Not gonna lie. The GA for that show looks like a creeper convention.

How do you figure? All you can see are the backs of people's heads in the dark.

At the start you can see people just fine. And it was a bunch of creepy dudes.
The little bit of the show I watched seemed like a high school cheer dance routine. Whatever floats your boat, man. But I don't get it.

Yes.

It didn't look any different from any other crowd to me, so what's your definition of "creepy?"

It's all about the music, dude. Everything else is gravy.

Re: Perfume's first North American tour stop was TONIGHT!
Maybe it helps to understand Japanese but otherwise it's the music I find equally meh accompanied by the cheer squad chorography.
Contrast these two very similarly composed songs:
Perfume's Pick Me Up
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vhfYis6VuXY
Röyksopp feat. Robyn - Monument (The Inevitable End Version)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zo6UnKr6Bwg
I enjoy the second one musically at many levels. The video is...less than necessary. But I definitely relate the crowd in the second.

That's art, musically and visually, that I appreciate.

Yes.
Good. Make sure there are no mistakes. If you have to, get the hotel a night early just to make sure no sudden personal thing keeps you from going.

You have got to be in countdown mode now. There's not going to be any living with you, is there?
