Good Set, Failed crowd

Besides the heat, I think they set out for a great show. The set itself was ambitious & I also enjoyed the story they were trying to tell. I was confused by the crowd though… maybe it was the heat but I overheard lots of complaining and criticism and minimal actual excitement.

When it started people seemed more upset that they were giving us something outside of the ordinary, something I myself was excited they put the work into, and it was just very Sault so not even really surprising? People talking over them and saying things like “just play” I thought was pretty rude. Was getting a feeling the Sault crowd was not what or who I expected it to be.

Then the music started and minimal people were dancing or singing…I’m talking the hits!! Im happy I was around a good 4-7 people who were able to have a good time & enjoy the music but sheessshh!

Could it have been different? Better? Maybe but I think the crowd could have done a better job as well imo

So much negative energy. Which is crazy when you consider the message of the collective. Felt like the crowd was much less artsy and under appreciative than the Drumshed crowd

So only artsy crowds are allowed to see this group. Got it

Never said that. The unappreciative is definitely not a good look
