The Philadelphia Story
:: Posted by Sid Smith on Wed., Nov 7, 2007
My thanks to Jimmator for offering his thoughts on Monday night’s concert.
“Just wanted to offer a few notes about the Monday night concert in Philly for those interested: The venue (essentially a dinner theater) posed obvious challenges as far as audience noise, but people managed to eat rather quietly (at least up in the mezzanine where I was.) Shouting was another matter. The first encore was "Vrooom" complete with Coda. After the second encore the group (with Fripp) walked to the front of the stage and played a song without amplification. The audience remained quiet throughout. This was short-lived. Immediately after the applause began, a much too exuberant bearded fanboy in the front row felt inclined to shout out his personal thanks multiple times, even after the applause had died down. It appeared to me that the group was about to perform a second song "acoustically" (if you will) because they remained still, waiting. Fanboy ran his mouth. Fripp made a motion like he was about to lead the LCG in another song, but then smiled and bowed out (prompting some audience members to laugh.) Two points regarding the above: there was at least one person in attendance who would have very much liked to hear more and could bear keeping quiet to do so; never assume a smile is a good thing. Aside from these audience issues, the concert was wonderful. Fripp has every right to be proud of the craftiness that the LCG displayed.”
