i felt that too, it felt like he really wanted to be there and was grateful that he was.

while that isn't a "problem" (i've never seen 1 band that many times, and would love to, sure!), but i think that's your problem. you're expecting too much. you aren't just realizing this nor accepting it for what it is, which is a showcase of music (regardless of how many times you have heard it or have seen it live) in a live setting with astonishing visuals that actually mean something if you know what to look for, or want to.

shit, the sole fact there was a bright green unicursal hexagram hanging in the middle of the ESArena was enough for me to come check out.

i think it's a false sense of entitlement, that is all.
