Electronic vs Rock music (live)
I'd rather see a rockband when I go to a concert. Some reasons are because I sometimes think that electronic artists just press the "play" button and wave their hand a couple of times. This isn't always the case though.

When you see a rockband you can see how much effort they put in a gig. They connect better with the public...for example by telling jokes. The people at a rock-gig are very differrent too. I went to a Bloc Party gig yesterday and i loved how the crowd sung along. You don't see that kinda of shit at an electronic-gig. They also go ape-shit for some bands...like at the Bloodhound Gang gig I went to recently, people got up on stage and also got kicked off..there was loads of crowd-surfing too(i can understand that some people hate this)...in my opinion this is fucking great!

I'm not saying that electronic gigs are crap, because i love them too. But i think rock-gigs are better in general.

For a night out you can;t beat a good dj-set of course.

What are your thoughts?
