We thought we were watching a live concert in a distant stadium. We had no idea the crowd roar was a synthesizer loop. You could hear the simulated crowd chant 'NOVA! NOVA!' between songs, but her eyes were always looking slightly past the lens. What kind of television or audio receiver did you watch her broadcasts on back in 1986? -- Emi Weber *PLONK* filter active for trolls.

We had no idea the crowd roar was a synthesizer loop. I hated those broadcasts. Canned applause and lip-synced choreography.

We had no idea the crowd roar was a synthesizer loop. Let's not romanticize government bans on live music. It was censorship and corporate control, plain and simple. -- Tyler Schneider Tape trading list upon request. SASE required for international mail.
