There was also the quite appropriate speech:
"I love these people because they love us. And the ones that don't love us... **** 'em!"
Perhaps Jon is reading the reviews - or listening to his friends.
A huge fan e-mailed me today - he was there night 2 and night 3. He is not a fan club member and he doesn't post here - but he's a longtime fan. He asked if it was him or were these shows really weak? Or maybe he just wasn't as big a fan as he used to be?
Unfortunately for the band - many people are asking the same question.

It upsets me to read stuff like this about longtime fans questoning their love for the band anymore. However, I too have to admit the other night what I really liked about the band anymore. They are not the same band they were in the 80s and 90s and unfortunately, I was too young at the time to see them then.
