I was the guy screaming like a banshee. Of course I was totally responsible for getting the pathetically lethargic crowd to realise they were in the presenceof greatness.Yes, I don’t get outenough, except when there’s a showthat I would regret, actually despisemyself for not sucking it up and venture into the unwashed masses.I wish I could say I am all wrong about people and their unprecidentedlevel of rudeness and ignorancebut alas it was there in full display. I was dumfounded at the level of chatter during the more moody low key and subtley lovely songs played. It was only when the obligatory “gee the shows almost overI better show them how cool Halifax is” scream for more time came that people paid attention even though they couldn’t shut up through two thirds of the show.But alas I did noteven let the street light going on and off get me down. I wonder if the band noticed the audience light level changing every fifteen minutes.I would do it all again though, for a show the calibre of Wilco.
“can u hear me now?….can you hear me now?”….
Great to see some vids. I couldn’t make it.. thanks Coast!
