    No, it's perfect. It's the archetypical band whose live performances are bombastic and completely superfluous (therefore wasteful), in the dumbest, most unnecessary venue possible.

        I can't blame you, they've been irrelevant for almost 20 years now. Back when they were big, they were well known for putting up these hugely expensive, elaborate, high-concept live shows, that really pushed the limits of what people thought a concert could be.

        But now, they're creatively spent, and just use expensive gimmicks to justify the crazy prices their mostly Gen X audience can afford to pay for their shows.
