I saw it Friday night. I thought it was good, but I'm hardly the best judge of anything music-related and I rarely understand more than half the words of any song. There're also a NYT review and an NPR article out since the show.
I got the impression over the weekend that quite a few of Freeman's boxes have yet to be catalogued so who knows what may be found.
---------
Much as I enjoyed myself, I was at a bit of a disadvantage over the weekend. It was sort of like being in Willie Wonka's chocolate factory but without Willie Wonka to explain anything.
I'm completely tone deaf
I have NO sense of rhythm whatsoever.... and I do mean zero.
I never had any exposure to anything music related growing up. There was music class in school, but that consisted mostly of getting screamed at for reasons I never did figure out. Although I do recall the teacher blasting the same note over and over again on a pitch pipe and insisting they were different.
Dancing is even worse:
I have no depth perception
I can mirror really well, but I can't flip. You show me right-handed? I do it left-handed.
I have an aversion to crossing mid-line. Left hand does things on the left, right hand on the right.
Sorry, I didn't mean to hijack the thread. My point is that even though beyond ill-equipped to understand anything going on, I still enjoyed Voodoo.
