Must See on Youtube

Has anyone else seen this? I don't want to spoil it by saying anything, but I promise no one will regret watching it. Star Wars trumpet solo.

This video ranks up there among the top most embarrassing videos of all time. She should have just stuck with the interpretive dance.

I feel bad for her. She obviously knew the song, just for whatever reason was playing it in a wrong key. I wouldn't doubt it was unrehearsearsed and she got a surprise when she hit the stage. I think she held it together pretty well considering.

I guess I'll have to change my name to "No One."

The only way I could have endured more than about 30-seconds of that video would have been to use the mute button from the very beginning.

This is a good way to prove you aren't lip-syncing. What is the equivalent term for instrumental playing anyway?

In this specific case, I believe the term would be "lip-sinking"....

Keeped her head together and smiled through it, I'd play with her if she had the right charts.

This clip and the "Van Halen-synth-in-C#-guitar-in-C" clip would make a great double bill.

I once saw Journey live on PBS. They were playing a blues, and at some point, Neal Schon starts ripping through a blistering solo, eyes closed, head back..... and a half step sharp. He continued in this vein for an embarrassingly long time, with the camera pointed right up at his face. At some point, he actually started listening to what he was playing, his eyes popped open, he looked down at his left hand, and then did a quick slide to the correct place on the neck. That was a classic pucker moment.

Edit.... there's another one... same guitarist! If you Google on "Neal Schon Wrong Key Blues", it pops up on Youtube. This time, he has blues royalty on stage with him. (First one was just Journey).

Maybe he went deaf in his early years with Santana.
