The setlist might be a little off-I was pretty drunk. The band sounded great... it was an older crowd so it took a while for some chemistry to form between the crowd and the band, but by the end, they owned the crowd. Sadly, most of the fans were there to hear the #1s from Throwing Copper. I was thrilled to hear shit town and mirror song, and voodoo lady was great, too. The
finale (Heaven) was very well received and they dominated the crowd for the entire encore, especially I, Alone and Lakinis Juice. Good show, a shame it took so long for the crowd to get into it. |

Live: out of the spotlight, but still relevant
By MELISSA RUGGIERI
More than 13 years after Live smashed through the wall of tuneless grunge with its hooky, yet brooding, rock anthems, the band still has presence. Last night more than 5,000 was a long way from the arenas and amphitheaters the band filled in its prime, that doesn't render them irrelevant. Yes, recent work such as last year's "Songs From Black Mountain" has been largely ignored by all but the die-hards, but those who bothered to give it a listen know that Live certainly hasn't faltered musically they've just been handed the fate of so many good bands and fallen out of the spotlight. Ironically, it was last year's "American Idol" with Chris Daughtry -- a doppelganger for Live singer Ed Kowalczyk -- that nudged the band into public consciousness when Daughtry swiped Live's version of "I Walk the Line" and failed to credit them. Last night, the five-piece band turned out that intriguing, moody take on the Johnny Cash staple, tearing into the musical breaks as a sweaty Kowalczyk crouched with his guitar neck pointed forward in classic rock-star pose. Fans had to be satisfied with the band's decision to present a career-spanning set. The thoughtful ballad "Mirror Song," from its 1991 debut, wouldn't sound out of place on a Kenny Loggins album. And, believe it or not, that is meant as flattery, as well as a testament to Live's ability to skew rough ("I Alone") and just as adroitly turn tender. Though a chunk of the Innsbrook audience appeared to be more interested in loudly socializing rather than paying attention to anything happening on stage, the faithful up front blissfully sang along with the punchy "Selling the Drama" and burst into shrieks at the first gently twanged guitar chord of "Lightning Crashes." Live might not be the hip choice at the moment, but from what the band demonstrated last night, just because they aren't in the limelight doesn't mean they've lost their touch. |

We had front row center right seats so the veiw didn't get any better (too bad sound system wasn't as good). Hard to tell if crowd was into it (the front row was). Some songs sounded great (Heaven,Lightning Crashes) and some didn't. It seems as if the guitar player is always having tech. issues (same problems last year at totally different venue). Only one encore? Adam tossed me his guitar pick at the same time Chad tossed drum stick which hit me in side of head and almost knocked me out. I think Ed saw that transpire and jumped down and shook hands with my wife and I so that was cool. All in all OK show (I've seen them better). |
