Madness 👂

I went to see the band, Madness. It was at a big arena. They were good, and I enjoyed it, but I was left dissatisfied.

It was crazy loud. I had ear plugs, but the bass was shaking my chest even though we were near the back. From where we were sitting the band members were visible but tiny. Good thing we could see them on the many-screened backdrop. Someone had gone to a lot of effort to make visual effects for the backdrop, which was quite impressive but not what I was there for: it felt like well made visual filler. By about half way through I was thirsty, but to get out of the middle of the crowd and come back with a drink seemed like a lot of hard work.

Altogether I would have enjoyed it more if I'd been watching from home. Sadly.

Suggestion to music promoters: provide a live stream of concerts. I'd pay for that.
