Howdy everyone,
It's sunday, which means a new blog post! Today I am going to talk a little about two clips I have found on the internet. The famous performance of 'The Who' which included the incident with the explosives and the performance by Jimmi Hendrixs performing Wild Thing in Monterey in 1967. Both clips were quite 'different' for that time. Smashing guitars on the ground, setting guitars to fire and destroying amplifiers was all part of the job. Now some people think that this is extremely offensive but I actually think it is great. Both clips contain artists that are totally being one with their music. That they destroy a thing or two in their performance is just part of that. Besides that, they also try to get some attention from the public and this is a way in which they could do this. They did not harm anyone with this and succeeded in their goals so who is there to stop them. On stage we see artists that feel totally liberated and able to destroy anything without it haveing consequences. Anyways, people may think a lot of things about it but one thing is certain, these guys made a heck of a show!
See you next sunday!
