After watching the setlists from the prior 5 shows, I had a good idea what the band was going to play before they took the stage. As the show progressed, I knew my hopes for something unique were early with a possible "Gloria" or at least "the Electric Co." What we got..."I Will Follow"...ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ My next hope was for a repeat of what they did in Omaha the show before with "Crumbs"...Well instead we got "All Because of You"...BORING!!! Thus the reason why I was unhappy. I am a setlist guy, this was my 3rd Vertigo show (2 in Vegas) and unlike what we got in Vegas, they really didn't do anything unique.
A funny thing happened to me as I was leaving though. About three different times I overheard other people's conversations and they couldn't get over how great the show was. I guess it goes to show you that one man's trash truly is another man's treasure. My gripe was that I was hoping for something special and I feel like we by and large got something very ordinary and run of the mill. But then again, the crowd was less than charismatic...so that may have had something to do with it!
