thats it. I'm sure I pissed some people off by coming off too harsh. Like I
said, it was great to see them live, it just wasnt a great show.

Having been there in Boston as well, I agree that they weren't exactly 100
percent tight, but by no means did they "suck." And, sitting front row left,
I'm quite sure Stuart and Isobel were not "arguing" between songs. The only
song that really didn't hold together for me was "Get Me Away From Here, I'm
Dying," which sounded like it needed a bit more rehearsal. I thought it was a
fine show ... refreshingly free of slickness and boring "professionalism." And
they don't exactly play mosh-pit music, so the complaint about not being able
to stand up is a real head-scratcher for me.
