Not what we expected
Anchors Aweigh的点评
点评：This show was highly recommended by our Newfoundland Tourism agent for Newfoundland music, stories and hilarity, so ofc we bought tickets straightaway since we were told they often sold out. Indeed, the show WAS sold out - the Anchor Pub was jam packed.
We learned very quickly that 'Newfoundland music' had a much broader range beyond sea shanties, Irish trad tunes, and Great Big Sea/Alan Doyle - did not expect to hear the extent of rock/country inspo that we did. Jokes like rubbing sore bums and the Queen were fine, just passé - they may want to consider updating their schtick. The audience was majority an older (white-haired) crowd, so the "storytelling and hilarity" might have resonated better there ... it was more of an 'amused smile' vs 'bust a gut' type of simple comedy for our group. We'd had more fun at Sullivan's Songhouse earlier (which was also much cheaper as well, though Sullivan's had only 3 musicians and needed less production).
That said, the Anchors Aweigh musicians were incredibly talented, and the drummer is amazing. The audience lapped up the crowd work at the end. when they tried to play a piece from every province/country the audience were from.
Do I regret going? No. Would I buy tickets to see this show again? Probably not.

翻译：我们纽芬兰旅游代理强烈推荐这场演出，因为它充满了纽芬兰音乐、故事和欢乐，所以我们当然立刻就买了票，因为听说票经常售罄。事实上，这场演出确实售罄了——Anchor Pub 酒吧挤满了人。
我们很快就意识到，“纽芬兰音乐”的范围远不止船夫号子、爱尔兰传统音乐和 Great Big Sea/Alan Doyle 的歌——没想到我们听到的摇滚/乡村音乐灵感竟然如此丰富。像揉搓疼痛的屁股和女王这样的笑话还不错，只是过时了——他们或许应该考虑更新一下他们的表演技巧。观众大多是老年人（白发苍苍），所以“讲故事和欢乐”可能更能引起共鸣……对我们这群人来说，这更像是一种“开心的微笑”，而不是“开怀大笑”式的简单喜剧。我们之前在Sullivan's Songhouse玩得更开心（那里也便宜得多，不过Sullivan's只有3位乐手，制作成本也低得多）。
话虽如此，Anchors Aweigh乐队的乐手们才华横溢，鼓手也棒极了。最后，当他们尝试演奏来自每个省/国家的乐曲时，观众们欣喜若狂。
我后悔去了吗？不。我会再买票看这场演出吗？可能不会。
