>ooooooh yeah I'm rocking out so hard bro>watch me thrust my hips in the air while I hold this guitar>now I'm going to hunch over and do these super exaggerated strumming motions like I'm trying to start a lawnmower>better randomly twist my body around and swing the neck of the guitar for no reasonFucking stand still and play the song you fucking faggot. Literally no different to DJs pressing play on a macbook and pretending to fiddle with nobs and switches while head-bobbing for no reason.Seriously, why was this shit normalised?Give me one goddamn fucking reason why they can't just stand still and play the song.
>>129489348>Why do musicians act like such faggots?not the ones I like, might be a (You) problem?
>>129489348okay nerd
>>129489348t. Robert Fripp
>>129489348so why does the audience face the musicians at concerts if they ain't supposed to do any showmanship?
Why don't you go and ask him OP.I'll wait.
>>129489348I KNOW WE'RE COOLGWEN STEFANI - COOL (OFFICIAL VIDEO)https://youtu.be/TGwZ7MNtBFU?si=PjUYPJbwlEHmYVvEC-COOOOOLLLLLcuz we're high off ur teenage sisters crotchjuice.

>>129489348It's called working the crowdIf you have a band sitting still like a bunch of wooden poles, the audience will get bored quickly
>>129489437Ops talking about the beetles
because it's hot
>>129489499
Crowds love that shit. The average person is stupid. They hear with their eyes. It makes people think their is something going on. Go look at the Ramones pose. Posturing without substance. It works. Embrace theatrics and profit.
Eric Clapton rarely did this after he quit drugs and sobered up. Maybe it’s a drugs thing.Clapton is one of the greatest of the greats
>>129489499i love it when dave stands like an anime girl
I went to an Oasis comcert like 15 years ago and all they did was stand around playing the songs and it was the boring fucking concert Ive ever seen, could have stayed home and listened to Stop The Clocks insteads of dealing with faggots in the crowd pretending to be british
Imagine caring about visuals in a sonic medium
>>129489848you can always stay at home listening to the studio albums
holy shit and they say kpop threads are bad
>>129489877When I go to shows I close my eyes
>>129489366fpbp
>>129490139this. unless they have a really cool light show (which these days is rare, usually it's just a big fuckin' screen with closeups of the sweaty-ass musicians playing), I close my eyes and try to listen as deep as possible to the music.
>>129490139>>129490448What's the point of going to see a concert if you're not going to "see" anything or interact with anyone around you. If you just want the sensation of listening to music, you could just listen to the albums at home. You can even get a few drinks to get buzzed while sitting around in your houseTalking to other people or even just dancing with other people at a concert is one of the most fun parts of it
>>129489348>t. has never rocked a crowd
>>129490749>why doesn't everybody enjoy things the same way I do?>live music is exactly like pre-recorded music if you close your eyes>your home stereo is just like a concert PA>talking to people at concerts is more important than shutting up and listening to the music
>>129489348OP has never done anything creative in his life.Few such cases.Sad.
>>129489437>It's called working the crowdnot necessarily, not at all. kind of shocking how unworldly you guys are.
>>129489348>head-bobbing for no reasonreally? big 4-on-the-floor beats and there's no reason to head-bob?>>129490783that cat totally looks like my old cat Polonius, who we had to put down last year. :(
>>129490792>>why doesn't everybody enjoy things the same way I do?If you're standing around a concert with your eyes closed, you're going to become a safety hazard. Or someone will bump into you at some point and you'll fall over>live music is exactly like pre-recorded music if you close your eyes>your home stereo is just like a concert PAA lot of the time, live music is going to sound slightly worse than an album, especially if you care about the small details. If you genuinely want the "best" experience listening to a song, the pre-recorded version on an actual dedicated device is going to sound better than live>talking to people at concerts is more important than shutting up and listening to the musicMore like don't stand around with your eyes closed. Absolute worst case scenario, security thinks you're high off your tits and confronts you over it
>>129490826>that cat totally looks like my old cat Polonius, who we had to put down last year. :(it's "whom" we had to put down last year :(
>>129489348you have autism
>>129490821This
>>129490837>A lot of the time, live music is going to sound slightly worse than an album, especially if you care about the small details. If you genuinely want the "best" experience listening to a song, the pre-recorded version on an actual dedicated device is going to sound better than livezomg wow, what a take. Jesus christ, that's quite possibly the stupidest thing I've ever read on the internet, leddit included. It sounds like you've never been to an actual musical performance, or really truly don't understand what music is, other than your autism says that you should cling to the familiar "album" version of something and call it "better". I pity you anon, for real, that you've never heard a band that's better live than in the studio. I'm older, and have seen a fuckton of bands and literally the only band I've ever seen whose music is worse live than in the studio was Motely Crue. Jesus christ they sucked. There I kept my eyes open, because at least lasers & pyro made it entertaining.>Or someone will bump into you at some point and you'll fall over because you're standing there with your eyes closedliterally has never happened>security thinks you're high off your tits and confronts you over italso literally has never happened>>129490852there's a good reason captious sounds just like catpiss.
>>129490749>talking to other people or even just dancing with other people at a concert is one of the most fun parts of itEw
>>129491038>literally the only band I've ever seen whose music is worse live than in the studio was Motely CrueThat's because they can't play or hit the notes. I think you're confusing two different issues here or you're just assuming that louder makes better>other than your autism I was going to hold back on saying it, but I don't think the person standing around in a crowd with his eyes closed to "hear the music better" is in any position to call someone else autistic. I thought that was a lowblow so I didn't bother mentioning it>I pity you anon, for real, that you've never heard a band that's better live than in the studio.Are you thinking exclusively of bands struggling to get a good sound across on their studio albums in the 70s or something?>literally has never happenedNow you're just lying. If you've never had someone hit into you at a concert, you're either lying or you're only going to concerts where the average age of the concert goer is 50+>also literally has never happenedYou've never seen security pull someone over?
>>129491083Do you just go to a room/venue full of people and try to ignore them for the 2+ hours you're there?
>>129491144Try? Lol
>>129489416This. I saw KC in Boston and he leaned in his stool a bit. My buddy said, “holy shit, he’s into it tonight.”
>>129489348for roughly the same reason most people don't get their diploma in the mail. it's really exciting just to move on from yet another day of practice. sure some people are deliberately clowns but it's hard not to feel that kind of released energy from both the effort and the nervousness once things get going.
>>129489348Maybe they're all bisexuals.
Shut up, autist
