Bands - pretty boring?

restlessboy [Edit] [Delete] 11:09, 23 October '07

is anyone else just really fucking bored of watching bands?

Like you've been to so many gigs that seeing four guys get onstage with guitars and drums just fills you with dread.

How often do you see a band which actually excites you? Where you're not partly wondering what to do when it's all over? When to go to the bar or toilet?

I think it may be my complete lack of interest in musicianship that does it. I am not remotely excited by seeing somene who is 'a good guitarist' - unless they're jaw droppingly good like Jon Gomm or something - but even then he's got shit songs so there's no depth to the performance. So maybe the simple act of watching music played well has lost it's charm...

Have I killed music for myself by overindulging?

:(
