I liked them when they first came out, but I saw them in concert with The Wallflowers a couple of years ago in St. Louis and Adam Duritz was complaining about how we weren't all standing up, like the crowd in Kansas City was the night before. They also did a half-assed version of 'Mr. Jones'. In short, I don't really care for them anymore.
Did you know that the bassist for Counting Crows wrote Rolling Stone a letter about how they weren't being fair in an article they wrote about President Bush? They published it, he said that he thought Bush was a great president and that Rolling Stone was doing their readers a "disservice" for only criticizing him."As long as the music's loud enough, we won't hear the world falling apart."—Jubilee

I actually won tickets to see them here in Seattle a couple weeks ago through a radio station, but the show was on a Thursday and I couldn't get the time off work :( So bummed I missed it. Enjoy the show!!0 -
Been a fan of them for a lot of years. I don't know a lot of people around my way that are still into them. But I listen to them all the time. They are a great band. I love august & everything after the most...but all the albums are great..Recovering the Sat. & hard candy are amazing.No need to be void,.. or save up on life,...
Got to spend it all,.....

I agree with this totally. I've been a fan since the first album came out and the first 3 albums were GREAT. but I hated "Hard Candy" and everything they''ve done since. the version of "Round Here" on that live album is great.0 -

Yeah the first live album they put out is great. I just got the Live at Hammerstein album yesterday and am listening to it for the first time right now. I like it a lot as well."We're fixed good, lamp-wise."0 -

I like "Hard Candy" but probably not as much as their other albums. I think Hard Candy is a great symbol for a memory."We're fixed good, lamp-wise."0

I looked at it but the tracklisting kind of turned me off maybe I'll put it in tomorrow at work.long road walker wrote:crows are amazing, cant wait to see them again, for those who dig em, CHECK OUT THEIR LIVE ALBUMS, SIMPLY AMAZING, AMAZING VERSIONS OF songs

Yeah I can see how the tracklisting would turn you off since there were a lot of repeats over the two discs. It is worth getting just for the first disc though. Songs completely reworked but still amazing. I love the version of Mr. Jones on there."We're fixed good, lamp-wise."0
