       Ha, speaking of 'Bad Romance', the band starts off the concert
       with this number. Coincidental? I don't think so.
       So in my two vain attempts at trying to land tickets to Roger
       Waters (and failed) and El Monstero (and failed), I happened to
       run across an ad for band... Post Modern Jazz. Then I looked
       further and they were coming to town... in a week. Long story
       short, I was able to grab front row seats at a 30% discount. I
       guess the angels were feeling sorry for me on the other losses.
       Beyond watching just a video or two, I didn't know what to
       expect. Over time, I'm liking the genre of music more and more,
       and decided to see it live.
       Last night was an absolute blast. Talented artists all around.
       Eclectic group of folks who play with each other and off each
       other. It was funny. It candy for the eyes as well.
       PMJ takes current songs, mostly pop, and restructure it into a
       Postmodern jazz sound. It works and it works well. Admittedly I
       didn't recognize about half the songs, because quite frankly I
       was not familiar with the pop song. Nevertheless, it sounded
       awesome. It was 1-1/2 hours of real fun. My wife loved it too
       and this is not exactly her strong suit with music. They had
       some burlesque, some tap dancing, IMO, almost stole the show.
       Yes... tap dancing that was fun to watch. She is beautiful.
       There must be several iterations of the band. Like Cirque du
       Soliel, they have troops that tour. The video below has several
       member changes from what we saw. Other video's the whole band
       and singers are different.
       Love the evening and they had the audience from the very first
       hello. Well produced and sounding fantastic. I can see this show
       getting big. Once it catches on, it could do very well.
