Yikes! I'd be glad to watch.....but, bring roadies.....I ain't haulin' that stuff around!

I forget who it was, but one of the guys here has something like 18 or more T60's. I wanna say he was out of Arizona. I'd enjoy that experience.

I wonder if 32 T60's would cover a space as large as Tomorrowland effectively. Just calculating them all as coupled, 32 of them (either the 2x12 or 1x15) should be able to throw 25Hz, 110dB at about 300 feet out. 32 T48's calculate out 35Hz, 110dB, to 800 feet. I'm thinking T48's would be better suited for an outdoor show like that. I can't imagine the setup they used was high passed any lower than T48's would be anyway. And, while yes it's EDM, the vast majority of mainstream EDM isn't playing anything a T48 wouldn't handle with ease anyway.

I prefer to listen to EDM through a single piezo.....easier to crush the whole thing with one blow of a hammer.

Note: the laugh is only at his reaction

Same...

Hahaha. You guys... Cracking me up.

I enjoy nearly everything that's not primarily religion based. Opera, orchestral, Big Band, Rock, Disco, Folk (contemporary and classic), Country, Rap, EDM, Reggae, Musicals, Celtic, Polynesian... even Jazz. Grungy, growly, rock? Yes. Senseless, whiney, screamo emo? Not so much.

Let's try an experiment.

Bruce, Bryan, and anyone else wanting to weigh in, what's your opinion of this song and genre?

I'd call that modern Celtic, or Celtic/Rock, and pretty well done.
Do I like it? Well, I didn't turn it off in the first 10 seconds, so yeah.

Having done shows with Celtic groups, both old and modern, the only problem with the genre is musically, it's much the same. One could argue that's like any genre, but Celtic is more about the dancing aspect than the music...

Yeah, I enjoyed that and echo Grant's statements. There was actually a melody line. Would I listen to it on a rotation? Probably not, but the video makes it a good piece of entertainment.

Lindsey Stirling, phenomenally talented violinist. I agree, the production values on her videos and quality of her recordings are top notch. The entertainment value is high.

Same artist. Is this song any more or less palatable? Same?

Reminds me of something from a Cirque Du Soleil show. Like the first one better. Feels like it's a whole lot of computer generated drums and a violin. Just not enough in the arrangements to keep me interested for an instrumental. Same reason I'm not a big Satriani or Steve Vai fan.....I get bored after a short while.

I like instrumentals like Edgar Winter's Frankenstein, Allman Bros Jessica, Hot Lanta, and In Memory of Elizabeth Reed. And Dickie Betts put out a solo album with Duane's Tune on it.....worth checking out. Also, in the later ABB iteration, they did Instrumental Illness on the Hittin' The Note album. Yeah, I'm an old ABB fan from way back.

Interesting, but I prefer Charlie Daniels.

+1

We used to do Caballo Diablo in my old band. I love me some harmony guitars....especially in 6/8.

I hear ya and I get it. I'm happy to hear no piezo elements were damaged in this experiment.

That was all bluster.....I'm too cheap to destroy a $2 piezo. I'd shoot a hole in the iPad of whoever plays it around me.
