REVIEW - Eagles at Coop Live Arena Manchester Review - Were they miming?

- I went to see the Eagles at the brand new Coop Live Arena in Manchester in the UK. It was a fantastic gig supported by the Doobie Brothers. They was Tom Johnstone, Patrick Simmons, John McFee and Michael McDonald. The Eagles were Don Henley, Deacon Frey, Timothy B Schmit, Joe Walsh and Vince Gill.
This is my review!
Thanks for the shoutout TJ! \m/
Thanks for your video that started all this!! I've got the footage from Desperado from last Tuesday that matches up exactly with your original analysis if you wanted to do a follow up! Seems strange that Don gets cover versions removed but doesn't seem to be removing videos suggesting that he's miming.....I guess he would need to disprove it!!
Wow....the real man! Thanks ❤🎉
Well as one old singer watching another right in front of me on Tuesday 4th's concert I can say that Don, as well as everybody else, was singing all night. You could see his breathing, hear the rasps into the mic and yes, it wasn't 'perfect'. I picked up the odd slightly off note and saw how he snatched the odd extra breath, which he wouldn't have needed ten years ago and which comes to all older singers. Whatever others allege, I know what I saw in front of me.
You can fool yourself but Desperado was mimed.
I watched the Wings of Pegasus videos and saw the comparisons from many years apart. Not similar. Identical. As a singer, Phil held a tone, twice, which sounded the same. But he showed the pitch analysis proved the takes were unique. He compared four Don Henley “live performances” and they were identical by pitch analyser. That means all of those “live performances” were mimed.
Me, i don’t mind him doing it. I mind his deception.
I saw Fil's video too. Expert analysis. Too bad that there's no law stating that lip syncing must be revealed.
We were 5th row from front Thursday 7th. Agree. No miming. No trickery.
The proof is in.
They are miming.
Denial won't change anything.
@terryjacobsen268 That doesn’t make it untrue. There is no other explanation for multiple performances being identical. You are simply in denial.
Thanks for the great video. With Michael Jackson, in the 80s, on those record-breaking tours, the official broadcast videos have where, for sections of a small number of some songs, you definitely hear a recorded main vocal for parts of it, and then his mic cuts in for other parts of that song. Apart from that, he sang live all the way. I was at one of the late 80s shows and as a teenager then I can't recall whether the audience on site had a mix of live + prerecorded or not. The live sound of many bands is massaged before the video comes out, of course. Maybe one of the techs from those days can speak up. But for a show like his you might give some leeway in terms of the balance between high energy theatrics and the purity of any of the audio elements. But with our beloved Eagles so much of how we revere them is to do with their incredible harmonies and their authenticity as musicians. And all of these current discussions relate to live recordings of The Eagles sound, rather than massaged post-produced versions. I don't know how authentic it is if they're not being honest with the live audience, unless there is a basic misunderstanding that we're not getting as fans, and we'll adjust our views when corrected.
As an aside I toured with Tangerine Dream in early 80’s and their show was run on Revox reel to reel tape machines . So the tapes would roll and the individual musicians would improvise as and when .
Think Don was miming some or all of his stuff. Maybe not all but definitely some. No one else was, imo, other than Joe Walsh's high note in 'In the City'.
A privilege to be in the same piece of ground as this band for a few hours. 01/06/2024
I was there last night, 8th June, I thought it was a bit antiseptic, the Doobie Brothers were ace, the one song that made wonder about lip sync was One Of These Nights, it just seemed too perfect vocally, after all these years.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m a huge Eagles fan from back in the day. The other point, it was the same video backing thru out the night as their show at Murrayfield two years ago and same talks bits.
Saw The Boss 10 days ago and I know where I’ll spend my money next time. Namely, 25 July, Wembley!
Thanks for the review mate.
I was there loved it !
I attended 2 Manchester gigs (1st and 8th of June) and have videos from both they both sound similar to me but not exact as it may be different volume etc as I was sat in different seats each time but it would be interesting if someone would want to compare both using sound tech
VERY classy solo at the end of your video!
Enjoyed your song at the end. Put me in mind of Flight of the Conchords.
Lip syncing £300 ticket daylight robbery
Great song
And how would you know.
i LIKE your style TJ
AFTER A ANASTACIA CONCERT BACK IN 05 I WAS TOLD AN ARTIST ONLY HAS TO SING 17% OF THEIR SET ACTUALLY "LIVE" TO BE ABLE TO CALL THE WHOLE CONCERT LIVE . WHY IS EVERYONE SO SURPRISED ? AS LONG AS ITS THE REAL ARTIST WHATS THE PROB ?
Why are you SHOUTING?
Great job
Best to see
The Illegal Eagles
Excellent live performance
@andrewholden5575. You may already know this. Keith Atack - father of Emily, was at one time a member of The Illegal Eagles. And check out another Eagles tribute band called Talon. I believe that they have a multi- instrumentalist who plays pedal steel guitar. So those early tunes where Bernie Leadon and Don Felder played PSG may be in the Talon repertoire. Stay safe and well.
Your song, brilliant
Backing tracks are not in all or nothing endeavor. They can be using backing tracks just to hit the hard parts but sing the rest that is easy for them to help the authenticity of the performance. Anyone going to a concert in 2024 and think they aren’t hearing backing tracks, at least for some instruments and perhaps vocals, is fooling themselves.
You are absolutely right. But for many of us we would prefer to hear a less polished live version. I think that if bands use backing tracks there should be some kind of notification that they do, rather than deceiving the audience. I am a giging musician and there are local bands that use backing tracks. I could not look at myself in the mirror if my band used backing tracks. I would be ashamed. I nearly had a fight with another guitarist at a gig, because after following them I said on the mic "If we don’t sound quite as polished as the other group , it’s because we don’t use backing tracks like the band before us. We are real musicians…." Most concerning thing was that half the audience didn’t realise that there were two guitars in the mix and only one guitarist….So I don’t know if you are defending the use of backing tracks. Perhaps I’m just getting old . But I think that it is typical of the modern fake world in which we live. Integrity , honesty and effort, mean nothing
No not at all, that is defending an act being fraudulent, compounded by excoriating price gauging
All this begs the question. How would these singers/songwriters have ever known that they would still be performing their works in the sixth, seventh or even eighth (Mr. McCartney) decade of their lives? Hats off to the musicians who had the foresight to write their songs so that they could perform them into their dotage! Check out Steve Miller - an octogenarian - singing and playing “The Joker” with John Mayer from just last year. One song is different to a whole concert but Steve still managed.
@@johnycat7373Agree. No integrity anymore. Pitch correction and Autotune are the industry standards now. I'm glad I have my old recordings.
it seems to me that they mimed. Just because they drop the key doesn't mean they are not miming, because he would have pre-recorded that version at a time (relatively recently) when he would be unable to sing it in the original key anyway. Also the fact that it doesn't sound perfect also doesn't mean it is not mimed. If a voice has deteriorated that would have also been apparent in the pre-recorded version for this tour. It feels to me like you really want to believe they sang live!
I bought a ticket but didn't go because Steely Dan cancelled. I didn't want to spend £200 on train fare and overnight accommodation for something that would be a disappointment. I'm not entitled to a refund because Steely Dan were the support. I'm sure that many people, like me, prefer Steely Dan to the Eagles and it's probably also true for the Doobie Brothers. It seems that they are allowed to advertise that a well known band are the support but you're not meant to buy a ticket on that basis. So why mention the support at all?
Hardly anyone prefers Steely Dan to the Eagles. Ridiculous comment. The sales of albums etc prove it's nonsense. More fool you for buying a ticket for a support act who are frequently changed and are mainly irrelevant to people going to the concert
@@nickbishop48 I find it hard to believe that an adult posted this comment.
The Doobie Bros and The Eagles were fabulous, you missed a great show. You also could have easily sold your ticket.
@@Nikki-oz7nd I put it up for sale but it didn't sell.
@jf3767 I've bought and sold on stubhub it is good.
go watch the illegal eagles...stunning....and I've seen the Eagles live for years...before Felder was gone...great guitar playing at end of ya vid BTW👏👏👏
I was there on the 8th. Of course it was live. I was close to the stage and could see Henley singing - there is absolutely no way it was pre-recorded. None of your jealous conspiracy theories will convince me. Sorry. I bet you all think the world is flat!!! 😂
You really don't have to believe it if you don't want to. Lots of people like to pretend. The truth is still the truth. Watch the Wings of Pegasus video about Don Henley singing Desperado to tracks if you think you can handle seeing the truth. It is undeniable.... but you are still free to deny it.
I’m just telling you what I saw with my own eyes. I’m not denying anything. I was there. 🙏
Toms medley at the end 🤔 think he was miming😂
😂😂😂😂
Never liked him !
What UTTERL SILLY speculation - just to get monetised views!
Get a proper job!!!
UTTERLY
It’s not ‘speculation’. The proof is on various UA-cam channels. It seems conclusive.
If you’re going to monetise UA-cam views, exposing outright fraud committed by craven multimillionaires is a pretty unimpeachable way to do it.
Saw them tonight, without knowing any history to miming, I found this video by asking Google were the eagles miming? . I was thinking Don's singing the whole night was pitch perfect and impossibly effortless. Not one tired/strained breath. No close ups of Don. Naughty
*They got the clue!*
I watched the Desperado video from this night and he was live but...
I also watched two other videos from last spring and last winter and they were both mimed. So it looks as though the Eagles got the clue. Don sounded fine so I'm not sure what he was worried about. Glad he's back!
The very first Eagles tour in Summer 1972- Doobies were the opening act. How fitting they are back together.
Indeed it is. In the USA, over the years (make that decades) Doobs & Eagles played more gigs together. Prefer the more versatile and energetic Doobie Brothers who happen to have an unique catalogue of fantastic deep-cuts. As to the Eagles, in particular admire Don Henley who wrote half a dozen extraordinary quality songs.
I saw that line up too back in '72!
"There you have it gentleman, what more evidence do we need?". Case closed. Once upon a time there was a band call the Eagles.
I've saved quite a few ticket stubs from concerts, mainly in the 70's. I've also misplaced or lost many that I had.
I have two from Eagles concerts. The first was on March 30, 1977 at Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto. Jimmy Buffet opened for them. The price for a ticket was $ 9.50 tax included. The other one is from Sunday August 06, 1978 at CNE Stadium in Toronto. The price for that one was $ 12.50 tax included. The 70's was a great decade for music & concerts & maybe the best !
Same here. Glad I got to see several of the groups I like then. No real desire to go now.
Coop, Your song at the end is Freakin' brilliant! Way to stick it to the man!
😆🤘🏽✌
The support, no matter how big, will never get the same sound as the headline.
Nonsense. Obviously the Doobie’s engineer didn’t have the same chops as the Eagles guy.
I was there last night and DBS sound was excellent.
as someone who has opened, and headlined, i can verify this 100%. nonsense? not. you don't get the low end, or the volume, or the lights as the headliner. fact.
@@Bizzle65 Uh... That’s not the way it works. The opener/special guest/whatever rarely gets the use of the full audio rig. Show biz.
What a con. I don't understand people saying that it's ok. If I go to see a live band I expect them to be live especially if I've paid 300 quid.
Precisely. And this from “ Mr. Litigation “. A sham.
Since the beginning of the Digital Music age about 80% of touring Bands use stack tracks which are basically prerecorded parts that play along with the click track (time reference for the Drummer)
and could be vocal harmonies or,
Stringed instruments or anything that is needed.
I never saw Queen but, I always wondered how you got 5 part harmony out of 4 band members?
He's in denial .
Well the difference between original “Doobies” and “McDoobies” (my name for MCDonald Doobies) is the style.
“OrigDoobs” were rock in’ “McDoobs” more R&B style.
A bloke in his 70s can’t sing like a bloke in his 20s. Maybe he can’t sing much at all, like Dylan. People have to accept that.
Have a look at Wings of Pegasus review of Glastonbury. Interesting analysis which makes the point that they could well be singing over (or under) a backing track. Almost impossible to spot especially watching them live.
great review TJ. I was there on Tuesday night and I thought the whole Eagles performance an presentation was great. I was fully aware of this miming controversy but I just ignored it and enjoyed the show. One thing that I’m so glad you clarified was who was the unmentioned guitarist who was standing beside Joe throughout the show. I thought his playing and back up vocals was great. But the poor chap got no introduction on stage nor did he come on for the bows at the end. I tried to research him too, but found nothing about him. So thanks for advising us all that it was Stuart Smith. I’m not familiar with the guy but it’s been bothering me all week.
Final question. Given Don Henley’s army of lawyers and his close guardian of copyright, how are The Illegal Eagles allowed to perform. I too have frequently seen them and they really are a terrific band. But how do they get round this performing and copyright issue. Great video man and keep up the good work. 🙋♂️👏👏🎼
That guitar player is Steuart Smith, he's been with the Eagles since Felder got fired. He plays all the intricate little parts, he is great.
10:57 Yes, it's pronounced "fry." 😎
Like vocal fry? 😂
Went Saturday and Tuesday, I felt Desperado was mimed on Saturday, and in a lower key and mostly live on Tuesday
Oh, and forgot to say, witchy woman was awesome !
I didn't need to be there to know that they didn't change the song from Saturday to Tuesday during a "live" tour.
Both Glenn Frey and Don Henley are Tenors. Don Henley is more alto -Tenor wheras Glenn Frey ( my personal favourite) is straightforward Tenor. He cannot sing as high as Henley. I have been playing Teqia Sunrise and, singing it since the 70s and I prefer Glenn Frey on that and Take it Easy. Henley is known for his lust for money and it wouldn't surprise me whatever he did to get " bums on seats" and tcket money. I agree with you wholeheartedlt about Vince Gill, agreat musician and singer in his own right.
You are being too nice man. A friend of mine who left the show business after 25 years, and he was right in the top tier like Live Nation, Ticket Master, ..., he told me: "I left cause it has become more fake than the snake oil"
Major Tom get yourself a life it was brilliant & live!
If you look a 4 man pop band with just one leading vocal and people at they age 40 yes you are right it should be 100% live .
But when many vocals and many shows old people can't deliver good quality.
When you here second abd third voices and harmonies different lead vocals and people nering the age about 80 years and are true legends its acceptable.
@@sjaakbrand1188 No it isn't. Faking never is. If you can't sing or play any more, retire.
@harrynewiss4630 hmm he can sing but long touring ....
@@sjaakbrand1188 shorter tours then
Hotel California is definitely lip synced. The highest note, even in the lowered key, is an A, which is a full-step/tone higher than the highest note he would have to hit in Desperado if he really was singing it in the original key they’ve miraculously returned it to (and which we know is lip synced), and a major third lower than the highest note in Desperado in the easier key into which it was transposed a decade ago so that Henley could hit it, when he could still be bothered trying to. And yet he appears to hit that Hotel California note perfectly and effortlessly, while simultaneously playing drums, every night, at the age of 76.
We know he’s faking the easier task (“Desperado”). Common sense should tell us, therefore, he’s also faking the significantly harder task (“Hotel California”)
As for why they are playing “HC” a semi-tone lower than the original key, in contrast to “Desperado” which they’ve returned to its original key, I would surmise it’s because that note was too high for him to hit when they recorded the backing track that he’s miming to, even in the studio. Alternatively, it may be a legacy of a time on an earlier tour when he WAS really singing, and therefore needed it transposed, and the band got used to playing it that way.
I totally agree!
We were 5 rows from the front centre stage. No miming. Joe Walsh was struggling a bit in places but no miming or trickery...including a sudden cough. His guitar playing was unbelievably amazing.
£300! Serves you right, not many unaccompanied teenagers paying for their tickets then i’ll guess. I’m sure the locals admire it, it being another ugly black shed. Even people like the romans tried to make their arenas look nice, even if what was going on inside wasn’t.
Brilliant buddy.. Very entertaining.. Pleased you enjoyed the show and it does'nt really matter.. fab tune at the end and fab singing too
Thank you! I still enjoyed it and I'm glad I went!
Hey Tom, glad you enjoyed the Eagles Gig. Michael Mac and Vince Gill are true legends in my book. Good to meet you at the weekend 🤠👍🏼
It saddens me that Vince is a part of this scam.
Whilst I appreciate that is the last ever chance to say thanks and pay homage this tour is all about topping up their pensions
They are 80 year olds, what do you expect? Listen to the voices of your Grandparents. I am an old man and I won't pay to listen to bands from my youth, they have lost the energy and the originality.
Gill gets a lot of crap for joining Eagles but he’s a 22 time Grammy winner! He’s awesome!
They obviously had to go way deep into the virtuoso warehouse to replace the likes of Don Felder. W/o Felder I don't consider this band the Eagles, just like Jethro Tull ended when Anderson fired Martin Barre.
I was there same night (you caught us walking in, on your video) and had similar opinions. In the end I was there to enjoy myself and loved it. Expensive yes, uncomfortable seats but 1000% glad I went.
How funny that I caught you on video! Sorry about that! I'm really pleased I went too.
I don't know who any of you and that's not important. I do know none of you were appointed to judge anyone. If you consider their age and how many times they have sung these songs maybe you wouldn't be so judgmental and selfish.
Loved your piece and have subscribed. I think you called it right, not totally lip synched just certain songs. I too have been playing for a number of years it's obvious your musical knowledge is extensive, so just adds more credibility.
Finally. I wonder how many theatre audiences would be happy to watch a Shakespeare play performed by Dame Judy Dench and the rest of the cast lip synching the dialogue?
I get that you’re a huge Eagles fan, but it’s disingenuous to agree with Fil on the last video that it’s impossible to sing the same lines identically from one performance to the next, only to turn around and leave it vague and “up to the viewer” to decide when you discovered that Henley was without a doubt still miming Desperado (and presumably other songs). Remember Henley for what he once was, but don’t make excuses or be an apologist for what amounts to artistic dishonesty that’s been going on for years.
Brave guy, see also Rick Beato's commentary on Henley & Co's legal shenanigans
Brilliant! Well done
Thanks
Come ON man, this is reprehensible!! -> HOW LONG was your SAMPLE on Desperado?!?!?
Without this answer, (or without the SAME type of analysis done by Phil), this is WORTHLESS information and a WASTE of time!
-> UNsubscribed!
Kick ass Mashup.
You are an excellent musician and vocalist
You'll be on the air soon.
Unfortunately, it is no longer possible to trust that what you are seeing when paying to attend a live event is actually a live event. The majority of live bands today are using at least some backing tracks and auto-tune.... even at the local level. This is bad enough, but couple this with the fact that prices to attend these "mime" events have become astronomical and you have a scenario where trust is now shattered.
It might be acceptable if there was some sort of disclaimer provided BEFORE you purchase your ticket informing you that "portions of this program have been pre-recorded" but unfortunately, show producers are too dishonest to tell you that in advance.
Perhaps some enterprising attorneys reading this will take the initiative and sue these venues for fraudulent advertising.
Just a thought.
More fool you for paying £300 to see them; they are a 1970s band. Well past their sell-by date. Support young musicians and help keen the music scene alive. You could see ten new bands for that money.
To expect anyone over 50 to be able to sing like they did when they were 20 is foolish. Singing is a physical endeavour - using ligaments, muscles from head to diaphragm and needing expert co-ordination between all of the parts. We don't expect athletes to retain their muscle tone, ligament flexibility and strength, their control into their 40s, 50s 60s etc. So why do we expect singers to do the same? It's completely normal for the aging voice to become deeper - lose it's high notes (lack of flexibility in the vocal cords - ligaments), stamina, control, vibrato becomes a wobble etc. Anything different is akin to a miracle. I would be very surprised if anyone over 60 on that stage wasn't miming. So, what do we want? No gigs from our heroes because they're just too old to do what they used to - or would we rather let them use whatever help they can so that we can still witness them "live" on stage, stand in the same room as them and see them with our own eyes, doing as much as they can manage, and not worry too much about the whole lipsyncing thing?...
There are very, very few seniors who can still play an instrument, let alone sing. I feel we should give them some latitude and some love for all the pleasure they've given us with their music over the years. I'm glad you enjoyed the performance TJ!
PS. When you think about it, these are 50s 60s 70s who have come 5000 miles to share the music in person with their fans and followers. Anyone who's ever toured will know how grim and gruelling it is. Anyone who's ever done a long-haul flight will know how unpleasant and exhausting it is. It's a really wonderful and epic thing to have these classic American musicians make the effort to come all the way to Britain for their last concert...
Serious singers sound good through to 75
Paul McCartney sounds bad now but still tries to sing. Kudo
Love the song at the end :)
I recall seeing the Eagles on tv and when Don was doing lead vocal and playing drums, I noted his drumming seemed out of sync. My conclusion at the time was he was miming the drum part.
Apparently it’s difficult to play drums and sing because the rhythm pattern doesn’t always “align” to the phrasing of the verses. The only other drummer I can think of who could sing and play drums was Levon Helm (RIP) of The Band. But he usually sang his own compositions so could write the words/verses to fit what he was playing.
Or they could do what Robert Plant and others have done for decades: sing a different voice in certain parts of songs, such as a tenor or alto part. I don’t want to see a mimic of the studio version; I can listen to that at home. I like live stuff that sounds a little different in some cases because it’s authentic.
Saw the Eagles last night and it was a brilliant night 🎉❤
Who said in twenty years time who knows what the music industry will be in.I recall DH made that statement,was he dropping a hint at something? My illusion of the Eagles is quickly fading into the sunset.
The King of Waffle.
I went to the CO OP Arena in Manchester two nights in a row, sat in different seats and both of them close to the stage.
The Eagles sang Live.
This man can't make his mind up, one minute they are live, the next minute he suspects it may not be live.
Did he the record the concert with a mobile phone, not exactly professional.
I think this man has a gripe, he has had two strikes on UA-cam for copying other peoples work, sour grapes ???
No. Watch Wings of Pegasus video on UA-cam which proves lip syncing. It's hard to believe that your heroes cheat no matter what band that they are.
@@atreb56
I attended two live concerts.
You are watching UA-cam
End of conversation
Loved your song at the end, great job! I'm thinking about seeing them in October at the Sphere in Vegas...
My argument with people paying a fortune to see people like Taylor Swift. If you are singing more than the artist on stage something is wrong.
Sounds like the bad old days of giving the support band slightly sub-standard sound. Shame not to get the full-quality Mike McDonald's vocals.
Eagles music is boring so I don't care. Give me Fleetwood Mac any day.
The conclusion is that you have no conclusion.
If you want to see Henleys real ability to sing live look up The Last Resort in Hyde Park on here.
Yes, that was back in 2016. He sang The Last Resort well, and referred to the song as "The story of Western civilization in 6 minutes".
Yes they are.
I’ve seen the Eagles a few times and they never let the support act use the main PA
I was at Eagles in Arnhem three days ago. Row 2, directly in front of the stage. All live and great. It is really BS what you are telling here.
It was NOT all live. Very few live shows today are ALL live.
We went last night miming they were not!
What is wrong with certain kill joy types who actually hate success! Get a life whoever you are!!
I can tell from your guitar playing you do like Steely Dan( Larry Carlton )
I love it
"Miming" is Marcel Marceau. "Lip synching" is what we call it in the U.S.
And we call in Lip Syncing in England... synching? 😁
In England I think we speak “English”. In America you speak “nobody in the rest of the world cares” .
@@mickyfinn7969 Well said!
Longtime Vince Gill fan. Saw him last year at the Opry and he was amazing. I doubt any of the solo acts at the Opry are miming.
Just found your channel. Love it wanted to ask which ear plugs you use as I always find the music at gigs too loud.
Thank you. They're ACS -17dB. I got them in the UK via the Musician's Union hearing scheme!
Get back to fitting out narrowboats.
[The Narrowboat that James built]
Was it live or memorex...? .....😮.....great job.
lol that takes me back
Pronounced "FRY" not "FRAY"....
Fantastic band completely live 1 billion %.fuck off any person who says they weren't.
Tough isn't it to admit you have been fooled ? 😅
@@Blonde_SomnambulistAgree. Look at Wings of Pegasus video analysis of Henley's lip syncing.
You mention your earplugs that take things down without losing quality. Interesting. Can you specify what they are please?
Earplugs are dime a dozen these days. I've got Senner.
You're looking for likes!!!
FREY is pronounced FRY
Vince Gill is in the eagles? I'm not surprised, I just didn't know that. I clicked on this the moment I saw it because of Fil's miming video, very interesting. Good to see they weren't mining!
Isn't the point that the recorded vocals were sung by Henley, possibly on stage at a gig, then quite possibly touched up, and then repeatedly re-used on tour. I'm sure they "sounded live" because at one point they were. The question is - is a previous good performance being recycled
Yes, where is the miming.
For those unbothered by the miming, I have to wonder how MUCH miming is acceptable? Or is it the case that so long as you don't notice (i.e., WELL mimed), it's okay? Or, if you are just there to pay homage to your heroes, maybe the concert itself is irrelevant.
Well that takes care of it ! Henley's not the only one, Roger Waters, David Coverdale, Joe Eliott, Simon Le Bon, etc...the live videos look suspicious and they used to sound like crap live until the proper technology came along to somehow "mix" live+tapes and make it look reasonably "natural".
I saw Eagles farewell tour with Steely Dan in Boston last September. SD’s sound wasn’t good there either. By contrast Eagles’ sound was brilliant.
I don't see how you can relax and enjoy a show for which you've paid an absolute fortune if a) everyone around you is filming it and obscuring your view; and b) you yourself are constantly trying to work out whether there's any chicanery going on around syncing-ing and miming! Thanks for posting, but I'd never go to one of these arena shows now, no matter who was supposedly singing.
@14:55... what what what... tell me... "I wish I had'nt doen this" ... 😮❤
Oh boy oh Boy oh Boy... the anticipation... is killing... 😂 or 😢
