When performing, Mackenzie often sticks his tongue out, stands with a back-and-forth rocking motion, and displays feats of guitar showmanship, such as playing behind his head. In addition, his frequent shouts of "woo!" and "eeeyup!" both live and on recording have become a staple of the band's sound.[2]
