But wouldn't it have been [b]DLR's call to cut the song short?[/b] Or he was just hoping EVH would pick it up and compensate? There must have been a person operating the keyboard machine, right? I'm confused. confuse


I am not sure whose call it should have been, but remember these guys have been around a long time...true "professionals" would know what to do in an emergency situation.

I say, shame on all of them.....people payed a lot of money to go hear what they obviously thought would be a quality, well orchestrated show.

tA and I have been around in this business long enough to know, sh*t happens, and sometimes the musicians/engineers can work through it so you can finish, sometimes ya just gotta let loose of your pride re-start....

Since they started the show with a lot of drama and fanfare, it would have been difficult to build up the momentum they wanted from the audience again.....they had already entered the arena, so perhaps there could have been other option (silence EVH's guitar perhaps?).....I don't know.

cool


As a last resort, they could have cut the whole song and gone to the next one. Then maybe revisited it later in the set if the keyboards got fixed?

That post was not funny enough for you to post it 4 times. lol

And hey now, I'm FROM Buffalo. A lot of acts start their tours in that area, and some of them never sound better because they're still getting it together and there's more of a chance of something spontaneous happening.


SO AM I!!!!!
AND IT WAS A JOKE!!!!!
DON'T CRY!!!!!
eek eek eek eek
