As stated elsewhere:

The singer is dressed nicely.

Shame the performance is a load of arse. What the hell is that guitar doing?

I've done better, a lot better, than that.

I hope the rest of their gig wasn't as dire.

They'll get better with practice,they should stick at it.
Hint for the guitarist-- tune up and you can also play bar chords on the A string.

No bitch like an ex smoker.

I vote for Option 4:
This Emo-Kid makes me wanna cry on how soulless and lifeless a cover can be performed.

I think essential for a good cover is that you make the song yours. Not so much bowing to your idols, but rather make the listener forget that someone else has ever sung that song. For reference clicky.

That is possibly the most amazing clip I've ever seen Always was, still is...

Rough as fcuk.

The "bass player" got his first bass for his birthday that morning presumably.
I wish cover "bands" would just f**k off.

i like drums the best there's no place for dave lombardo on this earth no more.

I might even dance to it after a few pints.

Presumably of tequila?

Crap! They need to be punished!

NOT only they need to be punished, they also deserve worse: a tongue kiss from That Guitarist while he tells fairy tales - ah no, they will like that...

maybe, they deserve it to be the support act of The Sisters, look who's laughing THEN... he he.. .

Or maybe they should be locked in a room & made to listen to their sins on a looped tape.

I wonder if Brittany Spears fans would react as passionately if they heard this?

Is there a forum?
Would be quite funny to put this up there & watch the fallout.

*WHY* do amateur bands exist? Why can't there only be pro's without the obvious loser-never-gonna-make-it-nitwits?

would make it so much easier for me.

Like there would've been only adults and no kids.

Because we're better than many of the "pros". Deal.

So it's just the s**t ones that stick their effluent on the internet then?

No, but you have to wade through oceans of sh*t to find a nugget of something decent. The great thing about being able to post music on the Internet is that anyone can do it.

The downside of being able to post music on the Internet is that anyone can do it.

A very eerie example of a "professional amateur band" is Carbon / Sillicon. By tony james (you know it) and Mick Jones of The Clash
Mick in the middle, Tony on the right. Ouch!

Yikes!

Because in both cases, you must start life as the less desirable before evolving to the preferred state

Of course. The decent ones don't make effluent. They make music.
