How could he leave in the middle of World Turning? At what point did he leave? When the guitar drops out & Mick & Taku carry on?

I think that he left after the song. But I can't remember to be honest. I know for a fact that he did come back bleeding.

Hi Angie!

Welcome too! Ok, we're together finally today for a few posts. These are weird stories. So he smacked himself with the guitar? I hope it was an accident or maybe the guitar decided to fight back this time when he was about to smash it into a wall.

Weird. Thanks for the story. I agree with Amber that it might be better if he just smashed them on the stage. It might be scary to actually be in the same room with him when he smashes something. I agree with Angie that it's that whole bad boy syndrome thing. The bad boys turn me on everytime.

(Syd)

All of this made me laugh. The egg thing sounds really funny. I don't like the "bad boys" so the smashy thing really just makes me roll my eyes. I think I would expect Kiss or somebody like that to do that (or did they eat live chickens?) but the WPB thing was just last year and LB doesn't seem like the type, like Syd said. I would have been so freaked if I was his wife. Why did he make his wife call the guitar tech?

Eh, who knows. Could be she's a 'willing little one' who'll do anything to please her man and keep her piece of pie.

On the other hand, maybe she's the one who made him bleed in West Palm.

Maybe he really does bleed to love her, ya know?

Could be. You never know what really went on. LB was NOT a happy camper that is for sure!

I'd read where he'd cut his hand while bashing around on Mick's cymbals during the end of "Go Your Own Way". Ahhh...the stuff legends are made of.

I'm just sad that Lindsey's New Year's Eve abomination was kept alive via video & audio tape. It should've been a one-time event, never to be thrashed upon us again.

"Whiney"? Lindsey? Pffftt...he DEFINED the term.

Just try not to be blinded by my continuous, overwhelming devotion to the thread.

The first post originally asked us all on our thoughts about Lindsey's rendition and the original; an unspoken push to compare the two. That's what we've all provided. You're opnion is based solely on hearing Lindsey's version, so not having heard the original, you're literally in no position to lecture anyone about THEIR thoughts on the song. I'm a HUGE Lindsey fan, my opinion is that his version is inferior to the original.

And yes, you're still being closed-minded, because you still have not heard the original Harrison version. Your objectivity makes you special? I believe the meaning of the word is to treat factual information without blurring or distorting it...so go listen to the original and THEN make your objective statement.

THAT'S the closed-minded part. You cannot even MAKE that statement until you've heard the original.

Again...closed minded. You're thinking like a child. You're not even willing to hear the Harrison one, and then compare the two. I have a feeling you'd like Lindsey's better, even if Christ himself told you the Harrison version was superior.

Might wanna re-read the first post. JohnDoe specifically said it was "so far from the original." I think that was a purposeful reason to draw attention to the original, by using it as a comparison with Lindsey's. And the privilege most of us seem to have over yourself, is that we've heard the original.

My mind is open enough to know what I like and dislike.
I dislike this version of the song and--yup--it has a whole hell of a lot to do with the original version.
If someone took a Lindsey classic...say...I'm So Afraid and turned it into a upbeat, bubblegum pop song, I'd feel the same way. Maybe the singer would claim he was just channeling someone who had massive amounts of anti-depressants in his system. The point is: anyone can use artistic license to change anything to suit his/her purposes. Sometimes, it's a wonderful thing. Sometimes...not so much.
Here Comes the Sun was a gentle, hopeful song. The harshness of Lindsey's version doesn't appeal to me at all but it's an opinion on a single work. Nothing more.

And by the way, model 1's are hideous and should disintegrate in a colossal, fiery inferno. OMG, LOL, OMG!!!!11! You got burned! ~-:winkwaveywavey:-~

Yeah, I did see what you wrote. "Kind of in passing?" Now you're out of points to make, it seems. There is no evolution on your end because you have nothing further to base your comments on. Go eat your Wheaties, young grasshopper.

Model 1's are hideous? Hmm. Well, that's your opinion. I for one would like to have one.
