Where is David,Tico and Hugh's intro?

Maybe I am missing something but at the Melbourne show the other night only Richie got a mention...and from what I heard the rest of them didn't get an introduction in Tokyo either?

Whats going on, when did that stop? At least they all stand at the front of the stage still after a show.

I noticed that too, no band intros at Melbourne. It had me hoping there would be another song or two after Twist and Shout that would have the intros.

Im guessing Jon just forgot.

Don't they usually cut the intro when they're working somewhere with a curfew?

I don't know, I had never heard of that before. If that is the case it's still not good enough...how long does it really take to introduce a few band members?

On this tour when they use AOD as the intro song, Tico and Hugh get left off as there is no place in the middle of the guitar solo to intro them, i've never seen nor heard Jon leave anyone off when Shout is used as the intro song, but I have been at quite a few shows where they don't do intros at all, and sometimes Jon takes a moment throughout several different songs to acknowledge one band member or another. I do think intros get left off if there is a time constraint, but then there are nights when Jon will do a very long, involved intro segment for the band, it seems to depend on how he feels.
