We were about fifteen feet right in front of Bjork last week over at Deer Lake Park in Burnaby. This is the place where Q and I used to go to ride an old fashioned carousel for a dollar a throw. It's a quiet suburb of Vancouver. So the Bjork show was appropriate and ironic all at the same time. What looks large at a distance, close up aint never that big...Quick...what Bob Dylan song is that?
Anyway. I told Q I can't be a fan of Bjork because fannification is a kind of diminished state. We really enjoyed the performance. For me it was a crafty and classical program of wonderful songs. Beautiful horn section, scientific drum kit, mysterious knobs and dials, a clavicle, and a simple but effective lighting design.
