About this Quote

Aynsley Dunbar's quote is a reflection on the changing nature of music and audience expectations. In the past, audiences were more tolerant of long drum solos and would even motivate them. This permitted the artists to take a break and the audience to go to the bar and have a drink. However, in the present day, audiences are less tolerant of long drum solos and are most likely to grumble about them. This suggests that music has actually become more busy and audiences are less ready to wait for a long solo. It likewise suggests that the bar scene has actually ended up being less important to audiences, as they are less likely to take a break to go to the bar. Dunbar's quote is a suggestion of how music and audience expectations have actually changed over time.
