A near sold-out crowd dwindled to about 40-50 people by the fourth song. This is a pretty clear indication that a band is not putting on a good show. So, if The Clues want to play music for themselves... then they should fucking play in their own homes. good artists play for themselves is the stupidest thing i've ever heard... these people are 'entertainers' and they make their living that way... people pay good money to go see their music so, they should really consider entertaining their supporters.. and not themselves, else they'll find themselves with no one to support them.Tenacious Hand Stamphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03405332554584296565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3489144067148457379.post-10383945421635472612009-11-13T04:36:02.828-08:002009-11-13T04:36:02.828-08:00I've seen them quite a few times.

That's first. And second, if there's any distraction of any sort, or any negativity like hecklers,or just loud people in general, they're off their game and the show is going to be horrible; They require full attention from everyone. Music is a very selfish indulgence. But Art is what you pay for. <br /><br />Or is it? <br /><br />Oh, and "it is shame that they have to use the names of the Unicorns and Arcade Fire to sell themselves" made me literally laugh out loud. they never bring up these facts. it's people that write blogs about them that bring it up. people like you. so... no... they don't try to capitalize on that fact. at all.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3489144067148457379.post-55648754250035235082009-11-03T09:52:10.921-08:002009-11-03T09:52:10.921-08:00I just saw them yesterday and were really impresse...I just saw them yesterday and were really impressed by their performance. even more than i have been by the album which is one of my year's favorites.<br />finally, your argument "it is shame that they have to use the names of the Unicorns and Arcade Fire to sell themselves" is completely wronged! <br />They have signed up to Montreal's constellation records and this has limited the release of the album to a great extent. In Europe, you have to go to small local record stores if you want to purchase it... and there are no "with members of arcade fire" sticker on them to make people buy it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3489144067148457379.post-24343487329642754072009-08-18T22:08:33.763-07:002009-08-18T22:08:33.763-07:00hahaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
