Zero 7, Sia, Jose Gonzales, Herbert and Gotan Project at the Hollywood Bowl.

Zero 7, Sia, Jose Gonzales, Herbet and Gotan Project at the Hollywood Bowl.
Wow. I thought I liked Zero7 before. And, I didn't even realize who Sia was before. But, tonight in Los Angeles at the Hollywood Bowl Zero7 and Sia just put in a performance like one rarely gets to experience. Just goosebumps amazing.
Sia told us that this was the biggest audience she'd played to before, and maybe I made it up, but it seemed like there was some aspect of real courage to her performance tonight, not like you'd know it from watching. But, it seemed like it took something for her to be as open, and real, and utterly there as she was tonight, and it was inspiring. Sia has something very special going on.
Jose Gonzales was excellent, too. Zero7 gets such kudos for creating the context and environment for such an amazing gouping of talent along with them.
Sia. Wow. There is just something about her delivery that is humbling. Some aspect of what she offerts is really tapping into that place genius comes from. She's channeling something uplifting and inspiring.
Herbert, Jose Gonzalez, Sia, Zero 7, Sia, and Gotan Project were great.
