2009-07-10 - Orillia, Ontario, CAN - Casino Rama

[T-Bone]

Sounds very similar to the Cincy show.  Rob was the most active member, Scott said little to the crowd...but, still one heck of a performance.

By the way, who opened at this show?  I think they have been having local bands at the majority of shows, but I may be mistaken.

Rob was very interactive with the crowd last night at Bayfest (sarnia) I like the way he plays anyway, but he's there giving the heart thump to people who are singing along and stuff liuke that and just all over the stage.

I thought Scott was doing just as good a job as I've seen on some youtube vids Ive watched. I was either closer drive to Casino Rama than I was Sarnia, but I just figured the casino show might have been less of a 'show'

Heres a review .. this reviewer always has put STP down, mainly Scott, in many other reviews Ive read from her .. and she seems to do it again with a lame rating of 3.5 out of 5.   You'd think by reading what she wrote that the show was better than that but as I said she's one of the critics that dont want to admit that  STP is better than good.

I didn't think the reviewer was putting STP down, just eager to hear new music from them.

agree with you wg23... not a bad review overall. Obviously we all want to hear new music so the 3.5 out of 5 is fine. Looks like they're sticking to the same setlist for all these shows which is disappointing.

good show, glad to see they played piece of pie

also surprised to see that scott uses a teleprompter, you could see it if you watched the video screens in some shots.

He admitted to this once at a solo show in the Borgata. He explained that he never knew that Frank Sinatra used one and couldn't understand why. He said that now because he has so much material to remember that he uses one.
