Watched it from up on the balcony just to the side of the sound and light rig and they were as good as I've seen them in recent years. Wish I had a clue what Mac was mumbling about, but alas it was no use. In all the years I've seen them, I think there was maybe one or two shows where I caught the gist of what he was saying. I'm convinced he takes great pleasure in making it extra difficult for the American crowd to keep up with him, but we all nod, laugh and clap none-the-less. Fantastic show.

(4) He joined him for SIX songs in State College! 3 on guitar and 3 on keyboards. it was awesome! i dunno why someone on the forum was moaning about Kelley being the support band for 'every' show...he was very entertaining, and i thought it was great that he was a fan, because he knew how to relate to the crowd! he's witty, and talented and a really nice guy! as for the Bunnymen, both NYC shows were great, but i preferred the 2nd night... probably because they pulled Crocodiles and Heads Will Roll out of their sleeves at the last minute! i'm so glad they're doing Do It Clean again too! Will was absolutely blistering on that one! it's good to have them back on form! :-) Red At 06:43 PM 5/7/2010, you wrote: >Well the NY show was great!

Damn David... you should have met us at Pete's Tavern before the show! :-( at any rate...i must be in the minority again, because i usually don't have any trouble understanding Mac!
