The show was okay. It was pretty much exactly the same format as last year's Variety Playhouse show, only with less energy and some new songs. This time I could actually *see* the Strongbad puppet. Also, I never thought that knowing the lyrics to Fqwgads (sp?) would come in handy ( Read more... )

You know, I always get Linnell-side. Even if we're the first ones there, and I try the Flans side for once, eventually I get myself migrated back to the piano. It's beyond my control. I think he has a remote control labeled "Heidi's legs".

I used to always go Linnell side, but I get tired of having to spend most of the show avoiding his gaze so as not to make him uncomfortable ;)

But that just means he's challenging you for pack dominance!

Okay, maybe it is a good idea to avoid eye contact.

LOL, it's okay. I'm not offended. Really, I very rarely am, by anything.

The Johns are so weird.

My cell was also dead, so there went that opportunity! However, they did have everyone turn on their phone lights and hold them up lighter-style. That would have been a perfect opportunity :/

What do you mean by "same format"? Same set with a few changes?

Damn, I've always wanted to see "Come On Fhqwhgads" live.

Linnell-centric? Do tell.

The stage banter was extremely similar, they opened with the venue song from last year, the set was almost identical except they didn't play MISLIH, Ana Ng, or Thunderbird (which they only played last time because I wrote THUNDERBIRD? on the back of my foam hand and placed it at Flans' feet - on the live set available online, they start the song with a dedication to the ladies in the front row).

It was almost all Linnell songs. For once, he seemed the more animated of the two.
