Wow, that was incredible, not much to say really, it was cold outside and we parked like half a mile away (my friend was seemed to think that we wouldn't find a spot near the arena) we got in, after being patted down by security we made our way to our seats, I don't remember the exact set list, I wasn't stoned I just have a shitty memory, but some of the high lights were when they played Judith and Maynard said something to the effect of "Its the last show of the fucking tour, get off your ass and stand up" and "while your standing get naked" then everyone sung along to judith, before they played the Hollow, maynard said this is the last song, then everyone booed, then he said "waht you want us to write another fucking song on stage?!?" Paz and Billy were crowd surfing during one of the songs, and maynard had a can of silly string over his crotch shooting off into the crowd, all in all it was an excellent show, btw if you read this Maynard, have fun with your porno collection.

Just a quick review here...only because there probably isn't anything new I can add to all of the previous reviews. I just returned from the FINAL concert in St. Paul and I was blown away!! The sound quality of this show matches anything on their CD...it is a RARE treat to be able to experience the same quality in a concert. What can I say...A Perfect Circle show is...PERFECT!!
I only hope they return with a follow-up CD. I would hate to think that this was a "One hit wonder" :-( ALL THUMBS UP on this concert!!!

damn good performance........lots of goofy shit too since it was the last one. definately worth the money, but I have to question one thing: when talking about hollow being the last song, the crowd boo'ed, because they didn't want it to end (obviously). but maynard said "get out your wallet fuck! think I do this for free?" I am guessing he was joking as usual, because that would make all the "destroy your ego" from his "other" band a total hipocritical statement. you mean you would stop playing if you weren't getting enough money? I've been playing drums for 14 years this summer, and I'll never stop. I don't care if I ever make another dime as long as I get to do what I love. anyway, is there anyway to get a copy of some of the non-album tracks you did? there were a few I didn't recognize but really enjoyed. the intro to three libras was the best thing I've heard in a long time.

Wow, just got back from the show and it was amazing. A truly moving experience. And i mean that literally, most of the show i was being tossed about to and fro, but i loved it. I was second row, right smashed up against the kids who were hugging the railing. And guess what!!!!! Paz jumped into the crowd right on top of me. I got a big faceful of her hair. Wait a go Paz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My fav. of the night was Brena, great guitar work from Billy. Maynard was mezmorizing, as i've heard he usually is. He dawned the lighted underwear for the last few songs. At one point in the show, Billy and Paz hugged, and Maynard walked over and sandwiched Paz in, and then walked away and sprayed silly string from his penis area, and said "oh, that was great". Obviously hilarious. He also made the claim the Duluth, Minnesota was home to the world champions of anal sex. Some other favorites of mine were "Fuck Brittney Spears...in the ass", and "Going back to cali, cali." If you missed ton

The concert was spectacular!! I've been to many, many concerts through the years, and I'd definatly have to say this APC was one of the best shows I've ever seen, if not THE best. I realized last night that Maynard speaks like an innocent, sings like an angel, and moves like a man. Everyone did an excellent performance. I don't care about what Maynard was wearing (though I have to admit he looked yummy). I don't care about lights, ect... It didn't matter there. It was a very spiritual experience. Thank you for helping to heal me...if only I could do the same.... The crowd was wonderful, too, (even though someone burned me on accident). Better than the album!! Maynard's vocals cut straight through me to my heart and soul. At times I couldn't control myself from screaming out in the middle of a song. I wish I could see them again.

The show in Ypsi was truely something. I've noticed that serveral people have complained about the crowd "not getting in to the music." I felt this was one of the best crowds I've every seen. APC makes absolutely bueatiful music and to see crowdsurfing and moshpits in a concert like this is a living oxymoron. The show in Grand Rapids was terrible because of people going to see the show just because it was something to do or they just wanted an excuse to mosh. In my eyes the crowd in Ypsi, for the most part, was there to enjoy the music and show. Because of that, this was a truely incredible show. Thank you APC and everyone at the show for a great memory.

I can't believe all of you idiots that posted how last nights show was so fucking amazing. The show was tight, but APC sucked compared to their other shows. They fucking rocked out at Detroit State theater last summer and now they are lethargic and drone-ful. It's not that I want to disrespect anyone, especially APC, but none of the crowd even realized that the band was playing David Bowie. I mean come on, the kid next to me swore it was a bootleg new song. Anyways the crowd sucks in Ypsilanti, and if you want a real show come to the East side of Toledo to the Sports Arena and hear how monstrous we are even though the sound always sucks. A

I LOVE you, APC! You guys ROCK. And so beautifully, might I add. I was also lucky enough to catch the Indy show two weeks ago(which RRRRocked).Being my Husband and I have not lived in Michigan long,this was our first time at EMU Convo. Were we in for a surprise! And NOT a pleasant one. From the 'strong arm' tactics of the rent-a-cops, to the SHITTY acoustics ,to the" I've only heard the radio songs" plethora of angry fifteen year olds-we couldn't figure out which was worse. You know it's not like it is cheap to go see a show,but when you're twenty-seven years old and can't even bring your purse in and have to suffer being patted down by 'Big Betty' in order to even get through the door; it borders on the verge of insanity. How I long for the days when I could catch an awesome band at small venue! Did I mention the shitty sound? Josh's drums sounded a little flat and there was too much base on the mic's. APC put on a wonderful,spine-tingling show with so much personality and emotion! I
