Really quite spectacular, and done all along the Seine rather than in an arena.
Did you see any poo?

Yes, the pervert thing was really weird.
They kept switching to the perverts, but just for a second or 2 and without comment.
I'm not surprised that perverts are popular with that crowd, but they could do without them.
There was one comment about how there was a big tent, or something like that. I think Peyton Manning stayed out of that one.

There were several Steinways getting rained on like that. Plus one that was on fire.
Boohoo…

Vulgar and artless.
And that is the perfect descriptor for drag shows.

If they wanted to be fair and balanced, they would have mocked Mohammed and the Quran, right?
I don’t think they wanted or cared about being fair and balanced. Their intent was to gain attention and spark harumpfing indignation from certain groups and individuals in the West.
It appears that they succeeded in their demonstration of vulgar artlessness.
Personally I don’t like the lampooning of Da Vince’s art and genius more than anything else.
