posting live tracks now just leaves me wondering if that is how they actually sounded like in concert or just what has been fixed in post production.

I am sure yours is real but other new ones... nothing is real anymore. Singing over backing tracks and getting people upset when its pointed out

Its obvious that the place that was performed at wouldn't let her look bad. Many times you now paying to see them... not hear them. Live is meant to mean something more than they showed up.
 
The Eagles have recently just been using pre recorded pitch corrected vocals in live shows, so you not hearing them sing like they do now ... but how they sounded in past

So some bands aren't even live when they on stage. They are alive... but not playing. I wouldn't pay for a ticket for that. I don't hero worship anyone that much.

Audiences have to have some sense... you can't expect singers to sound the same 50 or more years later. Not everyone can maintain it.

Bow out gracefully

One of the worst concerts I ever went to was Aerosmith.
Tyler fell of the stage 3 times during the first song.
Mothers Finest opened for them and blew them away.
Local band.

I saw Stryper in the 1980's, the drummer fell off his drum rise... we assumed it was drug related, which is ironic.


thought: Its almost at stage I start to think... The bands who never release live albums don't play live. As it would be too easy to compare "live" albums to each other if they were just miming.

Too hard to tell if what you hearing is real, even in concert.

Maybe in retrospect, Axl Rose refusing to come on stage until he was ready was not as arrogant as we thought...
That is just him. He has been doing that since Welcome to Jungle Tour in 1988. I saw them on that tour, their support band played and then... we waited entire length of the Hysteria album by Def Leppard to play before GnR came on stage... it wasn't a memorable concert, mostly what I remember is their support band was better and the wait. I don't remember them playing...

Since he wasn't told to stop then, he never will.

Slash's awesome autobiography sheds some light on those issues. It wasn't just support bands. Ironically, one of the bands that asked "Hey, where's your singer?" was Aerosmith.

I think Axl was flying higher than most, and i don't mean the drugs.
If I'm not mistaken that would of been in late 79 or early 80 @ the Omni Atlanta.
My favorite seating areas were 127-128-101 and if lower level was not available 236 front row balcony.
Aerosmith nearly broke up several times during those days. I don't really know much more than that, but drugs were certainly involved.

Drugs and or excessive alcohol were certainly involved that night.
Saw them again mid 85 and it was a very good show. Cleaned up a little by then.

I never got the stardom of slash.
Saw them twice.
( still have an addiction to music and concerts) :grinning: One saw three major concerts in one week.
I know, I know, serious addiction territory.
He would not be on my greatest guitarist list ,but his style and pizazz fit GnR well.
Mr Brownstone might explain a few things.

My favorite genre is technically not a genre and I'm super picky (as in a song or two from an artist but not everything), it's when two genders are mixed. Back in the day the only official one I can think of was called Numetal.

These days there's one band I like consistently though and that's Pendulum, a mix of EDM and Rock. BTW if anyone has spare money and wants to donate the same SynthGuitar (Ztar) Rob uses to me, please feel free to let me know, dream instrument to own.

But right now I'm listening to two songs before bed:

I suspect AI was used. It looks like it.

Devin offers as a definition: “I would say that a PowerNerd would be somebody that has a tendencythat society has deemed weak or not valuable, whether that’s empathy or being an insular person oran introvert, and turns that into a type of personal power. It’s like, ‘OK, yeah, I’m sensitive to this,that and the other thing, but man, I am going to pull through! I am going to do things with that sensitivity that are rooted in strength.’”
