More non-sensical drivel by AlainPP. I usually scroll past his/their reviews but this one piqued my interest since I attended the tour the live tracks were drawn from. The review really is just utter gibberish, even allowing for possible language difficulties??!! (as many have said before there it does seem that a few people use this nom de plume and the level of absurdity varying accordingly).....

Alain himself confirmed that he uses machine translation. https://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=133946

Review is in Spanish. Google Translate still leaves it with some sentences that don't make sense.

I google translated and did some editing. Other than adding a "t" too "Foxtro" and a note at the end on it being translated and only submitting reviews in English, the only thing I changed was what came out for lyrics. I changed "there's a fat woman outside the room" to "There's a fat old lady outside the saloon."

^ After looking at the last 50 reviews. I see there are three by him all in a row, so off some other platform I would guess rather than written for PA, except that minimal effort went into the reviews so maybe all written for here after all.   I could just delete but this once I will translate all three. Any more will be deleted that are not presented in English. I PMed the user who I saw in the forum.
