seen them twice live they are pretty good live.

they dont interact much with the crowd for the way over priced ticket. they do play a damn long set usually about two hours or so.

Yeah, they were too expensive for me. Saw them a few years ago and it was good, but arena shows just aren't for me.

I kinda figured that.......and yeah actually, 35.00 is steep.

I don't even know if I'm gonna go, but I was excited when I saw it on my ticketmaster email.

I saw them at this one place called The Norva about when Mad Season came out... about 3,000 people. It was AWESOME (Va Beach, guys, Va Beach)... Then they went back to their arena later on that summer. ::sigh:: It was awesome.

i saw them at madison square garden....they sold it out....in a day. When Rob Thomas came on stage he said "there is only one thing left to do in my career" and he knelt down and kissed the stage then said now I can die happy. :)

I love MB20... despite there disgusting attempt at disease... its an okay song... i liked it a lot at first... but it was one of those songs that you can tell wasn't supposed to be on the album then teh record company said "write something for the radio... so we can have people with rollerblades in the video"

Matchbox Twenty is my 3rd fav group behind U2 and OLP........although I don't think I'm gonna pay the CHI CHING to go see them, when I hear its all nosebleeds left now.

If it didn't sell out....

Perhaps I'll go to Darian Lake in June and see the "Roc the Mic" tour!?!? hahaha ummm no.
