i was so embarrassed when i later went to Stevie's show here in '06 thinking it would be even worse, if that was possible. we're a fairly conservation city but omg Stevie's show went off. it made me so proud to live here
Adelaide? I kid, and I mean that only with kindness if so (half my family's from there and they've turned out pretty alright!). And clearly, the Stevie crowd was suitably into it, so thumbs up to them - it's always so much better when the crowd is awesome. Outside in the heat can't have helped the FM crowd.

I have to say that Brisbane crowds (generally speaking) are usually just as dismal as your FM crowd in my experience. I went to The Who on Tuesday night and pretty much everyone in the stands (and possibly parts of the floor) sat for almost all of the night, which I just cannot fathom. Of course, I was 4th row on the floor and rocking out with the baby boomers, so I had no issues (other than that I could see THAT well that I started to become rather attracted to Roger Daltrey's chest). But it ties in with the issue of floor seats - I've now become a floor ticket snob for everything.

And because I was originally in this thread watching everyone's awesome videos and reading all your wonderful reviews - again, thanks heaps everyone. The fantastic coverage of the US shows is getting me so psyched to see FM here (hopefully, fingers crossed!)
