the whole idea of Berklee and other music "colleges" is to be a snobby, humorless, elitist, self-entitled S.O.B. who is generally talentless and wouldn't survive being in the music industry without constant benevolent help.
Check out Lukather's wiki, what a resume the man has ...incredible. He is like a member of a modern day Wrecking Crew. As is everyone associated with TOTO. But Lukather should be up there with the all time greats. More versatile than most players, he is a master of many styles.
I'm a chic, a Minister's kid, 50+, and I would have probably fell out laughing because Luke's analogy was SPOT ON! I guess the offended chic at Berklee didn't pay attention. Luke was making the point that chops and flash have their place, but it's rhythm and solid groove that pays the house note! He isn't wrong!
What Luke is saying: Even doing session work, no matter how your lead guitar playing techniques are fantastic (shredding, tapping, hybrid picking, etc.) and great, YOU STILL CAN'T PLEASE EVERYBODY.
It's funny juvenile humor and not directed at anyone in particular. Berklee College officially teaches young adults. Freedom of speech or atristic expression perhaps is not being taught at Berklee. Sad. When I went to LaGuardia H.S. of Performing Arts, I heard far worse as a teenager from some instructors, and no one's feathers were ruffled, but that was NYC in the 80s. Toughen up people. Parents really need to start exposing their children to the real world as they enter into their teen years. Life itself can be offensive and harsh at times. Take a look outside.
The other side of this is Luke has been like this since at least the 1980s, he often made sex jokes like that during soundchecks at bars he was playing at to waitresses cleaning up the room. His problem isn’t that one joke, he has a reputation in the business as someone who doesn’t care what he says out loud in any work environment. He’s an incredibly good player but lacks a filter when he’s talking. Berklee isn’t the only place that won’t invite him back for saying aggressively sexual things to audiences. His job was as a guest music lecturer, people expected a music workshop, he likes to break the ice with porn jokes.
It’s an extremely good metaphor and if that offends you, you have no hope in the future; life is tougher than a joke. Honestly, what good IS a 20”? Trying to make baby elephants?
It doesn't matter WHO WENT TO THIS MUSIC SCHOOL, when someone is OUT OF LINE THEY NEED TO BE TOLD ABOUT IT, SO IT CAN BE RECTIFIED,,,,IN THIS CASE HE WAS KICK OUT AND TOLD YOU CAN NEVER COME BACK. WHAT MESSAGE IS THAT,,,,LETS SEE IF YOU KNOW ????. ITS NOT A PORNO CLASS.
People need to lighten up. That's hilarious 😂😂

Someone said there musicians,,,,,NOW THERE PERVERTS,,,,THANK STEVE
Badge of honor!
Dude is one of my all time favorite humans. Pretty good musician as well
I would never say my favorite person is a PERVERT. THINK NEXT TIME,,,,JUST LIKE STEVE SHOULD HAVE.
Ask a comedian these days what it's like to perform at universities.
Nobody wants to.
You will never get at any decent university anyway
Dont know much about toto, but this guy seems alright in my book
You may not know much about Toto, but you’ve likely listened its members without knowing it all your life.
@@oluwaboriogunafolabi3997 Tot(o)ally right!
Luke is one of those salt-of-the-Earth kinda dudes. You need to read his book.

But he is 💯 PERCENT CORRECT!
Not racist or sexist, not targeting anyone, and pretty funny.
Classic 👏🏽
Lol, f whoever was offended.
Preferably with a 20 incher
Genius is not always appreciated.
WHAT,,,,PERVERT
There's always one that messes it up for everyone. Always. 😒
Is there loss bro you're amazing
Bro got comedy chops, too.
There’s always a woman waiting to be outraged!

See, I'm a woman and I think it's funny, because men are so often obsessed with size, but any woman could agree with this comment!
The ban was worth its weight in gold just from that comparison!
Toto are one of my favourite groups. Lukather is a gent.
Lukather is GREAT!!
Berklee

Free speech alive and well on our campuses as always.
😂😂😂😂 he use to do that jokes infront of his daughters lol
He can do no wrong❤ typical dude
It’s Berklee , not Berkeley
Rockstars probably know the funniest jokes. Come on. That was funny.
It’s always the fuglies isn’t it

Covid was rough on Riki Rachtman
Junior high humor.
One person can't emotionally handle something and they now have to stop other people from saying things. Insane
LUKE!!
It's true !
That's a funny story😂😂😂

Who is this guy? He's frickin hilarious!
Karen has no sense of humor
Even a nine incher is too much
no wonder I'm still single 😢
So funny and so true! Who decides the language? The world is getting more and more censored! Specially on TH-cam
At first, I thought this was Rikki Rachtman. Then he was funny. So, I knew it wasn't.
It’s not Berkeley. It’s Berklee 🤦♂️
i'm chill and all, but the joke wasn't necessary
An art school canceling a very successful artist for a PG-13 joke. What is up with that?
And that is why Berkeley sucks.
Berklee but yes
Are you talking about UC in California or the music school in Massachusetts?
Their loss
Funny.
Berklee , get it right
Sunset Sound needs to learn how to spell BERKLEE correctly. He's not referring to Cal.
The fact that only one woman was in the seminar is just as offensive.
cmon look at her

There loss. He saw the beginnings of WOKE BS
That hair ?
Well come on know your audience. This was funny but are you 17? It’s a general audience music school presentation.
Dnc jihad the thought police
😂😂😂😂😂
That’s like something a drunk person would say. Unacceptable at a school.
So have a drink 🥃 😂
Not really
A very stupid joke to use in a public setting let alone when you are in front of an audience. A clown move...stop complaining.
It is disrespectful period, your a professional, do what they cane to see, not a porn star.... I agree with the Dean.
Dumb
@@jayfroggy just ask Jeff
Pretty stupid 14 year old humor actually.
Just laugh cupcake. You'll feel better.
It wasn't you in the audience was it?
Someone mad they had to google the meaning
Not racist or sexist, and not targeting any individuals. Pretty mature tbh, as hard as it can be to apply that word to comedy lol.
Triggered
If you go to GIT or Berklee et al I'm still a better musician than you. Some of us naturally have it. Sorry you don't.😅
You're just another dude named Bill online
@@corbjones2738 my name isn't Bill, Einstein 🤣😂

Uncouth. Lousy joke.
Good bit 😂
