He takes it off because he thinks he's the second coming of Prince.

No pissboy, That's why YOU WON'T take yours off....you probably look a little to much like the skinny little purple man, don't get the two confused.

Can we keep the bullshit banter in the other thread?

Well I just got back from the concert, royally pissed, but I guess it's my fault. They wouldn't let me on the f%^#in field because I didn't have a "field general admission" ticket, I had a regular general admission ticket. When I ordered tickets GA popped up and I assumed that was it. I mean general admission is general admission, not for the triple plays.

Long story short I was stuck in the stands where it completely blowed. I felt like I was listening to one of their concert recordings while in the hot outdoors. I could see them, but it didn't have the vibe of a +Live+ show at all. People around me were talking, not paying attention to the band, or being considerate at all.

I went with two friends and one of their boyfriends, and we had two field tickets and two GA stands and they wouldn't let the others come down too, which sucked. I'm surprised, because it wasn't that full down there! But we had fun on the field, the concert was much better I imagine down there. I didn't feel too bad about one of my friends having to stay in the stands because she forgot her ticket and we had to drive back, and we completely missed Collective Soul (not an uncommon situation for her). Her boyfriend was driving like 40 miles per hour until he started seeing how irate me and our other friend were getting, so he started to drive faster-- so thankfully, gramps didn't cause us to miss Live or Counting crows. The friend I was on the field with is crazy about Counting crows, and I love Live so we had a blast! I've seen counting crows with goo goo dolls at riverbend and I thought they sucked completely then, but were pretty good last night in comparison! I thought Live did a great job too. I'm sort of dissapointed I didn't get to see Collective Soul. Overall a decent concert, shorter set lists suck completely though!! BTW whoever complained of the shirt thing is crazy

Collective Soul was exactly as expected from the reviews on this forum. Their lead singer did the cheesy"Tell your friends and family you saw Collective Soul line." They had a few rocking out moments, but in all honesty I couldn't gauge them well at all from my shitty stand seats. I couldn't even focus on +Live+ so you can imagine my lack of concentration with them.

+Live+ performed an average set, pretty much the same set list from recent shows. I'm sure it was a much better experience closer to the stage. Ed might have been reading this site from his hotel room because towards the begining of the show he asked if it was "Hot enough, should I take my shirt off, that's not illegal here is it? He didn't take it off during LC, which was good cause the people were into that song. He took it off between LC and LJ.

That's all for now, I can post more details about the show later. I'm off to Photoshop a ticket that will get me into the field tomorrow.

Sorry to hear you had such a bad experience. I was looking for you on the field. I submitted a review and posted pictures on myspace of all 3 bands. Check them out if ya want! www.myspace.com/jengarynatsarah
