He should know that if he wants to show us how enthusiastic he is about the album then he should just ghostride the whip. Some footage of that would really amp up my anticipation for this record.harmless wrote:Shhh, what a silly critique!

Goofy dancing as spontaneous gig thing can be forgiven. They actually planned this, though. It was like a scene which was deliberated over. It's staged and contrived.stupidmop wrote:Stone is thinking : yes
And that goofy dancing is exactly what he does on stage anyway.
It's lamer when you consider the option that that sequence was probably was entirely planned out lol.

They probably planned the accidental music, i dont think they decided 'and then, we dance'. They could have taken it out or they could have said 'Ed you sucker, we're leaving the dorky dancing in muahaha'.harmless wrote:Goofy dancing as spontaneous gig thing can be forgiven.
