Welding the Solar Eclipse

Listening to "'60s on 6" on Sirius/XM yesterday on the way to work and the morning DJ was telling a story about one of his listeners sending him a pair of approved glasses to watch the upcoming eclipse.
He put them on and said he couldn't see a thing - not even when looking directly at the light in the booth.
He then said he was starting the next song and apologized when it wasn't what he said it was going to be...said he must have hit the wrong button by mistake because he couldn't see a thing while he was wearing the glasses and couldn't tell which button was which.
I thought it would have been hilarious if the next song that played would have been either from Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder or Ronnie Milsap.
