went to a musical. OMFG IT WAS SO DREADFUL I WANNA DIE!

[taxico]

today, i went to a musical that was playing in the city. full house.

i had a free ticket (met a girl at a bar, and she was a dancing cat in this show and she invited me).

i think it would be like a US$50-$60 ticket.

cats... was horrible.

granted, i've never been a big fan of musicals or broadway productions or shows or anything (my second home's in midtown manhattan).

i've never been to one. but it's one of those things i know i just won't take well to.

it was terrible. absolutely terrible. i don't know what the heck was going on. it was a bunch of short stories about cats, or cats played by humans, that much i know.

i didn't know what they were singing about, and the lights and smoke and everything was just weird!

and just as the stage went dark and those weird cat eyes came back lit on, i was about to leave and go back stage to see my friend...

opened my eyes really wide and did my neck and back and waist stretching and everything and prepared to head on out to the back...

then I FREAKIN FOUND OUT IT AIN'T OVER YET. IT WAS A BLOODY INTERMISSION... OH MY GOD. WHY??? ANOTHER HOUR OF PRANCING SINGING COSTUMED PERSONS?

so i had to go walk around for a lil bit and try to make sure my back wasn't aching too much (already hurting from sitting down too much the past few weeks) before i grudgingly made my way back for part 2....

the agony.

if there was anything redeeming, it would be that the female felines look smoooookin in those tight leotard suits, and there's a lot of crawling around and being on all fours (back towards the audience) and women being bendy.

i can tell i'm in trouble and need to avoid all phone calls on my cell and just drink beer at home from now on.

anyhow, i can understand this was entertainment back in '81, but man, the times have moved on and this andrew webber needs to QUIT MILKING IT.

if it comes to where you're at, wherever you're at, don't go.

even if it's a free ticket, and you were entertaining other not-so-nice-ideas when you said you'd go.

p/s: remember this is the rubbish area. this isn't meant to incite any hating. for musical or cats or cats the musical lovers, the above is NOT TRUE. i love cats. i love musicals. i love cats the musical.

Taxico, you went to the musical Cats and it was terrible? Or this was a spin off of the musical Cats? Sorry, you had a horrible experience. I've seen Cats in Melbourne and thought it was wonderful, so we must be talking about different productions. Take care of your back and stay out of the bars for a few days!

andrew lloyd webber's cats.

4-bottle hoegaarden is on sale at the local grocery store...
