I also made it clear that I am a huge fan of AE, and that she did a great job. I liked the show, okay? PB- I made it pretty clear I was a fresh observer.

I don't know if I can add, or refute, a single comment in regards to my opinion walking out of there. Although they were agreeably the highlight of the evening, I noticed a slower tempo on the "Aha..." cuts...did you? They used to RIP through those songs, and that was half of the fun of their old shows. Seemed like it was just another part of their transformation into an adult contemporary band, like U2. AE-

I had a totally different experience, but I am a totally different kind of fan...I won tickets to the show and wasn't really super interested in seeing KoL, considering I've never been a fan of Caleb's voice, but I left a convert. Even after arriving, I thought about turning around and going home...the Fillmore brings out the drunk bros for some reason, no matter what show happens to be passing through (and I for the record, I don't discriminate against bros, just drunk, stoned, annoying ones) and I wasn't in the mood. But what I liked about KoL was what I think you found to be a turn-off; I enjoyed their over-the-top performance, reminding me of a brief time in the 90s when arena rock style-shows put on by really talented bands (Smashing Pumpkins, Jane's Addiction, even Tripping Daisy!) was an acceptable way to perform. I relished in the guitar playing with their teeth, the fog machines, and the dramatic vocals. But as always, your argument held water, and I loved your metaphorical visions of you as an elderly man. Word, girlfriend. Nice work! Hardly ever do I disagree with you, Alex, but this time I have to say I did.
