They're the kind of band you walk right by and ignore in a hotel bar or city park. Leather Jacket Man is convinced they are on a roll, however.

Sweet baby Jebus! His soloing really is some next level shit. It's almost worth a trip to NJ to see this train-wreck in person & study at the feet of the master.

Fuck me long and hard....... The guitar solo at 2:00.......... I think he cums at 3:05 Also, the woman singing is dressed for a Nevada dive bar circa 1988. The one on keyboard is instead dressed by QVC. Eclectic.

They're terrible, but not hurting anyone I guess. What I wonder about are the other band members. Are they as convinced of their greatness as he is? Any open mic night bandleader who openly ponders rejecting Roger Waters for a session gig does not have a clear understanding of their merit. They're clearly a hobby level band and I'm sure it's fun, but they're not making a profound musical statement or anything.

That's not even wedding-band caliber.
Nice lighting though. Vidiot, was that you?

He knows how to end a song, though. It looks like he got a whole 12 inches of height on that jump.

Forgive me for a moment: There is an unassuming guy here at work. We got talking about music. Turns out he's a musician. I asked if I could hear some of his stuff. Throws me a song he did. Excellent stuff. But he has no electric guitar. So I asked him if I could overdub some. He was tickled pink. Neither one of us walks around pretending we are rock stars. We just love playing. Take a listen if you don't mind. www.dropbox.com/s/nnbhykkgaoe8c0n/disappear%20.mp3?dl=0It's good, Dave, and yer right, as long as you love playing, that's all that matters. Some of these guys take it so goddamn seriously...

Here's a couple of the rfreeman originals that are way too good for Roger Waters.
I like how they have the drummer out on the patio.

Female lead is Cindy Wilson after a nervous breakdown.

Their decision to sing and play in five different keys is simply inspired.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with them doing this and having a good time. There is EVERYTHING wrong with this asshole believing he is a better musician than someone who created some of the most popular music of a generation.

I've always thought that the one thing missing from "Long Tall Sally" was a thoroughly embarrassing 24-bar guitar solo. Well done, R!
