Old Time Radio

The concept of having live performance without visuals is a bit mind boggling. At the same time it makes you pay closer attention to whats going on. If i were watching a tv show but wasn't really paying attention i could still get the idea of what is going on because of the visuals. With the radio, if you werent paying close attention you missed some information. I really wanted to listen to one of the comedy shows because i love the work of Abbott and Costello. Unfortunately they didn't have any audio from there performance. I was able to listen to Weber and Fields routine, what did remind me of Abbott and Costello. It is simplistic humor which any age could enjoy. It was quite funny and could see myself enjoying it if our only form of entertainment was radio.
