.. in fact, bassist Chris Wolstenholme admitted – during a brief chat before the show – that the band thrives on the concert stage. “Playing live is what it’s all about. It’s the true test of any band. With the technology you have now, you can take very average musicians into a studio and make them sound very good. But it’s obviously a different story when you gotta go on stage and play.”He cited the changes in the record industry as a key factor to why live music has become bread and butter for the performing musician.
“And because of the way the record industry has gone, I think the quality of live music has improved, so bands are aware that in order to go out and make money, they have to be good live because they can’t sell 10 million records anymore. Live music is stronger now than it’s ever been before.”
FIRST, I’d like to bawl my eyes out for NOT attending one of the best concerts in the world by one of THE best bands (hello, in my opinion, thankyouvermuch)
MUUUUUUUSSSSSSEEEEEEEE :(
If you have not seen their live performances on YouTube, MTV or whatever, then I suggest you go cut yourself or HANG yourself. You have no idea what your missing out on.
Vocals? awesome. Lyrics? epic. Stage presence? one of a kind. Performance? indescribable. Concerts? makes me wanna commit suicide temporarily for not attending them T_T
I honestly think that they are just as great as Coldplay (&& no one can beat MY Coldplay :) )
SECOND, that snippet is from an article I read in today’s edition of The Star Two, and was copied&paste from The Star Online. Why this particular snippet? It is because that comment by Chris Wolstenholme(bassist) pretty much backs up what I mentioned in this post a few days back, about how manufactured today’s artistes have become thanks to amazing technological advances over the past decade.
I bet if they(researches) tried, they could one day decipher or a horse’s neigh, and then we’d have singing horses! okay lame, much -.-
THIRD, now it’s time for changing, & cleansing everything.
ciaozers.
