Not to excuse him, but I can tell you after doing a few shows of that size (as an opener of course!!!) that at that volume, it becomes very difficult to trust your ears and be absolutely sure that you're hearing yourself be flat, and not something else. Everything is literally a roar, and those guys are friggin LOUD.

Hell, the audience can't tell at that volume, and the musician is no better after 2 hours of that volume. It can be very disorienting.

Sure. that explains why the bass player was playing in key and Eddie was
not. This debate has been going on for quite a while. If you A/B the clip
against the original the synth part is in the original key. as is the bass.
But Eddie seems a bit confused throughout the song. A musician of his skill
should have been able to transpose on the fly, instead of plowing through a
4 minute song (including his solo) a half tone flat.

He wasn't flat.

The DA convertor used to play the sample was set at the wrong sample rate ;)
