Controversial comments by Ed Motta were made during live on Instagram
Ed Motta does not like live performances. The singer criticized his own shows and stated that he doesn’t feel like checking out artists he admires live, because, in his opinion, the experience will never be good.
In one of his already traditional lives on Instagram (via rock radio), Motta listed recurring problems in shows: “The tuning is bad, the execution doesn’t roll well. It’s not just in my show, it’s in others too. There’s always someone who makes a mistake, right? Someone who falters, a little finger that bumps on the piano, a guitar string that is loose, a chord that misses, the voice is out of tune.”
The “lasagna of trouble” seen in live performances even includes the chosen venues themselves. For Edevents take place in houses without adequate acoustic structure: “Then there’s the sound… no need to comment. Apart from the sound, there’s the place, which is not usually a place treated to put on a show. It’s a gym hitting everything, horrible sound.”
“Horrible. Everyone standing up, drinking a warm beer, not understanding anything. Look, it’s hell for every place, okay? Like that… the live show is a lasagna of problems, right?”, completed the musician.
Motta even reported his own experience when trying to watch a Michel Legrandwhen he was bothered by the singing of other people in the audience: “I went to see a concert by Michel Legrandbut the human being on the side was singing… I paid the ticket to see the Michel Legrand singing, not this idiot next to me.”
