High highs & boring lows

“I’m not sure how they select the acts for this show? There’s never an explanation as to why someone is there, although it’s almost always an unspoken promotion for their latest albums.
The concept is kinda cool, but it’s a bit too irreverent of a concept for there to be such a revolving doors-approach to booking artists. There’s no connection from one concert to another, and it isn’t really a special performance space; it’s literally at a guy’s desk. Good for you if you enjoy the gimmick that much, but I have to be honest and say I’ve given this a shot and the series isn’t for me.
Erykah Badu, Mac Miller w/ band, and the Bob Weir show were all class acts & memorable shows that I have listened to dozens of times each.
My advice is listen to this if you see an artist you already like. I think they’re trying to like “expose” listeners to “new” music and that just feels so corny and forced sometimes, it’s difficult to enjoy. Yet, some favorite artists of mine have gone on there and ripped a great set, so I can’t purely criticize the show.
Tl;dnr: decent series overall, cringingly gimmicky, has had some really high moments in its history yet I don’t listen to it often.”
