holy bad! haha great video
2:42 Perfect character for what just happened…
you are not going to learn how to play guitar this way.. I tell you
Their “Smoke on the Water” is a new level of bad.
*clap clap*
are everyone at the verge hipsters?
its funny because he is bad hehe
he looks much better with the beanie on.
I think we know why it’s called “Year of Rock” (emphasis on year)
But it looked cool.
this is still pretty sweet I am going to give it a try later
which way do you recommend and I am serious no sarcasm i am just curious
is everyone on the internet a douchebag?
Recorded this before I could finish my morning coffee. You can see it on the window sill.
can we see a follow up with you playing the full song
this is painful
Awesome!
I love this guy, please have him do everything, love the glasses, the elvish hat.. Lmao! Hilarious, go Ben Hopper Go! I believe in you! Please upload a video with him just rocking the entire riff like a pro!
“This guitar shit ain’t easy I’m tellin’ ya”
dear god this is painful.… but everyone needs to start somewhere
Oh wow, rule #1 of the guitar you can’t just use one finger the whole time lol.
Nope, just stylish.
Thanks guys I’ll try it out!
I sorry I have to do this but:
*Is everyone at The Verge a hipster?
I had trouble reading the comment that’s all
Awesome tip. I have always wanted to learn guitar and this can be a fun way to do so.
everybody needs to start .. but if you cant play “Seven nation army just” by hearing it .. some online guidance application is not what you need 🙂
does everyone that uses theverge hate hipsters?
hipster 4lyfe
I cannot recommend YoR to beginners as it stands. It doesn’t cover basic stuff such as how to hold the guitar and how to hold a pick. Without further guidance beginner’s are likely to develop bad habits.
I enjoyed this. Ben Popper, you are awesome. I hope to see your beautiful face more often.
ha brilliant!
I watched basic guitar lessons on youtube and simultaneously tried to play easy songs (metallica and stuff) looked for more cool songs to play, got the tabs from ultimateguitar — watched more lessons specific to that song (yt channel guitarjamzdotcom is good). now I am in guitar school to learn scales and to play from scores instead of tabs
the reason why I my comment is so negative because that program is nothing more than playing guitar hero on playstation.
Thank you for this comment 🙂 I agree after trying the program myself.
Learn the basics first like chords and actually being able to read tabs is important.
douche
This if for noobs
