Play these four notes and rock it out. This was onstage, at one of our last shows. Apparently he had this whole other song planned that me and our drummer had no idea about. He brought one of his friends up to play guitar and his sister came up to sing as well. It ended up being an eminem and rihanna song. I don't listen to much rap but for 12 seconds before we launched into it i'd say that we managed to pull it off! and the crowd dug it! 
Heres the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HY_9qfIb8Lc

| | | | Don't care about the recording, it catches the vibe! Though I don't like rap music I can only respect the fact you did great and I probably would have enjoyed myself if I were in the crowd!

It just so happend that someone got a vid of it so I posted that to. There's no reason to get all worked up about it. I already know the video quality isnt great but I still feel it captures the moment well enough.

| | | | The audio on the video isn't good. So, you should stop being happy about your band doing a really good "improv" performance. Don't be happy.
