Yeah, i suppose successfully done, it makes for a good show.
until you realize that everyone and their dog does it and it's just old hat now.....when you get on that "gotta put on a show" roller coaster,remember that once it's been done you gotta keep coming back with more.....good music played well used to constitute a good show......

that crap is why i don't go to many concerts these days.....crowds of noisy drunks who just want to be "entertained" and don't have the slightest interest in whatever music is being played......
 



Wow there is a small but hardy army of slightly fat 15 year old boys with pudding bowl "I'm growing it long" haircuts and expensive gear they don't mind trashing.

Its annoying to see a few SGs get caught up in the stupidity. Of all solid instruments I would say the SG is the weakest.

The interesting thing with that video is that the people who get it really wrong end up lobbing their instrument into the ground headstock first, which is not exactly designed for that sort of blunt trauma.

Im preparing the kitchen for headstock curry!

I'd rather see bands move to the music they make than just stand there and play, it gets boring, unless its like jazz or something really complicated.
