I probably didn't make myself very clear...I have nothing per se against the whole ass-shaking genre. It is the lip-syncing BS to which I object. Either you can perform, or you can't, and if you can, well, you should. Doing a bunch of dance moves along to a recorded, midified soundtrack isn't a musical performance. It is to real musical performance as WWF is to real wrestling. Looks kinda neat, but is there anything really happening? I think not.
Glad to hear I wasn't the only one who was totally impressed with Sir Paul's chops. And hey, SM...just how killer does one have to be to get a gig with the former Mop Top, anyway?
I don't know if his summer tour is coming to KC, but if so, I sure hope I get to see it.
