Astat Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 Because they're standing there jamming on their instruments like something's actually happening. They're basically acting. On the DSPs, yes they did edit them and correct them to make them sound better but at least they had the decency to actually perform instead of act like they're filming a music video. You say that like it was their decision. It most clearly was not, and almost never is in these kind of situations. They probably had a choice of playing to a backing track, or not playing at all.

wiiesel Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 (edited) It wasn't DBS's decision. Every band which ever played at this show (one show every year) had playback! Edited October 11, 2009 by wiiesel Quote
Xero21 Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 The latter would have been the more respectful thing to do IMO. Not necessarily. If they hadn't been informed of what they'd have to do before hand, then maybe they just didn't want to disappoint the fans that had paid to see them perform by backing out, as it was only one song anyway. If that's the case then great move by DBS. I dislike the fact that they used a backing track but it was just for this event so it doesn't really matter. Quote
neil Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 muse did the same Nono, THIS is what happens when you do it to Muse. Quote
LPxDC Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 Nono, THIS is what happens when you do it to Muse. lmfao i saw that when it came out! Idk the idea of DBS doing this kinda bothers me. But i did like the camerawork in this video. Looked cool! Quote
spraypaintninkpens Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 (edited) so they just lip synced a performance?That's pretty lame of chester to go through with that. Edited October 11, 2009 by spraypaintninkpens Quote
NoSunToday Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 (edited) I wouldn't blame them for performing that song there half-playbacked. I mean, there were 45000 people in the arena, more than 5million watched the show. It would habe been very stupid not to play this show after getting to know that there will be a playback. How would it have looked like if they hadn't been on stage after all? That's promotion and that's how the music business works. I don't like bands doing that, but at least the vocals were not playbacked. Furthermore, there were people only because of dbs (including me) and we would have been very disappointed (well, I was due to the playback, but okay...) I also guess not all of them realized what happened yesterday as the guys were better in acting than "Pur", it just looked more than funny. Oh, and one last thing: You won't cancel a show hosted by Stefan Raab in Germany...He's just too famous. I already gave the numbers. I believe it's an honor for music acts to be chosen to perform there. CBI even was the title song they always played in ads for the show. You cannot do better promotion... edit: I forgot: It would have been really expensive for dbs to come there and say: nope, we won't play... Edited October 11, 2009 by NoSunToday Quote
LESTAT Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 so they just lip synced a performance?That's pretty lame of chester to go through with that. Check out the video, it seems the organizers had the band pull a "Top Of The Pops" and had Chester & Ryan sing over a backing instrumental of 'Crawl Back In'. Chester and Ryan sang LIVE. Quote

Jani Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 I remember Chester once saying in an interview that "I might not always be on key, but I will never do a lip sync-performance." Quote
NoSunToday Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 I remember Chester once saying in an interview that "I might not always be on key, but I will never do a lip sync-performance." They actually SANG live.... Quote

LESTAT Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 Edited first post: People, read closely. Chester and Ryan sang live. It was not lip-syncing. The instruments were playback. Quote
Jani Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 They actually SANG live.... That's what i mean, I know they did. Quote

Jack Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 (edited) I actually find it pretty cool that this happened. Edit: Download Audio Here. I edited the beginning to get rid of the cheering. Edited October 11, 2009 by Jack Quote

murphyLP Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 I think people seems to care less because it isn´t Linkin Park. If was Linkin Park I have no doubt that everyone was going to criticize. I don´t like the idea of playback instrumentals or the actually singing part. They don´t need to playback anything IMO By the way...Ryan is horrible singing!!! Quote
deko_lp Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 ryans microfone had wrong settings, it was too loud videos from BEFORE and AFTER the act you can watch here chaz @ "warum up" ... DBS watching "Raab in Gefahr" ... Quote
FCastro Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 Nothing to say about it... but I've got a question: why do the bands used playback? Quote
