sandrylene, who knows the most about the music, have already written up excellent reviews, and before you go any further you should read them:
Shannon the historian's review
Sandry the music major's review
But now that they have done that, I thought I might as well offer up my layman's-eye summary of the proceedings!
The short version: the experience was certainly interesting, but I think my main feelings throughout the show were a.) confusion and b.) GIANT CONTACT EMBARRASSMENT.
( The long version, featuring the Nixons' inability to tell fact from fiction and too much demonstration of Mao's sex life )
