And anyway, we've also been getting the occasional bad review for 30 years. Just shows you can't please them all. We are quite relaxed about it. Which is why we don't mind showing it on our web site.
And not selling out venues has been happening for a while too. But it a bit worse at the moment because of the recession. I think changing lead singers has had a minimal effect on ticket sales. And no effect at all on the audience response.
What he said....
