Another guitar fakery video, this one about Tim Henson

There are actual idiots who fake their playing on instagram and TikTok, but of course they will never really do anything beyond posting reels for attention. Tim Henson, while I don’t care for his music and I don’t appreciate her/him trying to give me a confused boner, obviously really plays guitar and is in a real band that makes real music people have actually enjoyed. Stupid video from a retarded pot stirrer.
 
His footwear choices do seem to reflect his guitar's tonal characteristics.

This is an era of manufactured stars and celebrities. I don't know what to say beyond that. I actually skipped all the annoying YTers critiques and just watched the video. That's what I based the thread off, as you can see in the opening post.

Their music does nothing from me though seeing a room full of tattooed up people turning up at their gigs does pique my curiosity. There's definitely a lot of background stuff going on, electronics and stuff. I'll just leave it at that.

I mean, honestly, which record company in the world is going to say, "Hey, dig this new sound", in this current environment of plastic music and bands?

Separately, interesting to note Henson is half-Chinese.

Idk man, I've seen them play live. I've never considered their style to be along the lines of boomer wank a la Steve Vai, but when they are playing their stuff they are tight as a tick's ass. I remember the opened for BTBAM on the Colors reunion tour, this was back in 2017, and they were very good.

A single excerpt of a few seconds from a live performance of improvised grandpa shred in the presence of the king of noodling himself I can chalk up to being a case of nerves.

This has never happened at any time before. Never in the 80s would a label sign a band based off how they look, give them a team of songwriters and producers, then send them to a studio where session guys would record the music. It was all so pure
