DL Rock Honors performance

Ok, So by now we've all seen it a million and one times....I know I have. LOL So, I thought The Performance of "Photograph" by The All American Rejects SUCKED! they were flat and missed chords! Sure, I guess Photograph is a hard song to do, and I'm bias cause I know when something is fucked up cause I've listened to Photograph and all the other songs as much as any die hard has, so, I think I know the song by heart and know when something is wrong. Could I play it myself? hell no! but, that's just because I haven't had guitar lessons and can't play ANYTHING for shit! I thought the drummer was pretty clever though with the UJ shorts!

ROA was, well, ROA! LOL. I liked 20th Century Boy. I was surprised (again!) that they did that. I thought for sure they were going to do Rock On! (I thought for sure they were going to do it for Leno, so, I was BIG TIME surprised when they did!) I just went and found Rocket on vh1.com HOLY SHIT! ok, first of all, the good, I LOVED the guitar "battle" that Phil and Viv did! that was great! the Bass part before that started ROCKED! Joe sounded a little flat on Rocket but, it was still good. All in all, the guys did it again! fantastic job!

Now the bad...GET RID OF THE DAMN BACK UP SINGERS! I thought hearing them in 20th Century Boy was bad but, ROCKET????? JESUS CHRIST! they totally drounded the guys out! and they were flat too! You can see Phil looking at them a few times I hope he turned to them and said "you are flat!" I hope to god it was the label's idea and not the bands idea to have these girls. If it was the band, they need to retire NOW! Ok, rant over!
