"Can I borrow your phone I want to call my mom" Priceless

Yo Kiss Guy! I was there! You really stepped up to the plate and rocked it! What a killer show! Glad you got that experience and sounds well deserved to a cool, humble dude! Keep on Rocking! đđŒđ€đŒđž

That viral video is one of my all time favorites. Anytime I need to smile, it's definitely my go-to. Awesome job Yayo, you nailed it! And as a mom myself, I love that you immediately wanted to call your mom to share your excitement in the moment. â€

Dave Grohl could put you in the band permanently. You added youth to the band. Foo Fighters got even better with its performance. Kiss Guy, you rock!!!!!

Years and years ago I was lucky enough to play with Bob Weir from The Grateful Dead, met him before a show in Marin with a buddy, he asked if I played and then said "well let's go then" and we walked on stage. Crowd was small, it was a small venue but for me to be able to play with an icon like Weir was the highlight of my life as far as music goes. No one filmed it, only a couple of my buddies witnessed it, but I have it in my mind forever.

Genuinely unreal performance and I loved the chemistry YoYo instantly had with Taylor
-
That interview brought a tear to my eye. Magic. Just magic.
-
Dunno if you'll see this, but, Yayo, be as weird as you want to be you're doing it well. I still like going and watching that performance when i feel like crap. Your joy up there on stage always brings a smile to my face, without fail.
-
Love how raw this interview is! it really showcases how humble he is as a person. I've had to watch that video 4 dozen times over the past few years and stand by the fact i believe there wasn't a more deserving person for that experience. Great job YAYO!!
-
The only Foo Fighters song that I ever listen to or watch on youtube is Yayo's version of Monkey Wrench. Just magical.
-
I donât know how many times Iâve watched the video playing monkey wrench and every single time I watch it I just get blown away by how much I can see that you are having the time of your life. I also have seen and heard your music and it just shows that youâre a very talented artist.

The night this happened I was working in Midland, TX. in the oil fields. One of our fuel guys came walking into our building and said, âOne of my friends was just on stage with Foo Fighters.â Quite cool.
-
His guitar solo was on a professional level ... he ripped it ..
-
Iâve wondered what Yayo has been up to! Glad to see him and hear what happened from his perspective! I watched that moment like millions of other FF fans. It was epic! Kiss Guy should have been invited to play at the âlastâ Kiss concert too!
-
I remember seeing the video in 2018 before it went viral. I was so happy for this dude and I remember thinking âthis guy basically just won American Idol in 10 minutes by playing 1 songâ.
-
To date, you're still the killinest player they've had on stage, you nailed it Yayo đđ
-
"if god wants us to rock, then we'll rock" what a fucking legend

Hey man, I love the vid of you with the FF. I watched it many times and it makes me always happy. The way you took over the show, amazing!!! The energy, the way you assimilate with the band, I donât think that I will see this again. As I saw in an comment, â nice that you let the FF play in your showâ nailed it. You have talent and let us hear more off you!!!! Love you yayoâ€
