Okay, yeah, so I paid actual money to see Boston and Styx last night. See that guy in the middle? Is there a word for negative charisma? Because dude sucked the life out of all the other musicians onstage. Him working a tambourine was actually one of the more comical things I've ever seen. Here is a fabulous pic from my cameraphone that may give you an indication of how wooden this guy is.
Okay, so maybe you can't really tell from that picture. But that is pretty much what he looked like all night. A little fuzzy and totally clenched. There
is a reason that fans of rock bands should never, ever be allowed on stage.
Just look at how riveted the crowd was:
There were several people actually catching up on their sleep, and they were not of the usual classic rock passed-out variety of concert nappers. I never
thought I'd see the day when Styx...STYX!!!! gave a far better performance than Boston. Tom Scholz is still a complete genius, no question. And the guy
from Stryper actually has some good pipes.
But no Brad Delp==no Boston.
THE END.
