It is just a stone's throw away from where I live. Less than five Metro stops and during warm evenings, I much prefer to walk there. But both Porcupine Tree and Yes came during chilly weather. First time I attended a concert of a mid size arena, I remember Victoria Theatre in Melbourne for Al Jarreau twenty years ago. But L'Olympia had better acoustics. Steven Wilson's Porcupine Tree was my acid test. The sound was clear, with the loudness set just about right. But then, it could just be PT's way of doing things. Because as much as I love Yes, it didn't sound as well as PT. I wonder.
And the ushers work on tips. That's something new too.
