Just got back from the A Perfect Circle show. Maynard spent the entire show on a platform set back further from the rest of the band. His face was difficult if not impossible to see due to his hair and position. The only way you could tell it was him was the voice or the tattoo on his back.

The show was about an hour and fifteen minutes, not counting the opening act, Den of Fools or something. They sucked. APC rocked.

last time i saw them in nyc a year or so ago he did the same thing... kinda weird, but then again, this is maynard we're talking about... did they play diary of a madman??

No. Maynard picked on moshers a lot, though. That's what we got here.

The crowd really didn't go ape**** until they played 'Judith'. I myself was hoping for a cover of 'Aenema' but it didn't happen.

I was talking to the people I went with at a pizza joint, and they said that ever since Tool released 'Lateralus' that Maynard has had that spot on stage. I guess that means he does the same thing during Tool shows.

The show was fantastic. Its the first time I have seen her in concert so I really enjoyed it. The stage set up was perfect, in the round so everyone could see.

The reviews in our newspaper were all positive & best of all, she is coming back on June 12, 2004!  8) This time I'm taking the camera!  ;)

Heres a list of the tour dates:

Shania Tour 03/04

I'm sure you will enjoy the concert!  ;)

You mean. . .  She's successful because of her looks, and not because of her artistic and musical creativity?   :o  ???

And if that's the case, well, at least we have musical genius Britney Spears to rely on.

For me at least...I'd say she's still pretty big with the country crowd regardless if she is HOT or not

well i think she is still hot, even for the pop crowd though, cause her music does not sound like it is just country it has all kinds of genre in it.

Okay.  If it's all about the music, then that's great.

Tell you what:  Picture the ugliest woman you can think of, and then imagine her singing any given Shania Twain song--and sounding exactly the same as Shania.  (Personally, I'm picturing Sandra Bernhard here, because she's the ugliest woman I've seen recently).

Now, do you really think that she would be anywhere near as successful as Shania Twain?

Exactly.

Gilligan, you just may get us off this island after all.
