Or maybe because they were awful live, I still love the albums though.

Jadetree is deaf, dumb and blind. He would rather play pinball.
 
 Everyone else said that the White Stripes were great live when they came to 930 last apart from chadboy/evilsatan.
 
 But he is in love with Dolly Parton so its maybe not so surprising he wouldnt like them.

Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot I have to agree with everyone, and I am sure they will be EVEN BETTER in that gym.

I thought the 9:30 show was great, as did all the people I was with.  I think Jadetree is the first naysayer I've heard.
 
 Bad jadetree.  non-conformity is Unamerican.

Oh Jadetree, just keep listening to Phish will ya?

[markie]

actually, sorry to be so flippant.
 
 you said,
 
 "Or maybe because they were awful live"
 
 I think it is then reasonable to say that that was not a consensus opinion.
 
  Do you not think that is fair? If not you are saying that you have become the sole judge of the quality of a concert?

Fine that is fair, but just so facts are straight, I was with two other people who both thought it was crap as well.  Probably a case of expectations that were too high, and a show that came off to me as a novelty act.

i'm guessing this will be an all-ages show as well, eh?
 
 btw, i hope you all know what a saturday concert means?

((((Maybe the other two people are easy to influence?))))

 n. pl. nov·el·ties
 
 1.   The quality of being novel; newness.
 2.   Something new and unusual; an innovation
 
 Actually I do think they are a novelty act in the way you probably meant.
 
 Which if you accept that they are a novelty act means you would be more likely to enjoy their show.
 
 But its all just entertainment, right?
