BLAH could he not have done it on another day?

 

 

A request was made that he perform that night and he obliged. :) It's for all the uncoupled people who don't go out on V-Day. :) Almost an anti- V-Day gathering. :) I was present at his last event at the same location. It was lovely. :)

When Armenchik is selling out the Nokia Theatre and Hamalirr and Tata (not being a "wedding singer") has become so commercialized that you cannot differentiate one album of his from another, I think he has some (read lots) of leeway to demand that his people raise their collective taste in music. Maybe it isn't fitting that he toot his own horn, but I agree with the overall statement he made.

that's not the point...

 

the point is that a "real" artist promotes his work for what it is, not for what it is not... or by putting others' work down... but his attitute was more of a jelousy than anything else.... (as you said, because armenchik sells out nokia, and he can't even fill out a 20x20 room...)

 

not that i care about rabiz, etc... to me, that kind of attitude is very discouraging...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SS24yovo3Fw

 

 

A Splinter is an Armenian language alternative/folk band. The songs are based on real-life experiences and cover a wide range of topics from romance to war. They are written as stories which splinter off from the norm, dancing about in warm breeze or lodging under your skin in a storm, making you deal with often ignored realities. In addition, some of the stories are presented with a good deal of humor, reminding you to laugh at everything, even at your very own death.

 

The band includes Ashot Tadevosian (vocals, guitar), Harut Hovsepyan (guitar, vocals), Byuzand Azizyan (djembe, vocals), Lyudmila Grigoryan (vocals), Armen Kvryan (duduk).

Dear Nane, with all due respects. We love you. Please tell us that some Armenians will actually pay their last luma to listen to such Gor-Zhkhor/Ժխոր/noise

Please tell us when the guitar became an Armenian instrument?

in one of your posts laity you complain that this forum is starving for intellect yet you make a mockery of very same people who represent intellect.

sometimes it appears you suffer from verbal diarrhea.

Dear Arpa, with all due respect. I really don't know (or care) who will pay their first or last luma to listen to Gor. The main purpose of this concert is to introduce a newly formed band called A Splinter (Տաշեղ). Gor will only sing a few songs.

 

You very well know that the guitar has not been claimed to be an Armenian instrument, so I really don't see the point of your question. Just because it's not an Armenian instrument it cannot be used to perform songs in Armenian??? You must be kidding!!!
