This is good for a bunch of kids.

I thought this was a very good job by a bunch of kids that couldn't be any older than 9-10 years old. Sadly, they sound better than some of the adult cover bands I've seen in my area.

Indeed. The kid singing cracks me up at times too. But overall, they all did a great job. Especially the little girl playing the guitar solo.

It is kinda messed up that they didn't show their basist but once in the whole vid, but oh well, thats just our role, isn't it?

But whats really scary is thinking how good all of them are gonna be given 15 more years or so at least, especially that little girl on lead! I was d@mned impressed!

Yeah, that greatly undermined their tribute band credibility. They gave a much bigger role to the bass player than Metallica ever did.

I am watching this video and I am thinking... I HEAR BASS... I DO NOT SEE BASS! Finally I see the rascal at the end... did not even look like he was plugged into anything. I had to assume that the dude on the far left was a left handed bassist and I just could not see his gear.. Nope...

Ahhh well.... but as said.. that is what we signed up for when we took on the groove section

I take it you haven't seen Trujillo's crab walk in this video.

The drummer is my favorite, but the complete lack of any sense of self from the three guitar players was a refreshing change.
Have to agree about the vocalist - lots of confidence, but not much reason for it. If he gets to work on his singing he'll probably be a good front man though.
Now what was the guy off to the right doing? Seriously, why couldn't they have him closer to the rest of the band and why couldn't the camera have gone there at least one time. Maybe he was just a studio musician doing a pick up gig?

All I could see of the bass player @ the end was a shadow, at it looked to me like it was larger than the kids. Is it possible he is an adult, and since the vid was to showcase the kids, he wasn't shown? Might have been the lighting, though.

I love the singer doing his hair through the entire intro and the little girl killing it on a guitar twice the size of her
