Analysis Of Rocky Rock Band And Reason Concert
On March 16th I attend the Rocky Rock Band and Reason concert at Losekamp at Rocky Mountain College. I had a rollercoaster of a night listening to the tunes of The Rocky Rock Band and Reason. The crowd was slightly small, but very enthusiastic. The setting had a very cool feel with the awesome lighting and they stage was set up very well. One other very wonderful aspect of the night was the free food that was a very nice touch. I was not too sure about how the concert was going to go. I have never heard a rock band nor have I heard a rapper in person. I was actually slightly excited to be able to see one in person.
Reason began the concert with a very unusual sound. The rapper was very loud and extremely explicit. I was not much of a fan of Reason the rapper, although he was not an exceptional rapper. His music did possess a story telling feeling, but his lyrics were very hard to pinpoint with his untidy vocals. Reason was rapping over his track from a online streaming service. This was very unpleasing due to the lag in the actual vocal, but in fact it was helpful to him in the areas he needed to catch his breath. The large issue that occurred

I really was impressed by the talent that both group showcased even though I am not a big rap fan. The concert was very well put together and made for a very time well spent night. I actually left wanting to hear more from the Rocky Rock Band especially from the last onsomble. One other very surprising fact was the low turnout. The concert was not very well advertised by the college but it actually made the concert more enjoyable. I did not have to sit by anyone I did not know and I got to listen to some pretty awesome music. I am really looking forward to the next concert. I also feel that I need to end with the male vocalist in the Rocky Rock Band has some true potential and I look forward to hearing

    Kid Cudi Concert Review

    Cudi began to talk to us from backstage, telling us his rules about the concert: no fighting, no throwing things on stage, etc. Although this ruined the mood a bit, everyone was still waiting for something amazing to happen. Cudi occasionally had to remind the audience of the rules, his fans nevertheless adored him when he eventually asked "Who smokes weed?" The answer, apparently, was everybody, at least judging by the shouts of approval and thick ribbons of smoke racing on the breeze.…

    The proposition ‘The Altamont Festival was a complete failure in comparison to the Woodstock Festival’ is accurate to a high extent. Although both festivals were similar in nature, intentions and time frame (both occurring in 1969), the two demonstrate a contrast, and are often compared on the overall success, the Woodstock Festival named one of ‘The Top 50 Moments That Changed Rock and Roll’ by The Rolling Stone, and the Altamont Festival described as “a funeral of sorts” (D Talbot, 2012). The Altamont Festival was a free concert organised by the Rolling Stones, after receiving claims that their American Tour was overly expensive, and they were using it to profit immensely. It took place after The Woodstock Festival, which occurred at a dairy farm in Bethel, a small town close to New York. Woodstock was originally not a free concert, had an expected duration of two days and only catered for up to 100,000 people. In the end, Woodstock’s fences were removed, it was deemed a free concert which lasted three days, attracting over 500,000 people. Altamont took place just off of a speedway in Northern California. Approximately 300,000 people attended the concert, and caused a lot of havoc for the surrounding residents, the performers, other attendees and the security. Altamont is commonly known for the death of Meredith Hunter, the Hells Angels security who were heavily under the influence of alcohol and drugs at the time, and the unruly crowd who were extreme in their actions, supposedly due to a bad batch of LSD.…

    Hoodie Allen Review

    The show was an amazing experience and the songs he performed were executed with great energy. It started when new up and coming artist named Sooshe opened up for him to get the crowd going with his personal DJ and techno vibe, but everyone was just anticipating Hoodie take the stage. Overall Sooshe did a great job getting everyone warmed up and even had the whole crowd chant “Hoodie, Hoodie” before he left the stage. Soon after the lights dimmed and Hoodie’s live band started playing one of his hit songs, “The Chase is On.” The whole crowd went crazy, escalating louder and louder as Hoodie emerged from backstage. Getting everyone to…

    Although I am beginning to appreciate classical music more, I personally enjoy music with words more than music without words. When songs have words I pay more attention trying to figure what the storyline is behind the song. I am very into music all genres such as, pop, country, rock, reggae, and so on. I am open to listening to anything new, which is why I enjoy going to different music events such as this block party. Overall, I enjoyed this performance very much and I am glad I got to see such a great band perform for free, thanks to Utica College. I wish I could have listened to more but I am glad I got to hear a few musical selections before the event was…

    Rave Review

    The night was perfect and the crowd was friendly with a diverse group of all ages old and young. Crowds of people filled the parking lot with sounds of Kid Rock blasting through car speakers and people enjoying their pre-show cocktails. Outside the venue Kid's cars were roped off for fans to check out and take photos. Entering DTE you could smell the aroma of Clarkston's own Union Station Restaurants famous mac and cheese and the Woodshop Resaurants barbeque. As we made our way toward the concert area the local Shriner's were selling Kid Rock/Shriners t-shirts with the proceeds going the organization. I really thought it was great that Kid was utilizing local buisness owners and charities during these hometown shows as well as the low dough show he was offering!…

    In addition, the festival pertained of people bringing in their classic cars to see which car was the best. What shocked me was that men worked months in order to prepare their cars for this festival. They had trophies for the best classic car contest up to 20th place so one can just imagine how many cars surrounded the festival. Also I had the opportunity to listen to live rock n roll music all day. There were different rock n roll bands alternating all day to get to hear a variety of rock n roll music. What I enjoyed most about the music was the fact that some members of the bands were playing unknown instruments to me that introduced me to new sounds and melodies. The bands were even selling their albums to the crowd in order to fundraise for the scholarship.…

    The concert was somewhat as I expected to be. The concert was so formal and organized. . Even though I had some prejudgments about the concert at first, I enjoyed listening to these pieces live. I will try to attend future classical music concerts. There were some parts where the management team could have done better. The artist demonstrated dynamics, technique, harmony and togetherness beautifully. Before leaving the concert hall I was able to speak briefly with some of the musicians, they were very helpful in answering my questions about the…

    On February 19, 2015, Jared Blum at the Sacramento State University had his first concert of the spring semester featuring plenty of special guests. This concert was presented as partial fulfillment of the requirements that he needs for his Bachelor of Music degree in Jazz Studies. Jared Blum, with his special guests (Megan Spurlock on the clarinet, Morgan Childres on the trombone, the Jazz Combo, the Jazz Essemble, and other special guests), collectively performed nine pieces along with a medley that compromised of three songs at the concert. Prior to taking this course, one of the first questions that I asked myself was “what do I know about jazz?” I have always consociated jazz music with the African American culture, mainly because of the general idea of how jazz music can give off a “bluesy” rhythm. Little did I know how diverse jazz music can be. “Creole Belles”, “Creep”, and the medley that compromised of “When you’re smiling”, “Swing that music”, and “Shiek of Araby” are the pieces that allowed the audience, including myself, to experience the diversity of jazz music.…

    I had departed early on Thursday for my descent back to the cold chilly city of Pittsburgh. During the day, my friend who attends Duquesne University in downtown invited me to a night on the town with her and her friends to go to the 3Lau concert at Club Diesel. Usually the club is over 21 on every night, but Thursday’s are different you only have to be 18 years of age or older. Whenever she announced that 3Lau would be performing there, I became too enthusiastic and eager. I had witnessed them once before and they were remarkable, so I immediately agreed to go with them.…

    Bands of America was very cool this year! The bus ride went very well, only problem being that every bump hit would rewind the movie that was playing. Once we got there everything went very smoothly. I got to help the band moms put the hat boxes in order! Warm ups there were a lot of jitters in the air it seemed, but not bad ones. Waiting to get on the field was extremely nerve wracking. But, once we got on the field everything seemed nice and mellow, like we were back on the field at home, it just had a different crowd and background. I feel really good about the performance. We did the best we could do and our best got us third in our class! Heading to the hotel and getting to lay down and rest was very nice and much needed. The food was…

    Seeing them in concert was amazing, because of their passion for what they do. You could see that they knew their music made an impact, and that drove them. How their music changes people’s lives leaves me in awe. The music doesn’t just change lives it has saved them. There is no better example than the man who saved his own life after hearing “I’m Moving On”. Or even the experience they gave a women…

    I enjoy and listen to variety of music from classical music to rap music. I have attended many concerts, mostly symphony bands concerts. I have attended many of my sisters’ honor band concerts. However, interestingly, through whole my life, I have never experienced jazz music and I have never been to jazz concert. This was my first time attending a Jazz concert. Therefore, I didn’t know what kind of music to expect or any music that I was familiar to. This concert was a new experience for me. It was far different from a Hip Hop concert held in some big venue. The purpose of this concert was to show the talent of the future musicians in the art community of Lone Star College: North Harris Campus. Therefore, it was hard for me to decide which jazz concerts would give me most pleasure and exciting experience. I researched for jazz concerts listing and I decided to go to the concert they had at North Harris in April 27, 2015. One of the reason I went to this concert was, that it was in campus, it was free, and my Music Appreciation teacher mention it in class.…

    In this paper I will be looking at the following things Pink Floyd “Dark Side of the Moon” album and The Clash’s album “London Calling” I will be analyzing their meanings, tone, purpose and what they have to do as with and how they tie into critical/cultural studies. The music from the album dives into the darker side of humanity. The Dark Side of the Moon 's lyrical themes include conflict, greed, the passage of time, death, and insanity, the latter inspired in part by Syd Barrett 's deteriorating…
