That is what I call "dedicated fans"! Italians do it better! :D

Seriously though, what a cool thing to do. |
How do you get 1,000 singers, guitarists, bassists and drummers sounding that tight? The sound crew deserve a Nobel prize! |

Most of all, how do you get 250 drummers, 150 bassists, 350 guitarists and 250 singers to play together in perfect harmony? :eek: All the drummers had headphones and a click to get them started (TU-PRA!) + visual aid with the conductor (a professional one) at the top of the steel "tower". Nonetheless it was a lot of hard work, I watched several videos of the rehearsals, instrument by instrument, and read what some of the musicians and staff wrote and... WOW! Yes, it's a huge miracle. http://ichef.bbci.co.uk/news/976/cps...284e6885b4.jpg The video got 15 228 245 views in 3 days! re-WOW! *double thumbs up* :D It's not the first time that such Guinness records events are organized, for example last year 1,000 musicians and singers from French Brittany tried it too (and failed because of a problem with the percentage of instruments required by Guinness) but I see a lot less enthusiasm and joy: http://www.huffingtonpost.fr/2014/06...n_5488716.html And the cherry on the pie for the Italians is that they did it to get the FF play their town and they succeeded. :cool: |
UPDATE: The town of Cesena sang it again on Nov 3
:cool: but I don't think it came out quite as good...
The original video now has 26,734,678 views -- this one has only 26,732,871 to go... http://rocktivity.com/Graphics/headbang.gif |

The White Stripes song is a disappointment -- should have pumped up the bass line.
