Cemetary Gates Cover - How to look stupid without a guitar!

BCrowell · 08-26-2007, 01:47 AM

Here's a video of us RMA chaps covering Pantera's "Cemetary Gates." As I've become the resident signer helping students on on tunes, they asked me to sing on this one. Now USUALLY I'm playing guitar at the same time. With no guitar around my neck, I found myself standing there going WTF am I supposed to do! I ended up moving around like a total dufus....damn my wife was even laughing at me! A couple times I bend down to check lyrics, and end up looking like someone with disabilities :P

Well at least I sang it ok, and only screwed up the lyrics twice or so. (BTW we literally rehearsed this for about an hour earlier that day...so no it's not perfect!

) Let me know what you think about the singing! Remeber, several guys in this ARE students, soo....

Oh, and let's see if anyone notices the shirt I'm wearing... hint hint Shannon...

That was pretty cool, good job singing

gregj · 08-26-2007, 02:36 PM

damn, this is tragic

I would stop in the middle, and laugh

- so congrats on balls, to do it

and even more balls to stick it on youtube .
students you say, they should stick to playing blues, if that's not hard enough for them

Shawn · 08-26-2007, 05:48 PM

Brian! Nicely done. We used to do this one too, it's a great song to cover and has always been my favorite Pantera song. Cool vid, your vocals sound great!

You gotta grab the mike with one hand and then headbang like a motherfucker!

Well, we've all been there learning at one point, though I do agree it was pushing it for Daniel. What's even harder, is when you can play it, and your stuck up there without your guitar! I'm not worried per the Youtube as I didn't put but one "tag" in it...It'll be gone after a few days. I merely put it up there to show you guys, knowing ya'll would be uh...mature about it, and maybe get a laugh or too!

Thanks Shawn & Tele for the vocal props! I just wish I could really growl, but alas my vocal coach had always threatened to shoot me if I tried!

....Nope.....keep tryin'

I know the vid quality sucks so bad, I doubt anyone can tell

Ken · 08-26-2007, 08:36 PM

I'm guessing it's an End Theory shirt.

Thanks for sharing. I don't have any critical comments, because I think that's great practice and valuable feedback for the students to be able to watch themselves. You got up there and muscled through the vocals with more balls than I, so kudos to you for that. You must've felt naked with no guitar in front of you.

Yeah, I winced a few times, but it certainly brought back memories of band practices.
