Why Bands Don’t Play Their Biggest Hits | BACKSTAGE BANTER #031
from Backstage Banter
Backstage Banter is back in Studio BAAAnter for Episode 31, diving headfirst into another wonderfully weird week in the music industry.This week, Chris and Brett unpack some of the biggest new music releases and Australian tour announcements, including news from PRESIDENT and the return of electronic music heavyweight Armin van Buuren to Australia.We also ask an important question: what happens when you see one of your favourite bands live… and they don’t play the song everyone is waiting for? We revisit some of the gigs where an expected hit mysteriously disappeared from the setlist and discuss whether artists actually owe fans their biggest songs.Plus, we head back into the archives for another classic album review — although this week's record might not be quite as “classic” in Brett's eyes.For all your music news, tour announcements, new releases and culture, head to aaabackstage.com and sign up to the AAA Backstage newsletter.https://mailchi.mp/d1086e851ce4/aaa-newsletter-sign-upFollow the Weekly Catch Playlist: https://hypeddit.com/5j1ekkBackstage Banter is now available everywhere you get your podcasts, including Apple Podcasts and Spotify, as well as right here on YouTube.If you’re loving the show, don’t forget to like, comment and subscribe.
