What do you think of this band...

The problem is not so much the band, but the proliferation of video recording devices and the ease with which you can share the results with the rest of the world.

Everyone has to start somewhere, and when you are new at this band thing, no matter how well your rehearsals are going, playing live in front of an audience is a whole new challenge. I bet there's few people here who didn't take a couple of gigs to find their feet in a live situation.

It also highlights the pitfalls of doing covers. If that was a song they'd written themselves, you'd probably never have noticed and might have even thought that it was quirky and interesting.

Once it gets going it has a certain Brittenesque/Bartokesque bitonal charm!

I had tears running down my cheeks when I watched this ... the intro gave no clue to the fury that was about to unfold :lol:

That's it, I'm giving up. Even when I play well I can't do as well as that. :D

Thought it would be another Deep Sunshine post, glad it's not but Holy...

Sometimes, as above, I think these people are just starting out and are unfortunate to end up on Youtube. Other times I have to chalk it up to the [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunning%E2%80%93Kruger_effect"]Dunning-Kruger Effect[/url].

It's the girl with the pink guitar that kills it, the guy with the strat was doing OK, the lack of a drummer is never easy when you are young.

I've had the privilege of witnessing that man (and his musical partner) live and in person. Brilliantly mad. :)

This why I prefer originals, nobody notices when you screw up lol, this would still sound bad even if it was an original song.

At least they had the cojones and get up there. And infront of school, there is no tougher crowd!

Sure about that?
