No one is talking about the MAIN difference between gigging with the B and what we do now...
On the B, you played EVERYTHING!

No accompaniment, no 'helpers', no lyrics on screen, no Songbook features, no sounds coming out that OUGHT to be played by a drummer or bass player or guitarist. What the audience heard was what they SAW...
Play something great, nobody assumed it was a machine. Play something bad, EVERYBODY knew it was you!
Nowadays, nobody knows what's real and what isn't. And are pretty blasé about the whole experience, I'm afraid. I miss the old days...
