Now play Smoke on the Water and enjoy the tsunami.

The Guitar Center employee on the other side of the building be like “I sense a disturbance in the force”

[koolaidmanscousin]

Guitar Center employee: You're clear for precision airstrike

[mr.turtle]

“I guess no one heard it”
My guy they already called the police

[Peter_S_]

Please no House of the Rising Smoke on the Stairway to Freebird.

[rattler]

You're good. Playing Smoke on the Water would bring out the snipers.

[fishypaw]

Silly, but funny. It is hard, when you're a beginner in a guitar shop, because most of the riffs you have been taught, are the "forbidden" ones.

[blackoutlol]

Fun fact: the song is called stairway to heaven because it’s what you’ll be walking up if you attempt to play it anywhere near a guitar store.

As a GC employee... I’m just glad is not smells like teen spirit or enter sandman...

[thepunksofprestidigitation]

I worked at the guitar center on sunset back in 2001. The guitar dept set up smoke machines behind the amps and would smoke anyone out that was playing anything annoying

[GMC-hrif]

They don’t recognize that as a forbidden riff. We’re getting old.

[gutsrage]

If you where trying not to draw attention you chose the right guitar 🎸 😂🤘

[lessroffensive]

Marty schwartz my man good to see your still going hard I learnt so many riffs from you man

[fingergunsgopewpew]

This is the equivalent of a sax player warming up with Careless Whisper

[noernater]

Me: vibing to good sounding riff

Guitar players: 😱😤🤬😖😭

[radmed]

Marty your one of the good ones dude. At least what I see publicly. Thank you for your contribution to guitarists.

[BeanMartinVEVO]

When he said “I’m just going to play it quietly, ” I was expecting it to be obnoxiously loud

[saintjabroni]

As an ex-GC employee, anything a customer would play was better sounding than the Guitar Center’s PA music playlist.

[mika]

Well just bc it's "overplayed" doesn't make it less valuable as a beginner piece. It's beautiful and fairly simple.

[jonsmet]

If everyone could be that quiet whatever they play instead of taking themselves for the undiscovered slash
