ok, it's official... I'm selling the guitars and taking up the kazoo...

[Pietro]

WOW! That is AMAZING!

[strat56]

But can she play Proud Mary or Wildwood Flower???? :D

Just kidding, she's really great.

[dplight]

The few mid teen kids I know have never heard of Van Halen much less been able to play eruption almost perfectly. Seems she looked a little bored now and then to boot.

[Briggs]

It's kinda crazy. She posted the vid 3 days ago. When I first saw it, she had about 140k views, now it's over 2 million...in 3 days!! :eek:

[tom]

even crazier! i just got a call from CNN trying to track her down to have her on the show. apparently a friend of ours, Renaud LOUIS-SERVAIS in france, who has a video on our site posted the original video and they are tracking her through him. so i'm three degrees separated from the 14 year old phenom.

[markus]

Yup, she's one of Renaud's students!

I think she'd look pretty cool on CNN playing something with an A on the headstock... :D

[mgibson]

Wow. Respect.

Ignoring the headstock, she has got some competition from the other gender. Here's 14 year old Quinn Sullivan. He just wrapped up a gig at the Crossroads festival at Madison Square Garden. Sure it's not eruption. But I love me some blues, and this kid is the real deal with that.

Here he is at Buddy Guy's Legends in Chicago:

Here's a link to a Rolling Stone article about him. A clip from the show at the Garden is at the middle of the article, and his solo starts at 2:36:

Can you say Joe Bonamassa...

He's greatly influenced by Eric Clapton, he's a good player and singer, plays with a lot of emotion for a 14 YO. Personally I've never been a big fan of the "woman tone" but he has great potential.

I still dig the whole "Bloodline" thing. Gobs of talent, creativity and versatility, IMHO!

in one moment she get really boring :D
new generation guys ...
not to bragging my Son ,but he could play Eruption when he was 13-14 as well .
maybe not so clean and precise as the young lady (he doesn't like to practice too much) , but sure with more macho authority and Rock'n Roll touch.
this type of playing is in the blood of new generations, by default ..on the same way , we ,older generation have The Blues ! ;)

Both very talented but the soul and emotion of Quinn's playing is just amazing- love the dynamics and the ease he goes in and out of his solo!

Thanks for sharing!
