DAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! That was hilarious, embarrassing, and entertaining. If I was at that show I would not be able to stop laughing. I love how serious the look on his face is.

Might as well have 2 huge arrows pointing to him stating "LOOK AT ME, LOOK AT ME!!!"

A little too over the top for me.

I love it, looks like he's trying to escape from a straight jacket while playing. I'm sure I couldn't play with him, I would be laughing too hard and missing notes.

He looks like he's trying to keep himself amused or interested while playing lame music.

I wouldn't call ZZ Top lame music, now those outfits that's a different story. Those guys sure have gotten a lot of publicity from that vid though.

Haha oh man. I just came on here to post this. Guess a few of you beat me to the punch. I hope that bassists isn't on here - or at least can appreciate the total AWESOMENESS of this.

It's gold Jerry, pure gold.

Hilariously unorthodox, yet he pulls it off beautifully.

The Townshend Windmill was the best part, though. That, or when he did the robot.

Edit: I bet he's a hit in the studio. Wonder how many overhead mics he broke in his life...
