i know it's only rock and roll
i'm reading chuck berry's autobiography.
"We all know booing is the expression of contempt or disapproval, but there are some levels of the expressions that one side of society may never see. Take the most elegant of productions, say a symphony. There a person will cough, or as a sign of multiple dissatisfaction, you will hear scattered little cracking noises throughout the audience that definitely would not occur during an appreciated performance. With another class of people one might hear an obviously faked clearing of a throat or the generak restlessness and stirring of the audience during the performance. Then there are the average people who pay, wishing to see their purchased product. In a polite way they openly announce their desire to hear your hit, or something they know better than what's being delivered. Or they might start moving around, visiting the john and murmuring out of discontent with the performance at the moment.
"Finally there's a crowd that intends to get what they paid for and makes it known if they don't. One might witness the standing protester who revengefully exaggerates his discontent, blatantly shouting his views of the performing artist's unpopular choice. The crowd collectively may stomp and roar so loudly that an alert producer will pull the act off and replace it with a more favored one."
people used to boo chuck berry. from this tale, i have extracted a lesson: just goes to show that there just ain't no pleasing some folks, and there ain't no good in trying.
