This Blog was written several weeks ago, but I am finally posting it now...
OK, I took Lizzy to see a concert, so I
took Emily to a taping of America's Got Talent. We went to a
pre-taping of a performance of 'Once' so we were given premium
seating for Wednesday (08/29/2012) nights' show. Emily, her friend
and I took the early train to Newark and grabbed a bite to eat. We
then took the light rail to the Performing Arts Center. When handing
in our voucher, we received third tier tickets. What third tier means
is that a low flying plane may actually hit you during the show.
We got to the show early and waited an
hour until they let us in. Once in, we walked up a butt-load of
steps to get to our floor and eventually our seats. The MC for the
evening, Tom somethingorother was humorous and kept the audience
involved. Besides the promise of premiere seats from 'On Camera
America' and the occasional nose bleeds, the only other issue we had
with the show was the 'direction', the audience was given. With all
of the stand, clap, clap with hands overhead and so on, I felt like I
was a young boy at church hearing the nuns yell, “Stand! Sit!
Kneel!”.
I like seeing live performances of tv
shows, unfortunately it's like looking behind the curtain. Some of
the magic is lost.
