you know, it's amazing the kind of response you can generate by having a
slightly negative opinion of something.

gosh, could that, you know, be like, YOUR OPINION, maybe, just maybe? i
got one too, lets wave them around at each other! wheee! as far as my
attitude sucking... well, keep reading.

i don't know why this is so hard to understand. as i stated before, energy
can come from the crowd, the stage, or both. they also feed off each
other, so that when a crowd gets really into something the artist can feel
it, and vice-versa. have you people never been to a concert before?
sheesh! in any case, in my very own personal, humble, small and
insignificant opinion, i felt that there wasn't much in the way of energy
coming from either plaid or the crowd. which (i'll say it a third time) is
not to say that i didn't find the music EXCELLENT.

*sigh*. the MUSIC was exciting, but the performance wasn't, imho, imho,
imho. actually, now i'm being forced to take a position that i don't
even agree with - it's not so much that i thought the performance
wasn't exciting, it just wasn't *as* exciting as i'd hoped, or would have
expected plaid, two of my idols, to be capable of.
and just so you know, i was indeed one of those 6 or so people at the
front dancing. because that's what i like to do at shows - dance. pretty
crazy, huh? yeah, i'm a total nutcase. and for whatever crazy, nutcase
reason, i also happen to like it when other people are dancing (or at
least moving or SMILING even), because it shows the crowd is excited. and
maybe, just maybe, some of that excitement might be broadcast to the
artist, and they might play better, or do something daring or
experimental, or jump up and down, or whatever - but it's that dialogue of
energy (ooh, i should patent that) that's important. TO ME. so yeah, i was
dancing and smiling and all that shit - and i felt like i was one of the
only ones having a good time. so who's attitude sucks?
but hey, what the hell do i know? maybe there were multiple sonic orgasms
passing through the crowd while i was up getting a beer...
this is all very silly, of course,
