I think the biggest thing is that the wrong people get the best tickets with all of the reserved club seats. I will say that as more and more bands have gone to fan club based presales that crowds have improved as it puts dedicated fans closer.

Anyway, I was really just amazed at how great the crowd was from the beginning to the end the building was on its feet.
Yeah I bet you must have gotten some pretty crazy crowds in Saskatoon. As you mentioned big artists don't hit up Saskatoon too often, so when they do it really becomes an event show, just like last night was. I really should have seen Pearl Jam in Saskatoon last year, no doubt that was a crazy good crowd (since Pearl Jam crowds are always crazy good).
