When I was growing up, we went to Musikfest every year, and I have vivid memories of the corn on the cob. I'm going for the concert, but I'm really going for the corn.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
For musicians, Musikfest is the most cool event.
I did a concert... in September with the Berlin Philharmonic... They're great musicians, and there's always something to learn from them.
New Year's Eve, we're going to be doing a concert with the Philadelphia Orchestra in Symphony Hall. It makes me feel good, because of all the people they could have had, they wanted me! We do have to do a little work with the rhythm section.
I probably went to musique concrete concerts - though not the very first ones - at the beginning of the 50s.
To fans in a festival setting it's like a picnic. You want to have a good time with your friends in that crowd. And in the background you hear the band play, 'Oh, that's my favorite song!' everyone is there to enjoy the afternoon and that's about it.
The really cool thing about festivals is that you're getting to play in front of a whole lot of people who have never heard of us before. That's exciting. At the same time, it's a little bit of a challenge to capture the attention of people who have already seen a lot of bands.
Now, I was the Summer Concert guy. I played every Summer concert there was.
Whenever I visit a city, I like to see what classical music concerts are on offer.
A concert is always like a feast day to me.
It's been three years since I last performed here so I'm dying to tear the roof off Wembley Arena with some old school joints and brand new bangers. When I'm done, you're gonna remember it for a long time to come.
