The music and everything we're doing on the stage and on television backs itself up. If that's what gets people's curiosity going or brings their attention to us, that's fine.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Being performers, that's what we do: We put on shows and want people to watch.
I understand our audience loves to see some drama on TV, but even they have got bored with similar patterns of carrying out reality singing shows.
The perception of the audience is the interesting part. If the audience doesn't hear what is going on, is it going on or not?
People are so familiar with the show that I think they're perfectly happy to let it go by without asking any questions. There's a passivity to how we experience 'The Sound of Music.'
If my musical tastes are continuing to grow up, and I am not really too interested in the music that my kids listen to, then I assume that the audience is doing the same.
I enjoy being on stage with other artists. I have a chance to watch and see people responding to the other artists songs. I get to see how people are affected by the music.
Most of the big money people don't know what would interest an audience if you did it. They only know what interested the audience last time.
The secret of doing well on TV is to understand that it's not too important. A lot of people watching doesn't change anything.
I guess I would definitely feel a bit of a void in what people are getting from music these days. And I think that the problem lies not so much on the listener. People kind of listen to what is presented to them, whether it be on the radio or at a local venue.
So no one should rely on television either for their knowledge of music or for news. There's just more going on. It's an adjunct to the written word, which I think is still the most important thing.
