I think somebody has to photoshop one of those onto the mural between Floyd Landis and Jay Blancmange.

I tried dialing these up this morning in search of a laff, and found they're gone -- what a mega bummer. Hopefully the dude will put them all back up on a website of his own.
It's cool he was on Kimmel, but yeah -- watching him do it live obviously isn't how the humor "works"! (It was funny how they had Slash come up at the end, as if to "show him up" -- though maybe it was meant to be a friendly jam session, hard to tell.)

I thought the thing on Kimmel was cute.
Dear internet, just because producers try to take something hermetic and insular like a dude editing videos in his room, and make it interesting for television, does not mean they don't "get it"
― Whiney G. Weingarten, Friday, 8 February 2008 18:47 (sixteen years ago) link
how great would it have been if after slash came up, dude dropped his funny-bad style and totally outshredded him.
― Jordan, Friday, 8 February 2008 18:55 (sixteen years ago) link
Haha, for reals. (They didn't select very good clips -- the Slash one he was playing along with barely had any shots of Slash's fingers/guitar -- though maybe the guy himself chose them, who knows. I think you really have to watch the entire clips to appreciate his deal... the laughs come in how they "develop," with the weird pauses, etc... but yeah, it's cool they tried.)
Dude, I was watching some concert salute to Roy Orbison on VH1 Classic late one night -- it was from the late '80s, around the Traveling Wilburys time... there was a big mega superstar jam going on to "Pretty Woman" -- Roy sang a few verses, then it veered off into Clapton, Tom Petty, etc. (I forget who they all were) playing on and on and on. all I could think of was how utterly perfect that jam segment looked for the StSanders treatment. I was delighted just imagining it, while watching the goofy video of those guys playing and mugging...

that one of prince at the rock n' roll hall of fame would be great too.
― Jordan, Friday, 8 February 2008 19:02 (sixteen years ago) link
Next guy to do this should be some trained-from-birth Manchurian Candidate mole who will be able to go on J. Kimmel and unmask, outshredding whatever guitar slinger they throw at him.

I wasted a separate thread on the demise of this a few days ago.

UNDERWIRE RESURRECTS ST SANDERS
― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Saturday, 9 February 2008 07:22 (sixteen years ago) link
Many thanks Big Hoos aka the steendriver.
Any idea how I can save this work of the world's greatest at the top of their game.
The Clapton one particularly should be buried in a time capsule. Along with the great man himself. Immediately!
― Fer Ark, Saturday, 9 February 2008 11:39 (sixteen years ago) link
i can't do a proper search for these clips anymore - not since some dude developed a hairbrain scheme to imitate the original idea, but in a way that's not funny at all. and he's done a whole bunch of them, somehow missing the point that the guitar overdubs are meant to sound amateurish. take it easy on the legit, rehearsed pentatonics, bro!
― Charlie Howard, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 05:40 (fifteen years ago) link
that Steve Vai one is priceless. He HAD to be one of the dudes that complained. It makes him look like such an ass.
― rockapads, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 06:06 (fifteen years ago) link
It was Malmsteen who complained no? He's a total fuckwit anyway
Some tonight (Conan?) show actually had StSanders and Slash playing together, so I doubt it was him.
― S-, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 06:47 (fifteen years ago) link
They said 3 guitarists complained and mentioned he thought Vai and Malmsteen were two of them.

Also, so glad to see that godfather of the "_______ shreds" concept St Sanders has a site to host all of his own creations now after being banned from youtube.

There's some collective of guys (forget their "band" name) that's done 100+ of these sorts of full-band play-along "shreds". Some of them are awful or stiff, but a few (Journey's "Any Way You Want It"; Human League's "Keep Feeling Fascination"; Danzig's "Mother"!!!) are beyond great.
My bad if they've been posted already.

the music itself is komedy but more than half the joke is refocusing attention on the visuals

This is one of my favorites ever. Same concept, but with vocals instead of instrumentation.
