There shit.
The lead singer always takes a massive breath in before singing. It's all you can hear once you notice it.

Just back after seeing the Laurence Cottle Big Band at the Swansea International Jazz Festival, ( in my very best American accent) it was AWESOME. WOW. If the rest of the weekend is as good as that then we are in for a fantastic time. Congratulations to Dave , here’s hoping for an equally good next gig and continuing on through the weekend. Don’t miss out. Keep music live.
Does anyone like a Big Band? Try this...

Was it held in an old peoples home, or in a wax works as the people in front of who ever is filming don't seem to be moving.
For someone that has “no interest in Big Bands” (you must have watched the videos to comment), you appear to have a fixation with them to take up so much of your time. With regard to the audience, they are most likely listening to the band and probably none of them died from an overdose of illegal drugs like some have at so called big festivals involving “more modern and bigger bands”. I have no problem with other festivals by the way, but why make fun of people enjoying themselves listening to music they enjoy. Hope you enjoy the concerts you attend with no one trying to make fun of the audience.

You were good enough to put them up and why should I not look at them to see if they were any good , now if I would have enjoyed them I would have gladly told you, but I just found it boring and repetitive and seemed more interested in the lack of movement of the audience, I did see a few heads moving but that could have been down two the possibility of something like Parkinson's that sadly is quite common. in elderly people, and I hope you do not bring up the making fun of old people card as I`m just making an observation on what not seems to be going on in the audience.

Interesting that you chose the words “boring” and “repetitive “ in describing the video I put up, and then put up this which is full of extremely imaginative guitar playing 🙄 and key changes, and some very exciting hand clapping and dancing by the singer. I’m glad that you enjoy this. Each to their own eh.

We would enjoy the silence if you'd just f*ck up with your bullsh*t and f*ck off
You need to stop getting so worked up, as it`s not advisable at your age, put a Depeche cd on put your feet up and relax, and remember everything counts in large amounts.

Are you going to the Festival? If so , enjoy yourself. Live music is much more exciting than just listening to, or watching on YouTube. That’s why I enjoy going to jazz concerts. Please come back here and tell us how the Festival went.

No mate I`ll be at the Liberty watching the Killers, already seen Depeche twice on this tour and am also not a fan of festivals.

Vince Clark is an absolute genius. After he left Depeche Mode's music deteriorated badly. And I typed that message to you whilst lying on a sun lounger sipping an ice cold KEO beer in the scorching Cypriot sunshine. Not angry at all, just amused by how little you know about music

Yep Vince did write nice catchy poppy songs, but Depeche became massive after he left and Gore took over the song writing, they then broke America and ever since have been filling stadiums all over the world, the Global spirit tour was the most financially successful tour of 2017, which took some doing considering the calibre of bands who also had tours in 2017, you are welcome to check out these facts and then you may realise just how little YOU know about music you dopey bloke.

Perhaps it's not all about money. I suppose you're aware of Justin Bieber? He makes a lot of money but I wouldn't buy any of his music. Over to you , Einstein.

Yep
He's confusing popularity with artistic merit.
By his reckoning Coldplay are better than Cheap Trick...
