  1. Agree that the sound was a tab bottom heavy. I was on the floor, about 25 rows back, center section. I thought the crowd was appreciative, but kind of reserved...alot of sitting. Much more lively crowd in Chicago last year. But awesomely played show...I didn't notice any significant mistakes.

     

    I enjoyed the fake moustaches the string players donned for yyz...not sure if that's something they've been doing. Seemed to catch Ged and Al by surprise...in a funny way. I guess the guys sense of humor is wearing off on the fiddlers. The fake eyeglasses, big nose and moustache combo might be a better choice.

  2. Unless your Keith Emerson or Rick Wakeman, no one comes to see the keyboard player. Synths should just be appetizer, not the whole meal. I hated Alex's 'clean' sound on Hold Your Nose and Pesto. Sterile and neutered.

     

    Neil said they are lucky to breakeven on album sales and concerts are the money makers. That's opposite of how it used to be. So I wouldn't be surprised it they just release few new songs (4 or 5)...similar in sound to CA, do the R40,41,42, whatever tour and call it a day. It's getting late in the day to make another major shift in direction. There's certainly nothing interesting in current music that would influence them...unless you want them to play house music.

  3. I believe Neil said the music industry is flipped today. It used to be that you made your money on album sales and broke even on tours. Now you make your money on tours and hopefully break even on album sales.
  4. I voted 'ok'....some interesting songs, some waaaaaay overplayed. Whenever chicks and guys are in a band you always have too much personal drama and they take the cake when it comes to this.I find Stevie Nicks bleeting sleep singing voice really irritating. Lindsay's guitar work is their one redeeming quality.
