OMG I just saw the video of the concert

Or DVD, to be exact. Steve made a wonderful DVD of the concert with bonus features and slick cover and all that. Super professional. But OMG I watched it and realized that what I experienced and what I remember first-hand is completely different from what it looked like on the DVD. I thought I was more genki. On the DVD I look dorky. And the worst thing of all is that in watching the DVD I realize that it was MEEEEEEEEEeee who messed up the Kai to Ryu sequence! MEEEEEee! I just want to crawl under a rock and stay there. Aw, man! I thought it was someone else. But it was MEeee.

Sniff, sniff. I'm gonna cry.

But the DVD will be made available on line and maybe in a few local stores in 2006. You too can experience the power! The drama! The heart pounding rhythm that is EMERYVILLE TAIKO!

Or not.

If I can stand to look at it again maybe I'll decide that I need to work on my kata. And projecting. And anything else I discover--if I can bear to watch. Sigh.
