Hello,
Just a quick topic to the Aussies here, or anyone who has seen a show in Australia...does anyone think the Aussie crowds can be a little lame?
Yes, ZOO TV Sydney shows a great crowd and I was at ZOO TV Brisbane and they were good too. However, in recent years the crowds seem to get worse and worse.
Examples:
U2 Popmart crowds werent too enthusiastic. I was told to sit down on the field as the people behind me couldnt see too well!
The Stones: once again told to sit down cos people behind me couldnt see. I know, I know...the crowd for The Stones are old but some of my family went to the Montreal show and the oldies were up dancin' all night!
REM: saw them in Brissie this year and it was most definately THE worst crowd I have been in. I felt ashamed as people sat at the front (even during the most popular songs) and then to my astonishment, people began to leave during the last song (Man on the Moon too!) to beat the traffic! How embarrassing!
I really hope this isnt the case when U2 grace our shores in 2006.
