Don't they kinda suck live? Well, at least the singing part. Lee's voice....I don't know. :dunno: But yeah, they're kinda cool.
I saw them in 1990 and 1992 and they where great . Lee's voice was perfect except when he sang some very old songs like "The temples of Syrinx" from the album 2112 ( 1976 ) .
Sweet. But yeah, that was 10+ years ago. I've seen some recent concert videos, and his voice kinda made me cringe. But I guess it does depend on the song too. I wouldn't mind seeing them though.

knows petras secret: she farted.
1) I typed they were a great band. Not whether they were great in concert or not.then they were not great. if they were great, wouldnt you want to see them more than once?
and 2) I typed I have no interest in seeing any band in concert more then once.
If you are going to roll your eyes (I assume in mocking) about my posts; at least read them please.
I find the noise quality at concerts bad. And hanging around with a bunch of screaming/yelling idiot-acting people thrills me not at all either. I feel that way now and I felt it when I was 16.
The only reason I would go and see a band is to go and see a band - not to listen to them.
Having seen them, the purpose is over and there is no need to see them again.

what makes a band great is their ability to play live. not what some machine has dubbed over.
I am looking foward to seeing them folks thanks for the comments.
I agree 100%:2 cents:
I am not surprised you would think that way.
You are wrong - IMO.
Music is about art (at it's best). Performing is about egos and dollars (at it's average).

what im talking about has nothing to do with ego or money.
fucking awesome band! went to see them the last time they were over here. sadly can't make it this time
You typed:
'what makes a band great is their ability to play live.'
No offense, but that is ridiculous.
There have been a tremendous number of great bands/performers that either didn't play live much or did not do it well or just plain hated it.
Maybe all the bands you like have to play well live to be great. Not mine.
If they happen to be great live - fine. But it is a tiny part of the overall makeup of what makes up a great band/performer - IMO.

great performers that did not do it well? now that is ridiculous.
if a band cant play well live, then i cant call them a great band.
