This is 'What Happened To You' live, Dexter plays the solo! kind of a change i guess, the only other song i know he plays the solo in is Dirty Magic.
Awesome video, it had spectacular camera action and they played great. Nice big crowd who sang along and Dexter played the solo good.

I was actually thinking as I watched it that the camera work was a LOT better than in most of their live videos. I also like that the crowd got excited for the song and sang along. I think that song is severely underrated... I really like it :) That song and Don't Pick It Up make me wonder why they had to do "worst hangover ever". WHTY and DPIU are such good reggae/ska songs, WHE was just overkill... I dunno. For some reason, I just love those two, and I can't stand hangover...

I knew you'd like this video because of the camera. Those songs you mentioned, maybe it's because they all sounds happy but The Worst Hangover Ever is a bit slow and annoying?

hehe you know me too well ;)
hmm... I just played those three songs on my playlist to see what it is...
first of all, I like his voice better in the first two... the bassline in "Don't pick it up" rocks.... and I like the drum fills... and the backup vocals.
and yeah, hangover is slow and lethargic... and I don't like all the electronic crap in it... the horns are a little annoying, though the bassline is cool. his voice is a little annoying in it. I really think it all comes down to it being too slow, electronic instruments, and his voice sounding so stretched.
The Worst Hangover ever has the jazz/dj sound to it and all these extra abnormal instruments. That's probably why.

yeahhh. that's pretty much what i meant by electronic. I guess dj/scratching is kind of electronic in my mind...

The t-shirt's alright. Doesn't really go with the hair. Dex wears the t-shirt a lot.

hahaha. I've never analyzed a band's outfit during a live show :P however, nothing can be as bad as when dexter wore that leopard striped suit or whatever it was in like 1997. Awful.
Haha, yeah his pants are gay :p. I just don't notice crap :p.

Really? that's so awesome, but they like hardly ever play Pay The Man and What Happened To You live, don't they?
Actualy...Dexter basicly plays the lead for Can't Repeat too...

Finally decided to register...
He also plays the solo in LAPD as seen on the home vid that has them playing at the 13th Floor (I believe it's the Da Hui vid).
He also plays the lead riff in Come out and Play (the eqyptian riff) and the lead riff in TKAA (not the solo, the main riff to the song).
thanks for actually reading my post ;)

Why do you guys reckon Dexter played the solo?

I read your post, but yours was less direct and insulting... plus I know you actually read my posts, I get more surprised when other people do :p
maybe he played it cause noodles let him take a little glory that day ;) or he just wanted to throw things around for a little crowd reaction.

Haha, alright next time I'll make it more insulting :p.
Although Dexter gets most of the credit, the crowd would really like to see that Dexter can do the solos and is a great guitarists. The crowds loves it.
