Yeah, I was pretty vexed at first. I really tried. But then I figured I'd seen them back in the day and they likely wouldn't have been as good. Of course, it turns out that they were better than anyone expected and the atmosphere at the gigs was apparently unparalleled.
There's a lot of musical snobbery around and I get that people might find them derivative - they're not insanely talented musicians and they're lyrics aren't the best. But some of those tunes are timeless and to be there belting them out with thousands of people just loving it would have been great.
Next time I'm definitely getting a ticket.
