Did I not say, 'catered to the ears?' I didn't say I didn't like the show!
I was originally posting to a girl who had just bought a couple tricky
cd's, so she'd know what to expect. I was here when people were trashing
tricky concerts and that's why I thought there would be the chance of
disappointment. Stoned and droning is not necessarily a bad thing,
especially when you come there likin the damn music! It's just not a
theatrical or motion oriented or visual (including set, lights) kind of
show, more like he gets up there and is in his personal space doing his
thing, we just happen to be present and watching.
