Do we go to concerts because we want...

a relationship with the artist?
If we just wanted music, we can turn on the radio or pop-in the CD.
I'm watching this news show on CBC News right now about a school that teach performers. They claim the lest important factor is talent, most important is the ability to connect to an audience.

Do you think that's true?

We already have a "relationship" with the artist, that's why we go to the concerts...well, one of the reasons. It's to make the relationship more personal and direct. It's also a chance to see directly someone who we've only come to know from a distance...kinda like online friendships/relationships, actually...lol

I go to concerts to see the singer perform and see them live. You never know when or if they will bring their tour to your city again.

Becuase there's nothing like hearing music live, watching the artist work their magic in a way that could be completely different than that CD you bought at the store. It's a whole different experience than listening to it at home on your stereo.

I go for an emotional rush of awe or excitment (usually fades after the first two numbers). sometimes as is the case with Prince or Radiohead (the two that come to mind right now) the sound/music itself reaches an emotional crescendo that overwhelms me!

that is an emotional connection.

At his stop here on The Reality Tour, Bowie made me cum just with his music. I'm not lying.

Connecting with the audience is like a current of water, flowing immediately from the prepared and inspired performer. wink

nod you are right.

Though performing is what Prince does better than anybody else I've ever seen, he makes you believe he is engaging in some fun with you rather than just singing on stage. I yelled out "I want to marry him!" at the concert and the (straight) guy next to me yelled "so do I!". He has that effect on people.

It all just sort of built up throughout the show, and came to a climax, so to speak when he did Ziggy Stardust as the final number. The precise moment I came was at the end Ziggy played guitar....

The last concert I went to was last year, the Eagles.
And in that stadium I realized why I still go to concerts.
To smoke pot with a giant group of people.

I was at a White Stripes concert a few weeks ago and i found it very hard to take my eyes off of Meg Whites' breasts.
They are much bigger in the flesh.

She struck up a relationship with me during that gig btw.

eek
Fuck the funk - it's time to ditch the worn-out Vegas horns fills, pick up the geee-tar and finally ROCK THE MUTHA-FUCKER!! He hinted at this on Chaos, now it's time to step up and fully DELIVER!!
woot!
