OH my freakin...jeez! Andrea. I just wrote the following grumble...after watching the vid a few times through...BEFORE opening YOUR post. And BLAM...what a funny mutual consensus (& I was feeling all…...uh...persnickety..& shit...)
<>>>
What kinda has blown me away for a long time is…
(listen to) the audience chatter…during the song. The band puts 100% blood, sweat &
tears into a set they spent weeks rehearsing…and the spec-taters eat, drink, and…make
mundane barroom conversation… and must think; play monkey, play, you gota a job to
do. Hehe…jeez! How many took the time to consider the perfect arpeggios, the vocal
control, those perilous lookin’ cats and the verity that none o them got fur & tails.
Maybe 10%, …20?
…funny
………………cool song, gents
(I mean, shit, I’ve sat through at least a few boring plays, …boring, while two hundred
people sat in absolute silence, not a murmur, perfect respect for the fourth wall. ..So five
fellas arrange and rehearse what two, three sets, and they take to the stage, only 3 walls
…no allegory fourth wall in a bar, and they play a lowland ballad, …like a monolog
..under a single spot, …and the office manager behind her stack of onion rings
laughs about the latest scandal and the table over there is playin’ quarters
at least the applause is appropriate, timed with respect for the ending
I don’t know, maybe I’m just uh.. nitpicking the existing condition.
