If for once they actually played REAL music at these shows I would consider going again, but typically, as J. Gordon Holt said years ago, there is an inverse relationship between the best sounding music and the most popular music, or something like that.
Why is it I typically hear some sort of solo cello or some minimalist jazz or something very few people even care about listening too? The best systems and reps should not be afraid to play the most popular or familiar music to show attendees. The question keeps coming up as to why people are turning away from the "high end" and IMO THAT is exactly the reason. It’s been like this for YEARS. No wonder it’s such a turn off. I mean even if they at least played, for example, some Dead Can Dance, Pat Metheny or Steely Dan once in awhile, well, hooray.
