Cooled off much? Yes.
Went and saw Pop Concert. Disappointing, technical merit wise. The stage direction needed severe help. Several of the singers needed to learn how to put emotion into their singing while others tried too hard to make themselves sing exactly like the cd. Oh, and they gave Incubus' "Drive" the boy band treatment. Grr.
But one thing I have to say: I feel sorry for James. And the entire audience felt the same way.
And yes, this performance should've been in the blackbox instead of the main stage. Intimate settings are better for the slower songs.
DJ was there wearing a black collar top (::gasp!::) but with jeans (::disappointment!::) and had dragged along two BMS Starlite-ers who'll be coming to LVA next year. One was a boy who had recently come out. Didn't even have to mention it; he had that "kid in a candy store" look whenever he saw all the people in the crowd. The other was a girl who had a thing for J. Lopez (not the singer, the dancer) and kept staring at him during intermissions.
But yes, I agree that the show was lack luster. Oh, I said that already? Hm, damn.
Dad seemed extra irritable today. And he seems to read acts of politeness from me as acts of disrespect. Just because they were coming from me. Hrm. Yes, I'm half to blame, but he's definitely holding back a bit himself. Aren't you, dad?
