That's a great anecdote! The last time I caught them live was in Northampton Massachusetts at the Academy of Music theater..a beautiful old venue but acoustically not the best. It was a strangely awkward show, maybe it was just me, but they seemed a bit shy of the audience and had some tech glitches that threw a wrench into it (not their fault, but things got a little panicky onstage).
Guess it was just an off night. I've got a fair number of their CD's and like I said before, when they are really 'on' they can be pretty majestic.
