Anybody go to this show?
I was there last night. Rival Sons were awesome and a tough act to follow, in my opinion.
STP had some technical difficulties - which didn't help.
Not sure what happened early in the set but Dean and Robert were yelling at each other on stage.
At one point, one flipped the other one off.
You can't do that shit. Poor form.
I get it, you can have a bad night or whatever, but they should keep it together better than that. The moment the crowd is aware, you've failed.
As for the actual set, it had its moments. When they were on, they sounded good (vocals were a little low, where I was). Sometimes, they felt/looked bored though. Maybe it was the off night. Also, they take way too long in between songs, especially when nothing is being said.
Lastly, they should really play more new stuff. I know we've discussed it ad nauseam, but seriously, even Jeff performs his songs differently. You see he's way more engaged. "Roll Me Under" just had a different level of energy.
Rival Sons are supporting a new record and they played 7 songs off their new album - and that was in a shorter set than STP.
