Having seen two live concert shows on Rosebowl, a cable tv channel that shows music videos, many live concerts specials & other stuff, I appreciate artists or bands that play their instruments well, even more. The two concerts (which Rosebowl have been repeasting daily a bit too much) are Sarah McLachlan (off her last tour) and a huge one of Eric Clapton. I mean the people who were in the crowd for the Clapton show is huge - almost the same number of people live in Cochin :). And he rocked. He played his guitar as if there would be no tomorrow and he had a large number of musicians along with him. Two guitars, bass, drums, a horn section backup singers. It was grand.
The other one was as I mentioned Sarah McLachlan. Although she was backed by fewer people than Clapton, the sound of her band is excellent. She also has THE BEST VOICE of any singer male or female I have eever heard. No contest!! Her drummer who is also her husband is an Indo-Canadian from Vancouver (I think) called Aswin Sood. The played so well it was like a religious experience. And that is telling a lot, since I am an atheist. It makes me think what do people see in rappers, hip-hop (shit-hop), boybands (yuck) and such sickeing forms of music - and I use that term loosely. Here is my advice, get a life, get a ear for music and listen to these two artists. America has embraced rap, hip hop and other fucking nonsense, which is the only reason why this sort of music is popular. Oh and Jennifer Lopez is nothing but a fucking whore who will sell her tits for more money. Like she needs it. I hop she dies or loses her voice (and I use that term loosley).
There was a special on Shakira (her voice gets on my nerves) on channel V. I skipped it. If it wasn't for her hair she would not be so famous. Another whore slut!!!
