I really would like things to go back to artists actually writing, and performing their own music without crazy productions, 100000000 backup dancers, and lip syncing.

This is how I feel about things... and I'm a musician.

Totally the right answer! And when I go see a concert, I'm going to see someone play, not to see a fancy stage show! I want to see a band live - period!

That reminds me - i think Delerium is going to be in Seattle soon. Anyone here a Delerium fan?
