Seeing Kanye, alone on a huge, slanted stage, wrapped in screens showing flying birds, angry waves, and drifting snow, it was hard to not feel a bit melancholy about it all. He gets a lot of slack for being a goofy, awkward weirdo, but thank God there are still many of us out there who very much value that sort of thing. A couple songs into the night, when he exited the stage and re-emerged wearing a yeti mask, the love I feel for him in my warmest of heart caves grew all the warmer. And then, as if to say "hey, look at my cool masks. I'm into masks now," he left again and came back wearing a mask decked out with a bunch of crystals.
