Hear, hear! In a similar vein, Holst's "The Planets" was impressive from a sheer musical perspective, but Bach, Beethoven and Mozart are actually wonderful to listen to."Thought he, it is a wicked world in all meridians; I'll die a pagan."

Going to a well respected orchestral venue is much like attending a church service, the *listening* aspect being front and center.
On the other hand there's a participatory aspect to groups such as Angine de Poitrine that invites the crowd to join in on the vibe that adds just that much more to the show. I'll never forget the farewell show of some friends of mine who had a rather influential surf punk act in Detroit, it's as if the entire venue was tuned in to each other that night.
You can't hardly describe it to someone who hasn't experienced it. My daughter, who was a student at a prominent arts academy and accomplished musician in her own right experienced it that might for the first time, quite magical!Last edited by LAB3; 04-02-2026, 10:30 AM.2001 Kawasaki Voyager XII (Current bike)

I will agree that live experiences definitely help you connect with the artist. I can't really stand any "Van Hagar" music, but when I saw Sammy and the Wabos live... that guy can really rock and I had a new respect for his music.- David

I listen to a lot of classic too. Although, when I want to really sit back and closee my eyes, it's Stephen Wake. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oepwEOZvYcUKomorebi-The light filtering through the trees.

I'll stick to having fun again.
Fluffy Arabian Cat Disease, it's only two minutes which is good since I'd hate to induce an Argonne Energy overexposure

Even the New York Times is getting in on the fun! My only regret is that Diogenes isn't alive to hear this.

Thanks for nothing, Lab.
Here's the entire KEXP presentation, about 27 minutes long. There's a number on there called Sherpa which really highlights the Microtonal aspect, has a very Sitar type feel to it.

Been stuck in two lengthy rabbit holes since i watched this.2@ \'78 GS1000Comment

"too much is ALWAYS better than not enough..."
Hmm...almost sounds like a Grateful Dead lyric.
And I think that we can all agree that these are MUCH better than The Beatles.

People say this sounds like something you'd hear at a Polish wedding but I don't remember my great grandmother having anything that sounded like this in her record collection, just typical polka stuff. Sounds more like something your folks might have been listening to, I'll let you be the judge.
