    For me the sound is far better outdoors.   I've come to think the reason is all the fan club seating.  It seems the entire crowd knows the words to all of the songs and the singing makes it harder to hear the band.  I am not knocking the fans, i too sing a whole lot at shows and so i didnt really notice until i brought first timers.  I started to listen for their perspective.  Twice i thought there was something really wrong with the sound or with my ears.  those were indoor shows.  Ive since been to a few outdoor shows and one more indoor.  The outdoor shows sounded great which ruled out my hearing loss, and the next indoor i couldn't hear as well.   Anyone else experience this?

    I personally cannot stand outdoor shows. I don't like warm weather, and outdoor shows are always in the summer. Too hot. And they usually have portapotties instead of real washrooms. Yucky for women. Also, I prefer it dark for shows, and most outdoor shows start while it's still light out. Indoor shows all the way for me!
