Enchanted

Last Friday we travelled to Lucerne with extremely high expectations and we were not disappointed at all but enchanted by a handsome magician. Jamie Lidell and his band were frolicsome and just extremely masterful. If I were a musician*, I would have given up after this concert, burned all instruments and would still be snivelling.

Das läßt sich in der Tat gut vorstellen, daß das beeindruckend war, Instrumente verbrennen wäre aber doch vielleicht eine Überreaktion, selbst wenn du Musiker wärst.
