Bands screwing around on TV...

[J@3]

These are pretty funny...

Nirvana on TOTP... they weren't allowed to play their instruments but Kurt was allowed to sing, resulting in this:

Muse on Italian TV... they were told to mime, so they did. The singer is now the drummer, the drummer now the singer and bass player, the bass player now playing lead guitar. My favourite bit is where Matt points the drum stick at the camera and he zooms out like it's some sort of cool effect

Oasis on TOTP... again not happy with having to mime, Noel and Liam switch places.

All ABout Eve on TOTP... not really screwing around but apparently they couldn't hear the audio, despite the fact the TV audience could. Leading to this awkwardness

There's also this one from Iron Maiden where they seem to all take turns singing and sound exactly alike. The crowd doesn't look thrilled:

The Nirvana one always cracks me up when he sucks on the mic a bit and with his guitar playing style. If that was me I would probably have started laughing in the middle of it.

Awesome find on the new Muse one, I haven't seen that one before, only the live and kicking and Radio 3 ones. Matt looks like he is having fun, haha.

Here's the Muse at Radio 3 one that I posted somewhere else before. They told him not to cuss and he starts dropping F-Bombs at about 1:30

Here's an old one with Iron Maiden on a German show.

Here's a Radiohead one. Nothing really crazy, just the guitar player playing left handed, I guess.

The Smiths - Morrissey comes out with flowers instead of a mic.

This one is pretty funny. Eels - Novocaine with miniature instruments.
