Terrible stage moves

[Cat Burrito]

I appreciate lots of bass players belong to the Bill Wyman school of bass move (singular) but a few of us do like to go for it. I guess the more seasoned of us get to finally tune our stage craft. However a recent article with 80s hair metallers Ratt all falling out for the millionth time did make me laugh. The old drummer criticising the bass player's moves sounded like sour grapes until I saw the moving gigs.

Any other contenders out there for most questionable stage craft?

Can`t really think of many though I did watch John Fogerty doing a live perfomance of Fortunate Son and his bassist was a tad, well you get the idea.

On the other hand, I could watch him for hours:

My personal favourite is the guitarist on the right in this clip:

One of the few times I have genuinely laughed out loud at a YouTube clip.
