ytserush Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 I don't know why fans of older music constantly want to shoot that genre in the foot. Of course the hologram is not the real thing, but the fact that we in 2017 have the ability to do it is pretty impressive. I had hoped that everyone else can see it this way, but no. Instead you want to take it away from people like me who are intrigued by this whole hologram business. How exactly are we shooting the genre in the foot? Hey, the hologram stuff is cool, it just shouldn't be used to resurrect the dead. That's the issue we have with it. It has nothing to do with taking something away from people who like it. Have you ever wanted to see a deceased rock star live? With today's technology, we can finally give someone a small taste of what it's like. The naysayers are in my opinion, just like hardcore pro-lifers that would rather have people suffer from disease than use stem cells to cure them because of THE SANCTITY OF LIFE!!!1111 The same BS is being pulled, except its "the sanctity of rockstars" That is the most f***ed up logic I have ever read on this board. How do you even come up with that just because people are against rockstar holograms? Yes, i've wanted to see musicians that have passed away live. But they're dead and it was not meant to be, so I accept that and move on. Still, you never answered my first question. I'm guessing it's probably because you don't have one. But i'll ask again. How exactly are we shooting the genre in the foot? I have no problem awnsering that. If there is a musical act that is remembered fondly for its visual side as much as the music itself and for some circumstances, that musical act is no longer around due to either a death or a breakup and you so desperately wish that you would have been able to see that act live, and yet you're actively rejecting any opportunity to be able to somewhat know what it was like to see that musical act live, then I would call that shooting the genre in the foot because all you're doing is screwing yourself and other people who are interested in things like holograms and tribute bands. Isn't that called virtual reality? Bootlegs may have been recorded with that in mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ytserush Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 Ok, look at it this way. Mozart and Bach died centuries ago, but to this day, people pay good money to see symphonies. Tribute bands are obviously not the same, but are of a similar principle. They were geniuses. Kiss and Foreigner not so much.....The Beatles might be the best hope for something like that.

HemispheresserehpsimeH Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Oh dear. This is such a poor idea. I'm just glad I saw Dio when he was alive. And that's the whole thing. Dio was larger than life when you saw him live. Those kinds of frontmen/women are always larger than life. Which is why you need to see them in the flesh. Some cheap, digital, lifeless regurgitation of someone's presence is both pointless and insulting. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djflex Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 I feel holograms should be reserved for holo decks, like on star trek. That would be cool. I would probably with a harem style theme tho, instead of a rock star 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyBlaze Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Why not? Kiss is out playing with "Ace" and "Peter," Foreigner has no original members but they're touring, Frankie Banali tried to play as "Quiet Riot" with a bunch of zeroes. Seriously, this makes me sick. OMG OLDER BANDS PLAYING WITH NOT ALL THE ORIGINAL MEMBERS OMG SUCH TRAVESTY give me a goddamn break. Yeah. That's what I was saying. Because playing with a hologram of a deceased person to bilk the fans is just like a band getting a new drummer. Clown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll be a cheap shadow of you and a money grab from fans of the real fraroc. Those desperate fans will get to watch a video game and I'll be rich!!!!
