The ol' spectre of Hindsight's 20/20 is rearing his sinister, incorporeal head again. He's trying to tell me, I think, not to miss the rescheduled Christina Aguilera/Justin Timberlake“Justified and Stripped” double bill at 7:30 p.m. Friday in the Hartford Civic Center, that I'll regret it forever.
I had similar premonitions before: The Stones at Altamont, the farewell “Lamb Lies Down on Broadway” performance by Genesis, and the Sex Pistols' 1978 musical brouhaha at the late, great Longhorn Ballroom in Dallas.
I didn't go to any of those shows, and look what happened: they all became legendary.
Hmm. Well, I think I'll take my chances and notsee Christina and Justin's respective, well-choreographed extravaganzas, which were cancelled a week ago after structural flaws were detected in the stage set.
Granted, for followers of this exalted genre, you'd be crazy to miss it. Both stars' latest CDs — Aguilera's “Stripped” and Timberlake's “Justified” — have gone double platinum, and at some point, the stage will surely be consumed by young people wearing little more than underwear.
I can't, though, think of even one possibility that would transform this gig into one of those Big Shows of Yore. Unless Britney shows up wearing a hockey mask and wielding a harpoon.
Christina Aguilera and Justin Timberlake co-headline a show tonight from 7:30-10 p.m. in the Hartford Civic Center. Tickets are $39.50, $52.50 and $62.50 for the all-ages show. Call (860) 525-4500. |
