Exactly.

I mean, I can see how there is some lack of confidence, and how the band can get a lot tighter. That all comes with touring properly and this was the first show. I can't judge his guitar playing by the clips, but his voice wasn't very good. It had been better on the Sirius show for example so I am sure there's room for improvement.
Lots of it I guess is technical difficulties, which again, seems to happen to a lot of acts, especially when they play small venues. I saw Europe a couple of years ago in Shepherd Bush Empire and they had all kind of shit going on with their sound and instruments and even ended up making a DVD out of it which is brilliant, so am not much concerned with that. Also, the jamming will improve, I'm sure there will even be a noticeable difference tonight.

What bothers me is the setlist though. One song from the previous 2 records?!? ****in' kiddin me? When you wrote a masterpiece such as Stranger, you only play one song from it?

And of all the proper bands he could cover, like the Allman Brothers or Hendrix or Deep Purple, he does Oasis? ****in' Oasis? I won't even go into details...who knows, maybe he thought it's a shitty Beatles song or something like that, but no matter what Supersonic wrote there, even that 1 min clip I have heard of Richie doing it, still sounds better than that poser Noel. God damn it Richie, wake the hell up man!

Obviously...Who Says You Can't Go home? Not even worth mentioning it. Richie needs a kick in the butt for those two alone.

If he improves the setlist, I'm sure the gig as a whole will be much better when he plays London. That's a big IF though. And since I'm only doing the London gig, that's all I care about
