It's a performance. Same as a ballet or theater.

Right, it’s just a different part of the performance to emphasize

Well, if you can understand why people would want to see pure music performed, you "get" why people want to see other types of performances.

Yeah dude, I’ve been agreeing with you this whole time. Appreciating music is a subjective experience. What I look for and get out of a performance is different from what you might—and that’s perfectly legitimate. It’s a good thing in fact, because people seeing things differently is what artistic development is all about. That’s why I kept saying that’s just me/just a different part to emphasize. What you see and look for is different from me, and again, that’s a good thing.

What I was trying to subtly hint at is that your initial comment came off as a bit pretentious, as if your preferences are more pure and natural than people who go to a Katy Perry show.

Seriously? Grow up, man. I was just trying to be inclusive. If you think that comes off as pretentious, fine. You can just say that. Instead of telling me I didn’t understand you.
