If you go to a live concert ...

If you go to a live concert and pay big $, do you expect the singer to actually sing not mime?

Brittney Spears has been here in Australia for the last few weeks doing her Circus tour, she mimes/lip synced all but one or two songs and many people are walking out.

What's your opinion?

I'm with you Deb I'd feel slighted, from what I hear there have been quite a few people walking out of concerts, they reckon that they get more animation out of a Barbie Doll.
The press have been having a field day.

DS1 went to the Pearl Jam concert here last night as an early christmas present from his boss.
Had a fantastic time, mixed songs of old and new and a few interesting melded songs.
This was his first concert and if the price is in his range (always the problem) he'll be off to another

I would be very upset, and would probably leave asking for a refund. When you pay to see a concert, you are paying to see them live. If the performer is not up to singing live, then the concert should be cancelled. Pretty sad, lip synching at your own performance.

If I pay a lot of money for a concert ticket, I definitely expect the singer or band to actually sing!!! I would be really angry if it was all lip synced. Honestly, I could just listen to a cd if that was what it was going to be and save the money.
