Uh, yeah, I know. I've attended it. I've also attended the Tridentine. They are entirely different. If you don't think so then you need to go back to a Tridentine and refresh your memory.

Grew up with the Latin Mass and, at the prompting of someone in this forum, returned for a visit last summer. Like a trip through a time machine. Didn't like it back then or now. It is a non participatory mass, where the priest performs the actions and the altar servers give the responses. I need to be a part of the mass, saying the responses, singing the music (NOT the contemporary stuff), and responding to Christ in the Eucharist.

The mass I most want to attend is the one on EWTN. It retains ALL of the reverance associated with the Tridentine mass, while following the format of the Novus Ordo.
