  • MacBookForMe, on 10/04/2008, -1/+37That's so cool and creative:)
    • TomRemixed, on 10/05/2008, -0/+12Even cooler and more creative would be 3 guitars playing 1 kid.
    • tabion, on 10/05/2008, -0/+3How about 3 guitars and 1 old man?

      I'm not kidding.
      • KillPenguin, on 10/05/2008, -0/+1That's less difficult than it might appear. He's pretty much only using one guitar and adding an odd note from the others here and there. And the other guitars are tuned open so he doesn't even need to touch the fretboard on them. Not to say it's all that easy though.
    • Huangism, on 10/06/2008, -1/+1the kid that's playing the guitar standing need to get his own guitar and learn how to play and the kid tapping on the guitar need to get a drum set and learn to play drums
  • brevo, on 10/04/2008, -1/+14Nice :)
  • lovemorgul, on 10/04/2008, -0/+21This is pretty impressive! The best part is towards the end. Badass...
    • Jeremyz0r, on 10/05/2008, -1/+3Personally, it was towards the middle when it picked up.
  • Akraz, on 10/04/2008, -0/+14awesome
  • louiebaur, on 10/04/2008, -0/+22That is different for sure. Very creative!
  • fuzzlog, on 10/04/2008, -0/+51Wow this is amazing. Also dugg for the minimalist web page with no add.
    • crazygamer67688, on 10/05/2008, -0/+4dugg for not knowing how to spell ad
    • fuzzlog, on 10/05/2008, -0/+1Damn, I knew I should have listened to my imaginary friend. You're right I can't spell anything.
  • muleskinner, on 10/04/2008, -0/+19Very very impressive. its nice to see creative musicians like this on digg.
  • jbarefoot, on 10/04/2008, -0/+393 Kids = Trace Bundy

    3 kids playing one guitar may be impressive but this guy can pretty much do everything they are doing but by himself.

  • Kizilbash, on 10/04/2008, -1/+13Three guitar players
    One guitar
    Back in the garage
  • AmyVernon, on 10/04/2008, -0/+7that's a pretty cool idea. kudos to them...
  • japface, on 10/05/2008, -1/+9cool but this isnt a new idea either.
  • Allivian, on 10/05/2008, -17/+5You know one person could do this...?
    Recording program. Reason, Audacity, Pro Tools.

    Microphone + DAW + Multiple Tracks = This song.
    • AZTriGuy, on 10/05/2008, -2/+9You're missing the point

      ***** IT! WE'LL DO IT LIVE!!!!
    • Blandyman, on 10/05/2008, -0/+1Just because something can be done with technology, doesn't mean it's not remarkable.

      Sometimes the fact that it's done by people rather by some sophisticated (and easy-to-use) automated process makes it much better.
  • RaynOfDarkness, on 10/05/2008, -4/+563Kids1Guitar?
    • trancemin, on 10/05/2008, -32/+5HAHA I get it a reference to 2girls1cup. That's awesome because 2girls1cup is 2 words and 2 numbers and so is 3kids1guitar. So, there is a sort of commonality in the way the words and numbers are put together. That makes it funny.
    • marnaq, on 10/05/2008, -0/+9I came here to upvote this comment. I knew it was here before I clicked.
      • Blandyman, on 10/05/2008, -1/+1upvote?
      • schmalzbauer, on 10/05/2008, -0/+0Yeah you know, voting a comment up, as opposed to downvoting, which would be the opposite of upvoting. In that case, you would vote something DOWN. It's science.
  • hvsahin, on 10/05/2008, -2/+23Did anyone else notice the guy standing up actually drop-tuned and re-tuned the guitar in the middle of the song? Holy freaking crap.
    • lpcustom, on 10/05/2008, -0/+4Drop tuning a guitar with a fixed bridge on the fly isn't hard at all.
      Lets see him do it with a Floyd Rose.
    • kenplaysviola, on 10/05/2008, -0/+4You haven't seen timpani players, have you?
  • ericthegreat, on 10/05/2008, -7/+2Excellent. Very impressive
    • ryansimbalist, on 10/05/2008, -1/+7That's why there's a digg button.
  • ace429k, on 10/05/2008, -5/+8HEY!
  • crtjer, on 10/05/2008, -3/+13Imagine if every kid who played Guitar Hero or Rock Band just did this instead. I'm all for those video games but some kids don't realize how much talent they potentially have.
    • dafragsta, on 10/05/2008, -1/+5uuuh.... what if they do both. What if SOME of them were playing guitar long before GH ever came out? Oh, I'm sorry, you only understand things in sensational narratives.

      /guy who played guitar for 20 years before picking up and LOVING Guitar Hero 2.
    • bdfariello, on 10/05/2008, -0/+3I was half-expecting this to be a guitar hero video, to be honest.
  • adammharvey, on 10/05/2008, -7/+2ok that very very good.
  • digitaldarkage, on 10/05/2008, -1/+17These kids are pretty amazing. Someone had just recommended that I watch the Halo theme song and that is the exact same basement and kids . You should check it out, their version is really well composed.

    • mcphatty, on 10/05/2008, -0/+3that girl sure could rock the violin
    • thelostviking22, on 10/05/2008, -0/+3that was pretty awesome. not gonna lie.
    • dosher199, on 10/05/2008, -0/+3Must have taken a fair while to set up all those effects.
  • blinker265, on 10/05/2008, -4/+1that was kick ass
  • amonthei, on 10/05/2008, -7/+1I think the bass line was added later. There's no way you can get that kind of sound by just tapping the frets.
    • GiggleStick, on 10/05/2008, -0/+1People are digging you down, but I was wondering the same thing. Can someone explain? Is that really where the bass notes are coming from?
  • ElSantos, on 10/05/2008, -0/+3Reminds me of Kaki King, except she's just one person. Still good, though.
    • jonborthwick, on 10/05/2008, -0/+2that's what i thought of. this video is amazing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bbJnwk3GBiM
    • rabidmonk, on 10/05/2008, -0/+01- That 'song' was just a series of ugly noises which made my ears bleed.

      2- She holds the guitar like a retarded person.

      3- She seems very pretentious or the video seems pretentious, I can't figure out which.
    • dreamofrevenge, on 10/22/2008, -0/+0Oh!! I didn't see your comment. Yes, Kaki King could totally blow up that song.
  • Apokalyptik, on 10/05/2008, -0/+3So the song is by Rusted Root... but which song is it? I only have the "When I Woke" album. :(
  • eelwrolyat, on 10/05/2008, -0/+5They would own a talent show.
  • wondertwins, on 10/05/2008, -1/+2hey!
  • bmc31190, on 10/05/2008, -3/+2youd think they wouldve recorded it again when they weren't behind the beat so much.
    • bmc31190, on 10/06/2008, -0/+1i dont know why people keep digging me down, theres like 6 noticeable times that they're behind the beat.
  • RichMig, on 10/05/2008, -0/+3My back hurts just watching the guy on the E string.
  • dropbox, on 10/05/2008, -0/+4This is the best thing I've seen all week.
  • Phisch27, on 10/05/2008, -0/+2Thats Corporeal. They are the group behind the High School Halo talent show. They also played at E3 last year. They all went to my high school...
  • jwatts07, on 10/05/2008, -0/+4Its nice to see something very creative and VERY original on Digg.

    Real Guitars FTW!!!
  • HoraceBalthasar, on 10/05/2008, -0/+9I kinda like this one better.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i4BYMvVvMg0
  • Julianou, on 10/05/2008, -0/+4Definitely my favorite: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dXYHYbDxr9g
  • cat5, on 10/05/2008, -0/+53 kids 1 guitar - bah. Check out Andy McKee - 1 man, 1 guitar, sounds like 2 or 3 people at times.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nmE3QaGetn4
  • mugwumpz, on 10/05/2008, -5/+1The main guy was the weakest link. The percussion and bass added a lost, but the main guy playing was completely uninspired...especially the lead licks.

    Should have been titled, "The Inspiration Was Better Than The Execution", by Por Too Ning.
    • GiggleStick, on 10/05/2008, -0/+5Those other guys were making him nervous. He doesn't actually know them, they just sort of snuck up on him while he was playing.
  • andarnold, on 10/05/2008, -0/+2Someone has alot of time on their hands.
    • Amadeus2490, on 10/05/2008, -2/+1And a lot of hands on their guitar.

      AH HAHAH! AH HAHAHA!! AH HA!!. . .HA!. . .heh. . .eh heh. . .

      . . .guys?
    • rodrigo74, on 10/05/2008, -0/+1Sure, the only reason why you are not doing equally creative and skilled stuff is because you have so little time, doing all the other stuff you do, right?
      May I ask what is so relevant that you are doing with YOUR time?
    • flapanthers87, on 10/05/2008, -0/+2Questioning someone's free time makes no sense when YOU'RE ON THE INTERNET
  • IanLacy, on 10/05/2008, -0/+2That was awesome.
  • downwithwilco, on 10/05/2008, -2/+3meh
  • Pahtcub, on 10/05/2008, -3/+1Creative yes, not all that "impressive"
    • rodrigo74, on 10/05/2008, -0/+4Please indulge us with your own impressive feats..
  • leif777, on 10/05/2008, -0/+3i wonder what else these boys do together...
  • DrReaper, on 10/05/2008, -0/+2Love it. Great works guys.
  • spectxim, on 10/05/2008, -0/+2Youth and talent... Can't do anything but watch in awe.
  • willster580, on 10/05/2008, -2/+3Older than the universe.
  • victor22, on 10/05/2008, -0/+2I think I'm a pervert, but that looked like a gang-bang video.
  • jacktheripperr, on 10/05/2008, -0/+2sounds like it could be the intro to a metallica song in the beginning... nice
  • ja4444, on 10/05/2008, -1/+21 man, 2 guitars, maximum cheese
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8fV2aGO83l4
  • t4stringer, on 10/05/2008, -1/+2cool but still insanely old
  • offrdbandit, on 10/05/2008, -4/+1It is impressive, but I have a question that bugs me.

    At first I thought it was remarkable someone had such an idea, but this presented a bigger question: how did the guy who came up with this idea ask the others to go along?

    "Hey will you two help me play my guitar?"
    "Hey you guys wanna three-man this guitar?"
    "Hey I've got this idea for a song, but I need your hands?"

    Logistically, I can't see a way to circumvent the gaydome.
    • JustinHopewell, on 10/05/2008, -0/+2As you can see, the initial discomfort was well worth the effort.

      Some people are comfortable enough with their sexuality that they don't worry about these things.
  • nesbitt9, on 10/05/2008, -0/+3I knew I recognized that basement.
