    As if that song was perfect up to the solo.

    My favorite part though was the bass player making like he was going to clobber the guy with his bass. Bad enough to pile on, worse to demonstrate that you can't go with your hands so you have to use a bass as a weapon.

    I can only imagine the brawls that took place during practice. There just ain't a place for smackin' folks around during a gig.

    Get through the set, and talk about it afterwards, but don't smack the guitar player for flubbing a solo. Sheesh!

    I've deserved one of those slaps on more than one occasion.

    I'm guessing that the singer and bass player may face assault & battery charges for their actions.

    I wonder if that "solo" was an intentional flub to get back at the other guys over some previous slight?

    You can't fake being that bad...He was doing the best he could with his (very) limited "skills"...

    They should all slap each other for "playing" "music" so horribly.

    Guitarist is a pretty mellow guy. I would have had my guitar busted over that singers head a split second later. Who hits someone in the back of the head?
