**** him. I saw Springsteen on the Born in the USA tour at Slane and he killed it. But he's just one example. The fact is that as I said, the larger percentage of live acts WANT to interact with the audience and for them to interact with the band. Do you think Maiden would stop people clapping? Or Slayer? Or Zu? Zorn? This Heat? Robbie Williams? You-****ing-two?
Talk to most bands after/before a gig and they're buzzing, they're psyched, they're hyped up to give a great show. Waters is a prick, plain and simple, and Morrison is an dour, ignorant ****, but I hate his music anyway so that really means nothing coming from me.
