That’s really the key, isn’t it... The audience has a lot to do with how enjoyable a concert will be.

For instance, I like Primus. However, being a grumpy old curmudgeon, I don’t think that I’d have that good a time at one of their concerts, due mainly to the environment and audience.

On the other hand, I’d LOVE to go to the upcoming Yes concert here in KC. The “cheap” (a relative term) seats are more than $53 each, when you include the “convenience charge.” Though they now allow scalping, so I could get some pretty terrific tickets for only $170 each... Anyway, the audience at Yes concerts tends to be pretty mellow.

Oh oh... I'm talking to myself here... One name that I noticed is missing would belong to Buckethead. Now I'm not particularly a big fan of his style of music from his solo albums... I guess you could say that he's best known as a "thrash" player. But he's got some very interesting things that he's done with other players, like his work in Praxis with Bootsy Collins, and then there the stuff he did in Colonel Claypool's Bucket of Bernie Brains (Les, Buckethead, Bernie Warrell, and "Brain."

Though exceedingly weird, he's also quite talented and proficient.
