sweetcell - what did you think of the show? all i know is - ive never heard so many people talk in the front throughout an entire show that i spent way too much money on. more embarrassing - half the front didnt even know the words to 'west end girls'. was a total FAIL on the sing along.

week's roll-call/recap:

tuesday: the roots @ the highline ballroom
amazing, amazing show.  people really need to check this one out if they're in NYC on a tuesday or wednesday night.  it starts late, so you could conceivably do another show.  this week they had henry butler join in for the first half of the show - kick-ass electric blues.  the band's horn section is ridiculous.  i've been to this show three times now, and every time i leave with a huge smile on my face.  and it's only $10!  GET ON THIS, PEOPLE.

wednesday: pet shop boys @ hammerstein
great show, although i slightly preferred the last tour.  PSB still bring the broadway fabu factor to their stage show: dancers, numerous costume changes, and a very creative set that is constantly changing and being used in creative ways.  this show was a little shorter than the previous one, 90 mins vs. 110-120'ish.  folks looking for some entetainment tonight could do worse than this show.  a noticed a few cheap tix on CL...

saturday: !!! @ BC, maybe.

there was quite of bit of chatter but i'm slowly starting to accept that as part of the modern-day concert experience, unfortunately.  where i was - dead center of the floor - the talking was mostly washed out by the music.  the main PA was LOUD, more so than i would have expected as a PSB show.  weird that so may people up front were talking - you'd think that the hardcore fans would be against the rail and enthralled with the show.  predictably there were a lot of gay club-boys in attendance and for many this was more of a party & a celebration more than a show that one concentrates on.  chatter was to be expected, really.

yes, it was an expensive ticket but someone/something has to pay to schlep around all the equipment.
