      Ryan DeFrees I don’t know what you’re talking about, in a live performance, if there’s pitch corrections you can hear little fluctuations in his voice on the high notes, as pitch corrections aren’t perfect live. 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. 😎

      I’m in awe at their capabilities.

      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 RUclips 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.

    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.

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!

    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.

    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 !
