Is it live or is it?


Every concert I ever went to had a sound system consisting of horn loaded PA systems. So what are we doing spending all this cash in pursuit of feeling as if we are there when the entire chain of equipment is so different at home versus in any venue...?

I thought the main reason people go to live rock concerts lately is to stand there and try to record them on their smart phones...The last few concerts I went to, I had a hard time seeing the performers on the stage, due to a sea of hundreds of people in front of me all holding their phones up in the air!
If you think rock concerts are bad, you should go to a classical concert. Its the closest you can get to dying without actually being dead. I guess the upside would be that its definitely not a social event. Its more like a mass funeral. I'd swear that half the people there were already wearing corpse paint.
zd542, your post reminds me, as if I'll ever forget, the experience of taking in Bach's Mass in B Minor with my wife and a friend and his wife that wanted to see a "classical concert". Bad choice! I had to contend with the kids and their giggling, it became too much and we had to leave before intermission. Our immediate neighbors were NOT amused, in their deathly silence.
