Reviews Ok I have been to hundreds of shows and at least 7 or 8 O.A.R. shows. This was hands down the worst crowd i have ever seen a show with. The crowd was just so boring and had no energy whatsoever. It's amazing that they were still able to play a good setlist and have energy of their own. Half the corwd was on their cell phones and sat until Sunday Bloody Sunday was played. Sat through 90% of the show, just pathetic.

Still a good time though . . . just hit me with music. -RVDBWO November 20, 2005
Alright first of all i was not at the show but it looked like a good time but rnt all oar shows. I will be attending the next show in wilks and i was hopeing mabey someone from oar would read this because i would be in heaven if they brought back something coming over me its one of my favs and would prolly die if they played it, also mabey a little hey jude or fool in the rain with mr north that would be sick hopfully we will get a good show monday night cant wait -Nauticaj4 November 20, 2005
My first OAR concert, so it was cool for me. But yeah, the crowd wasn't really into it. Since I didn't really know the music I didn't get real into it either, but this concert got me into their music, I really can't wait to see them again. -JimmyDThing November 20, 2005
Amazing show, the guys played awesome and they were really into it, but I agree with everyone who posted. The crowd sucked and everyone was sitting down in their seats. The crowd down below where I was, was good and into it but were being asses and throwing stuff and crowd surfing. -BigKDub16 November 20, 2005
The setlist was simply amazing, destination and king of the thing definitely werent expected. Only songs I didn't hear that would've liked to were Black Rock and Delicate Few...guess they can't play em all.
Afterwards I also was definitely chilling with Chris by the tour bus, and my brother definitely lit Jerry's cigarette.
In terms of the crowd..could definitely be better, I usually see them at Hammerstein Ballroom and there's almost no problems with the people around...yet tonight I had a problem with everyone. -k06mars November 20, 2005
what can you guys expect, all college shows are like that, the crowd doesnt get into it that much. When they started playing tonight i was the only person who a) knew the song and b) was excited they were playing it. i had a great time despite the extremly rude girl standing next to me crying about it being her friends birthday and that she should be in front of me, i had a great time, Cant wait for WB -kingofthething November 20, 2005
52-50 was a great way to open the show, it really sounds so much better live. I was so happy they played Get Away-it's one of my favorite songs and I haven't heard it live yet, so that made my night. It was awesome when Marc ran off the stage and into the crowd. Great setlist overall, see you all at MSG! -jesswils November 20, 2005
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah.... the crowd wasn't into the show, right? So what? Did you actually let a lackluster crowd ruin your night? And just how did OAR respond Saturday night?..... Well, Marc reassured the crowd that "we just gotta get warmed up," and that "we're getting there," and that, "by the end of the night we'll all be singing like birds." Staying positive, that's just what they do. Not every crowd can be primed like UMASS, but hey man, you gotta work with what you got. We can only hope that more and more people will buy into OAR's message. Thanks again to OAR for another blessed night, helping us relax for yet another delicate few. See you all At MSG! -mattyo17 November 21, 2005
i agree with king of the thing person college shows arent as good but i would go any were to see OAR. People bithching about where they r standing,annoying liitle girls and guys who thnk there tough pushing girls was not cool but the setlist was unreal and oh yea to the person who said they were glad to hear get away {fast} ur welcome i brought the sign and marc pointed right at me toward the beginning of the show so i had a real good feeling we were going to hear it i hadnt heard it since hammerstine 1st night 04 so over all it was a great show see u at MSG!!! -cityondown15 November 22, 2005
The crowd wasn't as fired up as umass but the guys still rocked it! Even though the energy in the crowd wasn't full force the band stayed positive! Marc said, "By the end of the night we'll all be singing like birds!" Always positive! Revolution is now! I think Mattyo27 hit the nail on the head...see ya'll at MSG -booty November 22, 2005
Had my hand on the bar up front, fun show, a lot of randoms, but you get that at a college performance. good show for a tech school, exept for the crowd shifting into me on the offbeat all night -agilicious July 22, 2006
