Hi.
Hi.
Nice to meet you.
You're incredible.
Thank you.
You're amazing.
You're nine years old.
Thank you.
And you've only been
playing for two years?
Yes, 2 and 1/2 years.
2 and 1/2 years.
That's unbelievable.
I mean that's-- so, did you
play any instrument before you
decided to start this?
No.
Nothing?
No.
Really all I did
was just probably
play video games on the
PS4 and that was it.
[LAUGHTER]
Yeah.
Yeah, this is different.
So you just-- what made
you start wanting to play?
My dad took me to an AC/DC
concert 2 and 1/2 years ago,
and I was on my Pop's
shoulders, and I said,
I want to do that for
the rest of my life.
But I really didn't
start playing until I was
7 which was like a month after.
Oh, you waited a month.
Yeah.
Yeah, when I was
seven, my parents
didn't take me to AC/DC.
So then you start playing
guitar, and you took lessons?
Yeah, I took lessons
for about two years.
And then my dad
started teaching me.
Your dad teaches you.
OK, but I heard that
you can hear a song
and then just start playing it.
Yeah.
Pretty much.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It takes me like a couple
of tries to play it.
Oh, it takes you
a couple of tries.
OK.
So you can't just start playing
without a couple of tries?
All right, well OK.
So and you have like a
great look about you too.
You have dreadlocks,
you have a hat.
So you really stand out.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Um, yeah.
Yeah, and then you make-- you
know a lot of guitar players,
I've noticed, make a lot of
faces because they really--
like you become one
with the music, right?
Yeah, every note really
makes a different emotion
from our face.
Right.
And sometimes I start
crying when I'm--
Really?
Because the music
starts taking over me.
Yeah.
That's beautiful that you are
that-- you know, obviously,
and it looks like you are
like a part of that music.
That's incredible.
So you came here from Australia.
I know that your
family is here, and I
know that you want
to go-- hi, family.
I know that you want to go to
Disneyland while you're here.
Yeah.
So we're going to send all of
you tomorrow to Disneyland.
Cool.
Yeah.
[APPLAUSE]
All right, we'll be right back.
