Hello, Sherlock Holmes adaptation writer. I have trapped you in this room. It is fully furnished and comfortable. On the table, you will notice a copy of A Scandal in Bohemia by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, of which redistribution is perfectly legal, as the work is in the public domain. You will notice it is rather thin. You have 24 hours to read the approximately 8,550 words in this story. To exit this room, all you must do is summarize the plot of the story without referring to Irene Adler as a seductress or implying she is attracted to Sherlock Holmes. Good luck.

Last night Low Cut Connie covered Little Richard and it got me thinking about how there's a timelessness to rock 'n' roll that gets lost on studio recordings, the way the stage functions as a kind of experiential equalizer, particularly in small clubs where production values tend to be similar and similarly unornamented. Recording technology and the accompanying production tastes and trends have changed so much since the 1950s, whereas the practice of amplifying and playing those instruments in a room of 50-500 drunk people — while certainly not static — remains unaltered at the level of fundamentals in such a way that the brunt sensory difference between hearing a song written/recorded in 1954 and one from 2004 becomes the least perceptible when they are performed live. Like I fully believe that if indie rock bands were covering "Lucille" or "Rip It Up" on the reg we'd have a thriving new generation of vintage rock 'n' roll aficionados. Or maybe that's just wishful thinking on my part. But a girl can dream!

This is compelling but how do we know for sure how little audiences experiences and perceptions of live music have changed so little? I don’t say this to call you out but to ask if you know anyone who’s old enough to compare and has described the comparison in writing or online, I’d love to see/read what they have to say

i love dialogue in old comics where characters speak unnaturally and describe out loud the things theyre doing. reminds me of stage plays
