SO THAT NECROPHAGIST UKULELE VIDEO IS A FAKE

Wednesday, November 11th, 2009 at 2:00pm by

As many of you pointed out (including Eyal, who emailed me), there’s no midi tracking device on the uke and the guy is playing along with a tab on Guitar Pro. Oh well!

      Completely out of place, but that’s how South Park references should be…

    jeeze, metal blogs getting nailed by a lack of fact checking lately…. maybe start taking your time before you put up your posts? music is not as much of a race as you make it seem.

    The uke falls off the shelf, hits the laptop, now i can’t get to my sites.

    LOL, suddenly YouTube and blogs are the f’ing New York Times newsroom.

    Anyway, at least the YouTubez video of the guy playing “The Trooper” on the harp is for real.

      LOL I found a youtube video of a guy playing The Trooper on electric ukulele. I think he had it tuned like a guitar though. Regardless, it was high school talent show level hilarious.

    For seeming like a really educated dude in music ( drum trigger post, etc etc), I am surprised you thought that was him playing. Lolz….

    P.S. I still the video itself rulez hard over anything Attack McAttack put out :-)

    I saw that video 2 or 3 days before it got posted here out of sheer coincidence. (Was looking for a live video of Seven to try and figure out how they pulled those pinch harms out so fast.) I’m not a musical intellectual by any account, but I almost instantly realized it was fake. Really unfortunate it got posted here.

    Did you not see that he kayfabed on the instrument cable plug in? You didn’t see that it wasn’t plugged in for the duration of the video?

      This is gay.

      BACK TO THE PILE.

    Geez guys, cut Vinnie some slack. He came clean with the mistake. It is a blog, after all, not the fucking BBC.

  • Zombie(really)

    Wow, there’s a ‘hollywood undead’ link….

  • DurkaDerr

    Why should we cut him some slack? Vince writes for a website solely about MUSIC. One would make the assumption that he would know a thing or two about it. Fuck that. I knew that video was fake after about 20 seconds. You suck Vince. Get your shit together. I’m awesome, you suck. I fucking hate you and this site, and I’m never coming back here to read my metal news because of something so trivial. Never again.

    But seriously though, who fucking cares?

    Who fuckin called that one….
