Holy shit, this is the headbanging scene from the EPK that everyone was talking about the other day?

Wow. That's just terrible.
This is sped up to make it look more ridiculous than it really is.
That's good to know. Cause this is just beyond silly.
This is the shot that really made me laugh

Would you go for something like this?:

Seriously, Getaway sounds like a pretty fun song and I think its just fine for Ed to have fun listening to it. Its okay to enjoy the songs you write.
Yea, Getaway doesn't take itself too seriously. And Ed rockin out in his car to his own song? As a shitty musician, I know I've done it to my own songs.

Fuck you. Ed is not a shitty musician!

I'm in a band. We head bang to our own stuff when we're done with it. There's a sense of accomplishment, and if you love music, when you write it, record it, and get to listen to it, there's nothing better. Anyone who thinks it's masturbatory or 'silly' can go fuck themselves right off a fucking cliff. There is no musician in the world who hasn't enjoyed the music they've committed to, and if they say they don't like it, they're liars. If they say they don't listen to it, they're liars. And if I had the kind of talent these guys have following them around, like Apatow and Clinch, I don't know what the fuck I'd do other than think, "Holy shit people, SMART people like my music." And then I'd just head bang some more. So much so people would think I'm quite autistic.

Jesus Christ. I lurk here and you guys are just so fucking up your own asses. Take a breath. It's just a record. When it lands, love it or hate it, then keep on. No wonder Ed had a messiah complex when he was younger.

Guys, I was lying about not headbanging and dancing along to my band's recordings. I didn't think I was, but lowercasejames came and corrected me. I can't believe I was wrong all of these years.

As for people here being up their own asses...well isn't that the pot calling the kettle black...
