Don't Get Rid of Live Musicians on Dancing With the Stars

Seeing what it takes to make the music by seeing a few views of the players is highly educational.

a live band is so much classier. One of the brass section is a friend of a friend of mine! so it feels personal to me.

for my students - give them something to aspire to!

For my brother, who is a real musician!

I would never dream of watching the show without it's live orchestra. You cannot replace them with canned music! You just put a whole bunch of hardworking people out of a job and let's be honest, to attract a younger audience? Nobody, NOBODY believes you.

BIG MISTAKE! Please don't do this! Live Music is a huge center piece of the show!

Harold Wheeler is a great band leader and the show band has been a huge part of this show. This sucks donkey turds. I have watched every season, but I will never watch this show again unless they return the band. Guess what, I am your demographic.

Please keep the musical vitality alive!

Bring them back!!

Keep the live music!!!!!!!

support live music!

The live music is why I have watched the show.

You clearly have NEVER learned anything from your past mistakes. No wonder you have not been #1 since the '70s!!! Good riddance to yet another one of your great shows! Idiots.

Will not watch if this goes through!

Live musicians are so much better!

Won't be watching anymore. Loved the orchestra and especially the singers. Added class

Please do not allow the musicality of our culture suffer further based on the incorrect belief that our "younger" generation do not appreciate live musicians...

It's artists like Antonio Sol, one of the lead singers of the band, who made this show worth watching! This is obviously a choice by the producers which should be reversed, before it's too late. A "small electronic band" is pathetic and ill-informed.

The live music really makes that show!

Keep live musicians!! Canned music lacks integrity on a show like yours!
