Stevie Ray Vaughan was a master of that. He used 13 gauge strings minimum yet somehow still snapped them constantly cos of the insane bends, and he'd just not stop playing and either replace the string mid song while never stopping playing or he'd get a roadie to switch to another guitar while not stopping playing. It was quite a sight to see.

James never ceases to amaze me. I’ve been an avid fan of his for over 10 years, and there’s still so much to learn about him. Love you James and the entire Cinemassacre team!
1 more day before AVGN’s birthday, so might as well say: ANGRY BIRTHDAY, NERD!!!!!!!! Edit: Well it’s currently 12MN from where I’m from, so I can officially say: HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MR. ROLFE!!! Also, people may not know it is Jessica Simpson & Claudia Leitte’s birthday as well, so.................
@@Thewolfguys.cartoons2000 Ah shit, that means I'm turning 40 in 3 months :| I wonder what the nerds going to do for his mid-life crisis? I know I'm doing something nerdy and video game related
I just realized that, the reason why we like James so much is that even after all these years of success he's still a guy that kinda doesn't know what to do with his face in front of a camera when he's not playing the videogame nerd, which means that he still gets nervous. So after all these years, he's still a regular down-to-earth guy.
So true. I almost expect him to mention casually in a video how he also really can fly a plane, runs a restaurant in his spare time as an accomplished chef!
Also! I guess a quasi Shakespearean actor. Remember that one nerd episode that was pretty much one take and all poetry and prose for Halloween!? Immortal right? Hmm 🤔 I think that’s the one.
Imagine this. Street fighter assasin's fist having a second season where they actually have the street fighter tournament. And this music plays as tournament montage.
Yea, t' actually kinda hard to believe 40 year old AVGN and 38 year old ReviewTechUSA is even of the same species. Lol! (Sorry, I don't mean to be like that, but it just popped up in my head.)
More like it was probably in the back of her mind when she came up with it. She didn’t consciously copy it. I hear it’s actually common among musicians to “come up” with something only to realize later it’s been done.
@Lassi Kinnunen 81 Not to forget Streets of Rage 2 obviously ripping off several popular house music songs by the likes of The Shamen and Inner City. But hey, I'm not complaining :D
I heard that Ken's theme was originally going to Guille's theme but because he's a pilot for the AF, I think, having that theme would make it look like they were copying Top Gun
Me either, but its not like he played anything incredibly hard. He may have just picked it up for this. The whole song is based on power chords, a simple, movable shape. Still cool, im just saying he may not really play much.
@@xjunkxyrdxdog89 No you can tell he didn't pick it up for this, he looks very comfortable and rythm and everything is on point! The chord is the easy part
@@frankimations7163 Although I dunno if the OP intended this, if you read it like he's using guitar as a verb, then it actually makes sense. Still technically incorrect, but English is a pretty versatile language that allows many non-verbs to be randomly used as verbs, and still culturally make sense in some contexts.
The singer is really good so are the other musicians. They should do a cover of faith no mores midlife crisis mashed up with a song from the NES silver surfer game.
I mean he did play in a punk band (well, more like a mix of death metal and punk). If you can search the video it's called Crash and Burn California I believe. I could be wrong. It's been years.
To be fair, there wasn't much to his part. Maybe he legit knows guitar, or maybe the lead guitarist lent him one of his and told him where to place his hands.
@@nickcervenka8756 He was really playing rhythm guitat. Everyone you saw in the video was seriously performing. Including Kieran and Justin who during many parts outshined the lead singer. Edit: he's not lead but he isn't base either. Take the rhythm out and say it isn't a big part. Really?
He's been talking about being a massive metal fan for like a decade at this point but I don't think he's ever said he plays an instrument. I wouldn't be surprised if he very recently started learning it, like how he's trying to learn Japanese. He's a man so dedicated to improving himself and his art even while being a full time dad, so much respect to him
Well it is only rock guitar, it's not that hard (I play metal guitar so I'm biased). Mind you I think the same thing when it's a world famous rock band. :) Seriously though I highly recommend taking it up as a hobby. 2 years of guitar practice would get you to that level.
@@WildBluntHickok Well yes, but there are a lot of easy metal songs too. In general, you can always write stuff that's hard to play no matter what genre.
Seems like I saw more and more and more rock/metal references and imagery in the past 6 years of videos. He mentions Witchfinder General, Iron Maiden, Slayer etc. in his nerd videos, and he also started wearing Fender hats and shirts. It's probably a skill/hobby that he always thought was cool and got into it later when more money was available.
James Rolfe is one of the coolest people of our time. He's mature and respectable, and at the same time he's the Angry Video Game Nerd who loves talking about piss and shit. He's the only man that can make a poop joke funny and is the Elon Musk of RUclips. I love this man for so many reasons, but mainly for making my childhood the best it could be. James inspires me so much to keep trying to reach my goals. I have learned that anybody can be somebody from James. I would not be the person I am without James Rolfe and Cinemassacre as a whole. Thank you.
sean pet He didn’t say that he didn’t like James, he said he thought he couldn’t like James more, which most likely means he liked James so much he didn’t think he could like him more.
This song feels like I injected myself with the entire 80s straight in my veins. Now I feel like doing something, anything that involves punching, running and a whole lot of training montage!!!
James is actually playing rhythm guitar which is incredibly easy. Just power chords which is beginner stuff. Not talking crap, I love James with all my heart and soul, but I would love to ACTUALLY seem him shredding out metal solos. Never stop being you James 😁.

Hope you guys do a full album
Why is Justin always grafted into everything?
Guessing he's the, ummm, bigger guy? I was wondering the same thing. This was much better than I thought it'd be though.
because he is a giant glutton and needs to eat everything.
I didn’t even know James played guitar, the guy is always bringing more to the table.
He is the true youtube star
I had an inkling, his inner metalhead has broken through the nerd persona before, as well as some of the rental reviews.
I’ve never seen a sleeveless James before. This must be his unleashed Rock Persona
That’s fucking awesome

@@smpmuzpid They have the distinctive LJN feel
That singer is screaming this anthem like it's the last chance he'll ever get to speak. I love the intensity! Rock on dude!!
Tbh it's the best part of the vid for me. Dude sings with so much passion ya think he's gonna get a fucking heart stroke!
He just GOES for it and doesn't stop. It's amazing
James Rolfe: Renaissance Man of our time.
So true. I almost expect him to mention casually in a video how he also really can fly a plane, runs a restaurant in his spare time as an accomplished chef!
He's the Mark Twain of our time stuck between the Gen X and Millenial generations yet still highly respected by Gen Y and Zoomers.
"Hey, Ken, Can I cover your theme song?"
"SHURE-YOUUU-KAN!"
Go to the corner.
... ... ... ok lol ^^
All bands need a member that just plays arcade games on stage.
YES fucking sign me up lol
They were called powerglove
Id be there asap for the audition
Like those early days Frank Ocean concerts
If the Mighty Mighty Bosstones can have a guy that just dances then these guys can have a guy playing video games.
Imagine James releasing a metal album. I'd buy that so quick I could break the sound barrier.
Sonic boom.
Since James has a singer and a keytar player he might as well put out a Nintendocore album
I'd buy it in a heartbeat
It would be better than the nostalgia critic album. I’m just saying...
That would be awesome
Go out rexviper.com to grab our songs and check out the band.
Cool I guess
Sure
got it, thanks!
that red key-tar really carried the song, nice ^^
Please make more
He plays sh***y games
He play Board Games
He’s a filmmaker
He has an amazing community
He can play the guitar
What’s next for James?
he’s a legit film collector/buff/enthusiast/appreciator/educator
Also! I guess a quasi Shakespearean actor. Remember that one nerd episode that was pretty much one take and all poetry and prose for Halloween!? Immortal right? Hmm 🤔 I think that’s the one.
Next he's gonna be a chef. Cooking with James, it'll be lit.
He can also paint, as seen in tje Bob Ross episode

I really love how this still has a "garage band" feel even though everyone's in a different place.
The magic of audio mixing
The "magic" of everyone being slightly sloppy and the mixing being done low budget (not meant as a bad thing, garage sound is nice)
How is it even possible for a man like James to get cooler and cooler as years go by.
It just goes to show that being called a nerd in high school does not mean you have to feel bad about it!
Nobody's talking how about James is fit af for a nerd.
well...he eats NOTHING and he only drinks rolling rock...i guess this diet works 🤣🤣🤣
Yo, he looks good fam

Also, I'm probably only going to chart it for expert for each instrument because JEEZ there is a lot here
James Rolfe quickly morphs into James Hetfield.
But then Twitch would play elevator music over the top and ruin everything!
That's so cool I didn't know that James played guitar. I have even more respect for him than I did
Just when you thought James couldn’t be any cooler he plays guitar!
james' pinky behind the neck. im glad im not the only one that does that when playing rookie rhythm chords.
daaaamn. That man can definitely sing
JAMES CAN PLAY GUITAR? (or is he faking it?)
Stevie T. to the rescue? 😂
lol i dont think hes faking it man, its just power chords. but that SG he's playing is badass
I bet the Nerd can't though.
It does say under the pinned comment: "Rhythm guitar by James Rolfe"
I kind of wish Kyle Justin was part of this too
Yep still coming back to this vid. That punch out gets stuck in my head and I gotta see this again
James is the one who can make a nerd looks cool
This may have just become my new favorite song
This is the single most manly thing on the internet 💜💜
James plays guitar???? 2020 can still be awesome after all😭😭
I'll take "things I didn't know I wanted" for $1000
The small shining light in 2020 that we all needed tbh
AVGN as a guitarist: do I smell a guitar hero episode in the near future?! 🤘🤟
Or Guitar Smith
James actually plays guitar Smith it's why he almost cried Inna episode of rental reviews when a DVD broke in his Ps3
think you might mean RockSmith, but sure.
A 2 or 3 part episode on all those rhythm games would be intense!
