You'd have to average the results, I'd guess, in order to some up with  any 
clear idea of how things are going.  So far the average it positive and 
looks like the tour is just fine.

Since we have nothing better to do, though <wink>, it is interesting to 
speculate on the reactions of different critics and what psychological 
process stands behind them.  It's curious that ideology runs with musical 
style, a point that came up on another list just recently.  TED as musicians 
seem quite acceptable to punk or grunge rock fans, but there is that 
difference in philosophy about money.  It ran in the sixties/seventies, too. 
  Something perennial?  Like maybe true art should never be commercial?  
That artists should always be poor and music free?
