I don't know the context of this but it's kind of hilarious

darianbr · 2012-09-13T14:26:59+00:00

Haha. Qatar hero.

McFro · 2012-09-13T07:32:08-07:00

He's clearly a Bard...and a bad ass one at that.

Serengaeth · 2012-09-13T06:52:26-07:00

He's using Inspire Courage (+1), obviously.

jzzanthapuss · 2012-09-13T17:15:18+00:00

came here to make a joke about playing you the song of his people, then saw the video of him singing. he's singing that we don't have to fight and kill each other. and then someone started cutting onions in here.

Repost but still an awesome story behind it. And I'd have to say he would be the bravest man in that group, and if you doubt the logic in having someone sing to you in a firefight, look at history and drummer boys, a drummer boy that plays well puts fire into the hearts and souls of the men around him, and that fire and soul will transform into a burning fighting spirit that will drown their enemies.

And in the posted picture, remember which side won.

Edited to fix English.

He is obviously a Bard that is buffing his party with various songs.

AutoEuphoria · 2012-09-13T04:39:23-07:00

Filming of the "Banjo" movie

DerManiac · 2012-09-13T07:50:59-07:00

He's the minstrel. He's the healer in the party.

"all we are saying is give peace a chance"

NJSpradlin · 2012-09-13T09:57:08-07:00

I wouldn't have used 'hilarious' as my descriptor for this picture. "Awesome" works better. You have to remember the seriousness of what must, because you admitted not knowing, be going on in the background. Look, assume... "There was a firefight!" People are dying.

That man is awesome, no matter which side he's on. He's inspiring his friends by standing with them and playing. Awesome, but not funny.

Read the posted article, though. It's good stuff.

idkfa7 · 2012-09-13T07:31:58-07:00

What the hell is in his mouth?

snorlax51 · 2012-09-13T09:15:49-07:00

My favorite part is the guy on what looks to be a 30cal wearing his battle sandals.

ajschlecht · 2012-09-13T11:16:13-07:00

Here, let me play you the song of my people.

RealLifeTim · 2012-09-13T11:20:49-07:00

This picture always makes me think about tf2 engie's taunt. Hah

mindstormy · 2012-09-13T12:02:57-07:00

It is called larping and that man is a level 20 Bard.

papertiger12 · 2012-09-13T12:27:17-07:00

Every sensible DnD group has a bard.

Duraken · 2012-09-13T12:39:25-07:00

Why do you think there is always music in your FPS games? Thank Mr. Banjo

jacksonticks · 2012-09-13T13:05:51-07:00

Just goin to war. In ma sandalz.

erikmar · 2012-09-13T20:11:38+00:00

It was taken during the revolution in Libya. A lot of people said it was fake, but I don't know/remember how that discussion ended.

edorob01 · 2012-09-13T13:12:55-07:00

Clearly a middle-eastern type of warcry

Jeezum_Crepes · 2012-09-13T13:32:01-07:00

Can't believe that guy fights in sandals with all that hot brass everywhere

Rebootkid · 2012-09-13T13:45:44-07:00

Saw that picture and thought of this: http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0004.html

varrien · 2012-09-13T14:30:38-07:00

You spoony bard!

DatSloppyTuna · 2012-09-13T15:10:31-07:00

looks like the Fallujah Pop Festival was a big hit

tamnoswal · 2012-09-13T17:13:03-07:00

WAR! Hugh! Good God Y'all!

remhawk99 · 2012-09-14T00:18:39+00:00

"how come I always have to hold the guitar?" "Because Faad, Iron man really psyches us up for revolution and stuff."

burnshitfuckschool · 2012-09-14T01:39:47+00:00

i think the context might be photoshop

blaghart · 2012-09-13T20:12:37-07:00

I hate to be a downer but seeing this again made me think of this :( right in the feels...and it only makes me realize the balls this man must have, regardless of what he's singing, to be standing in the middle of a firefight with no guns or armor playing his guitar.

rotato · 2012-09-14T03:25:09+00:00

I like this version way more

sevenam · 2012-09-13T23:18:32-07:00

his job is to keep the morale of the troops high

lizzyk · 2012-09-13T20:34:41+00:00

Hm.. so you saw random violence, are unaware of it's origin, and decided to post it because you thought it was hilarious??? .... Downvote

lolhii · 2012-09-13T04:11:58-07:00

Did it make you laugh?

Odd.

VinnieChant · 2012-09-13T04:39:58-07:00

Obvious photoshop is obvious
