I haven't seen any dead bands. Am I doing something wrong?

Maybe, Live music died a horrible death during the pandemic but it’s still alive, gasping for breath!

If you could choose to see a gig who would you choose?

This bands albums were named in the top 10 Best of the decade (2000s) by a few music industry groups but virtually no-one in Australia has even heard of them.
If you could get MOFRO to play the Bridgetown Blues Festival, I'd be there in a heartbeat.
PS; put the headphones on, look out a window and drift away.
PPS; Wait for the build.

I get the feeling that the question was in regards to bands that use electricity to play their songs publicly.

Still working on my smooth criminal dance moves.

I stand outside the venue and listen to the band. Never have had to pay for a ticket.

Pick the Queenslander!

Lol, I think it was Bowie and jagger ?

“ dancing in the street “ ?

It was this song:

Guess where I was standing?

Where's the like button? Just do a "+1". The only dead bands about the place are those on the verge of breaking up.

Are you kidding me? Whilst those in lockdown had to settle for what was on tv, we regional Qlders got to go to live events.

Your standard go-to question should always be - "Am I doing something right?"

The whole experience of seeing a live band is intoxicating. Imagine a world where the music was virtual reality tv. Watch "Ready Player One" for more information about where I am going.

I started watching that movie once. It's a really bad children's show.

It is NOT designed for children. It is a clever teen movie.
