Very interesting observation from Shidoobee poster Waterpup. I think we can relate:
"unfortunately the the show tonight re-enforced what I said about pulling gems out. The dickheads didn't know the songs or get what was happening, well over half of my section (I had an incredible seat thanks to StoneBeatle) sat down while the magic was happening and gave only a polite applause after it happened. I promptly called them all dickheads, I'm sure they thought I was an asshole but whatever."
'You throw your pearls at swine'.
Greatest rock n roll band of all time, but they have some of the worst audiences in the universe.
In fairness, a lot of that is self-inflicted.
What kind of people pay a week's salary for a concert ticket to see the Stones - but DONT know songs from 'Sticky Fingers' ? Their biggest selling record from that classic era. Its just as well Jagger introduces Taylor every night. I genuinely believe most of these people wouldnt know who he was otherwise.
