    I love the fact that the person in the middle chair just gets absolutely nothing to do. I love the utter randomness and insane structure of this sketch so much. And, of course, I love Jason's dancing.

      It's actually not hard. When you've been jamming with each other for decades. And it's even easier when you all know what you're playing. If you've ever been in a band long enough you can just feel the music off each other. Whether it's a gift or not, as a drummer I can play with any random guitarist, jam out and keep the timing in sync. Most musicians should know what im talking about. That perfect time synchronization of improvised groove. Hell, I'd even add music is the closest thing we can get to actual real magic.

    Jason Sudeikis’s role (VANCE, the dancing GUY) is by far the best improv character he performs on SNL and he did it all without saying one word. This simply speaks to the overall degree of mastery in which he’s honed the craft of improvisation.

      "This simply speaks to the overall degree of mastery in which he’s honed the craft of improvisation."
      This is the most pretentious sentence I have ever seen on youtube. Why do all of you people think you're art critics all of a sudden? When did this happen? I'm so sick of it. No one can just say that they like something anymore. They have to use faux-intellectual, pretentious, condescending language in a pathetic attempt to convey that they're smart or that they recognize talent when they see it. You are not special. You are an idiotic parrot, repeating what you have seen everyone else say for years. You are pathetic.

    Love the confused look on Paul Simon's face when Lindsey is playing. He's like, "Do I smile or do I stay in character for the sketch where I am upset?"

      @@carlyh6913 Meaning he was supposed to be upset for the sketch, but he couldn’t stay in character because he was so impressed with the playing.

    I can't remember where I saw him last but I think Paul Simon was on SNL back in the 80s a few times and he was always really good at playing the straight man in comedy sketches. His look when he was talking and the music started back up was priceless.

    • @peterk8909
      @peterk8909 6 лет назад +4

      Doug Kelly I think it was on SNL, Simon was hosting and Garfunkel was the musical guest. In the bit they did together, Simin said to Garfunkel, "I knew you'd come crawling back". LMFAO.

      One of the great sketches in the 70’s comes out in a Turkey 🦃 costume. Sings “Still Crazy after all these Years”. Then stops and protests because the costume is embarrassing.
