LIVE ROCK CRITIC THIRTY FOUR SEPTEMBER 24 2012
How highly gratifying it is,
The hollow victory,
At the end it is right I am!
It all comes down, analysis,
The direction of the symphony,
And my lady, my man,
How well can you jam?
Stephen Colbert launched another Colbertphest, I should really know better than to watch but I do and I write. I started with Nas, my last blog has some footage of “fake” play of instruments , I thought that was worse than bad, but Nas has fans I am told.
Nautically themed Stephen C presented a new crop of lame performances by lacklustre performers. The “ Flaming Lips “ were so boring and so slow and did not jam. The opening interlude was endless directionless promise of something good to come and it did not.
The “ Grizzly Bears “ were not grizzley at all, not even bearable. Insipid with no passion, no life or energy they mouthed the words and plunked the chords as if it was not their idea to perform. Where does Colbert get these acts and why?
“ Santigold “ performed, weirdly costumed, the band did not jam, it seemed to follow a script. The whole of the performance was so not Rock, with Silly Stephen trilling and whooping that this is Rockfest.
I regularly tape and watch John Stewart and Stephen Colbert so I get the musical guests as a by-product. It is what is on my PVR. “ Pink “ coincidentally performed recently. Quite a bit more energy and rehearsal possibly too. The lead guitarist played his Les Paul adequately, but he did the weirdest open mouthed display of emotion or what?
Nobody flew away with the music or did any spectacular vocal, it could be that there is
a lack of that spontaneity which generates the fresh exciting music I am looking for.
My website is down, Go-Daddy deleted my material, I will find a new host soon. Most of my material is on you tube and Live Rock Critic is a t www .liverockcritic.blogspot.com.
