Roy calls this his 'microphone technique' haha, it's an awesome technique ! Only because it looks funny :) God how I love this band! The Hogs are the best, can't wait for their new album to come out in MAYYYYY!!!! :D
today i had a gig with my band, we were drunk like hell, and suddenly in the middle of our song I remembered this and did a same thing with a mic a few times :D girl were fucking shocked haha, but still I got people to laugh:)
The microphone thing is a bit weird, Dave Grohl of the Foo Fighters kind of does the same thing when he sings (though I've never seen him actually eat the mic). What actually happens is, the closer you put your mouth to the mic, the higher the bass response is and your voice sounds bigger and deeper.
Spacehog has so much energy on stage. It really is a great feeling to see them live! Just saw them the other night in New Jersey and it ruled! LOVE THIS BAND!
@TheIrishbassist I watched Royston do that at various gigs with the band, very funny! Him and his brother Anthony were nutters onstage. They played some great shows. I miss 'em! Comeback, SPACEHOG!!!!!!!!!
Man I don't know how he can get his mouth around that microphone. I know I can't do that! I love his facial expressions, cracks me up everytime I watch this vid.
i just heard this song for the first time on the radio today and i was wondering what it was then i thought to myself new rock had gotten crappier since the 90's. todays rock has lost the inspirational influences that these guys had.
he looks a bit like a cracked out jude law, not to mention he loves wrapping his lips on the mic, its understandable, when you go live, you do some random crazy shit on stage...like wrap your lips on things lol
Saw these guys on this tour in the Midwest, the singer came out in a fur coat with goggle sunglasses on and the guitarist ( his brother) dropped trou during this tune. Ha! Memories...great tune!
It's easy to tell the ones that have never seen spacehog live before, the band has always put a ton of energy in their live performances are consistent these GLAM ROCKES KICK ASS
It was a catchy tune; still stands up today if you don't watch the vids. At 1:20 this guy sounds like he's doing an imitation of old bag actress Katherine Hepburn singing, LOL.
I"m with you lastleroy...definitely over-the-top performance. Solarpoweredtree....I'm sure the show you saw was killer. But this post is about this video. And his vocals have smothered this catchy song. Antics Shmantics....if the band did get back together, they had better reinvent the moonwalk, 'cause no one is going to check them out. 'Cept you, apparantly
@thelastleroy, have you ever heard spacehog before? this is pretty legit. i saw them ages ago in St. Louis at Mississippi Nights. great show. not sure where you are from, but here in the states his "antics" are rock 'n roll. cool vid. this band needs to get back together.
It seems like the rest of the band is kind of embarrassed because of the singer's antics. The band sounds tight, but the singer is ruining an otherwise brilliant song with his over-the-top delivery. His kind of sounds like the kind of voice creepy old people put on when they're talking to babies or dogs or something.
The lead singer is about is stupid as it gets. Is he making monkey faces because he's on drugs, or is he trying to impress someone. Get real dude, you don't have to act spastic.
