Well thats one way to encourage musicianship.
That guitarist was awful though, didn't know the song.

The singer is acting on behalf of everyone who ever felt like doing the same ...

Hell, the guy deserves a slap just for the mullet ...

My band "supported" (it was a kid's gig that we somehow got roped into playing) a band on Saturday that was interesting. The guitarist broke his capo on stage when he was trying to get it on, then for the next two songs played the open chords instead of capo'd at the first fret. Meanwhile the bassist was happily chugging along a semi-tone up from him on every note.

I felt like slapping them and I wasn't even in the band.

I really enjoyed that. Who says direct action doesn't get results!

[ezbass]

Harsh! But fair

I think this band's problem doesn't stop at the guitarist

I wanted to slap the singer for a start.

Love how the bass player gets a cheeky little hit in at the end! ;-)

[Gust0o]

We'd leave our rehearsals bloody and ragged, on this form!

Well, the guitarist would...

[skankdelvar]

Priceless.

I think there is sadly some deeper ongoing abuse going on between that lot

In Soviet Russia, guitar solo butchers you!

S.P.

Don't blame you mate! Sounds like a shoddy guitar player, nothing annoys me more than guitarist who use a capo for strumming open chords, learn your CAGED system and play it properly, i'm a bass player and even i can do that on guitar!

[Ou7shined]

Wow pot kettle black. They all deserve a slap for getting up and playing that pish in the first place.

Not quite what I mean, it's even worse.

He was capo'd at the first fret, so he should've played an E shape, meaning it was an F chord, but instead he just played the E shape in the usual place, so an E chord. Meanwhile the bassist was still on F.

Could this be a sneak preview of the opening ceremony to World Cup 2018?

Very enjoyable

[KevB]

I expect there's plenty of people I've tried backing at jam sessions who have wanted to do that to me as they left the stage!
