Also, the whole "style" aspect is annoying to me. If Perry's going to encourage audiences dress up, how about asking everyone to come dressed in the costume of their choice or something truly crazy and celebratory instead of some hipster sounding bullshit.
Yeah agreed with the "this shit is lame" aspect. I want to see a rock concert. It would be so much better if they played like a 20 song set and just focused on the music. There's no reason not to play more songs when you have such an impressive catalogue.
NIN shows, which are the best I've been to, use some screen graphics and what not, but it's mainly about the music. And since Trent focuses on that, he is able to pull out a 2+ hour set with 25-30 songs. That's a real good concert.
I know Jane's is old and what not and are not concerned about having such an extensive set. But they can certainly do more than they've done if they cut out concentrating on the bullshit like "audience interaction" and "swank" clothes.
And I know, as everyone has said, that this shit won't happen, but it's still nice to dream.
