loopers hard talk questions and answers

["L.Angulo" <labaloops@yahoo.com>]

with all the latest contraversy and loopers comparisons to bands id like 
to prepare to answer hard questions and quotes from audiences or non 
musicans who havent really understood and mistaken this artform with self 
indulgement,egocentrism,incompetence and the negative rap that looping is 
starting too get lately as it moves more into the mainstream.
Ths might sound provocative a bit but it could help us all to prepare 
audiences with better explanations and answer the questions in a more 
logical maner so when they walk out they still arent lost;-)
So ill start with a few on top of my head, please pitch into the bucket 
with more questions and off course answers!

1. Why loop when you can have a duo a trio or a band?is it due to 
economics?
2.do you really need all that equipment to play solo?ive seen solo players 
who can entertain us without all of that
3.nice but to my ears it sounds lifeless and monotonus
4.why would i pay to see somebody just making noise? my kid could do that
5.looping seems to me made for self indulged people that arent able to 
deal with other humans and are incompetent to play the instrument properly 
without all that equipment
6. nice but dont you think a Band is still better?
7.so whats the difference between sampling and looping and sequencing?
8.what so special about recording different instruments in front of us? a 
band is better because it has more energy and you can speed up ,slow down 
and bring dynamics together
9.nice but it sounds too perfect 
10.why do most loopers play alone?

cheers
