TOO LATE TOO LOUD TOO DARK AND TOO HOT

by ed bruce edbrucevegas@yahoo.com

No shortage of problems here ! Felix Cavaliere's Rascals....(never heared of him) the music, somewhat oldies...11 minutes late....72 minutes long...get the hook...I thought he would never leave ! This to be followed by a 19 minute intermission and its 942 before headliner Tommy James hits the stage...remember whether its man landing on the moon, the second coming of Christ or the making of a black president at 10 oclock people leave, quit or go to bed...I know this is true because I did it last night. Holy shit this just loud !

East Cannery Las Vegas has this half ass outdoor theatre which can sometimes be indoors and when its 130 in late August lets do outdoors ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Not the worst venue, covered seating, table seating, grandstand seating....all too close for the noise...yet another night where we could have killed the drummers....I am sick of it already...management here took this to another level of down, adding too hot to too late too loud too dark to the big three of how to make things miserable.

I dont know if Felix Vavaliere is a rascal or an original member of the band or not...he could have told...dah...the music itself nostalgic but overpowered by noise....I think some people actually like this shit...I am still searching for lyrics !

I saw Tommy James at the Silverton outdoors and had in my mind a positive experience but here I was worn out before kickoff...He sang Towing the Line and Crystal Blue Persuassion and we were on I 15. Maybe 1300 for this....some may have paid ! The Cannery does oldies replays like this quite often....they must all be the same outline...I am about done...work cannot overpowere the pain here. When they hand you frozen towellettes as you enter what is the message here ?
