Good points. And I'm glad Jeremy writes reviews. Who knows how some future Al scholar will be able to use this historical record?

Re: 5/5/12 Detroit, MI, Fox Theatre
This is not a criticism of Jeremy in any way, but if someone is going to a lot of shows throughout the tour, I would be more interested in hearing about the subtle performance differences of each show than the technical snafus.
When I am at an Al concert seeing him do a song I've seen several times before, I am always looking out for little things that make each performance different, but I am much more interested in the things Al and the band members are doing than the things the sound guys are not doing.

I couldn't tell a dirt clod from a plate of caviar.

Yeah, and I try to do that, too, when something different happens toward that effect. I try to remember any type of differences, and I think sometimes the stuff that isn't done since Al is such a perfectionist, becomes more memorable than the extra stuff that is done.
