Tears are flowing!! Thank you Ms Sh for allowing me to share my boy with yall.
MP: My pleasure! You know that we been “Fans of Gabe” since you shared his first video here… he deserves his own “fan” page! Please continue to add more of his videos… could not find them all!! TFC!! SH
I sure will. I cant wait to tell him about this.
Made, the third video is really cute. Go Gabe!
Here is his guitar solo on We Will Rock You
Playing National Anthem at Eight Grade basketball game
Love love love the thank you speech and how he’s already learning how to deal with the paps!! So funny. Get used to it Gabe!
Love it! Go Gabe!! “Get that camera outta my face…” Haha!
So glad Gabe got a spot on SH. He is so talented.
HH: We are in awe of Gabe… and have been Gabe fans from the first video provided by his momma, MP!! We love them both!! SH
Gabe,
I love you!!!!
Love,
Your momma
p.s. ‘cept that last part of course. No dying with a bottle of whisky and sleepin tablets. You momma is crazy sometimes. The rest of it yes.You are a shooting a star…all the world will love you …. but not as much as your momma.
Gabe Rocks it! Rocker dude, excellent!!!
AMEN
Yay Gabe! My son is going to be so excited to see these when he gets home (and jealous!), he has only seen a couple. Thank you Ms. SH. And thank you Gabe’s Momma!
Aww, Gabe rocks! “How does it feel to be a winner?” “Get that camera outta my face.” Precious, MP!
Awesome!!
Just for fun. Please forgive his room yall. I give up trying to keep it picked up. My daughter took this one when he was 11 years old playing Guitar Hero. Truly the beginning of it all.
He made up his own guitar part to this and dubbed it over the original
Thank you so much for sharing Gabe’s amazing talent with us!!!
He is awesome! Yup, he ROCKS!
Video quality on this on is bad!! But its cool to hear the crowd react and watch what happens when they call for an encore. This was this year’s talent show performance for the juniors and seniors. This was special! It was my birthday too. I loved everything about this day.
Did I catch that right in the winning video….he has only been playing for 2 years? That is absolutely amazing! He truly is a gifted and talented young man. I wish him all the best….it looks like a career plan! And of course to you MP, for sharing….can’t wait to see what his future brings.
MP, thank you for sharing Gabe with us!
The last video made me cry when the crowd started shouting “Gabe! Gabe!” WOW! That’s just amazing!! He’s so gifted and talented MP! You’re an amazing Mom and I know how proud you are of him. I feel like I know Gabe from reading your comments about him. I have a nephew Billy who would love to play with Gabe. He’s a freshman in college now here at the university where I live. Guitar/music is his life. He has a band and looks very much like Gabe. I smiled, laughed and cried watching all of Gabe’s videos and thinking how much he and Billy would enjoy one another. Keep encouraging him MP. He’s truly an extraordinary young man with a bright future in music. Tell Gabe he has a big fan in Texas!!
Gabe can only be described as shock and awe. Wow just Wow! Gabe has a brilliant future ahead and I am so happy I knew him when! Go Gabe!! Follow your dreams Gabe and live life to the fullest, the world will be at your feet!
I know!!! Awesome!! I’m going to show these videos to my nephew on Thanksgiving. He’s an aspiring 9 year old musician…Gabe certainly rocks!! We’ll be hearing him in the future, I’m sure!! You raised a talented kid, Made!! (As you are well aware!!)
Thank you everyone for your support i more stuff coming i hope yo like it! oh and mom where is the foo fighters vid at
Gabe: How nice of you to stop by! You got fans at SH!! You’re gonna be a great success!! TFC!! SH
WOW ! thanks for being fans, I’m just getting started but i will always remember the folks who have always been here in the beginning, I’ll do my best to make you all proud!
Hi Gabe! Nice to meet you! You are one talented kid, and I know you’ll go far. We’re all grateful that your Mom has shared your talent with us, and we’re rooting for you. And I’m sure you already know it, but you have a wonderful Mom. Keep us posted on your career.
Again THANK YOU! yeah I’m very blessed to have a mom and dad who support me in everything I do the are great! and I promise you will be seeing more video’s in the weeks to come. Thanks again and if anyone happens to know Eddie Van Halen i’d love to meet him!
I post that one a lot. Because the words are soooo profound. Here it is again. I am always so proud of you. See how much braggin I have been doing? I Bet you thought all I did on here was shoot the breeze about crazy people on tv huh?
Gabe played the guitar on this one dubbed over the original. I do want to note that his Crazy Train was not dubbed. It was played with a backtrack containing only the vocals, the sound effect and drums . All the guitar on that one is all him. With the Foo Fighters one he is playing on top of what Dave Grohl recorded. Here it is
I would love to hear you do One Of These Days.
Love me some foo fighters! Gabe do you like Travis Tritt? Tell your mom PJ asked so she doesn’t think I’m just some creeper!
You’re Welcome! Please – can you get me some backstage passes for my girls when you become a big star? I’ ll be the coolest mom ever! You have my name. By the way I have two beautiful daughters around your age. Both are musicians. Just sayin. Lol. Keep on keepin on!
Of course you and your girls can get backstage. I will have to come up with some secret password for all SH readers that have been such an encouragement to him to use to get the tickets.
Well done Gabe! You’ve got great taste in music!! Keep rockin’!!
Gabe, my nephew is a college student and also a musician and has a band in Texas. He listened to your videos and is very impressed with you! He says you’re a very talented musician and he loves the way you play the guitar. Just wanted you to know you have some fans in Texas. I can’t wait for your Mom to share more of your awesome videos with us!
Thank you. And tell your nephew thanks too. He has been working on some new stuff lately. As soon as he videos it I will post.
Awesome Made. My girls and I don’t always share a like for the the same music but we all know talent when we see it. And Gabe- you are quite a talent! And mom and dad- you are what it’s all about. YOU make things possible. Love to all.
Ok thanks I just sent it.
Nice job Gabe!! Now can ya play some TOOL please?
Gabe freestyle
He’s one talented kid.
Thank you. He always impresses me
A few of my second grade boys that I teach would think this is just the coolest thing ever!
Glad to hear it. Thank you so much.
He seems tired on this one but I swan we wasnt Joe Jacksoning him or nuittin.
LOL! It’s clear that this is his passion, how he communicates, not the result of pushing and prodding by mom and dad.
I love the way he plays the blues, so confident. He’s amazing! Go Gabe!
All I can say is W-O-W!!! He’s got an incredible gift, so talented. He makes that guitar really sing! Thank you MP for sharing these with us, can’t wait to hear more!
My, oh, my, Made, are you sure Mr. Gabe does not have his own label yet!!!! WOW WIE!!! I was thinking, just the same, when you gave us a little tease some time ago, Johnny Lang, Chris Whitley, and of course my ever loving Stevie Ray, I HEAR HIS BLUEs more than anything, and I love you just sitting there Mr. Gabe, playing those blues sorrows,. Your MAMA does you proud, and you give us what she said!!! Thank you for letting me hear such a talented young gentleman, and now I must go over to BSL’s site cause have not been there in a while…..lovely lovely………i want to know what blues artists you like……thank you for putting up with cray cray house fraus……lol
Perci, I just read this to Gabe. Thank you for taking the time to listen to his stuff. He loves Stevie Ray Vaughn.and Gary Hoey. Actually his influences are pretty much all over the map. Something about a guy named Dimebag Darrel? EHV of course. And Joe Satorani. And Slash. He has been diggin into some vintage Eagles lately too.
<3Gabe!
I saw Stevie Ray Vaughn open for the Fabulous Thunderbirds back in the day! Still blast SRV music in my car:)
Thats sooo cool. I bet it was a great show. I need to introduce Fabulous Thunderbirds to Gabe. I know he prolly remembers me cranking it too in the car back in that day when I had a super cute day
Oh MP, I am so sorry I missed this when it first posted! I am so excited to see this,you must be incredibly proud, Shoot, I’m proud and I’ve only ever seen his clips on line! Thank you Ms.SH for posting them all together like that, what a treat. Before we know it our Gabe will be one of the musical guests at one of David Foster’s Dinner parties! Way to go Gabe! Way to go MP!
sd: Gabe is so talented… that’s not an unrealistic scenario! Gabe got fans at SH!! TFC!!! SH
lol. That would be sumpin huh? One request, no SWINE, because I can just imagine her melodramatic hind-end breaking out in hives if he busts out some crazy train. And um… Kim can do her ponytail helicopter move but Kyle is gonna need to leave the splits at the door.
MP: You better be there, too!! Adrienne would be there handin’ out free LED cell phone cases! LOL!! TFC!! SH
Oh you know it. Yolanda would have me at fig & goat cheese pastries. I will be there with my own line of rock-n-roll shoes. Partner with Fender or sumpin? Whatever the case, I would lead the conga line.
WOOHOO! Apple doesn’t fall far at all in this case. Congrats to Gabe and Gabe’s mommy who rocks us on SH!! xoxo
Ditto!
Thanks Antonella and ChemGeek. Love my son so of course I think he sounds fabulous. Its reassuring to hear from others that he has “got it”
He’s “GOT IT”
Well, this just made my day. (No pun intended.)
Awe. Thank you Inkpop. I am glad you like his stuff. Ima tellin yall he gonna be famous one day. And he already knows momma dont want no Cadillac… Dodge Viper please
I hope yall dont mind if I put this video on Gabe’s page. This lil guy sums it all up so perfectly. No matter what your dream, your challenge,your goal, if you can believe in yourself and just keep practicing, you will get the hang of it. I know it. And then you can feel happy of yourself and above all, thumbs up for Rock and Roll.
My wish is for everyone to be inspired to feel happy of themselves.
This is plum cute!
A little sunshine spreader that one.
That’s the spirit! Thank you Made.
You’re welcome. That kid is just too adorable. And very smart.
Merry Christmas Yall
Love the fresh take on some of my Xmas faves!!! Thank you!
You’re welcome. Thats how he do.
Clearly Gabe is a legend in the making. Love the Christmas medley. Thanks for the beautiful music and the glow. Love ya made and Gabe! Merry Christmas!
I love you too. It was a very good recital today. So many talent children. Some just getting started and lots and lots and lots of girls with guitars… I call that the Taylor Swift effect. Gabe has an amazing teacher.
MP: Love Gabe!! And loved how the camera caught a bit of the reverb. A great Christmas present! Thank you… and Gabe!! TFC!! SH
Thank you. Love you right back. Told Gabe I posted this here and he was like “what did they say? what did they say?” So yalls feedback does mean a lot to him. We been ribbin my husband tonight over the breathing you can hear in the video. I think he gets more nervous than Gabe.
I heard unusual medley on the radio of Jimmie Hendrix playing Christmas carols. It was amazing but Jimmie got nuthin’ on Gabe! Gabe really has that much talent and you can tell he loves his music. I can’t begin to predict how far this young man will go. Sky is the limit ……
He was doing the Jimmi Hendricks version of little drummer boy.
He is so talented! You are so wise to nurture what is surely a gift from up above. When I hear Gabe play I know that it is God given talent plus hard work and determination. Thank you for sharing Gabe with us, makes me feel special.
Awe thank you Pittypat. He sure does work hard on it. But his teacher tells him he has a special gift. A unique sound that other guitarist can hear in his bends that he has put his own touch to it. He does like to mimic his greatest influences though. The Grinch that you hear in that medley was pure Gary Hoey. See if you can hear it
I got chills during Auld Lang Syne. It was beautiful! Merry Christmas Made and Gabe!
Thank you Embee. I loved that part too. Hopefully I will be able to talk him into some unplugged stuff soon.
Yeah its like that yall
I’m so glad MsSH created this special place to showcase Gabe’s music.
He’s the best there is. Go Gabe!
MP, that’s a mighty talented son you have there, and I’m so happy for the both of you! No doubt he’ll go far, it’s nice when kids figure out their passion so young in life and then work so hard at it! Your young man already has his very own Fan Club, and no doubt we’ll be seeing him some day doing big things. It’s nice he found his passion at such a young age! Oh, and his mom is pretty terrific, too!
Sorry. I dont know whats going on with these new videos of Gabe. I can see that they uploaded to his channel but when I try to put them here they dont show up.
Nevermind. Must have been on my end. oops.
Gabe, Just came across these ‘new’ additions! (I am waaayyy behind on my reading here at SH!) You are very talented and your many fans here at SH wish you all the very best! Do you play other instruments as well? My daughter plays piano but can play a little guitar (not like you, though!!!). Is there any cross over that comes with your talent? I’ll bet so.
We also love your smart and sassy mom!
Hope you’re having a good year!
Nikki
Thank you Nikki. Right now its just guitar. He wants to attend Belmont one day so we are thinking that piano will have to be in his future pretty soon. Momma bear wants him to sing too but… so far… no dice.I know he can because he has a good ear, learns most of his covers by ear. oh well… one day. Congrats on your daughter and her talent. So nice when these kids find a passion and excel at it.
Hi@Made: Havent been around lately cuz it turns out I need Hormone Replacement Therapy (YMI I know) Been feeling like crappola. PJ (sorry to post on Gabe’s space btw)
Hi Pj. Sorry I just now saw your message. I hope you are feeling better. Here is a soothing original tune from Gabe
MP: Go Gabe!!! TFC!! SH
