- This is me playing Thunderstruck at my school school's talent show. I know its not perfect, haven't been playing guitar long and it's kind of sloppy at parts, but I'm getting better! Hope you enjoy!
P.S. Check out my Crazy Train talent show video too!

Mums in the audience: wow this kid is really good.
Dads in the audience: THUNDER OHHHOHHOHOHOHH THUNDER OHOHOHOHOH THUNDER OHHHHOHHHOHOHOH THUNDERSTRUCK
so fricking true bro XD
Lol
Lel
Aussielicious i am fucking aussie so I completely understand that 🤣🤣🤣 plus its so true
@Fariz Shaskia lol :)
I was waiting for the audience to start screaming “THUNDER” but no, they just sat there like a bunch of dense cabbages
“Dense cabbages” 😂😂
The Irishmen comsidering rap has the biggest impact on our generation I don’t see anything wrong with it
@@markibitayo9387 it does have an impact on our generation because the standards are so fucking low
@@yt_user5614 just because you dont like the genre doesnt mean its low standards. Rap is the music that speaks to this generation the most thats just how it is. This is coming from someone that doesnt have a specific music taste and likes to listen to any kind of music from 40's-modern
@Mette B all music requires talent to make
**kid plays legendary riff that takes a long time to master**
Crowd: 😐😐😐
well hes not playing it true to the record its picked not hammer ons and pull offs but close enough. crowd is just stupid and dont appreciate rock n roll period xD
He also was kind of awkward there
@@PureBrutality malcom plays it with hammerons live.
@@sambotti1705 in the studio recording they did with with picking. Nonetheless it doesn't really matter, it's the same notes at the same time :/
tbh it isnt even that hard
It hurts that the audience doesn’t know what he just did
he just shredded some cheese on that stage. jk, but he shredded and no one even clapped along :(
@@o-normandy4476 it’s not that hard - if you’re fuçkíng awesome at guitar. Lol. This kid is walking talent
@@shaft3285 I woulnd't say that he is talented, he didnt even mastered it, he made like 8 mistakes during intro riff.
Он лажает
If we’re being honest what he did was not impressive at all. Someone starting from scratch with no background in music could probably learn that in a matter of days and get up to proper speed in a week or 2. Thunderstruck is not hard AT ALL to learn the riff of and he made about 10 mistakes in the first minute alone. It was pretty sloppy
People chattin shit about the kid, no one is perfect, at least he has the balls to get up there
sonny parker true and funny
but still something like voodoo child or euruption would be more impressive. but everyone plays eurption and a lot of it isnt realy hard
fr slash but im sure it was just nerves on a stage because i play fantastically by myself but cant when people are around really
ACER no i mean like its not the best song to show off
PasteyWhiteboy Wow!!! Great job kid!
This is one of the most dead crowds I have ever witnessed
True
It’s a school crowd that’s why 💀
Yui•heart my school (including teachers and students) would be singing their hearts out 🤣 i guess im lucky...
The F-35 Lockheed Martin Lightning ll yes you are 😭😂💖
Yui•heart im not too sure on how this will affect this but im in Britain, I heard its different in the states
Nobody:
The one dad in the back: WHY AM I THE ONLY ONE YELLING THUNDER
hey I would yell thunder, I may be 13 but I know good music unlike rap and pop and all that untalented stuff
Who would have known todoroki was a metal fan😏😏
@@Dumbfuckwithatruck fax
Which part?
@@Dumbfuckwithatruck yOu LiKe ReAl MuSIC nONe oF tHaT hIP HoP cRap
guys chill out on the crowd not exploding over him playing the song, they were just....thunderstruck
I love this comment
Hahahha
Wow
underrated comment
He probably still lost to a group of kids playing riptide on uekeleles
A R ukuleles*
Yep
Eu the ukeleles are very good instruments
Very well could be.. people who don’t play guitar can’t even imagine how damn hard it actually is
😭😭no...
This crowd didnt pass the vibe check, i would've been singing my heart out
Crowd is fail vibe
Boring crowd
I agree with you
Indeed
Lol I actually was singing my heart out
I bet he lost to some chick singing a sad song and faking depression
Most definitely
just say you hate women buddy
@@bee4590 uhm... You do know what a fucking joke is right?
@@jade_bee.2579 yeah i just made one lol
Isnt that always the case XD u have cool kids doing thunderstrucks and then the weird depressed girls singing Fight song XD
this dude deserves soo much more hype and respect i hate the crowd
Amen.
That kid needs a real audience and not just a bunch of morrons who dont even scream thunder
When my son was a toddler he yelled FANTA everytime I played it :-)
I agree
Adriano Jameson eh close enough
Pretty sure the moronic audience teenagers only listen to rap and mainstream pop and because of that they will never appreciate real music.
I completely agree
I honestly feel bad for the kid. He did amazing and all the girls are just laughing at him. Like show some respect. Everyone thinks guitar is easy but it’s hard ash
Ong bro
No one was laughing
Merrick Fritts Fax but their heart melts when some tool plays 2 chords and sings about love
Fuck'em. That kid is going places. Kids that laugh at someone at a talent show are going nowhere fast.
@@incurve6839 I heard teens giggling as teens do.
Doesn't mean it was directed towards the performer, kids get distracted easily
"Thank you Derrin for your performance. Now we have Timmy with a flute solo for Hot Cross Buns."
Everyone's like "What song is this?"
hurts to know that you are absolutely right
Where? Sorry but for someone to ask that is so dumb so I’m inclined not to believe you. Because it’s literally in the title.
@@captainguyman7382 lmao he meant that the crowd was like "what song is this" since nobody listens to rock..
@@flowertheone ayy that’s one of my favorite years
@@captainguyman7382 he didnt mean the comments lol
Plays an AC/DC song, wears a slayer shirt
Nice
Should've played Froggy Went A-Courtin' while wearing a Tex Ritter shirt, I tell u whut.
69 likes, nice
Also fender amp
@@altairstudio8179 I can't like it has 420 likes
Zilla Esperance welp now it’s past 420, this is truly sad
People have no clue how fast this kid is playing
not that fast
Yuri Muñoz LMAOOOOOOO
Asher Kolars no, no he is very fast, i can confirm, as a guitar player as well
@@alexandruivan5990 as a guitar player, I can confirm that he is indeed fast, but it's a very easy riff. Plus, he played it the easy way.
@@alexandruivan5990 As a guitar player, a metal guitar to be precise, he is playing very mediocrity fast. Get over it. It isn't very fast. I've never taken the time to learn it, so I can't play it... because it was too easy. it's not hard, it's not very fast. Let alone the fact he's not even picking (which is correct).
The amount of courage it takes to get up in front of a dead crowd like that and perform is amazing. Hope he finds his bandmates soon and plays to a real audience. Well done young fella!!!
Not only is he extremely good looking but he’s extremely talented, has good music taste, and makes his playing look as if it were easy and almost effortless.
some girl will be blessed with those fingers one day
Me, a guitarist girl: 👁👅👁
What if he’s gay?
Checkmate
Shrimpy McSwimmington 😏
i am yODELING
Mary Y same lol
Music Teachers: Yeah but Classic and Opera is a lot better
My psicholog likes this
I always thought there was something'symphonic' about it.
Opera is quite dope and i love it, but i think i prefer glam rock
Thank god my music teacher was an actual music teacher who was open minded to any genre
@@damariscastillo6509 lucky
To all the people getting mad at the crowd, do try to remember that most of them have probably never even heard of AC/DC before, much less know this song. Yes, this kid did a fantastic job, and nailed a tricky song to play, and yes it sucks to hear no one yelling thunder, but that’s more of a result of the current popularity of different music types
The sad truth :c
I graduated a few years before that from high school and out gym teacher had us run laps to this song
Wtf amigo
@@arfggjjdryyty why’s it sad that some people don’t like rock
@@sarahnkrby Most people don't care about rock or any other type of music, but this song alone is extremely well known and liked by pretty much everyone. I'm 2000's kid and most people I know of my age know this song without being into rock music.
Oh, I love his Slayer shirt. Was he attending a Catholic high school? Audience is so dead!
The way he just casually looks at everyone while killing it with his awesome performance just amazes me.
He’s not even trying it seems
@@themaczter9024 as a guitarist myself, the song is harder than you think. But i do agree with you though. I mean he’s good but if he showed more expression I think he would get more attention from the audience
@@terrianneee I play guitar too. I was complimenting him.
@@themaczter9024 👍
I bet he lost to some girl singing Memory or some shit.
Is that a reference? 😉
c a n i g e t a d a m n h u g ? U Patty Farrell reference yes
@@wildchicken679 it's from Diary Of A Wimpy Kid: Roderick Rules.
He probably lost to a girl singing titanium
Jasee lmfao
Dude... f**king awesome. I know this was 4 years ago, but still. This kinda stuff is what's awesome. The right people will find each other.
Never stop rocking bud.
Judges when watching this: This is nice
Judges when watching a reenactment of Annie: CONGRATULATIONS YOU ARE OUR WINNER
if i had a seat in that crowd i would scream
THUNDER AAH AH AH AH AH AH AH AH
THUNDER AAH AH AH AH AH AH AH AH
THUNDER AAH AH AH AH AH AH AH AH
THUNDER AAH AH AH AH AH AH AH AH
6TEN then everyone would look at you but you keep going
Dishwasher yeah
I never knew that brain may likes ac/dc
I couldnt agree more
@@muudi-hoodie9479 new account sadly but yeah i love brian lol
Ok...this crowd is BORING. This kid needs a legit audience
Because all they hear is rap music is better in there head when this is the oj shit
@@xPayBakx rap and rock are two different unique styles but both hype you up and one is not necessarily better than the other, rock is more classic, respected, has a sound like nothing else, and is generally liked by older people more because of their generation growing up with that and rap is more appealing to younger people, but it is hype and there are a lot of really good rap songs that send a message well and are put together well and take talent.
Cylent stfu
Abyssal Red lets be fair, (on most cases) rap requires little to no talent
Josh Doty angry kid
If he likes this comment then...
Wowww
He actually liked it? Wowww
@@freakthemonkey7311 pog
Hellah yeah
Pog
Right on!
dislikes are from people who were nodding their head to the tune and accidentally hit the button
Ahahahah
To think: this kid is nineteen now, so imagine the improvement he’s made over the years!
He found meth and is now homeless
Chad Kirk k
or he stopped
The legend must return and show us his talent once again
20 now
So we’re all just gonna deny the fact that this kid looks like Danny Duncan. Dang that’s a lot of likes
thats literally what i thought lol
Holy jesus think you I thought I was alone
Yup
Brandon Cahoon you’re right man
Bruh
the courage to stand up there alone is commendable. the guitar playing comes in second. great job and be proud.
if i had the talent you had and i did a talent show id be bouncing around acting like I was the real AC DC
I think the crowds only prefer someone who plays a G chord
hahahahahhahaha
Or the holy chord: Gsus
@@gaffer2602 , sorry I know its a real chord but,
that's a little sussy
@@gaffer2602 that's pretty funny
@@Jammiiiii bsus is even sussier
I can't see one comment bashing him yet all the comments say stop bashing him
Facts
Its danny duncan
Ikr😂
I can't see one comment saying stop bashing him
Isaac #29 exactly, I think people just say that stupid shit to get likes.
DOES NOBODY SEE THAT THAT WAS ALL HAMMER-ON'S AT THE BEGINNING, NO PICKING?!?!?! Kid's insanely talented.
Awwwwesome, the kids talent on electric guitar is amazing. He’s so good, it seemed as if he was bored while he makes the guitar squeal in opening rif .... one handed mind you. Insane, but so amazing
Nobody knows how difficult it is to play
It's actually a pretty easy song to learn. It appears very difficult, but it's not.
@@elfchristmas3837 r u replying to me or him?
@@blustgt8814 maybe for u...im a beginner and for me is impossible haha
@@hubertkalamajski832 u'll learn don't worry
Not difficult 040704070407 050805080508 040704070407 12 0 10 0 9 0 ect.
Kids in crowd: You need two hands to play guitar
Kid on stage: Hold my pick
Umm it’s originally played with 1 hand
Why did I read that as "Hold my prick"
@@sumsd-qs9js yeah in the video while he chuck Barry's across the stage😂😂
Its harder for me to play wth a pick
PRICELESS!!
This kid is gonna go far in life
I am trying to learn this song on my guitar and it is insanely hard! You must have been playing for years and I am very impressed.
This audience sucks he absolutely nailed it, I hope he at least won
absolutely nailed it? LOL dude was slipping bad all the way through
@@user-em4wh5ji3w i can guarantee he played infinately better than you would have in that situation, plus you almost definately cant play guitar lmfao
@@user-em4wh5ji3w not at all lol don't know what your on
@@user-em4wh5ji3w he actually did really good i don’t think you realize how much time that takes to learn and how fast he’s moving
@@zach6527 think what you want lol
Sure he played some sour notes, but he didn’t stop and never made the listener think he made mistakes. That’s a pro move
Yeah from my perspective I didn’t notice Jack shit 😂 I don’t listen to much rock though. This sounded perfect to me 🤭
Hes playing it wrong that's the only thing and hes also messing up on it
model guy295 you just mad because he’s got a vid on RUclips and you don’t
@@Fishing_Daddy_84 that makes no sense
I play piano and I did hear them mistakes, but he can still play it and if you keep practicing you'll play it perfect. I still make small mistakes, but try to just go (no one heard it mode)
He's 24 now and still an absolute beauty of a shredder he also can skydive and free fall as gracefully as he plays guitar !
I played this too for a show and I was yelling "thunder!!" 😂
Great guitar playing! I was only just starting to learn guitar for the first time at age 15.
Ahhh the man himself
Same
Yooo same
Im 14 and i think im going to buy one tomorrow and start
I’m 11 playing it. I’ve been having guitar lessons for 5 years
I don’t remember seeing this in Napoleon Dynamite
underrated comment
Omg
Lol.
N. G. Shut up😂
Haha im your 1k like haha
I love how people in the comments are so angry with the crowd lol
He's the kind of person I want to be friends with. I'm glad this video appeared in my recommendations years later.
High schoolers nowadays: wow this is boring.
Me: THUNDER OHAAHAAHAAHAHAA THUNDER
Facts
You've been.... THUNDERSTRUCK
For sure I would've been leaving the talent show hoarse af
It isn't true about high scholers))
My 7th grade social studies teacher (this was in like 2012 mind you), every thursday would play Thunderstruck so loud you could hear it in other classes, I miss his class, and I'm glad he did that, it sparked my love for 70's, 80's, 90's, Rock, Hard rock, and some metal
It would have been awesome if the crowd started doing the "THUN-DER" chant
Actually tho lol
Nah they're busy listening some mumble rap
They probably have never heard thunderstruck or AC⚡DC before.
805Bruin they aren’t old enough
Luka Ferrari 1/100
This was 7 yrs ago,guy more than likely perfected his craft at this point
that was f’ing awsome… this video is 7 years old… i so hope that kid pursued a career playing guitar like that.. he was awsome !!!

Just think of it like the kid with the coca-cola in a Pepsi glass 😂
Hell yeah
I love when he messes up because that shows how raw and earnest this is. He's not some pro, been playing since 2 years old, he's just dedicated, practiced a lot and wanted to showcase his progress. Hell yeah brotherman.
Napoleon Dynamite slays guitar at a local talent show. Good pick my brother!
Give the kid a break. He did really good
Haven't found one comment of people not giving him a break
Why are people say “stop being mean” or “rude” no one is saying that
Sorry but he missed a note this is inexcusable
No one said that idiot.
If this woulda happened at my school every single person woulda been singing at the top of their lungs and made this kid feel like a legend
Same. Nobody at my school would know it and most of them are pretty bad people when they're not in school, but every single one would be bopping up and down, screaming, vibing, and possibly clapping along
You can just see the joy he has when playing...
guy looks like he's having the time of his life, don't he?
Damn, if you ever read this comment, you are incredibly talented.
You nailed this, I'm sure Angus would be proud !
The song is boring if the crowd doesnt yell “THUNDER”
They probably dont know it because of all the nonsense in mainstream now...unless their parents are cool. Lol
Oye
Its obnoxious anyway, he should have went with a good song like Froggy Went A-Courtin'
@@hogant.551 XD
The song is boring if it's AC/DC...

You rock, brother. Keep playing!

The 99% are really the people secretly hating
Am I the non existent % that actually sees the bashing comments

RUclips in 2020-alright now it’s time
Wait for it... wait for it...
Gonna say it now
Gonna do it
Wait for it
Waaaaait
OMG BYE THE TALENT I LOOK UP TO THIS KID SM
Ben: You did a great job!! I've been in front of unappreciative crowds. YOU DO YOUR THING!!!!
Why are you all bashing him? I couldn't do this at 15 alone, let alone go on stage for any crowd.
You go kid. Don't listen to the haters. Rock n' roll this world.
Scarlet Menigoz hands down what you said is cringing especially the last part
NOOB IMVU does it matter bro? Seriously this kid is better than most of the people in the comments, this person is just trying to help him out a bit
Keep the rhythm steady little dude
Who’s even bashing him
Who is making fun of this kid
Everybody get off the kid. He did fine. By now he's even better. What are _you_ doing?
Completing the back in black outro solo
Im playing drums lmao
Im playing drums lmao
AMR15x lol
He’s decent
Being honest, this kid played it better than I did when I was his age. I wasn't able to do this song with out picking the hammer on and pull offs and he plays pretty well. Good on him
I would be the one SCREAMING thunder in the back 😂😂😂
Thunderstruck is more an impressive feat of stamina then skill because the song it's self is very simple on guitar but it kills your forearms.
Ghost Fox true man
Hahahahahah
AMEN BROTHER!!!! Only a player would understand the strength and stamina!
Yeah the tapping section is surprisingly easy , I learned it around the same age, but does definitely start to hurt after a while. That said when I learned it I loved it so much I'd play it all day much to the consternation of my parents lol
@@shayneoneill1506 same
What playing AC/DC as mandatory community service would look like.
McLovin 3533 h yea it should be

Omg this is so damned good, I love it!! Going to show my grandson and I am buying him a guitar as well.
You’re a great grandparent
Can you buy me one too 🥺🥺🥺
EVERYTHING IS OMG PERFECT BESIDES THE CROWD, THE SLAYER T-SHIRT, THE AMP QUALITY, HOW HE LOOKS LIKE HE COULD BE A WEASLEY
Imagine Angus young showing up in the 80s at practice and saying ‘ i came up with a riff last night’.
Thunderstruck came out in 1990
weerob1jnr then it was probably written in the late 80’s
weerob1jnr exactly? Lmao
So what if he hits a few wrong notes, I'm sure he was really nervous. Half of you couldn't even do what he did.
More than half
I'm 16 coming up 17 and I couldn't do that I couldn't play in front of my class let alone the whole school
I'd be too nervous to pick my nose in front of a crowd..let alone play guitar! great job kid!
Thank you for saying that.
i sure couldn’t !! good on the kid
This popped up on my feed and now you've got a subscriber. You're insane dude
I would’ve been in the front ready to flash my girls while screaming the lyrics😔
Best part was the little half smile at the end because he knew he nailed it
Nailed it? He missed every other high note
Nailed it, but every other high note
FeS FeO2 still sounds better than what you could do.
FeS FeO2 at least he had the balls to get up there in front of all his classmates and play it
@FeS FeO2 i enjoyed it.
I don't know what's wrong with you though.
He didn't nail it but, didn't fuck it up either.
he's really good with the left hand. Stop saying that he is bad he's 15 after all. It takes practice to do this. Good job keep it up
elf christmas the right way? Eh
@@elfchristmas3837 Then upload a video of you playing, we will be waiting. : )
Bro he uses one hand like isnt that godly? I wonder how long he cant last jacking it while playing lmao
Age don’t matter it’s about the progress of the player

real
always with a slayer shirt

Why Not?
Always with a Metallica profile pic
Mad respect to this kid, and shame on the crowd
Rock songs are usually hard to perform on a talent show, whether ur singing or playing an instrument
Lucky for this kid that he made it on stage tho, he did his best and no one in the crowd cared
In my end, my school stopped me from performing in the talent but the crowd cared about my audition for it
I don’t why but I keep coming back to this video
Dude it for real looks like Danny Duncan
Tech RAT so true man
Tech RAT I was thinking same thing
Tech RAT I saw it in my feed and thought it was lmao
Tech RAT someone needs to tweet this to him
I was about to comment the same until i saw this
0:45 when girls say the ginger isnt good with his fingers lool
Can we just get a moment of silence to show that he's wearing a SLAYER shirt? Still miss 'em
WTF is wrong with the crowd. I'm thousands of miles away, watching a 5 year old video, headbanging to this
Not everyone listens to the same music as you lmao
A kid that age who even knows what ac/dc is, can play nore than 1 verse on guitar let alone the whole song and has the stones to do it in front of all his peers during one of the most stressful,emotional and psychological times of a persons life(highschool) . ... he gets props all day
Wait 15 year olds and less doesnt know what ac/dc is?
@@naapurinpekka3805 oddly enough, no. Watched a video the other day of kids listening to songs from the 80s and 90s . They had no idea who it was, but they liked some of it.
