I've seen some of the other live clips of Sean trying to play lead guitar and it was actually embarrassing. He is not a good guitarist but when he did his lead he dropped to his knees in this one video like he was Hendrix or something. There were 3 of us watching it and we all broke out laughing. Sean only inherited two things from his genius dad. Money and the name "Lennon".
Sorry Sean, but genius is NOT hereditary ... you have the last name but that is all... get into another line of work and dont embarass yourself trying to fill the shoes of a legend.
Oh for Christ sake.....what the hell is Pete Townshend wasting his time with this spoiled brat for? The only reason anyone is giving this kid the time of day is because of his lineage.
@rockandroll4life1 And you felt the need to be rude and point that out. As if people didn't know that Townsend has about 50 years more musical experience than Sean Lennon.
Seems like Pete is really struggling to hear what he's playing here. I wish he would look into getting a cochlear implant to restore his hearing. It's becoming a more common procedure nowadays.
A Cochlear implant is a surgically implanted electronic device that provides a sense of sound to a person who is profoundly deaf or severely hard of hearing. Rush Limbaugh had one put in when he went deaf and while it can be a hit or miss procedure, the technology is getting better.
I was at this show too. I wasn't particularly enthused to see Sean Lennon on the bill, but he was great.....really great. The same goes for Martha Wainwright. Those "Attic Jams" were so good. I miss them.
