Jewel Concert
We went to a Jewel Concert this weekend down at the Horseshoe Casio in Tunica. It’s my first non-orchestral concert, so I was a little apprehensive. My concerns were belayed. It was a good show. Pretty good value too. I rate musicians’ skill based not only on how well I like their music, but also if they can perform without studio magic. So many ‘musicians’ today couldn’t hold a tune without sudio technicians cleaning things up and mixing it all together. That and their incessant need to record dozens of takes that get spliced together for the best parts of each just rubs me wrong. I can report that Jewel is a fine performer with no need for reliance on such trickery. It was a good time.
