Music on Music

To begin abroad, I enjoy listening to music. To zoom in a bit, I am, like many people, a skeptic on lyrics and also how they intertwine themselves with the instrumental part of it. Yes, this is a simple thought.
Now, in terms of a band or arists becoming "rockstars" there are many kinds of them. A rockstar I believe is the unsigned 12 year old to the signed group to David Lee Roth not just David Lee Roth. With that said, as a music listener when a person chooses to become a musician there are many moods and models of thinking going on for the band or artist. Stage presence, at home presence, fan presence and other proper and polite ways in respect of presence is noticed. I see that when I'm focused on a group that "speaks to me" for a lack of better words.. I tend to question what something means or what image is created of feelings that I read into what the artist is doing. What are they doing for the commonwealth as a mentor in different respects? What are they doing when they are being a rockstar in all its connotatiousness of superficiality?
I've noticed that when I am watching a band or artist perform, I highly notice Interaction*-How they talk to their audience with their laugh, their eyes, their stance, their choices and other personable bonds within presence. I love when I see a band invite people up on the stage. I'm well aware of collaboration everywhere and plently of the "everyone come up" shows since my first one. I know that things are in a large percentage for being "showy" but sometimes I just can really see the truth in collaboration as oath to inspiration.
I've just really pulled this moment with The Format(band) into my thinking.
Here's a few great videos.
I think the next entry will be dedicated to the art of the music video
