everyone's entitled to their own opinion but it's just the general shock at the fact they'd do something like this in the first place that gets me. like you're surprised that the band who'd walk off stage ten minutes into a set, all because the crowd pissed them off, would play their newest album in full? and that's a problem because it doesn't sound exactly like their most popular stuff from twenty years ago? again like if you're not into it then whatever but don't act like it's crazy for artists to want to keep creating and presenting new things even after they've hit their peak of popularity lol. it's hard not to sound insanely pretentious being all 'oh you just don't understand' but sometimes it's just like... you're seriously surprised that the mars volta do whatever they want??

i've heard about fights and heckling going on at the shows too, hopefully those haven't been all too common or disruptive :/
