    In defense of the screens:

    - DTE with the original music video packs some punch...

    And against:

    but the Spawn video sucks. Also, it tends to get played twice. Time for a rest.

    Pro:

    Given to Fly was apparently amazing in Missoula

    Con:

    The unlimited hallway effect at the end of the show can distract from the actual stage.

    Pro: 

    They're trying something new.

    Con:

    Some of my favorite shows have been from the rear. SUPER close to the band too.

    🤷‍♂️

    Screens are awesome, Given To Fly in Missoula was an amazing opening with the drone footage. I’m good with small venues being screenless though because it’s easier to the band.
