Leandro,
Well, I thought that the stadium was a little empty on Sunday night. There were plenty of seats open and the floor was probably about half-full. I hated to bash the show, but it just seemed like there was no steam. I would really have like to have gone on Sat night, but i only arrived in Argentina on Saturday. Would have been a bit much to come into town and then go to a concert right away. I did also notice that people were very comfortable sitting down and showed no signs of standing, except for the few that were die-hard fans....
I am enjoying my stay as always. It´s never long enough though. My family is great and I always have a good time..... By the way, when I asked them who Racing Club was, they said, ¨Who?!!¨ Jajaja,... my wife is a HUGE River Platte fan and her brother and even BIGGER Boca fan. No chance I could like anybody
else..... I would be laughed at to death!!
Well, all in all, a Police show is a Police show, and I was just happy to get to see them in another country. Doesn´t happen often and I wouldn´t have gone to the trouble with any other band!!

The first show here in Buenos Aires was a bit better than the second one. I believe there were two main things that contributed to things going this way:
1) On Saturday the show was sold out and on Sunday there were too many seats empty (i'm almost sure that this was related to the very expensive price of the tickets) and a lot of free space on the back floor (they devided the field in two: VIP and back) This affect, of course, the result of the show.
2) In Argentina the crowd is kind of
strange. There are two kind of audience: the one who wants to jump and go crazy and the one who wants to see the show seated and in peace. The people in the second type, buy a ticket with a seat and is very difficult to see them getting up. In fact, is really anoying for them people standing. An usual phrase is "Sit down. If you want to see the show standing, go to the field".
Anyway, as you said before, it's normal to have different opinions and also it's very possible that i can't be objective. Is impossible.
Are you enjoying your stay in our country? I hope you do. If you want to become a fan of a soccer team, don't even think about River or Boca or any club instead of Racing Club. The greatest soccer team in Argentina and in the whole world!!! :D (we're not in a great moment right now, but well... shit happens, we'll get better!! :D)
