Packed house. I've seen BJM 3x before tonight and always go with trepidation that Anton will act out. 3x before he didn't, and put on not only shows but HAPPENINGS. Blow your mind music and band. Tonight he brought Anton the Jerk, unfortunately, and while I'm sympathetic to the ravages of mental illness, he was just a jerk tonight. The first half hour was something from the the Dirge Tour, and even after they started picking it up, he was forcing the band to play like 1/2 beat below tempo. All his control-freak demons were at play. He took minutes between songs to change guitar strings, have huddles with Joel, and - unfortunately - insult the audience with his replies to loving, caring comments. Audience members who love this band and paid $100 dollars a ticket. I left the show early.
