28 years after 10 years after

I recently sent youtube video links to a good friend of mine.
It was about music we listened to in the sixties (yes, we’re that old, even though the friend in question is in denial).
One of the clips was of a studio rehearsal of the band “Ten Years After” with our then-God Alvin Lee on guitar.
My friend pointed out one of the comments. It was a short, one sentence, very simple comment. But I laughed my ass off!
It simply stated: “The bass player needs to switch to decaf”
For maximum effect, turn OFFÂ your sound (play it again WITH sound, it’s GOOD!) and play the clip with this comment in mind (the organ player is “on something” too, as my wife pointed out).
Update:
The clip I had here doesn’t work anymore. I found a link to the same session, but it takes a bit longer before it gets to the part of the over-enthousiastic bass-player.

And here is a clip to a more complete clip about this rehearsal:

And THIS of course is the ‘ultimate’ Ten Years After: http://youtube.com/watch?v=tHw9b4BBV9Y
I was 16 year old when I watched this!
This is when I decided to be a guitar player in a world famous rock band!
I came in close second: I became a computer programmer…
I kept expecting one of them to fall over. I am CONSIDERABLY younger than you are, but still saw my share of band members (and the audience) just fall down.
I imagine though that if one of them HAD fallen down, you wouldn’t have noticed (just a guess!)
