The moods have shifted. A short(er) chat dispelled all negativity. Whew. I was worried it would be a long drawn out process. I'm glad it wasn't because clearing that up helped me enjoy this past evening's event.
Woods, Piglet and I attended Joey Arias and Sherry Vine's Looking Back At The Future @ Barre at Vermont (or whatever it's called right now). And as with last Friday's show, it was phenomenal. But to be honest, it was a bit more enjoyable this time around due to the crowd. Many jokes were aimed at or about the attendees - such as Jackie Beat, Candis Cayne, Alexis Arquette. It was much more of a "family" feel. I think that always adds to the vibe of the show.
I hate to say it, but sometimes the San Francisco crowds can be a bit stuffy. I remember Jackie Beat made a comment about it once - saying something along the lines that (quite a bit of) people in SF are more sensitive when it comes to irony, and "offensive" humor. Regardless of the fact that the city is very progressive, the flipside is they are quite uptight. Overly PC if you will.
I'm just happy that Piglet enjoyed himself - she was a virgin to the sights and talents of Joey and Sherry. It was nice that we got to chat with Sherry and Joey again post show - even snapping a picture or two. Altho one of the photos I'm going to have to photoshop - Woods looks like she's stoned. Oy vey.
