My friend has that new-ish live DVD of them. The one from the concert they did for charity. It's awesome - John Entwhistle's solo is great, although the distortion makes it a little hard to hear what he's doing.

Can't be that new, Entwistle is sort of dead now.

His playing in this live video is great, but the cameraman focuses on Daltrey and Townshend. Although since Townshend is jumping around like an absolute loony, it's not hard to see why. At the end he throws a cymbal up in the air and then throws his guitar at it :lol:

ElKapitan 12-09-2004 11:35 AM

i always found it amusing when people wrote his name as Townsend, sheer laziness not to look it up
i think Limp *shudder* Bizket did that on their horrendous cover of Behind Blue Eyes

Rollo47 12-09-2004 11:36 AM

No, it's not that new, but they're all old - John Entwhistle is sporting a mop of grey hair, and Roger Daltrey sounds as if he had a stroke.

neal_672 12-09-2004 11:36 AM

That cover was just painful. I mean i'm not a huge fan of The Who in the first place, but they murdered that song...

Rollo47 12-09-2004 11:37 AM

Yeah, Limp Bizkit's cover of Behind Blue Eyes was simply horrible. Never heard anything quite so bad.

Wintermute 12-09-2004 11:38 AM

Right, I'm officially worried.

A friend of mine is a guitar virtuoso. He's 15 and he regularly does Hendrix solos behind his head in live shows, and worked out Vai's 'Eugene's Trick Bag' by ear, which is downright scary. I showed him that Don Alder video that was linked to a bit ago, and he's gone to try and figure it out... This kid is not right. He's only been playing 4 years! 15 year olds should not be playing Vai solos. 15 year olds should not be adding improv sections to Hendrix solos. Behind their heads.

ElKapitan 12-09-2004 11:38 AM

anywho, i gotta go, have to meet my girlfriend at the tram stop from college

latos all :wave:

They removed any hint of musical progression, took out the cool climax, and replaced a rock legend vocalist with a seal in pain.

Rollo47 12-09-2004 11:39 AM

That's ridiculous, Wintermute.

I'm insanely jealous. Heh.

neal_672 12-09-2004 11:39 AM

I have a friend like that too, he's been playing 5 years and is 16, he plays solo's with his teeth :upset: and can do Vai stuff etc, so irritating...

Rollo47 12-09-2004 11:41 AM

Pfft. Being 15 never stopped anyone from drinking a pint.

*first got drunk aged 10*

:lol: How did you manage that!?

*First got drunk aged 16*

Espbassor 12-09-2004 11:44 AM

*is never getting drunk*

Rollo47 12-09-2004 11:45 AM

Why's that, ESP?

Espbassor 12-09-2004 11:46 AM

I just believe that it's morally wrong...









...plus its funny remembering the stuff other people do while their drunk :thumb:

neal_672 12-09-2004 11:46 AM

Hmmmm well to each their own :thumb:

Wintermute 12-09-2004 11:46 AM

Well I was having dinner with my dad, in this outdoor chinese restaurant in Hong Kong. My dad was on beer, and I was on lemonade, with a small dash of beer, because he was in a good mood, and was slightly drunk. The drunker he got, the larger my dash of beer became, till soon we were both drunk. Then some policemen came into the restaurant and dad pushed my glass onto the floor.

Good times!

jamesr 12-09-2004 11:47 AM

*gets drunk all the time*

Rollo47 12-09-2004 11:47 AM

Why, I got drunk just yesterday. On beer and vodka.

*hates spirits*

*loves Beer*








*but not Australian beer, really don't like it :upset: *

Rollo47 12-09-2004 11:51 AM

Vodka isn't my favourite, I much prefer bourbon.

I'm not a big fan of Australian beer, but some of it is good. Carlton Cold is good, as are various other beers.

Imported European beers are good. I drunk some Dutch beer yesterday, it was called Bavaria.
