Oral blog Entry Four - Comparison of two pictures

Picture 1
Picture 2

Questions to help compare and contrast the two pictures

• What kind of people do you think prefer to go to live music performances and what sort of people prefer to listen to recorded music?

• Which do you prefer, listening to recorded music or going to live concerts?

• Have you ever been to a performance similar to this?

Well both of these pictures are related to music. The first one is of a live rock concert and the second one is of a young woman who looks as if she is listening to a CD. I think that different types of people go to live concerts it's just that they go to different sorts of performances. For example young people probably like going to rock concerts such as this in the picture whereas older people may prefer to go to concerts where classical music is played such as operas or orchestras. Although I know a lot of older people went to see The Rolling Stones when they played here in Auckland last year.
I think most people like listening to CDs and mp3s and we all probably listen to different types of music depending on how we are feeling at the time. I like both going to live concerts and listening to CDs .
I've been to lots and lots of live concerts although they aren't usually rock concerts! I've even met a few famous people after some of the concerts, but of course I'm not telling you who! I've also been to a few music festivals where it generally rains and you end up walking around in rivers of mud.
