I wonder if anyone from the production company actually takes a look at the view from various seating areas...


I highly doubt it. Were you lucky enough to have the huge white spotlights flashed directly into your eyes?

In Champaign, halfway through DMSR, one of the venue bouncers came running around the stage and pushing all of those spotlights back up towards the ceiling, because they were obviously one of those rare bouncers with common sense and humanity.

Those things were lethal...I literally saw a huge black spot over my vision for a good 5 minutes or so...I couldn't tell you if he took off his suit and fucked Rhonda while singing DMSR in Cleveland, because I only heard that baby.

How can you aim a high powered spotlight directly into an audience member's eyes, when the lights are literally 2 feet in front of said eyes? Not cool at all, man.
No confusion, no tears. No enemies, no fear. No sorrow, no pain. No ball, no chain.

Sex is not love. Love is not sex. Putting words in other people's mouths will only get you elected.

I've heard about NPG seat complaints but never really understood until this show. The sound was horrible from where I was and I kept getting lights in my eyes. So, I gave up my seat and somehow was able to sit in the club section and sat down there and really enjoyed the rest of the show. Kind of odd they did the acoustic set so early but I figured they were fixing the sound or something.
