Hate?  It's quite a jump from people saying they didn't seem to be
enjoying the show to someone saying; "I see.  You hate them do you?"

Erm, no.  Like most of their records.  Play them quite a lot.  Enjoyed
the show, but i've been to a lot better.

Why would anyone hate a band?  There are lots out there that irritate
me a great deal, but hate?  Life's too short for that.

Lousy accomodations, late soundcheck, not enough time to eat before the show, lack of sleep, head cold, road runs, too many Denny's stops, crappy bus, delayed flights, trouble at home, bad monitors, terrible sounding room, hassles about being paid, no clean laundry, not your regular instrument/amp...there are TONS of reasons why a player might look distracted, even if they aren't...and if they are, they are usually concentrating that much more on hitting the notes and plaing well.
