  • FletcherB,

    Actually... if you look and listen carefully, the "gorilla" isnt actually playing those drums.... Although he starts drumming when the drum-fill starts..... he's only hitting the snare with both sticks together in time with the basic rhythm..... where do the tom-fills come from? It's not actually even good drum miming....

    Phil Collins on the other hand.... he knows how to play rock drums (and I wish he'd forget how to "sing")

    Music video tip #2..... if you want to look like you are playing guitar...... have a lead or radio transmitter plugged into the socket on the front. You can still mime, but at least we might be able to convince ourselves we can hear your playing.... :)

  • Steve Barnes,

    Now I know the Ad your going on about. When I saw it my first thought was "Fake, OSH doesn't allow after work drinks anymore, someone might walk into a desk and graze a knee or something"

  • Steve Barnes,

    I just saw that Masterfoods Ad. you know, the one that pretends to be a fishing show on TV3 That bloke at the end cooking what looked like $300.00 worth of Snapper definitely was not "Talent" he ain't real either. Who knows what he is or what he stands for?

  • Dinah Dunavan,

    What amazes me is that anyone would think an ad was real! Sorry, I'm being silly. Everyone knows most advertisements are real situations caught on camera. Especially the elephant with the air freshener.
    It always looked like a cheap bollywood musical to me. Does your work do song and dance routines on Friday after work? Nope? Mine doesn't either. sniff.

  • Craig Ranapia,

    I was thinking more Dennis Potter -- though brilliant as Pennies from Heaven and The Singing Detective are (in a fraught, psychosexually twisted kind of way) Bollywood is a lot more fun.
