Pure lethargy!
I have spent money to see Paul Simon twice now and will not do it again! Every musical number was at the same lethargic pace...just plain painful! Her choice to do a Joni Mitchell number whose words don't rhyme, make sense or have any discernible melody made me wish I had brought earplugs. I do still like her records, no doubt due to better production advice she follows versus her concerts. That said, much of the concert was excellent, her support group (base, drummer, guitarist, keyboardist and violinist) were great jazz. Her choice to do a Bob Dylan number in a Bob Dylanesque style...sucked. She also sang some songs that were clearly beyond her range...sounded like yodeling.
