I have a "rock concert" too, I've never seen another one.

Your the second or third person on our site that mentioned also having one.
I've had that for so many years I can't remember where it came from, an ex-lady picked it up at some flee market or other ???
This one is all made of rocks, one bigger for the base and a bunch of real small ones for the people.
It was a lot of work for someone to collect the right size rocks, then glue them together and paint em for the people.
They are pretty cool, at least to me.
Cheers.

That's pretty cool that there are a few out there still. I had an aunt who always encouraged my love of art and music, she gave mine to me in the early 80's. I'll try to remember to take a pic when I get home from work, it looks just like yours. One of my cats knocked it off the bookshelf and I had to re-do the popsicle stick, I was glad that's all that broke.

That's about the time frame I got mine also.
I lived in Chicago when I got mine.
It's interesting to hear that a few have popped up all over the country, just a home-made craft project I imagine.

idk, those seem pretty ugly to me, no?

These focals look rather utilitarian.

Visible screws are a no go in this category of “most beautiful”.

Found it, definitely not an artist local to southwestern PA where I grew up

These guys were my favorite, probably influenced my smoking of dried plants behind the bleachers in high school.

I have a Rock Concert or 2 as well. My grandmother gave them to me. Not sure where they are at the moment.

What the heck, you've got a surround sound Rock Concert with guys in the back. LOL
Do you think it was Made in the Philippines ?

Nope...I prefer the exposed machine screws & despise trim rings.. Everyone sees this thread differently it seems.

That's a matter of taste.
I find them visually very appealing for a high-quality studio Monitor.

Each to their own, No way in hell I would pay $3,000 a pair for 6" woofered two ways.

The two beryllium tweeters alone cost over 1000 euros, plus the rather expensive woofer, cabinet and amplifier electronics. Add a subwoofer and you spend less on a high-quality system than on components. The same applies to Genelec, Neumann, KS and Co.
