These one-take vids from Rhett Shull have been really good. I was particularly taken with the tone of the lead guitar at 2:25.

Great job by the band...

The one thing I don't understand is why there is suddenly such a furor over bands using click tracks. I fully understand lip synching and autotune post editing but IMHO click track is nothing more than a fancy metronome, anything that helps you stay in tempo is OK to me.

I read that U2 used a click track all the time.

Yeah., I mean it's only helping you keep time, you still have the have the chops and talent to sound good. And U2 is one of those acts, love em or hate em, that sounds damned good and tight.

How do you know your drummer is at the door? The knocking speeds up.

I first heard that joke back in the 80s and it's funny because there's some truth in it for most musicians. I think a click track just helps good musicians get in the pocket a little easier without having to keep chasing it.
