I don't put much faith into "lesson" videos where the teacher is drinking a PBR.

What an idiot.

He looks like he's about 15. I don't think I would take advice from someone who is 3 times younger than some of my basses.

Oh, and PBR is sold where I live.

I don't think we are actually supposed to take it seriously... are we? Between the PBR, the high-pitched, adolescent voice and the profanity-laced diatribe, I found my attention wandering a little......slightly. Funny vid for sure.
