    Hey Amy,

    Love the song to bits, but the crowds were so unnapreciative of it in Melbourne in 03. I keep bagging them cos it's true, they sucked, and it was kinda embarrassing. Nothing like that MSG crowd on the dvd.

    Have to say I don't agree with you, was on of the highlights I've seen footage of the melb show I was at and the crowd seemed to be really into it, so I really hope they end it again with it, one of the best guitar pieces I have ever heard, or seen.

    Which of the melbourne shows were you at?
    I only lied because it was the easiest way to get what I wanted.

    Night 3, not the best seats though. Hope they announce a third show soon! Or a 10C only

    Yeah, I'm not sure how energetic the crowd was as a whole, but my friends who were in the nosebleeds could see us on the floor pretty clearly looking like we were enjoying ourselves. So I suppose we stood out a little in my section, there wasn't too many who seemed to be having a whole lot of fun. I dunno, aren't Australian audiences pretty laid back in general?

    It's much more fun that way, isn't it? Hopefully with a few of the nutters scattered around a bit this year they can encourage the others around them to loosen up a bit and have the whole building rockin'.

    Yeah...or have too many "inhibitions". I saw Davie Bowie in 2004....YES, BOWIE!!...and I got told to sit down or I'd be kicked out by a security guard. After 4 or 5 shows there was a chick in the next section and myself standing and going off and Bowie said to one of us something like "I like the look of that girl up there" and pointed towards our section. And straight after that comment the security guard stormed up and said a few words to me. But get this -- DURING THE ENCORE, my whole section and nearly every other section stood up and danced and laughed and jumped and screamed....and all looked like they were having a BALL!!!!

    My opinion...too fucking scared of what everyone else around them thought to stand and dance and jive for the whole concert. And they LOVED it when they actually got into it! Such a shame....

    i think im comparing our crowds to those in the states, where there seem to be more people familiar with the song and who showed a greater appreciation for it. i dunno, listen back to the boot, there's just not that same level of noise for mr mccready.

    98 crowds were better i remember.

    I've also been told to sit down at a show, but never by the security. Although at PJ make sure you're not in the aisle. I actually had someone tell me off for standing up at a powderfinger show. While she was talking to me Bernard told everyone to stand up and if anyone has a problem with it that he'll deal with them. She was using the same 'we can stand up during the encore' argument.
    I only lied because it was the easiest way to get what I wanted.
