c. Need I say it again - the emphasis on visual performance is far too "rock and roll" for my taste, even though I play along these days. Sick music is sick music and that should matter more than the theatrical aspect [cue Surgeon bent down over his Midi controller rocking $h!t proper].
im still a fan of deejaying as a method of dance music performance. ive seen some good live shows, dont get me wrong, but theres always something lacking. plus, no matter how interactive the software or hardware used is, its not possible to make drastic shifts like you can with records. you cant just go from having your music sound like a reggae band to having it sound like a disco band with a live performance unless youre using prerecorded stuff, which is obviously not live. but i agree, who cares what the performance looks like? rock star theatrics are wack, its one of the primary reasons i dont like rock music very much anymore. tom
