I just had a very depressing experience watching a "live" performance that was more of a recording than anything live. The really depressing part was that the musicians on the stage were probably skilled. But the constant emergence of prerecorded backing tracks made it difficult to tell if they actualy were good or just lip sincing!

I am a life long musician and this "what the hell is lip sinced" question convinced me that this was worse than disco! I mean... at least disco made no pretense of being live. You knew coming in, that what you would get is a guy with a record player.

Oh well I guess computers have stolen our privacy, our democracy, and now our music. Who need a live musician when you can just buy a machine. welcome to the future?!!! What is next buttontricks.com with toutorials like "pushing 2 buttons at the same time"?!
