I love Tedeschi Trucks!! Great live band!!

The gig I was speaking of was a "small venue" performance. It was a local band and they are not the first I have had this deflating experience with.

While the big international stars of disco may have performed live, my experience at the local level was mostly a guy with a record player. I always thought that the disco lable refered to the records which replaced live performers. At least DJs didn't pretend to be musicians. That is the disco I was refering to.

I have alway thought that the height of Live Performace was an organic interplay between the band on stage, their musical skill, and the audience. That feedback loop always determined who was a great, not who had the biggest kereoke machine. That human symbiosis was critical from the local level to the international level. Developing that kind of skill took tallent and years of practice.... pushing buttons and turning knobs does not. That is called Recording. It is a diffrent thing, and it is definatly not live performing.
