Don't leave....it was just an honestly expressed opinion on the lack of
interest shown by the crowd at the Lomax in Liverpool. Having been to
three
gigs on the trot I felt in a position to make the comment. Leeds was by
far
the best of the three. The Planes need our money, love devotion and
cheapest
and most importnat of all our praise and support. Not lots of peple with
their arms crossed with "go on then impress me" attitudes. I remember
planes
gigs when half the audience's arms would rotate like helicpoter blades on
numerous occasions. I was so disappointed to be the only person giving it
some emotion and passion at the front of the gig. Maybe we're all getting
too old. I'm 34 and I'll still be dancing to the planes on the way to the
grave. As for regional prejudice I live and work in the north west - I
wouldn't if I didn't have a lot of time for scousers and mancs
alike........
