Hall’s Rule of Social Order #194 |
A musical act should be rated against this rubric to determine their quality:
Band’s name – 3%
Band’s aesthetics (clothes, make up, hair, physical attractiveness, showmanship) – 7%
Ability to attract listener’s attention (lyrical hooks, real life publicity, etc) – 10%
Instrumental proficiency – 23%
Originality/inspirational quality of lyrics – 26%
Ability to perform live (without production effects/mastering) – 31%
If we used this rubric, we’d prevent over saturation of pure entertainment acts being passed off as musicians and talented. It also avoids the ostentatious personalities that think just because they can shred on a guitar means they are the best thing that happened to the world.
