[quote="t Silent t"][quote="manny2287"]I went to the 7/12 show in nyc and it was amazing I saw singing along to all the songs. I was slightly disappointed that the fans only knew their flcl songs. Like when they played third eye and freebie honey the crowd wasn't really rocking. Still an awesome performance better than 2011 imo[/quote]
The tour is pretty much sponsored by adult swim/FLCL, right?
Freebee Honey, The Third Eye, TYMT, etc are now considered part of the FLCL soundtrack, right?
FLCL is the reason they have so many international fans, right?
FLCL pillows fans vs just pillows fans - I used to have that mentality, but I wanted to stop thinking like that and just be grateful I can enjoy the pillows with so many other people.
As long as I'm enjoying the show and other people are enjoying it as well, no reason for me to get disappointed (except, why no My Foot or Shiroi Natsu).
But I do get fucking frustrated when someone is disrespectful to the opening bands (e.g. complaining very loudly that ' "we" are only here to see the pillows so hurry up with your set ', groaning after the opening bands start to play a new song, requesting Cullen Omori to play Crazy Sunshine...wtf). These people are the kind of people who heckle at comedians during their standup sets. And I pretty sure Cullen Omori cut his setlist short when he felt the bad vibes from the 7/13 Irving Plaza crowd (not everyone, but certain obnoxious and loud individuals).
Anyways, I went to both NY shows, and the area around me were rocking pretty hard to Freebee Honey and The Third Eye as well as singing along especially during the choruses. But I was near the front, so a lot of people around me are die-hard pillows fans who probably waited in line for half the day. If I was in the back or on a balcony view the crowd as a whole, I'd understand what you mean.[/quote]
Ah didn't know that happen to Cullen Omori at iriving plaza that sucks
Yea the front crowd at Gramercy were rocking hard. I was sitting in the back this time and the people there were not hype at all. But yea, I try to avoid being snobby against the FLCL pillows fans but sometimes it rears it's ugly head
