What They Sang: Some Gospel Crap
How They Looked: Aretha looked…robust and the guy next to her with the cow/flower print jacket was bald. It was hard to notice anything else with the glow from his head. Every three minutes, some new group with a new gospel song came out. Not to make fun of the fatties, I can’t help but point out that Aretha looked like a big ol’ banana.
Performance Value: It was a lot of praise Jesus and Jesus brought the sunshine and chorus line, bebopping. Throughout the whole, boring experience I kept wondering if I gave them a one, if people would think I did it because they were singing Gospel crap. The third group kept promising to satisfy me, but all they did was dry me up. To each his own, I guess. Perhaps, my expectations are different than theirs. Aretha came out next and made me want to pass the collection plate around my living room. I made a nickel.

Ashtyn is definitely the casual gamer in the family. A game fan since she owned an Atari, Ashtyn can remember when her brother rigged the television so he wouldn’t lose his Super Mario Bros. game. That is, until the power went out! A fan of all things Mario, Ashtyn is a Nintendo loyalist. She digs playing Mario-style RPG games, watching others play violent shooters (because she sucks at them), and playing casual PC games (like Wedding Dash and Cake Mania). As of now, she is into the Wii and Nintendo DS, though she’s certain the games for PS3 and Xbox 360 are more appealing.
Very Stupid comment. Crap is heavy metal and rock. That song was in the movie Bobby, which is a movie about the late Bobby Kennedy.
Next time you think about writing something put a gun in your mouth and do us all a favor.
First, it was an article, not a comment. Second, where’s you’re Christian spirit? Didn’t Aretha’s method of love, Jesus, blah blah, religious rhetoric get to you son? I guess you just didn’t feel the fever of her performance either.
