The cellist made the show a lot less enjoyable for me. Her demeanor made her look like such a venomous bitch, and made me totally uncomfortable. She rolled her eyes in the middle of a song. Who does that?

It was still fucking awesome, though. Opener was decent, too.
Cellist was pissed at the soundguy and it was hilarious. The whack parts was hearing the lighter flick when the guitarist on the left couldn't see his electronics, the price tag on his guitar, and not hearing the guitarist on the right, but definitely hearing the sound of a nylon pick hitting metal strings. Maybe it was some MIDI crap so it could sound like organ.

Fun show in general. They played at some planetarium on this tour which would've been better for the projections instead of having everything psuedo-sepia-toned.
