different heights lowering every few meters, so it was like this BANG roll roll roll BANG! roll roll roll BAAAANG!!!! and then at the front of the stage it stopped rolling and started doing the same thing that happens when you place a coin on the desk on it's edge and spin it making an ertremely loud noise.
Edit: added a word which I forgot.
xD
Eww classical
