I think that their shows prior to this year were lacking in a lot of ways. However, since James went through rehab I think they're cleaning up their act considerably. Not only did they play for so damn long with no real breaks but I don't remember James cursing once during the show.
From what my hubby says (he's seen them about 5 times now) that's not normal. He says generally James says fuck a whole lot during the show. Lars pretty much stayed put and did his role. He got out from his drum set occasionally to air out his balls over the mister.. LOL He never did any talking to the crowd though. A little boy that was about 4 or 5 crawled out of the center pit though toward the end of the show and sat on the edge of Lars' drum set while he was playing and was waving at all the guys in the band and making faces at Lars. It was probably his son.. but i'm not sure. I've seen a lot of their concerts on film although this is the first i've seen live but overall I was more impressed with their performance than any i've gone to.
I spent almost $400 on Fleetwood Mac tickets last year and for less than half that I got a much better show for my money with Metallica
