Ricky Gervais (As The Office’s David Brent) Teaches Guitar

There are an abundance of guitar tutorials to be found on YouTube but not many are as personal or digressive (mental illness is no joking matter) as the series from Ricky Gervais-created character David Brent. Brent, the office manager and Michael Scott prototype of the UK version of The Office, is not here to teach you chords, instead encouraging “you to teach you” and performing his original “Life on the Road,” an intimate tale about his life as a paper rep.

Learn Guitar with David Brent premiered May 20 as part of YouTube’s Comedy Week.
