as I was walking to the corcoran last night around 7:00 I saw a bunch of kids trying to find DAR and I was suddenly very happy I wasn't going there.
 
 no offense intended to those who did.

I would like your permission to use this line repeatedly when I go 'a wooing' tonight.

Anyone else get the feeling that CBV really wasn't all that happy to be there last night?

Was the "thank you for the tepid applause" comment an indicator?
 
 I thought they put on a good show notwithstanding the lack of audience appreciation.  I liked the visuals as well.

I was telling my friend that as I was waiting for her to arrive that the crowd was reminding me of a mall on friday...so very young
 
 I was kind of disappointed with the top-heavy set list off of good news...there were some of us there who wanted more of the older stuff, lol
 
 and yeah, I got the vibe that the campers werent really happy to be there.....but hearing take the skinheads bowling was worth it

Agreed. I walked in when they were making the powerpoint presentation comments (not sure how much I missed). But TTSHB was awsome. I started mothing the words and those around me just had blank looks on their faces.

god . . . you people need to go to concerts where laziness isn't an issue.  if you wanna stand during a show, because you like music being meant to be stood for and grooved to, then tell the old codger, a-holes behind you to stay home and watch vh-1, then.  concerts aren't the opera, folks.  there are seats at mci, patriot, nissan, merriweather, pier six, others.  how many people just sit there throughout the show, complaining?  dar is a great place to see a show, you underground "i'd rather be at a dirty club" snotty bastards, and the only time i sit, is when i'm tired of standing.  who cares what others think?  an usher told me to sit once at a show, and i pulled out my ticket, showed him my seat number, told him i paid sixty some dollars to be there, and i was going to stand if i wanted to.  if the people behind me wanted to complain, they can stop going to concerts.  he said nothing else.  you people have become slaves to what others think at shows.  "oh, he's dressed in a stooges shirt; he must cool."  no he's not; he could be a total dork.  "oh, i don't want to offend anyone with my 'not hurting or bothering anyone by wanting to simply stand and dance at a fricking show' attitude."  whatever!  go see polka music, if that is how you act.  they even stand and party down at country music concerts!  
 
 if some loser with a hat on backwards and a sam adams at the nine thirty club asked you to get out the space you are in, because they didn't like you standing there, what would you do?

Just saw em in Philly. I thought it was a really good show. Tiny Cities and Paper Thin were definite highlights. I don't think they played anything from Lonesome Crowded West. Would like to have heard Trailer Trash...

I went to the Saturday show. We definitely didn't get Trailer Trash. I do like how the balcony is 21+ and how they have servers bringing you drinks. I got there early enough to get a spot right on the railing, but would still prefer to be down on the main floor.

yeah, we got there ealy too and sat on the railing right above the sound board.  the servers were cool, but they got annoying after a while, since they seemed to all ask me if i wanted a drink every 5 minutes.  last night they played a good variety of stuff from Lonesome crowded west, moon and antarctica, good news, and some other randoms.  but if they had played shit luck..that would have been it....
 
 it amazed me that there were so many people moshing and crowd surfing.

there was also a fight in the crowd during CVB's set.
 
 david said he wasn't suprised that there was a fight in philly.  they replayed the video of a guy fighting while wearing a santa outfit at an eagles game again.
