how was the energy during the Dark Matter songs? YouTube videos seem like energy was solid but obviously can only tell so much compared to being there

    I thought the energy was pretty good, too; I was far from the only person who was excited to hear the new songs.
    All those who seek to destroy the liberties of a democratic nation ought to know that war is the surest and shortest means to accomplish it.

    The energy of the crowd was far more than I expected for new songs. Dark matter in particular got  a great reaction from the crowd and people around me were really rocking out to React/Respond.

    I thought the energy was good.  I'll be honest - I haven't listened to the whole album yet but I love the band and am usually stoked on most of what they put out.  Everyone around us was having a great time.  I'd say mainly 50+ age group which makes sense given how long PJ has been playing.  It was also great to see very few cell phones.  Folks would take a picture here and there or a short video but nothing like the younger bands where essentially everyone has their phone in the air.  I'd say 98 percent of the people there stayed for the entire show. 
    Excited for Missoula!!
