In my younger days I roadied for a couple of local bands, flew the PA etc, and well do I know that a singer can be a bit flat. Or a guitarist hit the wrong note/miss notes, but at the end of the gig, if its been a good set then the punters will forgive the band.
But if a bunch of good looking but tallentless waster only mime onstage, I wont be going to see them or buy their tackie pap.

there was a thread on here a bit ago that mentioned something like this in passing, i am too lazy to search it out but im sure someone else will. it involved nirvana miming instruments on totp but singing live because they were supposed to... i dunno, i forget...
...anyway, since totp got that "revamp" wasn't everyone supposed to have to sing live on it?
i only watch live music as well, it kinda comes with the genre i listen to....
