Re: 2006/06/21 - Rome, ITA - Foro Italico

Random thoughts:

Show time was supposed to be 2100, but I figured it'd be about 2120 before they came out. Well, 2150 lights go down. I knew this was a bad sign, as I wanted to hear The Pot and with the late start that wasnt going to happen...and didnt.

Concert started and I couldnt hear a damn thing Maynard was singing during Rosetta, at least with the megaphone. After that things got better.
Maynard said all of THREE words all night..."good evening" and "thanks" (in Italian of course).
The music was incredible IMO. Saw them in Faenza back in 2001 and not much has changed since then. Maynard on the riser, video screens...
If Maynard faced the crowd I certainly didnt see it! Didnt matter though as I was into the music which is the way they want it anyway.
Highlights for me were 46 & 2, Lateralis, Vicarious and the end of Aenima.
BTW- Danny and Justin do things with their instruments that humans just arent supposed to do.
