-## ☺ Notes ☺

-“Like a radio play” is about an apt a summary as can be offered. This wasn’t really a multimedia event where the focus moved between the visual and auditory realms. Nor did the music play any huge part in delivery the story. Instead, it served as pleasant background for Hunter’s classic rant. Sure, there were a few nice instrumental breaks, and likewise, Chloe threw a couple of good visual surprises into the mix, but really, it was like hearing a live radio play. Fun! And somehow, the event got stretched out to about double the length of the album. Funny how time bends when Hunter’s around!
