This was the greatest concert I've been to. It started promptly at 9 with her band leader, Jherek, impressing and wowing us with a phenomenal bass guitar song. But then it turned out that each member of the band, Chad and Michael as well, were amazing performers, both on and off their instruments.
In addition to Amanda and the band, there were Ronald Reagan, a sax duo from Boston who were fun and funny (and excellent musicians, too).
Finally, after all of these musicians as well as a fine string quartet joined Amanda on stage, the group was made even more incredible with the addition of John Cameron Mitchell. The show was wonderful not only because each of the musicians was amazing but because the ensemble rose to even greater heights.

Favorite moment: Chad, standing (precariously) atop the balcony, playing his electric guitar as the purple confetti shot out of cannons. @
Opening act(s): The Grand Theft Orchestra (Jherek, Michael, and Chad), as well as Ronald Reagan. The opening acts were incorporated into the main act seamlessly. @
