[Trash-talk] abandoned pools opinion on Garbage and their audience

I was at the Dallas show. It didn't seem like a bad
night to me. What exactly is that Tommy expecting? It
wasn't an Abandoned Pools concert, it was a Garbage
concert. The only thing I knew about them was that one
semi-hit they had last year. You can't expect someone
to like something so fast. 

The little problems later that night weren't that bad.
So Shirley ripped her pants, she was back in just a
few minutes. And the power, they only lost Steve's
side of the power. Duke still managed to play Wild
Horses on his side. They make it sound like they need
machines to play the music for them. Duke can do some
really cool solo's on his own, like War Pigs. 

That guy from AP should only be so lucky that he got
to tour with 4 of the greatest musicians on the
planet. (5 including Daniel) When is he going to make
another hit single? We'll probably never hear from him
in quite a while. They only song they performed that
night that I actually liked was the Army of Me Bjork
cover they did. And I only liked it because it was a
Bjork song. I should stop ranting now.

Oh, Michelle, I really didn't see anyone
taping/recording that show. I guess someone was there
because I did see video of Shirley when she ripped her
pants; but I have never seen a complete video of it.
Perhaps there is video, somewhere. I constantly do all
night searches through search engines for Garbage
videos. I'll let you know if I find anything. See if
there's anything on the site you don't have:
