Thank you for the clip.

However, I feel instinctively that David Bowie would never get so annoyed.

Throwing guitars around and such like..

I think it was an actor pretending to be db..

Yeah. I couldn't picture Bowie smashing a guitar. It'd be too easy, or even too obvious.

I could see him stringing the guitar with something other than regular steel or gut strings, and then adding an additional pick-up or two onto the guitar that would really trip out the tone of the guitar once you play it.. Not just a regular pick-up either: maybe something that would bend the tone without actually having to bend the strings to get there.. wink.gif .. Or maybe he could create a guitar that somehow came apart while he or someone else was playing it, yet wink.gif the guitar would still be playable and being more or less in tune...with some strange, movable, colorful imagery that spreads as someone plays the guitar. Then? At the end of the gig, Bowie wrangles his last notes of it and then-like The Jetsons- he folds it up like a suitcase, snaps it shut and then smashes the case against a pinata' made of Phil Collins' likeness wink.gif LOL. Eh, nevermind Phil. How about a pinata' of Lady Gaga? She's disposable calories like candy in a pinata'. What am I on about? Who TF knows? LOL Eh, It's Thursday...Chile wink.gif LOL.

OK I don't quite get this, some of theses video's from this gig, are shot off a vdu screen, but to my ears and eyes the video is way out of sync at least by 5 seconds.
To me parts of it look even dubbed, even a different song from a different gig ?.
Could be a delay from the stage to the camera, but that seems a lot.

Is it me, no i am always aware of the out of sync thing.

Any other members see hear what i meen ?.

So the sound at this gig was shit huh ?
You would have thought they would have got it right at the sound check !.

I imagine the event in the Rock Star Olympics: Who else has been seen doing that and what was the distance in meters? Lessee, there was an Everly Brothers incident in the early Seventies...

It was definitely murder - but was it art?
