Title: I feel sorry for ALL of you...
Post by: Bricktop on February 05, 2017, 08:02:19 PM
Because I saw Simple Minds and the B52's last night, and you didn't.

Unfortunately, the rain god was in a foul mood. This, in a climate where it typically never rains between October and April!!! Bastard.



We got drenched...but better that than 40C and getting baked.

ON the subject of classic rock, Black Sabbath did their very last concert in their home town of Birmingham, UK.

And by the way, I would love to have seen Simple Minds.

The B52's are they flamboyant camped up chicks in blue and scarlet,with a VERY gay man between them in a white shirt and shorts.



Simple Minds are the others, with a couple of hot chicks, one in latex.

So i noticed some unfamiliar faces in the B-52's pics. I know at least one of their original members had died over teh years. I could probably just Google this, but I think they had a bassist called Sarah Lee who had a heroin problem.

If they were still a popular act it would be a good deal..



They would probably have played a small venue here like a casino.

There's only three originals, Fred and the 2 ladies.



The original guitarist died of AIDS.



They were the core of the group. Bass, drums and keyboard were largely session/touring musos.



I was surprised at how punchy and gutsy their sound was.

The music world has changed.



Many artists of the past haven't sold new music, because CD sales have tanked. As many musos have testified, the music industry based on selling CD's has changed. It has been corporatised to the extent that it doesn't matter how good you are, but how many units you can move. So, we see drek like Myley Cyrus, Justin Bieber, Britney Spears and others selling CD's to teen girls so that Sony can make a lot of money with little effort.



But the bands that could play their music live, and excite the crowd with energy and musicianship are touring more and more, because that's where their revenue comes from.

Unfortunately, the rain god was in a foul mood. This, in a climate where it typically never rains between October and April!!! Bastard.



We got drenched...but better that than 40C and getting baked.

I like both Bricktop.

Quote from: "shin"How much did the concert set you back, moneywise?


$200 a seat.



But that was premium front row (5th row to be precise).


Still a good deal.

But, neither band has done anything in years..



If they were still a popular act it would be a good deal..



They would probably have played a small venue here like a casino.


I think you really have to enjoy concerts to warrant spending $200 for a seat. I can tell you it's an entirely different experience when you're that close to the stage, and if it's one of your favorite bands from the past you might wonder if you'll ever get to see them live again.



I don't go out of my way to see concerts anymore, but I've seen Depeche Mode 3 times. I would see them again even though they're a shaodw of their former selves and I don't really like anything they've done since their "Ultra" album.

I don't get spending top buck to see an artist who hasn't been in their prime for 25 years. Mommy likes her concerts though.

There are some bands and artists can still rock it many decades past when they were at the top of their careers. I saw Rush seven years ago and they put on an amazing show.

I would KILL to see DM!!!



They rarely tour in Australia, as for some reason they don't sell as well as Europe and the US.



They are one of the best going around.

Depeche Mode were pioneers of electronic music and one of the few bands of that genre I liked.

Maybe you'll feel differently when you're older and you start to like the new artists a lot less than the music you grew up with. I didn't always feel this way.



There's something to be said about nostalgia. Also, wasting money is a national pasttime.  ac_biggrin

New Order is on my bucket list. They've played some medium sized venues here in the last 10 years when they toured for their last two albums. It won't be the same without the original bassist, but I like most of their stuff dating back to "Confusion".
