Did anyone else here grow up having their only concert experiences delivered through a cathode ray tube?

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.

It was a collective, beautiful illusion. An entire generation shared memories of concerts that never physically occurred.

I hated those broadcasts. Canned applause and lip-synced choreography. I wanted real sweat and broken guitar strings.

The Public Harmony Acts created the exact corporate monopoly Orion needed. No touring costs, zero physical risk.
