    I should have said that I completely agree with Paul's assessment of the title track from LROOE. There WAS another photo of the whole band next to the review briefly (in the 'reviews' section) - here's hoping for a gallery in the next day or two (the photographer took the photos in the 2004 gallery as well).

    Seriously, I got the impression that most of the negative comments were coming from people who attended the show expecting some Punk or Metal extravaganza.

    Most of the comments were good though.

    The comments relate to the Sydney shows as you can see by the dates. The SMH & Age sites are linked. You can see my 'review' at the end (by 'Julie'). I was also baffled by the 'screaming volume' comment. Didn't they hear the acoustic songs?

    Where is the full version of this thumbnail of Glenn? (Next to 'the Eagles live in Melbourne')?

    Here is undercover.fm's photo gallery at last, but the photos aren't very big:

    I am so grateful that I took my photos, even though not all of them were high standard.

    Well, well, what a surprise. More because of them just adding a song out of nowhere than that particular song, of which I am afraid I am not a big fan. I hope the audience enjoyed it. I don't know why Melbourne had to be last. I thought Sydney should have been.

    In that set the ratio of Don to Glenn leads is 12 - 7. I make no further comment except at the Sydney shows it somehow escaped me how few leads Glenn had in the first half.
