RE: Disappointed in Hollywood - - to each his own, i suppose: addendum



Title: RE: Disappointed in Hollywood - - to each his own, i suppose
an addendum:
 
so . . . some further thoughts about this:
 
1. how much looping has to be in a performance before it can qualify as being advertised on this list? for about a 30-minute performance, i had loops going for maybe 7-8 minutes - - very approximate time here. the tape guy was 30+ minutes of all looping, yet was deemed boring . . . is MUSIC the goal or LOOPING? how about one in service of the other? is there some delineated way in which one needs to use the tools before it is deemed looping?
 
2. if i pay to see you play, do i need to agree with what you're doing before i feel that you haved deserved to get my "hard-earned" money? perhaps if one is so cash-strapped, one shouldn't go out. do you feel ripped off if you go to see a movie (now about $8-10) and don't like it? how about renting a video? how about any performance or documentation of one (cd, etc.)? are you applying the same criteria? just because you didn't like it doesn't necessarily mean that you are ripped off.
