Fans today are lazy too. Content to download in ignorance rather than get out and form views on live bands for themselves.

Try it. It is so rewarding.
So you want bands that don't get out and perform live to do so. It will suck and nobody wants to see sucky live performances.

Live performances/concerts are NOT the end all be all of the music experience. I'm one of those "lazy" fans that prefer to hear quality studio sound than shitty raw sounding live performance.

Yes I do, and no it wouldn't.

You clearly don't have the vibrant music we have in the UK.

It wouldn't matter if I was in the UK or anywhere else in the world. I still wouldn't go to see live performances regardless of how "vibrant" you feel your scene is.

Thats a shame. Musically speaking your life is therefore like only eating the vegetables and not also the meat or fish.

Each to his or her own of course, but its much more credible to comment upon something (ie. music) when one has a comprehensive understanding and experience of it.
