Great place to see a show. The crowd was really into the show (alcohol may have played a part in that one haha) and you could hear people singing along to almost every song. Lots of signs, although I don't think any of them affected the set at all.
Agreed on this being a great show!  Shorter than the other two I've attended - this one came in at almost exactly 2 hours (8-10PM) vs. 2:30+ at both Camden and Jones Beach.  Not a lot of banter, but a solid show nonetheless.  Venue only fits about 4500 people, so definitely the most unique/intimate atmosphere for a show ont his tour.

RE: the signs not affecting the set list - he did at one point acknowledge them and I guess one had AKOG as a request.  He started to play it a little bit but then said something like "why do I write such hard songs?" Haha.  Loved Wonderland > Neon > Wonderland as the acoustic set though, especially with the crowd helping him out by singing the chorus.

This girl in the front row had a sign that said she skipped her first weekend at college to see him in AC.  He acknowledged it at the end and said that the good news is that he does give credit and asked what school she goes to.  I couldn't hear what she said but he said they unfortunately don't accept his credits - only Devry University, ITT Tech and University of Phoenix take them.  Classic JM banter.

Only other note I can think of right now is that the rocks were not on the stage, instead they just had them on the (scaled down?) screen.  The screen was probably my favorite part of this tour - I love that John took the pictures/footage himself.  And I loved the effects in general.

This was the end of the tour shows for me, but I'm looking forward to the Global Citizen Festival in Central Park at the end of the month - should be a ton of fun if the weather cooperates.
