3 days ago i went to a concert i considered would be a nice-not-as-religious-as-it-was-experience. Honestly, i’m a little disappointed, Harlem Gospel Choir… it was ok, but it wasn’t what i exepcted. I am amused how “church” music can be so “disrespectful” to the audience that is listening to it.
The event was held in the Hall of the Burgas Opera and here are some photos from it:
Hey, i don’t mind them, this is a choir very popular and maybe very commercial with their performances with Michael Jackson, but i think they could be much much much better. And it sounds to me pretty unserious to praise God in such a commercial way… no offense to their audience and fans – this is just my opinion. My understanding of church music is this of the Sofia Boys Choir:
or this of the Angelite Choir…
and not
What amused me was that in one of the songs they performed they started to sing parts of “Sex Machine by James Brown“… WTF ?! This is a church choir, god damned!
I just got a new and rather unexpected gift… a book. Some of you might say this is not something as strange as it seems to me, but having the fact that i haven’t had the chance to read papper books lately this is an event..
The book’s called “Tractate for the hangover” (originally “Tratado Sombre la Resaca”). Funny, huh ?! The author is Juan Bas. Actually, this book seems to be one of those books which you read for 1 night.
Girls, look what i found out – i just randomly opened the book on a page and i can read the comparison between how women and men assimilate alchohol.
“Sex. Women assimilate alchohol worse then men. They get drunk faster and in general suffer more from hangover. Their liver produces less of the dehydrogenazys enzym and their bodies contain less water. From the liquors the best thing for women to drink is… beer. ”
Actually, it seems like this is the only advantage that men have in the whole hangovering-story theme.
