Leicester Saint Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Fine but that's not the point I'm making. If you read my post again I've said that I'm fine with music like that being sold. What I think is out of order is it being marketed as a live performance.No, I know the point you're making. But, again, if some people like it, is that not a good thing? I'm sure they're not really bothered.I don't like boy bands - a bunch of posing cunts lined up at the front of a stage singing. None of them playing any instruments, and the music is complete bollocks, in my opinion. But...millions of people love them! So, fair enough, I think. Music is, and should be, very subjective. People's likes and dislikes are their own business. And what people are happy to accept is up to them. There aren't 50,000 people watching Calvin Harris because they're in the queues for hamburgers or beer, and there's nowhere else to stand!

faraway saint Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Earth, Wind and Fire this afternoon... now we're talking music. Always puzzled me how they can make money when there is about 36 of them in the group? Great tunes right enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hambud Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Always puzzled me how they can make money when there is about 36 of them in the group? Great tunes right enough. some people just like making music rather than just doing it for the money. They probably think christ all 36 of us are getting our travel costs and entry to party at t in the park for performing a few tracks which we would enjoy doing in our back garden for free anyway, winner!

Isle Of Bute Saint Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 In the most part T In The Park looks very disappointing this year with too many acts past their peak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pozbaird Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 I'm not saying that the likes of Calvin Harris or Fatboy Slim are charlatans, or talentless chancers - far from it. I have some of their long playing records in my collection. I wouldn't cross the road to see them 'play live'. Just my opinion, and it's a subjective matter.

Leicester Saint Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Bastille, does anyone actually like that pish?Bastille are f**king shite, in my opinion. Touted as the next big thing, but they're just very, very ordinary, and very 'poppy'. Pish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leicester Saint Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Watching it now on BBC3 and the main thing that strikes me is this. How much lighter is it in Scotland at this time!?

It's been heavily voiced music is objective, so best leave someone's opinion as that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're all full of opinions, as long as we accept that others have them too, that's fine, no? xxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
