Roland Rock Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 (edited) He's not annoying, he's just at the wrong gig :-) FYI, if you see some mocking comments, it's because this video has gained infamy due to multitudinous postings on BC I'm going to watch it again, though, for old time's sake :-) Edited August 26, 2012 by Roland Rock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigRedX Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 The drummer is far more entertaining than the guitarist who can't even be bothered to replicate the very distinctive tones of some of the tracks the band are covering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrtcat Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Steve Moore is a legend. This is a proper old vid but he's made a very tidy career in recent years as a result of it. I saw him live in vegas years ago with Rick K and The Allnighters and didn't know whether to laugh at first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris_b Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I think this guy's playing is just fine. He's just accentuating moves that many of the US marching bands already use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derrenleepoole Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 That drummer is brilliant! Anyone notice he goes more crazy when the guitarist is soloing? I think he's trying to upstage him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] You can't expect a strat to sound like Pearly Gates. He could at least have taken an LP to the gig with him. He was slightly dragging the last few bars because he was trying to rake the pick and began the rake on the beat which made the leading edge of his note at the top of the rake late. To get that right in this context you have to rake in front of the beat so that the leading edge of the note at the top of the rake appears on the beat. I prefer to leave rakes to music where it adds to the effect if the note at the top comes in after the beat. In this song, it detracts.
