[kj] was GEORDIE'S Tracks - VH & Police gigs

[Leigh Newton]

If I were stuck in that situation, I simply would have stopped playing and tuned my shit back up. He didn't even need to be playing in verses anyways. Weird.

I remember there was one MTV Music Video Awards where White Zombie played and the drummer was SO fucking out-of-sync with the backing tracks. Trainwreck doesn't even begin to describe it. It was pretty awesome to see.

As far as I can hear that is about half a semitone out . . absolutely 
nothing you can do about that in a live setting with guitars . .

Eddie banged the guitar's headstock on the stage during his solo and for 
some dumb reason, stuck with the guitar instead of trading off for another 
one from his tech for the last two songs of the set including "Jump."   Some 
idiot's reasoning that the problem is a sample rate issue with the 
pre-recorded synth track is completely off base.

I've seen plenty of live bands actually have far worse fuckups onstage than 
this.  In fact, I'd call U2 the onstage fuck-up kings, they have such 
comically embarrasing screwups during songs.
