It reminded me of that Yoshi's Island level where when you run into those puff-ball things it turns everything like your on acid, including the music.
Like some guy said in the comments, it sounds like a cow on acid

2. People who can play tripplets at 200 BPM and can do lots flashy stuff but can't hold a basic 12-bar groove.
3. Bassists who insist on being all over the fretboard, all the time. You're not a lead player. Stop.
4. People who rag on pick players/think they're better than pick players. You're not better than Anthony Jackson or Jason Newstead. Ergo, shut your mouth. |
+1, spot on my freind |

Like some guy said in the comments, it sounds like a cow on acid  | The guitar player is just strumming away looking at him with this, "What the hell did I just get myself into?" look. |

I think that what we are seeing is a shadow. If I'm reading you right, you're saying it looks like the thumb is somehow UNDER the string... it does kinda look like that, but I think we're seeing his thumb nail / a shadow and REALLY he's playing "floating thumb" technique with the thumb resting on the A string, muting the A and the E while he plays the D. |

What the hell is that guy tapping on in the back? Is it a piece of cardboard? I don't know!!! What a trainwreck!!! This is the best "worst" thing I've seen or heard in a long time! I love it! |
