had several thoughts yesterday
• the crowd seemed very hip/fashionable – no idea where that came from tbh
• loved to hear lots of classics played before during the dj set – baden powell, tim maia, bethania...
• loved the concert a lot despite a bunch of stuff hahah
• • kinda felt that sometimes drums/bass and some of brass went more jammy/heavy handed than the record. there's a vibe that is hard to achieve again on most of recorded brazilian music between 71 and 76
• • hated the way vocals were handed. I think the live mix is partly to blame – a very clean sound, which made it hard for vocals... they were almost struggling to get it out sometimes. the vocals (as most stuff again from the era) will be these lowkey melodies, hummed and harmonized. maybe some reverb would've helped here, idk
• • at the same time, the female singer was too hammy (she's also a former actress in a very, very bad sketch comedy show in Brazil, can't even believe that). like a very bad caricature of what emotion sounds like, we like to call this som de barzinho in Brazil
all in all thought, it was really cool to see and hear him so revered. his attitude through the concert was also a mix of cool/humble that was <3. and it was kinda cool to hear him attempt to do a small rap at some point hahaha.
ps. also got choked up by the homage the jazz is dead folks did for joão donato beforehand. amazing.

i noticed that too. just personally, the performance didn't deviate enough from the record for my liking, but then when it did it wasn't great.
