Re: US & Euro audiences

I was at a great show in Dublin on 18.11.03, the Irish crowd gave it 
loads BETWEEN THE SONGS.  I've heard a recording that confirms it.  This 
is typical of Irish audiences.  You only have to attend a Ryan Adams, 
Frames or Damien Rice gig in Ireland (if you can get tickets after the 
first ) to realise how important music (songwriting) is to the Irish.

My question to you [EMAIL PROTECTED] is:
Have you ever been in an Irish or Italian audience or were you just 
generalising?
