Peter Laird LIKES The Coming Out of Their Shells Tour?!

I don't know how well this cash-in sits with the fanbase, but one person I never would have bet had a high opinion of it is Peter Laird. He's become rather infamous for his aversion to the cheesy version of the Turtles that became popular in the 1980s and early 1990s, and absolute hatred of TNM, so it stood to reason that the more goofy and fringe the product, the moire he'd disapprove.

Yet according to the "Greenbacks" chapter in the Ultimate Visual History book, he went to the show in New York and liked it. I don't think he's pulling his punches for the purposes of a rose-tinted book, because he doesn't in the chapter about the Fred Wolf show, and plus, he never had to say anything about TMNTCOOTST; positive or negative.

Not sure what the purpose of this thread is, but I thought it was interesting to note.
