The lasers... who thought up this idea? "cheesy as fuck!" I agree.
Apparently I should've read some more reviews before going... I thought they'd have a huge screen as a backdrop with all kinds of visuals like back in 97... nope.. just those smaller screens behind Maynard... also pretty worthless.
The coolest effect was when all those screen went to static.
The bulbs on the backdrop are also lame.
Wings stunk.
46+2 was the best of the night and had the most crowd energy
If 1997 was a 10.. (and it was)
this show was maybe a 6 - if I'm being nice.
The songs off Aenima all sounded considerably better than anything off 10,000 Days or Lateralus.
Finally, maybe it was for the sake of Maynard's voice... but they backed the pace on a couple of the songs on the setlist.. which didn't go over well with me either.
I don't regret going... but if you're expecting greatness.. like 97-98... you'll be shaking your head when you're walking out.

you people are pretty retarded for the most part , the stage setup was awsome , they made everything blend in with the screens , so it looked like everyone dissapeared for a while
