 Bra??? I think it looks like an apron. Although it is too short/small for Adam.

A Chinese bra (dudou, pronounced doo-dough) is actually shorter and tighter. Here's a picture found on google ETA: the picture didn't show up. Here's the link ETA2: ok, still not working, need more practice.  ![]() |

I googled "Chinese bras".. chineseculture.about.com/od/artinchina/a/Chinese-Clothing-Dudou.htmWhat Is a Dudou and What Does It Look Like?The dudou (literally ‘belly cover’) is a type of old-fashioned Chinese bra first worn in the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) and then in the Qing Dynasty. Unlike bras today, thedudou was worn to flatten the breasts as flat-chested women were thought to be graceful while busty women were considered a temptation.A dudou resembles a small apron. Dudou are square- or diamond-shaped and cover the bust and belly. They are backless and have strings that tie around the neck and back. Dudou are made of brightly colored silk or crepe and sometimes embellished with embroidered flowers, butterflies or mandarin ducks. Some dudou have a pocket in which to keep ginger, musk or other Chinese medicinal herbs believed to keep the belly warm.  |

Thanks, Wal and Albiku, learned something. Regarding Shout. I felt kind of the same way as you did. Listened to it and loved Tommy's guitar solo the most. He nailed that one and I am not someone to easily say that about Tommy. And it is not because Adam was not great, of course he was, but I am not sure that in this case his clear and unobstructed singing style fit with the song, except for at the end, when the rock wailing started, then it worked, but the whole beginning was somehow a mismatch between song and his singing. That said, I like when Adam experiments and some things work and others don't and in the end it is his opinion that matters. Otherwise, I am since a while struggling with Is This Love. It used to be so wonderful Bob Marley swinging sound. But now, with Rick on the drums, he does not do the rhythmic delays that create that swinging reggae sound but rather does a straight 1,2,3,4, or something. Throws the whole rest of the group off too. If this version would have been the first time Adam had ever done that cover, I think he would have never gotten a news cycle out of it. The strange thing is, when they go into reggae sound during OOL, it is working fine producing those reggae rhythms. So what is going on? What do others think? Is this intentional to do ITL so differently? Or am I just imagining things? I didn't like this ITL so much either. Something about the timing wasn't right and the joy on Adam's face was missing. I did like 'Shout' the second time I played it. I'm sure the song will evolve more each time he performs it. |
