which song was the beset

So this is how they discovered jazz?

Many of these songs were probably originally recorded drunk.

When he was sober he sounded very precise, he missed a lot more notes when he was drunk, which is obvious that would happen, but when he was drunk he played with a lot more feel, you could even tell in his face how he was feeling the music a lot harder and it felt like it had more soul to it.

I'd say that when you're sober, you have more of an Eddie Van Halen sound to your playstyle. However, when you're drunk, you got more of a drunk Eddie Van Halen style. Great video.

His drunk playing is better than some people sober playing

When drunk you sound just like Slash. I mean, not great, not terrible, but attitude.

Other than a few missed notes, the biggest difference was timing. I'm a drummer tho, so I notice these things. Overall... really great job. I think you muscle memory took over 95% of it all.

I like how your drunk playing is less on the metronome. It has more feel instead of perfect today’s style playing. Your sober Master of Puppets is so clean on the Tele. I would love to see that complete song played by you as done in your sober clip.

honestly? he's better drunk than i thought he would be

Drunk playing was lit muhahaha

12:00 - 12:05 thats a real emotion. Look at your face when playing sober vs playing drunk. You obviously channel the emotion better drunk, you messed up minimally, which tells me you can actually learn to play flawlessly while being drunk. The feel of the songs you are playing being drunk just conveys your emotion a lot better than when you are sober. Plus the extra added benefit of not over thinking your playing and messing up because you were too nervous. It makes it to where you are actually having more fun playing drunk than sober. Don't get me wrong you play very good sober and hit everything correctly, but it seems more like you are looking at playing sober as more technical than emotional. You know what made Jimi Hendrix such a great guitarist and probably is the best, it wasn't style, charisma, technical playing level or even writing songs, he is considered so great because when he made a mistake he incorporated it and kept on playing, its why when Hendrix played the same song at two different events it was played differently every time he performed a particular song. Its why he is so unique, he would hit a note that was wrong but kept playing with such confidence that no one ever noticed the times he messed up because it was very fluid the way he would just keep a mistake in there and then just keep on going. Many people can play Hendrix songs, yet no one on Earth can play a Hendrix song like Hendrix played it because of his pension for keeping mistakes in his playing. Can really recreate a song when the original writer never played it the same twice.

Perfect 👌🏼 in the middle of him shredding while he was drunk, an ad pops up and it’s him with his free video telling about how to easily learn guitar. I was already convinced

How I think I play Master of Puppets, 15:30 vs how I actually play, 15:45

I love when he says "who the fook is that guy?" and shows himself. 😂

My take away is that the Tele is the most versatile guitar ever - but I think we all knew that

His drunk playing is better than mine sober

Only James Hetfield can play Master of Puppets drunk while singing

Its kind of weird to see one of your videos where you don't act like you are threatening us with a gun.

Incredible playing! I'm in awe! Drunk playing: Phenomenal control considering you're drunk, more creative and off course, slightly dangerous, more soul, more interesting. Sober: Amazing renditions, academically accurate.

I hear a definite confidence boost from the drunk side of your playing. I liked it more than the sober playing.

Brandon: "For this video, im going to be playing, Guitar!" *shows a photo of a man playing a flute*

Me: Damn this guy plays really good even when drunk Master of puppets: hold his drink

As someone who plays shows a tiny bit drunk all the time, I'm insanely jealous of how well you hold it together. I miss power chords sometimes when I'm drunk. XD

I came for the comparison/contrast was _blow away_ by your overall talent.

I should try this "Playing guitar sober thing" it looks promising.

The thing I noticed most is that sober him looks way more focused and drunk him looks like he’s just “feeling” it more. Can be a good or bad thing either way. Personally loved listening/watching the drunk versions 😂

Good guitar player,kick some ass man!

this is the second video that I've seen since I subscribed and I don't think I can unsubscribe after this...

*gets trashed and cant play master of puppets* Runs add for guitar course

It's weird how the drunk takes somehow feel a lot less soulful on the bends. You'd expect the emotions to be doubled and the music would go full feel if you know what I mean, but it's the exact opposite. The drunken bends felt like a teenagers first relationship: not enough commitment.

Reminded me of the first gig our mate had as our bassist. He was so nervous at soundcheck, he made me nervous. i don't get nervous. Both of us continued to drink a mix of whiskey and beer. Our vocalist realised how drunk we were, not impressed. We were like two children on stage. Watching each other, trying to remember our parts, coming in late. It was hilarious, especially afterwards, trying to be serious, while drunk, while our vocalist expressed how unimpressed he was. First and last time! Never again. There's nothing worse than being on stage with double-vision so bad you close one eye, looking like a pirate without an eye-patch. PS I think you needed another shot or two! That was good though

Man, your fingers have a mind of their own… you can’t get them drunk

I really loved this video ! It’s good to see you break the character and just be chill and yourself.

Oh yes, that "play whatever the fuck fits" on johnny b goode is a feeling I can relate

you are so talented! I am sure that it took so much time and effort to get to that point so good job! God bless and Jesus loves y’all

The biggest thing I saw that was obvious technique wise Layla vs “drunk girl” you stopped using your thumb on the bends.

You get a lot more Canadian when you're drunk

I can see you were also hammered when you adjusted your amp settings 🤘🏻 😆 🤘🏻

😂😂😂😂😂muy bueno!!! La mejor lección que he recibido nunca🎉🎉😂😂

Maybe the real drinks were the friends we made along the way.

you should’ve played “Sober” by tool while you were drunk

Makayla(if that's how you spell it) is just lovely! Nice job bro.

Wow I suck playing guitar after seeing this, nice work Brandon!!! :)

I personally found that two beer is the perfect balance between being just enough non-caring, and still be in perfect control of what I’m playing/singing

you know he's drunk when he bends with his pinky

Good shit man i always loved performing drunk in Nashville. It was just a whole other experience with the crowd. Plus the nervousness goes away

This is great, I’m in!

I want to hear the “drunk vs sober improv”

Your playing is good either way

first time here... i was so sure you are a tele guy for some reasonnn, nice work dudee

good to know i dont even sound as good as drunk brandon when im sober

You make way better guitar faces when you're drunk...

I LOVE how much fun you had when playing drunk, i can feel the emotion when you play, despite a few hiccups. I can feel the fun when you play drunk Now do tipsy so you can still focus, AND be loose. Mixture of how its supposed to be AND how you really wanna play it. 👀 First video i ever seen of you and just off of this. I will be subscribing. 🤌🏼🤌🏼

what a great idea for a video lol well done

I could see him getting buzzed. Started to smile a lot more lol

No one: Literally no one: Brandon: Yeah I know this is our first date and all, but you wanna like get drunk and made awkward conversation and watch me shred? Oh and btw, I'm also going to film the ENTIRE thing😘 I love this man

Nice. Very relaxing.

love you guys!

i make way too many mistakes playing drunk. you lose some of your motor function n coordination. so definitely better playing sober but even then i fuck up a bit cause im nervous. basically i just suck unless im playing by myself. lol

Not gonna lie those harmonics on Drunk Child O Mine were pretty nice

FANTASTIC GUITARIST ..!👍🏼👍🏼

I guess you guys weren't ready for that one yet... But your Kids are gonna LOVE it

If playing lead guitar was a field sobriety test I’d let him go on his way.

I think the drunk sweet child o mine actually sounded closer the recording than the sober version

just fucking excellent man. Subbed

It's the final countdown before you hit me with your best *shot*

Drunk or not, I never heard a telecaster sounds so metal like he does😜

Wait he is a guitarist? That is good at guitar? And has a girlfriend? Error

He is an amazing guitar player

man either way this guy is a boss. awesome guitarist

Meanwhile Dimebag Darrel: Hold my beer

damn that tele sounds so good even for high gain

Dude, your tone is DA shit. Great playing!!!

Nice! Fine line!

We can all mutually agree his final countdown drunk was the most passionate, yet hilarious thing ever recorded

I love that she was like “That’s not what it’s called but yeah” 😂👌🏻👏🏻💕

Your face on drunk final countdown when the bend was slightly flat just looked like you were judging yourself so hard lol

i love the inclusion of drunk brandon jamming to the drums in final countdown before starting the solo

“Can you play cliffs of Dover absolutely shitfaced?” *in Canadian/Minnesotan* “Let’s find OOT”

Why did I like the drunken parts better? (Minus Puppets, that was debauchery !) God bless brother

The shred face intensifies with the alcohol so much

His drunk playing is way better than my sober playing! Wrektum approved. Perhaps I should give this a try

When he plays better drunk than I do sober.

Rogue dead guy ale is one of the best beers I’ve found that I really enjoy having while I play

I was expecting and hoping for improvised solos, but this works

this is the first time i've seen him smile this much and it's creeping me out

At least he played Sweet Child o' mine as Slash actually plays it... drunk out of his mind, so good for him, nice way to honor him (yes, I'm aware Slash is not dead)

I have been playing drums since I was 11 now I'm 39 and for sure my playing on a technical side is about the same sober or buzzed. If I'm trying to come up with new grooves/compositions I'm definitely more creative being a little buzzed by far over sober. Just practicing I'm usually sober but when I'm in creative mode I'm definitely going to have a 6 pack and that's when I've always been able to come up with new grooves when drinking hands down.

I'm 54 yrs old plus 1000, that was a great video you all! You play better drunk than I ever have sober! Good job. Make sure you don't time travel back to the early 80s and do a bunch of acid. That may make you sit down one day and type a KZfaq reply to another guitar player!

I was wondering where the "Staccato and Slur" of drunken guitar playing was...and I found it in Johnny B Goode.

brandon's got a gf makes me pissed off but i'm not even mad

I'm sober and the microwave joke was hilarious

Yeah I play guitar myself sounds pretty cool drunk or sober you do a good job I must say I’m a finger style player have to keep myself intact before I play a gig I’ll go out and drink maybe a beer or two and have a little smoke and it mellows me out real nice thanks for the video have a great day you’re cool 😎🎸🎸☮️

Idk why, but just seeing this video has motivated me to practice the guitar more active again, nice

52 week guitar player but drunk, i’ll happily pay for that

Its amazing how well muscle memory takes over

Twisted tea will eff you up!!!! Nothing like trying to get drunk fast lmao I love how the drinker you get the glasses get slammed down harder lmao

I'd argue that a few were better drunk, I feel there was an audible difference simply because it was more fun

I appreciate the shoutout. 🙏Props to your assistant for knowing it isn’t called Time Of Your Life.
