Rocky Votolato was phenomenal, but that was to be expected. However, I was pleasantly surprised at the caliber of the opening acts. When I showed up at 8 p.m. and realized the headliner wasn't taking the stage for 3 hours, I naturally expected to be bored until then. Luckily all 3 opening acts did a great job of warming up the audience for the main event.
I was also impressed with the quality of sound and acoustics at the Mercury Lounge. I've been to many shows that could have been great if not for poor sound engineering, and this was not a problem at Mercury Lounge.

Favorite moment: When he transitioned into my favorite song, "Tinfoil Hats" I couldn't contain a grin. @
Setlist: Lots of older songs, lots of new songs. @
