chickenboo42- I was lucky enough to get tickets to Acoustic Christmas and all I can say about Bush is "WOW!". For the most part, their set was rockin and they gave an awesome performance. This was the third Bush show I've seen, and this definitely ranks up there as one of the best shows they've put on. My seats totally sucked though. We were on the top level of the Pond and had to use binoculars to see the stage really well. It was worth it though. I got there late, so thankfully I missed Powerman 5000. The whole concert in general was really strange. The crowd just seemed SO dead to me. Normally when I go to a concert, people are totally rocking, but last night was just DEAD. Anyways, Bush was the headliner for the night (Thank God!) and seriously they were the only band there the whole night that put on an honest-to-goodness awesome set. I felt bad though because they had to go on after Blink 182, and everyone was there for Blink. Honestly, BLINK SUCKED! They were entertaining and all, but their set was horrible. And everyone LOVED it! I seriously couldn't believe what I was seeing. People were totally dancing and jumping and going crazy. At the time this made me pretty happy cause I thought that it would be even rowdier when Bush came on. Boy was I wrong. As soon as Blink left the stage, about 30% of the arena left! I could not believe it! People were leaving without even giving Bush a chance!! I was soooooooooo pissed. Anyways, Jed the Fish introduced Bush by saying "I love the Bush", and he even introduced Sacha as the newest member of Bush!:) Anyways, the guys came out playing Everything Zen and they totally rocked the house (what was left of it). Then they launched into Chemicals and during the ending guitar solo, Gavin decided he would stir up the crowd and just jump in. He took off running up the stairs of the first section of seats, then went running down one of the rows and then went back onto the floor section where.
