Under the Big Top
Sunday night was spent babysitting, so I had my hands full of the original kind of gaga… not the kind that wears dresses that resemble a solar system.
The Grammys were on in the background (hubby insisted we watch). The little I did see, kinda made me sad. None of the performances seemed like they were about the songs being sung or celebrated last night.
I felt like I was under the big top, watching one act trying to outdo the next — one spectacle grander than the next… from monsters, to foot soldiers, and Cirque du Soleil impersonators… I felt bad for the musicians who just came out with microphones wanting to sing a song.
From the little I did see, there was no way I could have sat through the entire telecast… and I’m guessing I wasn’t the only one.
I applaud being an entertainer and giving a good show, I’m just not down with gimmicks.
