I thought that the crowd was into it. But alas everyone has different perspectives. I was at the concert. I thought that the crowd was into it. But alas everyone has different perspectives.

You should do your research and explain why you feel the way you do about a particular show. See this Pitchfork link for the proper way to how to review an artists material to gain respect. http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/article/record_review/38853-shine-on Wade Yes I agree with Pitchfork.

Phoenix is a big place, so it's probably a luck of the draw crowdwise. If you are standing in the back, then yeah, it'll suck. hmm most of the crowd that was around me was pretty into it.

Please do some research before you write a concert review. Yes, it may have been awesome, but you failed to explain why it was such a fantastic show. There's only so many times you can say the word awesome. And your description of why Free Blood (the opening act) "sucked" is so unconvincing. I thought Hot Chip failed to live up to their hype live, personally. They weren't engaging to watch, and their live renditions of their songs sounded too contrived. (And the crowd vibe was a bit of a downer.) Consisting of 5 members, you think? Please do some research before you write a concert review.
