Default What you didn't see on the air...

I'm gonna quote myself from a little entry I wrote after the performance:

"What was different from what you saw on TV?
Well, we saw a soundcheck. It was Peacekeeper and it was about five minutes before their performance was aired.
I was very surprised to hear GYOW as their first song after they had just rehearsed Peacekeeper.
And there was a bit of a flub. Since I was, technically, behind them, I got to see Lindsey turn around and give the background musicians a kind of cute "What the hell was THAT?" look--he wasn't angry, just confused but he recovered quickly."

I love how during the commercial they took the Dance footage and tried to make it seem like they were so active in their concerts and so edgy, when The Dance DVD was probably the most mundane concert video i've ever seen.

Mr. B always hits the key of "Sexy" just right!

Let's just be glad he didn't freak out, throw his guitar down and start dancing an awkward jig, LOL!

Not true...there's not an octave between those two notes.
I thinks it's F and G, which is only a single note..

Although you phrased it fairly strangely, if I know what you mean, it is completely wrong. The very first two notes of Peacekeeper are an octave apart. And I hate to break it to you, but F and G are two different notes.

I have the actual sheet, I ordered it from sheetmusicplus.com. He plays F and G. The song is in Gm, so he would never play E anyways, since it is not in the Gm scale..
Pardon my English, I meant there is only a single note of difference between F and G, in comparison to a whole octave, which is clearly not the case. I guess your don't have much experience in notation..

It's interesting to note that while the overall performance might be a bit unpolished, this is the only performance I've seen from the SYW era in which Lindsey hits the high note as he sings "GO your own way" in the chorus. Perhaps he injured his vocal chords at some point early in the tour?

For a few moments, FM achieved the tunelessness of an elementary school band recital.

Now, didn't Schadenfreude16 already start a thread about this?

If you listen close, he f'd up the lyrics too. Brrrr it must have been cold!
I thought it was just absolutely amazing that he turned around and looked at Mick right after.
As if Mick was going to be telling him later in the day, because of this,
"WELL, old chap, we gave it a trial period for 30 years, but, I'm sorry, I just don't think it's going to work out. We need somebody that isn't going to play 2 - TWO - whole entire notes wrong every thirty years."
Meanwhile Mick's like, "What are ya looking at ME for, I'm just playing my drums! Ya f'd up, L.B., get OVER it."
By the way don't forget this is 5:30 in the morning for him . . . .

POOR Stevie - she's just standing there WHISTLING dixie, pretending like nuthin's going on!

I LOVE the way Lindsey acts when they finish the song, too - he's like,
" WOW! THAT SUCKED ! "
