Note also the lack of amps and electricity. This is really an eco-friendly group, altho it might be a little hard to hear them from more than a few feet.

Nunatak rehearses for its Live Earth performance scheduled for July 7. The band consists of researchers with the British Antarctic Survey and is based at the Rothera Research Station in Antarctica. British Antarctic Survey

What a bunch of hippies.

How is the guitarist getting any dexterity playing his axe while wearing mittens ?


It’s not about results! It’s about how he FEEEEEELS!

From the Q&A page:

Q: How did British Antarctic Survey get involved in Live Earth
A: BAS was invited by former US Vice President and Co-chair of Live Earth Mr Al Gore

Warm fuzzies all around please.

Where’s the generator to supply electricity for the sound board and speakers that are not there, as well as the jack lines for the electric lead and bass guitars?

Just sayin’.

Jack.

Well it is a base guitar. Four Strings instead of Six. This makes him 1/3rd less ignorant.

If I’m not mistaken, this picture has been floating on the internet (and FR) prior to the actual concerts yesterday.

I have come to believe most bass guitarists are not bright.

“There is something odd about this picture, namely that it is the dead of Winter in Antarctica right now. The conditions there right now are perpetual darkness and unbearably cold temperatures. Yet in this photo, it is daylight, and one of the musicians isn’t even wearing a hat. Exposed skin is highly susceptible to frostbite at temperatures below -20 degrees. If you look closely, you can even see liquid water in the background which would not be possible this close to land.”

Are you saying that the people aren’t actually in Antarctica? As I understand it, access to the base there is impossible between April and October so I’m not sure how they would have got out or what form you think the ‘scam’ is taking.

How long are your arms? Nice fish. Did you catch him in Maine. I thought the fish were smaller as you went north. What did he weigh?

Oops... Sorry, not my pic. I just grabbed it to make the graphic for a Friday Silliness Thread a while ago.

I personally am a balding, middle-aged, fat guy.
