Yeah, well, that was, um, ehm, ooh, ahem, nice. And what have they done to their hair?

Well, if you enjoy badly out of tune guitar playing, you're missing a lot. :D

Nick, the keyboard is up a half-step to where it should be. No fault of Eddie's.

Jump is a relatively easy song... except for key parts and the solo...couldn't have been hard for him to slide up his playing a fret... Unless he's gotten so deaf he couldn't even hear it out of tune...

Or unless he played the same venue I did last night, where the sound man only ran vocals through the monitors, and no one could hear the other instruments... Felt like I was playing out of tune at times for some reason, until I got close to the bass amp and the other guitar amp and it sounded good again!

No fault of Eddie's nothing.

This is a couple nights later and, while better, not much. And a third video was out there with tuning problems. They keys stayed in the same tuning through every video. I have to wonder how much of it is hearing loss versus a guitar tech screwing up.

Ugh, I feel sick to my stomach after watching that. Very bad, all around-music, haircuts, and stage outfits.

You should try watching it with the sound turned off. It looks absolutely ludicrous, the jumping looks quite spastic, and that prancing about with that sham microphone was really hilarious.

D'you think DLR is trying to compensate for something?

Just saw it. And heard it. Wow. If I ever end up like that, just shoot me.

Are y'all sure there hasn't been some "clever editing" done to the audio?

There's nothing clever about it.
