Care to elaborate?

They dubbed over the original audio. There's a whole meme in this vein, apparently. Go to YouTube and look up StSanders.
Seriously, I haven't laughed this hard at anything in a while.

Interesting. So what you see in the video is them vamping? Are they even trying to match the music?

A) Boil's handle is apropos. B) This vid is side-splitting!

I remember hearing on CSPAN that they had to play the recording, because of the temperature. It was too cold to keep any of the string instruments in tune.

Y'know, when I watched a bit of this, I did notice they seemed a bit too animated, a bit too detached from their "charts". So, they mimed to a recording, "because it was too cold to keep the instruments in tune"?
Yeah, at least that's the excuse they gave. And a weak one, at that... a poor craftsman blaming his tools.
I mean, it's one thing if it's some dime-a-dozen Merseybeat band on an old American Bandstand show, or Ashlee Simpson on SNL, but a chamber quartet with Itzhak Perlman and Yo-Yo Ma? Jeezus, American "Culture" really is dead.
Garcia's voice may have sounded kinda' beat on some of those many nights I remember, but at least the Grateful Dead never faked it.

It was courteous of the crowd to repeat the same noises in a perfect loop.
