Overall the show last night was freaking awesomel. They had a laser show like Pink Floyd, the entire stage was illuminated white. They kept showing trippy imagery on the floors and walls. It kind of reminded me of that sabbath show on bbc with the trippy back ground. You OLd timers proabably know what I'm talking about. Visually the show was proabably the best I've ever seen.
Musically, they tore it up also. Although they could have standed to play a little more older material. Other than sober, everything was from AEnema and beyond. Thats not a bad thing though. All those cats are fantastic musicians. Watching Dany Carey give a drumming clinic was definately an honor for me.
The only thing that urked me, now maybe Spock or Taco can back me up on this, was Maynard talking shit to the very few people moshing. I've been to T00L shows before so I know that moshing is frowned upon by the band and most fans. But for the OLd school T00L fans who actually listen to metal, its a compliment.
Quote from Maynard:
"What are you guys playing rugby out there? Or do you just like touching other sweaty men? C'mon guys they're just rock songs."
As a long time concert go-er and person who mosh's, I found that very insulting. If your music makes people express themselves in a physical manner, and that makes you angry, just ignore it. Don't talk shit to your fans!!
Other than that I thought it was a fantastic show!! One of the best stage shows I've ever seen.!!
