Thanks to Chris Saunders for sending this to me. A hysterical musical
mess created by live musicians trying to play with synthesizer back-
up. The synthesizer is played back by a recorder at the wrong speed
and is about 1.5 semitones sharp. No way to fix the problem except to
stop and try and figure out what the hell is going on, but they
unwisely chose to try and play through it. Van Halen no less. Read
the commentary too.
But then . . . the audience loved it. A new music? <grin>
