I really can't understand this. So not all of the crowd was into SY (this was an open festival), so there were people that didn't knew all of the songs (is that a crime?), and some say people didn't dance? Well, from where I was standing, people were moving and enjoyng the music, but the crowd was so compact that it was nearly impossible to move a muscle. Anyway, I fail to see where the show was ruined, people seemed to love it, and the guys seemed to enjoy too. Well, I know I did, so fuck everything else.

Anyway here are two links from a portuguese website where those of you that understand portuguese (or are able to use babelfish..) can see that the portuguese audience really enjoyed the concert and are expecting SY to come back for more (Coliseu do Porto, who knows?):

i doubt a crowd could ruin sonic youth show, unless you were assaulted and then sonic youth got bottles thrown at them.
I saw Dinosaur Jr at a festival once and even though there were only about 5 fans there out of like 10 thousand people, it was still a great show!!! |

and by that i'm not saying they didnt enjoyed it.
but if they dont get any comeback from the crowd how does that makes them feel? you were there thin ice, how many of us shouted their name during the show? |

complain about it and try to make people act diferently at the next time.
this is not japan or whatever, they dont sell many records here, if we want them to come back more often we need to make the difference at the shows. |

i want them to come here every year, but if they dont enjoy playing here will they do it? i wish!! but obviously not.
tears, tears, rolling up next years, i'm afraid. with so much sonic youth blablabla in the past weeks, i was expecting something different. i've read some of the post show blablabla. if people enjoyed them that much, in my opinion they failed to transmit it to the band. |

On another completely different note - do you know if the word Foggo means anything in Portuguese, someone told me it meant fire or cooking place???

It's Fogo (with one "g"), and it means fire, yes.

would you relax please with the "people ruined the show"? sy played shows this year in nyc where nobody moved and you could hear a pin drop at some points, that did not detract from the experience. why are you focusing on what the other people are doing? focus on the music instead. and sy is not exactly an audience participation band, they dont do sing alongs, im sure they will love you just as well if you just stand there and listen.
