Band's Glee cover bait and switch from @l3x1pr0

The creator shows a clip of the band Geese performing at the Outside Lands festival. The lead singer addresses the crowd, explains they couldn't license the original master for a song, and instead plays the Glee cast's version of 'Don't Stop Believin'' from his phone through his guitar pickup. After a few lines of the pop cover, the band abruptly interrupts it and launches into their own loud, aggressive rock song.
