And while anyone's review of a show is generally welcome, on the blog and elsewhere, I think that the RECAPs are best when they're written by someone who was in attendance. As others have said, the energy of the evening is a major part of the magic, and does often influence the music. It's a feedback loop. Beautiful thing.
Not singling out @InstantEffect, as many others have expressed this sentiment, but the funny thing about it is that it is almost always in response to a lukewarm/negative review. People rarely seem to mind when a positive reviewer wasn't in attendance.
