You caught me! Of course they will have recorded clips of Freddie and for Bo Rhap. To me, they do so for a different reason than pop acts do. You are also correct that Mick Jagger IS singing. Paul McCartney IS singing. Those are two "legacy" examples, however, where they make extensive use of other (live) voices to fill in the sound and sing melody lines and notes that Mick and Paul are having difficulty singing strongly (or at all) these days. It would be very remarkable if, at 72 years old, those guys still COULD sing as strongly as 40 years ago. Perhaps it is just me. I prize hearing musicians and singers without "enhancements." While I strongly defend the right of performers to continue performing even when they are not 25 years old and in perfect shape, I, despite being a life-long fan of Sir Paul, am not interested in hearing/seeing him in concert these days, for example. I am probably a snob about live performance. Sorry. ( And, yes, I would much prefer to see Adam sans backing tracks, too. If he cannot recreate the studio sound live due to a lack of $$ for backing musicians and singers, I would prefer he rearrange the song to fit what he CAN create live. I would prefer just keyboards and his voice to lots of backing tracks.)IMO, YMMV, etc. I do not think Paul McCartney uses augmented vocals with prerecorded vocals in concerts. Paul f'ed it up for the 2012 Olympics and talked later about not have done it since the early days of TV shows like Top of the Pops require it. I do not know what Mick does now but he used to sing it all. ** Set aside the 70's novelty concerts. Very few artists do not really sing in concert. All of the Rock and Alt acts I have seen lately are real -- so are many of the R&B acts. MUSE, Arcade Fire, Lorde, Usher, Pink*, JayZ, Steven Tyler, etc. all are singing as far as I could not. Not enhanced. Absolutely the Country acts I've seen are singing. * NO LIP SYNCING is documented: nypost.com/2013/12/06/pink-soars-to-dizzying-heights-in-concert-tour-special/ It is a handful of high-profile pop artists and people playing big stadiums (OD) who are not singing or who are heavily augmented. Lady Gaga sings a lot of ArtPop but some was augmented and some was lipsynced but they were the dancing and flying parts. Katy Perry uses vocal augmentation for many songs but she is doing these huge numbers. Rhianna, Miley. *** The press love a lip sync miss. And many artist lip sync big TV performances to a prerecorded vocal track -- they are often forced to for live events like the SuperBowl. But I would love to know one major rock act with a singer under 50 who is lip syncing in concerts. I can think of any. (I have found anyone under 70 doing it.) I saw Sir Paul on his Out There Tour last summer. He sang for almost 3 hours. No backing tracks, no breaks. He was terrific. |

OT -
The province of Ontario where I live, has tonight elected a majority government for Kathleen Wynne, its first female Premier in history. She is also gay, married to her partner for nearly 10 years.

And soon, I hope, we won't see the descriptors because it will no longer matter to anyone which "group" one belongs to. |

think I am coming to Chicago for first show :0 trying to work it all out biggest hurdle was getting off work trying to decide between floor seats or section 100"s.......any advice? Just for interests sake, I looked for tickets on Ticketmaster just now - and could have got a second row Floor seat for Chicago ( sect 3 row 2) for $170 or so - forgotten exact amount but I was amazed at the small price....second try was a row 11 for $155 ish. These offered as 'best available' as I can't do ' buy off map' on my ipad. Have I missed something? Why available and why so cheap? |
