Re: Most unusual band backdrops


Not a gig, but in Paul Gilbert's Terrifying Guitar Licks video, he sits in front of where a variety of things go on in the background:

-Giant Electro Harmonix Big Muff pedals
-Green Easter Hay
-The Guitars in His House on Hangers
-Sesame (Chicken?) being prepared
-Big Pans of strange Oyster looking things
-Pot Stickers Deep Frying
-A Clock with various Sushi instead of numbers
-A 3-D Landscape created with pictures of the character Racer X off Speed Racer
-A 60's "Play Guitar" instructional vinyl record jacket (and presumably the record) as well as Stan Dan, and some others
-A Kiss Pinball Machine
-A kid's felt artwork of an Elephant and a Tree
-Pictures of Chickens
-A Flagstone style patio surface. (swirls after a while)
-Green LED signal indicators off an older recording mixer.
-Another clock, with asian symbols for numbers

And then during the credits at the end, its a video of toy dinosaurs fighting in Paul's garden, with demonic guitar noises being played over it. Its quite impressive.

I'm tempted to ask why, but I kind of know I'll regret it!
