While I was daydreaming in the park yesterday (as I tend to do) I was thinking about the recent Hawkwind gig I went to. While some of the musical content was to be polite, slightly dull, the backdrop visuals kept the attention.
Wouldn't it be a great Sisters show with visuals on a big screen at the back of the stage? I'm assuming cost would stop it ever happening but it's nice to dream.
For example;
Crash & Burn: Speeded up footage of first person perspective of driving through Arizona interspersed with slow motion Second World War footage.
Ribbons: Vivid colours flashing (Red, blue, Purple) with iconic footage of the Russian revolution.
Flood I: A series of b & w doorways opening and closing with Apocolypse Now footage of the boat moving down the river.
Temple Of Love: Ankor Wat in negative, panaroma of surrounding area etc...
Summer: Slow motion sunset with intimidating fist coming at the camera.
Well, I think it would work anyway.

Maybe they could just show Anaconda, the movie with Ice Cube.

Wouldn't it be better if he concentrated on writing some more good songs with decent tunes rather than wasting his/our time on deflecting our attention to backdrop visuals during their slightly dull rehashes of some great songs.Hom_Corleone wrote:

We have new songs, we have old songs. The quality thereof is debatable but we have them.moses wrote:Wouldn't it be better if he concentrated on writing some more good songs with decent tunes rather than wasting his/our time on deflecting our attention to backdrop visuals during their slightly dull rehashes of some great songs.

I think anything to make the show memorable is a bonus. It worked for Dave Gilmour's so called Pink Floyd for years.

the biggest question is, who is going to see those vids trough all that smoke?
to me the thing about TSOM allways has been, nothing but the basics. drumcomputer, amphs and a place for the smoke machine, that is it. and that is how it should be.
how is gonna feed his cat if he has to pay for vids?

If they're gonna do that why not just have a video of some smoke for each song?Hom_Corleone wrote:Speak for yourself.christophe wrote: what we (they) have are old songs, older songs and songs that are written when you people stil ware young pups

If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.
