OK I finally found this guy in a format I can send. Here he is on You Tube. THis is a man from a town very near me. JAck Horning. Now you will think this is a goof or he knows this is bad but is trying to be funny...........No......he is very serious and actually has an hour show on one of the local TV stations! THis is the funniest thing I have seen in my memory as far as music. ! I want to be this guys manager! He is priceless! NO ONe and I mean NO ONe can sing and play this bad............HE is totally tone deaf, I tried to sing like him but it is impossible to sound this bad......... Anyway you have to see it I can't describe it.

I think this might be what one of Cliff's gigs are like. Well at least the festive Shirt.
ENJOY

I have an idea ! This could be used as a torture for the terrorists! Honest to god after you stop laughing it becomes a challenge to see how long you can watch before shutting it off, It is like a sensory pain, Now KIDS this is what DRUGS will do to a Rock Star! THis used to be David Lee Roth... But like an addict you'll come back to watch some more.
SO far my record is 2 minutes at high volume. Test youselves....If you can do the whole 5 your a far better man than I!

2ifby, you lasted 121 seconds!! I lasted about 84 seconds. It was so BORING I couldn't take it.
I am happy about 1 thing though. I just moved out of the top ten of worst singers ever!!! LOL!!! (Kidding!!, maybe worst 100)

I was listening for around 5-7 seconds. You guys are really SICK! Just to think this kind of thing is taking up space on youtube's server.... Someone needs to take control of the situation. Even I can sing and play better than that. Hey, this just gave me an idea..... ;) :D :p

I dunno guys. I needed that. It just elevated my guitar playing to a much higher level. I'm much closer to Tommy Emmanual than I thought! :)

Inspires me to write, too. It's not that I now "think" I could write a decent song, I now know I "can" write something better than that. PBS, here I come!

:) :) :)

In all fairness, he has a good voice, he just needs to work on getting the right notes in the right place. :)

I had to look again, I made it to 50 seconds and my arm fell off.

Post your best time! Mine is just over 2 minutes but I spent more than half that laughing so hard I could not hear him anyway. He has two songs on that video but you can't tell the difference and I do not know what the names of either of them are anyway. ! I am sorry to keep posting but I have just never seen anyone like this in my life! And he lives very near to me. I need to get some lessons!

I did it, I watched and listened to the whole thing, all 6:49.

Reminds me of the time I was abducted by aliens, abducted by aliens, abducted by aliens.......

No, it's Estaban without the hat and dark glasses, I'd recognize that guitar anywhere!

It's too bad the resolution isn't better. I'm trying to learn all those chords, but I just can't seem to get them right. :)

I let it run most of the way through (I was doing other things...)
But I was waiting for it to get better, or get to the Punchline... Or... Anything!

Nope, it was bad all the way through!

:mad: Hey! Old Dude! Open tuning and One Finger! :mad:

Gotta give him credit tho'... He's Dedicated!

Mockery aside, this guy is playing the INSIDE on the INSIDE.

(never understood that phrase but it works well for sh**t that's totally OUTSIDE, as any jazzer would say :p )

I'm sure Mr. Horning was quite the entertainer before the stroke.


Honestly! You people.....
