ReplyDeleteOr "The Devil's Right Hand." Those two songs right there, if I never hear them again, I will die happy.
DeleteI don't really agree with this one: "If you go to a concert to socialize and drink rather than to listen to music." A lot of the point of music is to bring people together, help them bond, et cetera. Sometimes the fact that a song is popular or one that your friends like or can relate to may actually be more important than the content of the song, the musicianship, et cetera.
ReplyDeleteI get it: Some people say they like the music for its own sake. And I don't blame them. But for many people, a lot of music's value really isn't about the music itself. And I don't think that makes them suck as music fans.
You suck when you're talking and socializing fucks it up for someone else who paid their hard earned money to come enjoy the music....PERIOD.
DeleteI'm really impressed with the time you took to make that post the best it could be.
DeleteI disagree with above commenter. And the music fans at shows want you to pipe down so they can listen
