Matthew Herbert

If I’m remembering correctly, there were at least two other threads about this guy floating around last month...
The concert? Total garbage. Just a glorified DJ set... honestly, my feet were aching after only thirty minutes.

Is it just because you aren't really a fan of Matthew Herbert in general—and his whole experimental music vibe—or is there some other reason? 🙂
I mean, I’ve heard from so many people that he definitely belongs in that era of the Democratic Party...
But, honestly, I'm curious—what exactly was it that people didn't like about him?
Does that guy actually have any real arguments behind his take!?!

I gotta be honest, I haven't really delved deep into his whole discography—well, except for that one Big band, which actually blew me away, and honestly, that was the only reason I even bothered showing up to this show. But man, this whole thing? Total snooze fest. It was just a massive crowd of hyperactive, high, and completely burnt-out people who seemed way more interested in the fact that they were physically standing at an MH concert than actually listening to the music. That's pretty much the long and short of it. 👎

aaaaaaaah, okay. I see how it is... you're all about the crowd size, not actually about the music. 😠

hehehe, no worries!

Look, if it were actually worth anything, I wouldn't have cleared out after just thirty minutes. I went there—like I mentioned before—because I was genuinely interested in how he handled those massive big band arrangements. Sure, it wasn't a live set, so you can't really blame them for the lack of energy, but still... I wanted to give it a fair shot, but it just wasn't worth fighting through the crowd for something that mediocre...
