The Live Fix community is made up of fans, writers, musicians, artists, venue owners, publishers, promoters, explorers, doers, thinkers, wonderers and experimenters just like you.
With each passing post, and comments from you, the Live Fix Community continues to grow.
Here’s how Live Fix readers have built the community so far with questions, comments and insights on the live concert experience.
Fan comment from Experiencing Grief, Joy and Community in Live Music
“It is the universal language that connects us all. Music has been used in virtually every sect and sub-sect since the beginning (Psalms). There is no better modality to connect with absolute strangers. It is those moments when you turn and look at someone who you will never see again (probably) acknowledge their dance with a smile and know exactly how they feel at that moment. The collective vibe is a spiritual experience.”
“…She plugged in and ripped the first chord. It was loud. A chill shot up from my heels to the back of my neck. The air was suddenly warm and you could feel the audience take one giant deep breath and slowly exhale – as if we’d been deprived of oxygen for the past 48 hours. I became overwhelmed with sadness, then the far away screams of thousands of innocent people got a little quieter. We were all happy to be together. And we were exhausted but ready to rock…”
Fan comment from I Was Wrong About Sasquatch Festival’s Dancing Guy
“I don’t think the event was staged at all. I’d seen the guy earlier throughout the festival and he was doing pretty much the same kind of dance “routine”. But what the videos don’t portray is that a lot of people had been approaching him everyday of the festival. I think a lot of people were doing it mockingly (”Look, I’m playing with the retard!”), but some were genuinely those type of people to join in and dance. I think what you see is the culmination of those latter type of people.”
Fan comment from Bon Iver’s Tattoo Reveals the Power of the Little Things
I have seen some of his other tattoos (by looking reeeeeaaally closely at the videos up on YouTube) and some of them seem to be like some sort of assurance to himself that he’ll move on from something bad. For example “That was then” and “I said remember this as how it should be”
I like that. It’s like the lyrics for Skinny Love that seems to be a speech to himself.
I also really like the fact that you can’t see any of his tattoos until he moves his arms. Makes the man even more cool.
