hogso Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 Anyone ever seen Rammstein live? They must be incredibly loud, as I'm sitting in my living room, 4 miles away from where they're playing, and I can hear the bass. ****. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some f******ers racking it in. I always thought it was not for profit?? All your years in the music business telling you this? Thought not You have no actual idea of what you're talking about do you? Go on, admit it for once. You have not got a clue 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They literally build a city bigger than Oxford for the festival. Do you think that they can do this without paying people? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both got some banging tunes, mind. Olivia Rodriguez "Brutal" would fit in any era since the 70s and Billie Eillish, you have to listen with a decent system/headphones - the bass is a massive part of it and it's almost inaudible on normal TV or radio or phone speakers. Put some good headies on and it's completely different and they both super-connected with the crowd, which is impressive for basically teenagers. The Billie Eilish set was utterly fantastic (imo). Yes as you said, need to listen to it through a good set of speakers though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PieFacE Posted June 26, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted June 26, 2022 (edited) Kendrick is putting on a good show. I usually don't think hip-hop translates very well live but his set has been excellent so far. Edited June 26, 2022 by PieFacE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just switched it on … and now off again as he’s “rapping” is he really wearing a crown of thorns like he supposed to be Jesus ?

Someone already has been friendly though and done it, an now I think about it yes I bet the ticketing cost is justified. Still expensive though.

Which is one day of administration and staffing costs (not five / six). To see five / six acts over the course of an afternoon, not hundreds.

Someone already has been friendly though and done it, an now I think about it yes I bet the ticketing cost is justified. Still expensive though. The first post you made claimed that someone was making millions and suggested that not all the profits were going to the nominated charities. That in itself says that YOU think you know best. There was nothing about the ticket cost being justified, that’s something you've just added. Answering a question with a question is avoiding the answer My years in the business were a long time ago but I still know the basics and your non-existent knowledge hasn't even added in the facility fees etc that the BBC will be paying nor the amount pulled in from the concessions but that’s bumping the income up to what you thought it was but the are huge costs that you can't even begin to imagine. That site was begun to be set up over 2 months ago by a huge gang of people. There are people employed all year round. They'll start planning it for next year in the next few weeks, each festival is a year long process. There’s also much much more than you ever see on the TV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
