i would support this if it was before the second set, at least. the glow stick thing has just gotten annoying. one spontaneous glow stick war per show during some dark jamming in the second set is enough for me... in 3.o every time trey hits a high note some kid is throwing hand fulls of glowsticks. its just lame when its a constant thing at every show. also... ever think about the tons of non recyclable plastic that is being thrown out because of this. the whole glowstick thing is lame... and now some company is doing everything in there power to sell more glowsticks, waste more plastic, annoy more people just to make a buck.

I'm with RobesPierre. I saw this post and thought, "It's official, the glow stick thing has jumped the shark." Think of the paradox here: planning spontanaety. It's too much, it's too gimmicky, ad it happens too often. Call me old, I don't care. Humbug.

...and the Trey interview is from when? He's talking about The Great Went's glowstick war, which was different. It was spontaneous, it felt like a once-only thing. Now you can pretty much see the band sighing when the glowsticks start flying during some inopportune moment, first set, Ocelot, whatever. Enough already.
