After seeing Roger in Oslo last night, I'm starting to think that there might be a lot more lip-synching than we want to believe... The man can't even talk without the voice cracking up on every second word, but when singing it sounds fine all the time.

It was still a nice show, but I hand it to whoever it was saying it was more like a very good Pink Floyd cover band.

He obviously lip synched in Oslo last night as well on some songs. I couldn't stand see him lip synching 'Fletcher' , so I went to get more beer after 'Southampton Dock'. 'Fletcher Memorial Home' was like listening to 'Echoes' or 'TFC' version over the speakers. The entire 'Sheep' was lip synched as well. I was pretty far back when he did 'Have A Cigar' , so I couldn't see if he lip synched it or not, it sounded genuine though. Another bad thing was that it was totally bright outside, sumn hadn't even gone down when the show started. There were no round Mr- Screen, or the "fire rings".


Sounds familiar, doesn't it? :wink:


It seems in the world of rock a lot of the bands that maybe lipping are getting old and cant do it anymore,therefore they should step down and make way for new blood.WASP by all accounts have most of the show on tape.I find little to be happy about finding out a singer in a band i see live is miming.I have no desire to see them if this is the case,i hope a lot more bands are exposed..lipping sucks big time.If to many get away with it shows will all be mime soon then rock is no better than Britney Spears cabaret shows :evil:



I have two good friends who are huge Wasp fans and they have also told me that Blackie Lawless lip-syncs live and has been doing so for at least five years now if not even longer than that.

Then WASP should split up,MetalSludge did a story about the tapes from a sound guy,how pathetic.This is a very disturbing habit among many bands. :evil:
