josevolution · August 2018

Takin a brake from the band is always a good remedy in MHO , i need new music to get me fired up about this band the live shows just don't do it for me at this juncture i hope i get it back at some point ....

Was wondering what other things people will find to complain.. There u have it.

I don't see it as complaining. I see it as one's opinion of the set list/show. Everyone has a different experience at a show and express it accordingly. Its Art, and people have different interpretations.

I totally agree. I don't understand why some people are so rude about others expressing their own feelings about something. Fans aren't obligated to only have the warm fuzzies. While I wouldn't have had a problem with this setlist personally (even though I would still really like to know why PJ is ignoring such a massive chunk of their catalogue), I don't see why people irritated by those who simply think it should have been better in their opinion. Is this some feeling of defensiveness on behalf of the band? I don't really think the band needs anyone sticking up for them like that. The fans are going to have different perspectives about shows and setlists. I think it's kind of mean and rude to insult these people for having their own reaction to a setlist. Calling them entitled is totally inappropriate IMO. Save that title for folks who actually deserve it, like fans who scam and bully their way through GA lines.

while there are some who come to the defence of the band as a reflex, it's much less than some accuse I think. I think it's more how it's presented with words like "pathetic" and "awful". Really? pathetic? Sorry, not seeing it.

I have a friend (same guy who hates all the QOTSA you love, LOL) who I can't go to shows with anymore. Every single time he's got some ridiculous critique of the show. After the RHCP show, I was on a high. He says "eh, Chad Smith's snare sounded too tinny for me, wasn't a fan of that show". It can bring you down as an attendee of that show.

I guess maybe it's also that I've only seen them 5 times, which is nothing compared to the majority here, so I'd pretty much be ecstatic with any setlist they played.

I would have loved hearing for the first time: help,we’re gonna be friends, comfortably numb and i’ve Got a feeling!!
long road into release....wow.

Awesome intro and awesome show.

The entitlement is a little much around here right now. There were rarer songs I wanted to hear, but not hearing them never ruined my night one bit.

They played for over over three hours. They more than earned the right to play some covers they wanted to have fun with.

Fantastic show and so glad to be there.

* Even Flow took on a whole new meaning for me listening to Ed speak to the inspiration for it.

First thing I said after listening g the story was even flow should be played in every fuckin show only cos of the story

Funny.

I kinda thought similarly. I thought 'no wonder they play it every show'!

I love how a fan gives an honest opinion bout a band who welcomes open dialogue and yet gets shot down, typical of fellow fans. The band coulda did without nearly all those covers. I mean white stripes, really? Why not cover soundgarden or totd or mlb instead of playing Baba O'Riley for the 400th time or c numb? I have an idea maybe play your own songs. If people wanted to see a cover band, they'd go see zac brown band.

And how about this insult i read on another thread:

i've never posted here, but felt i had to, cause y'all some spoiled ass mother fuckers. nit picking that the show was no good because you didn't hear a song you've never heard before. when you are actually at a show, and better man comes on, it's awesome. the crowd loves it. the energy is great. looking at it on paper, you breeze past it. but who gives a shit about the setlist. just enjoy the show for what you get, not complaining about what you didn't

I had no issue with the original post. there was no negativity in it, just an honest question/opinion. Many of the following comments, however, not so much.

it's funny you end with "cue the hate" when that's what most of your post contains itself.

My post was not hate, I don't ever hate. The fact that for a band with a deep catalogue chooses to do 9 covers is flat out absurd. Sorry for being honest and not a kissass. They can do whatever they want and they have that right. I love the who, they are my favorite band, but I'd rather pj play one of their own songs.

"Screw the covers! Unless it's from these bands, then awesome!" Some serious talking from both sides of your mouth here

Check out their setlist from citi field night 2, 12 covers. One of my favorite bands. i saw them twice over the years and the covers turned me off from ever seeing them again.

Kissass's always make me laugh

by your simple logic:

so if you criticize the band, you are honest.
if you take the band's side, you are a kissass.

since I've done both on multiple occasions, what does that make me? honASSt?

Well I mean it is the home shows, right? Why not honor hometown legends who have passed away?

You literally said that they should play their own songs and go see zac brown band if you want to see a cover band. Can't have it both ways.
