I have watched a number of the concert broadcasts on PBS. I like to check out the lighting designs since I do that on a smaller scale. PBS and Axis have some high-quality video coverage of older bands. I grew up in the 70s and listened to a lot of rock. Today I don't like listening to that classic rock very much. I guess I listened so much that I wore it out. Not saying anything is wrong with it. :thumb: I guess one thing I see is how really simple the instrumentation was back then. Very basic guitar work for a lot of the bands. I know I am generalizing-don't flame me.
I was talking to a friend..who related that a Led Zeppelin cover band in our area gets $10K per show. I am sure they faithfully reproduce the music. I think I would find it difficult to pay top dollar for a seat to see other guys play the music.
I forget what channel but I caught a live KISS concert from the UK. I used to LOVE that band. Boy they are very basic musicians. I really did not like listening to it very much. The lighting, however, was top quality. But man was the music bad. I had to say it. Childhood bubble is now burst. My friends were right.:dunce:
