Definately was interested going into last night to get the live intepretation of the album. I thought the first couple of songs were pretty mediocre. Though, from this point forward the night had a very good vibe I thought. What I really noticed was how I liked a few more song more after hearing them live then the album cut particularly Paralysis and then how the live version wasn't as good as the album cut. I thought Atlanta was just OK. I may have built it up too much w/ the anticipation.
Saw Scott on New Years Eve with STP. Seemed different last night. I thought he sounded solid. Just felt like something was up. The VR cut was a nice suprise. Although, I did have my hopes up to have a special guest being in LA. I thought it was 50/50 Robert/Dean or Kretzel would have stepped on stage. Or maybe Slash or Dave.....Would have been a nice gesture that all was OK in these camps. Overall a solid performance.
