That is pretty much the point of my half-assed rant. I just love hearing/seeing them all. If Maynard isn't the same as he used to be and gives it 50% for us well paying fans, fuck it. *edit* That's not to say I believe he does. Any time I've seen him, I've not associated his demeanor toward fans with the effort he puts into belting out his lyrics.

Them playing Hooker and Ticks was taken as a statement by me, potentially specifically from Maynard, that he is playing the role of entertainer that has something to sell. We buy it.

Don't get me wrong, the glorious, triple layered, masterful composition of Adam, Danny, and Justin is what got me hooked on this band. My money is fully well spent just having a night seeing and hearing them perform.
