remember in the 80s when metal guitarists would play their guitar solos as if it was th hardest etude they had ever seen, making faces and straining to reach the notes and all that shit? all showmanship those fuckers could play every damn solo in their sleep. but the fans wanna see the metal gods work hard at their craft!
disingenious? maybe, but it is after all performance. all performance contains within itself superficiality and irrelevance. The great performers make it look spontaneous.

i went to see joe lally in dublin last friday night and i must say i thought the audience were one of the most non-receptive i've ever experienced. either they were too cool for school or just the biggest bunch of straight-edge lamos i've ever encountered. i had the audacity to break the silence in between some of the songs by saying something like "good stuff joe" to which he answered "it's not about who makes the music". i enjoyed the gig but the atmosphere was somewhat perplexing.

that sounds like the worst gig ever. I hate it when the crowd feigns indifference.
and what the FUCK does "It's not about who makes the music." mean? that shit sounds like some fucking bullshit that the singer siongwriter WUSS FUCKS in the late 70's would ahve said, Croce, Taylor, those boring fucking assholes.

Genuineness is the opposite of the rnr circus, music industry, show business, video clip etc.
So it means, "we wear jeans and t-shirts, we're normal, buy our records!": genuineness sucks. (but I've never read or heard a band saying: "we're genuine", even Fugazi) |

even Fugazi, as genuine as their fans claim them to be, were not truly straight edge. they had girfriends, children, drank, smoked cigs. . .
