LUKES NOT MASTURBATING HIS HAND IS JUST SPAZZING BECAUSE ITS HOW HE KEEPS IN TIME WITH THE VOCALS. USUALLY HE HAS HIS GUITAR IN HIS HANDS TO KEEP IN TIME.

There that should clear things up.

[SudoMade]

Pnau rock, luke did good. Anybody have "celebrate the failure"?

[aintnoswan]

@GeneralHoohah Are you for real if this is lip sinking then you would be a deaf mute as you can hear how pitchy this is. Still rather good but it's live. Luke wouldn't do it any other way.

@Firstriver333 I don't think anyone really cares because they see what they see, I dig this band and would love to see a concert of them.
