overused "live" performance gimmicks that irritate you 1. the rapper and the live band---not talking about the roots or anybody like them...talking about the rapper who doesn't know a guitar from a violin.

when the lead singer stages a "sing along contest" to see which side of the audience sings better. stop that right now. i didn't pay a damn ticketmaster fee to hear the audience sing. i paid to hear the people on stage sing. quit being lazy, put that microphone in your face, and SING INTO IT! | |

pyrotechnics!!!!! janet abused them on the Rock Wit U Tour. it is necessary to help others, not only in our prayers, but in our daily lives. If we find we cannot help others, the least we can do is to desist from harming them.

 you're talking about prince, right?  it's got to the point where in
some shows he'll play the opening chords and let the crowd do everything after that. he'll just throw in a word here and there and pluck a bass. i was born with the wrong sign, in the wrong house, with the wrong ascendancy | |

my number one pick along with: -the request to "make some noise" -follwed by "put your hands together" -not to be confused with "throw your hands in the air" -people performing with a towel in hand -children's choir -looking out at the audience and pretending to cry... just as you did the night before -bringing people onstage to dance or sing along -pretending to sing [Edited 12/16/08 9:19am] "I do not understand how anyone not named Grace Jones was ever allowed to think of themselves as "fierce." - Sasha Frere-Jones | |

video projection... i long for the days before we had giant video screens everywhere on stage. it is necessary to help others, not only in our prayers, but in our daily lives. If we find we cannot help others, the least we can do is to desist from harming them.

(Ho!) Say oooooh weeeee!!!! (Ooooooh weeeee!) Say oh oh oh oh!!!!! (Oh oh oh oh!) Say na na na na!!!!! (Na na na na!) That shit is so played out and gets on my last nerve. Another thing that gets on my damn nerves is an artist stopping the show and doing a damned acoustical set on a stool with a Buck Owens looking guitar. Hell, I didn't come to hear good jams stripped down sounding like a damn "Hee Haw" hillbilly sing-a-long. Dammitt, if the band needs to change clothes, just have an intermission. That way I can go get another beer and piss out some of the previous beer. | |

Madonna pisses me off when she won't continue until she thinks people have sung whatever she wants them to sing loud enough for her. It's almost as if she's saying "Bitches, you best sing or I am not going to continue with the show"

Co-sign. Although, an exceptionally well conceived and tasteful burlesque performance can still be pretty cool. One of the best I've seen was actually done by a guy! It was at a drag show, but there was an intermission performer -- performing in butch male attire -- who did a sort of burlesque performance with a chair and a whip. It wasn't at all explicit, but it was incredibly sexy... and artistically near-perfect. [Edited 12/16/08 13:30pm] ________________

Dancing that looks completely forced and not part of the music in any way. You don't have to be doing some "move" just move to the music. Rappers saying "uh, uh" before they begin a verse. Rapper who hold the microphone the "cool" way, so you can't understand a word they say Professional dancers distracting from the fact that the main performer is not very interesting. drum solos. They never were interesting to anyone but the people playing them [Edited 12/16/08 12:50pm]  Over the backup dancer gimmick. | |

Pharell drumming with Dave Matthews, Vince Gill and... Sting? 
(Though, in fairness the last mash-up only happened in a video; not live. Thank goodness. 
)
