Wow. Your lucky. I just saw a live performance of "these dreams" on TV with an orchestra - it was great :D

David 04-07-2006 08:41 PM

the one & only time I saw Heart (in Santa Barbara at I think the State Theater) they opened with I think Barracuda & they sang that "Should I drive my car?" song, which I thought was "Should I drive my car?" so that's what I called it, but my dormmate Jon said, "No, I think it's Should I drop my guard"

But I have trouble remembering that unless I concentrate specifically on it.

Anyway, I thought they were really bland in concert, really faceless. Musically, they were no different from Loverboy or any number of other bland corporate rockers. El Rayo-X opened that show that night, & they were everything that Heart wasn't: quirky, joyous, committed, edgy, funky, chancy. Although I must say that Ann & nancy themselves are or were visually goddesses who ruled the airwaves & the concert stages for a time. But one didn't get the sense from them that there was any genuine heart in the commitment to songwriting or even performing. It was just a bunch of smooth professionals earning a very good living.

to this day, I still remember what Robert Hilburn of the L.A. Times said of them: something like "never has a band been more inaptly named"

whenever a Stevie fan says she loves Heart, I immediately know I wouldn't make a good sounding board for that person, or give that person much pleasure in conversation. Our ways of life are too different, our backgrounds are incompatible....so farewell, my friend, & let there be no hard feelings.....

:lol: Our wise old friend David is dead wrong about Heart. The show is amazing. I saw them 2 years ago and my jaw was on the floor. David, I don't know when you saw them, but I think they've found that connection with their souls that it sounds was lacking when you saw them. Just Ann busting out that flute had me in awe.

Mike Inez? He was in Alice in Chains, I think that explains it all :laugh:

I probably saw them at least once during every tour in the 70's and early 80's including front row at the San Diego Sports Arena. I skipped their big hair shows :lol: but that was more because I was paying off college loans and needed to eat. They still rock. Ann's voice is pure rock and roll. Hope you have a great time!

Sometimes you are just such a ****ing 'tard.

If you can't feel it, then fine. "Visually goddesses"??? Never mind. You'll never get it. Quoting Robert Hilburn of all people? How banal... that old claptrap wouldn't know music if it blared his ear off.
