Even though over the past two night there were no real "HOLY Sh*T" moments and I didn't get anything rare off the first two albums or anything I was chasing (NSG, These Days, Hey God, ect.) both shows were great and night two blew night one out of the water (which is what I was hoping for). I had awesome lowers in sec. 117 row 4 and had a perfect view of the whole stage. Blood on Blood was an amazing opener and the energy was much better. Bad Medicine seemed to never end and they shot a live video during WWWB (hope to see it soon!). Other than that the set was pretty much the same as night 1 until the catwalk where Hallelujah into BOR blew me away. Sat. Night was the perfect song to end the main set (LTOR is good but I much prefer to hear Sat. night again. It's just a way better song.) HAND was good to open the encore but than the show ended badly. After Prayer I started to head for the exits (have to beat traffic with school at 6:15 in the morning) and was almost out the door when I heard him say something and sprinted back into some random section. I was pumped that I was going to hear something special (NSG anyone?) and then was totally bummed out when he ripped into Runaway. Why even bother playing that song. I already had to suffer through it the night before
. For my final thoughts if I were to look at the setlists before the show I would've not been at all excited and probably wouldn't have even bothered going both nights. Yet regardless of the set Jon was in the best shape since HAND/Bounce tours and the effects where mind blowing. The energy the band gave was great and I enjoyed these two shows 10 times more than the LH shows even though I was in the fourth row for one of them. No matter what set you get as long as you only go to a few shows a tour (me) you will not be disappointed at all.
P.S. I took some good pictures and I'll try to post some tonight.
