I wouldn't even care if Mac sounded like crap. If they performed Porcupine and he just went for it and the hell with the results, now that would be worth seeing.

I apologise, I'm deeply ashamed of myself.

You don't look very ashamed in that avatar, Dr. C :wink:

I'd go for a Bunnymen residency with a different album played each night, too. Well, maybe not if that residency were in Branson, Mo. :eek:

So I won't be dragging you to the Osmond Family Theater any time soon?

Seriously man, I am now excited about the show - between your review and the youtubes and glasvegas. And all the cool cats at the pre show meet.

fantastic! It sounds really great and dramatic. I'm getting totally excited about RCMH now. I'm sorry I missed out on RAH though. It must have been a very special experience. I remember when they were considering doing this in the Carnglaze (?)Caverns. I'm sure Liverpool will be very emotional as well.

i saw the camera back there too. i also heard it was being filmed. i really hope something turns up later, coz it went by so fast it feels like a blur. would love to relive it. i'm definitely gonna take it all in at Radio City!

yep. i was just thinking to myself that some people are still going on negatively even after all the mostly fabulous reviews and i think it's just because they're pissed off that the band really did pull it off and they weren't there to experience it because of stubborness. pity really. why bother hanging around just to be a put down? if there was ever a time to 'take a chance' on the band again if one were feeling ready to give up - this would have been it. for those who have gone, and/or are going to one of the other shows.....you are seeing something special. i'm glad i was there!
