They were supposed to be but we had a technical hitch...which kinda sucked because it took a lot of effort to set up the gag! Never mind though; on the plus side I wanted the mouths to move but the logistics of putting it into the build was too time-consuming, except we accidentally managed to do it anyway. So swings and roundabouts love

Yes... it was my opinion. Does that really need to be stated? A: No.
Tyroshai wrote:Obviously your post and what it contained is 100% more correct than other authors individual experience and subjective opinion of the show. Apologies for not realising this sooner.
Pick which you feel is most appropriate:
A) Are you saying there would be a problem if it was correct over other peoples interpretations? or perhaps...
B) Are you saying it's impossible for my interpretation to be better or more accurate than others? That other peoples are so great and with it that - mine could clearly never have anything over and above, or add an extra/new angle to that? or perhaps...
C) My interpretation of events is upsetting and unsettling your own thoughts and feelings on the matter ? And stopping them being 100% amazing and great and happy?
Tyroshai wrote:Again, you're clearly an expert and your "ratings" are the be-all-and-end-all judgement of how it good or bad the show was. Instead of (probably unintentionally) coming off as a bit of an entitled/elitist tit and instead of utilising the "you can agree with me and be wrong" approach, get over it.
Obviously I didn't say that but - your need to focus on this particular aspect is good for my own personal sense of self worth, as you are clearly feeling under mental attack of some kind by this slightly emotional outpouring?
If it would make you feel any better - you are welcome to perform your own detailed review with ratings figures also. Although I suspect the process may bore you.

I disagree for the most part.
Tyroshai wrote:Individual definition differs. You must deserve far more than the rest of us.
Perhaps I do. Or perhaps I just want to see him keep improving - which is less likely to happen if every fan and sound engineer alike is shouting something along the lines of: "YAAAAAAY, THAT WAS AMAZING, BWEEST SHOW EVAA!!!".
Tyroshai wrote:Now imagine you worded this better and actually made a constructive or remotely useful comment here and imagine how much more improved your overall standpoint could all be.
Now you're just entering truly pure emotional, reactionary mode for the hell of it, and everyone knows this not true. We have cures for that though - although I doubt the forum will permit all of them as it tends to work like an exorcism.
Tyroshai wrote:who wanted to hear those tracks live shouldn't be able to because it wasn't what you would've picked? You'd prefer a full run of Decon/SYL etc again? 'respecting'? Ironic.
Again - like the other person who had a disagreeable reply, you haven't been paying attention to the details of what I've said about what tracks I thought could have actually been played instead. Which is a bit funny given this will be only my 3rd post on the matter, and yet you have already provided quite a detailed and assertive response at this early stage, whilst simultaneously missing the very details of my own points you are attempting to address in your response.
Tyroshai wrote:Jesus...I hope the view is great from that high horse you're on.
The view is grand and mighty. And the sound is very good too.

Stating the obvious - albeit incorrectly. As a fan, I am entitled to my input on it, and if I was around and thought I could speak on the matter, I probably would have said that set-list does NOT look ideal for the context of the venue, and please abandon. Maybe there are some other fans lurking around who would agree.

A lot of the super aggressive stuff has been largely absent from his shows for a long time now
I think you are failing to see the grey area here so I will try again.
The Set-list, wasn't entirely NOT to my taste - I just think it could have been IMPROVED a fair deal.
I could easily listen to that whole set-list and pay to see it anywhere - but I would rather see it unplugged or in some smaller venue. I think the Royal Albert Hall is for showcasing a wide-variety of the best - and he didn't entirely do that in the second half, thanks to the fan-list.
Crushing was the wrong choice of word by me - and if you see my list of suggested alternative tracks, they hardly count as "crushing." E.g. Triumph.

Again, you are coming from a perspective of thinking and assuming I have HUGE, EXCEPTIONALLY high standards that are extremely hard or impossible to meet. Which would not necessarily be a bad thing at all.
But to set things straight again, I am informing those who disagree - that this is not the case. And that It is in fact a majority, non-professional mindset whose standards are stuck down with mediocre standards, and would rather not be too critical or "create a stir" in their minds than look for ways to improve things, and make the issue known.
So I repeat: I did enjoy it, else I would not have taken all the footage - it just could have been better, quit a deal better. That is my opinion, and I am entitled to it. But you aren't going to change my mind with non-intellectual arguments like "It's waz AWWEZSSOMZE man... why u creatin a fusss... just relaaaaaaaax and enjoy it maaaaan!!" (exaggeration obviously.)
