I Write To Remember
At the Drive-In performs “One-Armed Scissor” on Later… with Jools Holland
Good grief, how high did Cedric and Omar get before this performance?! I love this song, but I can’t imagine how pissed I’d be if I was one of the other guys playing my guts out while Omar was over there wanking around and mostly making noise. Don’t get me wrong, I like the guy, and I think he’s an extremely talented songwriter, but his (and Cedric’s) live playing and antics leave a lot to be desired as far as I’m concerned. Notice how the musicianship of the performance immediately went up once Omar threw his guitar into the audience? And the thing that kills me is that I know the guy can play well live because I’ve seen it.
That being said, I’m anxious to see what the Coachella reunion shows will be like and what plans the guys might have for At the Drive-In afterwards.
Enjoy!
