Do music reviewers need to know
anything about music, stagecraft, sound engineering and general related gubbins?
This is a discussion I had last night, concerning a review where the reviewer blamed the band for 'over loud bass' or something to that effect.
It chimed with me cos I was at said gig, and the sound man was having a nightmare trying to get his woefully underpowered desk cope with the acoustics.
I remember reading the negative review and thinking that's crap though, the band couldn't have done anything about that.
