It would be showing my age to say something like in my day… But - TopicsExpress



          

It would be showing my age to say something like in my day… But I am so very used to attending concerts where photographs and digital recording devices are prohibited. One thing that was so very different about the Katy Perry concert was that social media and sharing has become part of the promotional process and even an aspect of audience performer interaction. At several points during the concert she invited audience members onstage to take selfies with with her. The audience was encouraged to take out their cell phones and wave them in unison much like we wouldve done with BIC lighters in years gone by. The audience was made up of mostly young girls. There were a few 40 and 50 somethings but I have to say I think we were the oldest ones I saw in the crowd. There were a lot of twenty-somethings and even grade school aged girls dressed in Katy Perry knockoff garb like the outlandishly colored wigs, lighted tutus and so forth. Overall it was a marvel in stagecraft, talent, lighting and choreography. After all her recalcitrance in even going to the concert, Dorothy was the one who didnt want to leave one the hour grew late. My niece, Jessica acquired the tickets long ago and was in attendance with her family. It was good just to see them again and catch up we havent had a good visit since Christmas. Its one of those times you ask yourself why do I go so long before doing this. They have a beautiful family and have done well with their children.
