Webers - Aerosmith

Aerosmith an American rock band gained increasing popularity all throughout the 1970's. They incorporated a few different types of rock influence such as rhythm and blues, pop, and maybe even some heavy metal. I chose to look at Aerosmith in particular a concert they played in Largo, Maryland. One thing that I noticed instantly was the lighting, it seemed very dim. Maybe this could have been misrepresented due to the video quality but lighting definitely can play into how the vibe of a concert plays out. The crowd does seem very energetic in the video even through the poor quality. Clearly today a lot more effort goes into choreographing these concerts to optimize the performance. This may not have been of such great concern in the past. My personal favorite song from this concert is probably the one most of us will recognize, "Dream On". A song which has been and is still greatly used in popular culture, films, sporting events, etc. Many people probably were looking forward to this tune in concert, perhaps maybe this song was strategically placed in the concert, as to keep up the anticipation.
