rough and unready
by MistyRiverfan60 on 12/8/10Aladdin Theater - PortlandMisty River is a wonderful band. The members' voices fuse together to create beautiful, goose bump-popping harmonies. However, this particular concert the group seemed disjointed. The girls seemed tense and there was too much time between songs to adjust tuning on the instruments. The waiting seemed awkward, not only for the audience but for the performers. The event was hailed as a holiday concert yet the playlist was heavy on old favorites and not the songs on their Christmas album. It was clear that the girls needed some more time practicing their holiday tunes. The guest performer, Doug Smith is always a treasure to listen to and I will be visiting a few of his future events with the Trailband.
