Emilie Autumn is a phenomenal artist, and the Bloody Crumpets are amazing together. However, I feel like this show was a mockery of what they can normally do, which I blame entirely on the venue.
The House of Blues is a terrible venue for a concert, plain and simple. The floor for general admissions is too small, and there are seats in the balcony from which a person cannot even see the stage. The stage itself is to short to accommodate the audience, making it incredibly difficult to see anything unless one is in the first two to three rows of the floor. Not to mention anything of the over-priced bars, the bad attitude of the security personnel, and the "skip the line if you blow twenty bucks on House of Blues merch."
I feel like a lot of the performance was toned down and cheapened by the fact that this was sold as an all-ages show. Not only did that mean much of the performance was either changed our left out entirely, it meant that the concert had to end early to allow the under-agers to get home before curfew time. Maybe that sort of thing is appropriate for some other performances, but for Emilie Autumn--who basically performs a musical burlesque show--it just ruins the experience.
