There have been threads on here in the past 'debating' the quality of CC live, and Adam in particular, but I really enjoyed both shows. As can sometimes happen in Sydney, the crowd were a bit crap at times (so many people only wanted to hear 'the hits' - the woman sitting next to me last night actually fell asleep during Friend Of The Devil) but the sound in that room is amazing. The band sounded great and it was cool that the sets were switched up a bit for both nights (not as much as PJ do but it's still nice to see different sets over 2 nights)
