I wasn't talking about outdoor venues. That's fine. It was that hulking tower in the middle and the general flatness. It just doesn't look like a good venue. I'm sure it's great for anyone in front of the tower. Behind it, you have to feel a little isolated from the band. You have to kind of look around something. I don't go to a live show to watch the band on a jumbo-tron. Hopefully it's better in person.

Agreed on those points. The ground doesn't seem to slope very much either for those way in the back.Eat Us And Smile - The Originals

This is the venue in Camden I'll be seeing them at. It was this image that I googled that made me decide to go for seats. The angle may be right, but the lawn vantage point looks to be a little too out in deep space 9.Comment

Got back last night from the show in Bangor and man...what a show it was. Too many moments to mention but they delivered ten fold. Dave was animated and there was lots of interplay on stage between him and Ed. Lots of smiles. Great crowd too...looked pretty jammed to me capacity wise. But when Dave got to Ice Cream Man and started dropping Stay Frosty I nearly shit my pants. Awesome...just f'n awesome! This is my third show since 2007 and the videos never do it justice. When these guys are firing on all cylinders...it's just monstrous..an unstoppable freight train.http://https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1NuS-nZD5oEComment

2 things Dave brings to the table..great lyrics and the ability to capture the attention of everybody close by..This is classic VH..no other band will ever be able to touch it.And let me add that changing the story to ICM every show brings a touch of mystery to the show..now lets mix up that setlist and throw in some one-offs..Comment
