I don't think you're the only one. I don't think the song went over well in the large open venues with that fast guitar and it being an unfamiliar song. For the fans who love Red Rover (like me
) it was one of the highlights of the shows on the 3rd leg.
After all, through the begginning of the tour, SG didn't go over well with casual fans (and many big fans). Most of them talked through it, went for beer and bathroom breaks. It was only by the last leg that a lot of casual fans started listening to SG...and that was in the front section, it got very quiet in the front area by the end of the tour. I'm not so sure the middle or back areas most fans gave the song the time of day.
