I dunno, Pookie, 20+ responses and nobody yet seems to have made the connection with your thread title...
Back in the day, the lip-sync'ing on these shows was so atrocious. I think the most horrible example I ever saw was Randy Bachman trying to "perform" You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet. It was so 'off' it was just outrageous...

Sorry, couldn't find the regular clip (sans News Report).
I'd prefer to have a bad night's vocal performance than ever be caught lip-syncing.

Not even power cables. Those electric guitars run on batteries, I guess...
Yeah, saw that when I first watched. It was so common to have the stuff unplugged on those shows that it barely registered. You see, in the 70s, there was a brief lapse in the ability to synchronize sound in television. A videotape issue, methinks. So, they just unplugged everything. Lawrence Welk, famed TV conductor and closet inventor, finally figured it out in 1983.
I totally need his orchestra behind me wherever I go. I think I'd make them wear the powder blue tuxes though.

I guess I was riveted by the Solid Gold dancers.
Oh yeah. And what about Denny Terrio? It was a very bad time.
You know, the girl in the Lawrence Welk video at :42 is kind of intriguing me in a creepy, bordering on stalker-ish kind of way. How old is she now? Hmm... like 70 or something? Okay, now I'm getting really creeped-out.
