I think that stuff like rotating pianos and people burning/smashing instruments on stage can be a good thing, but at the same time it's moving the focus from music to performance art ... I'm in all this for the music. So, for me it's 80% bad and 20% good (Yes and No). BTW: I don't like people complaining about bands like Enchant or Shadow Gallery, saying that they're boring and repetitive, and every album sounds the same. These bands focus on the music itself (which is: melody and rhythm), not cheap tricks to boost popularity. ------------- https://awesomeprog.com/users/Mike" rel="nofollow">Recently listened to:

A good thing - not essential, but generally it makes for a more interesting show. ------------- 'Like so many of you I've got my doubts about how much to contribute to the already rich among us...' Robert Wyatt, Gloria Gloom |
