Amazing! Would of rather he do more on his own or with accoustic player instead of with opening band.

The show was greatly entertaining in many aspects from seeing someone who went through so many struggles as an artist from the infamous documentary to seeing a real genuis play with his heart and loving every minute of it and appreciating his fans. Plus the actual signing of each of his prints at his shows that were very limited is something that is rare that I'm glad to have been a part of which is the magic of Daniel Johnston.

The show was great. Daniel was a little sketchy at first, but once he warmed up to the audience he told us some jokes and some stories. I really liked it when he just sang and had another guy come out to play guitar, but I didn't like the band he had come play behind him for the second half of his set.
Daniel's Story: I had a dream the other night and in it there was a man who was being sentenced to death for attempting to commit suicide. Then I realized that the man was me and I yelled from the back of the court room "No, no, no!!"

I stood and waited over 2 hours to see Daniel Johnston perform. It was a very close and intimate set at first and one drugged audience member would not stop screaming even thought the audience was silent for the slow acoustic music. her friend had to drag her away. it would have been nice if security had gotten on it instead of letting it ruin the first set all the way. There was a break and Daniel said they were going to set up the piano which he is famous for. The second set began and there was no piano. The opening band instead accompanied him which was a BAD idea. Their instruments completely drowned out Daniel's soft voice. And then after this agonizing set he performed by himself again and the show ended abruptly. I turned around to see many confused and disappointed faces.

Very interesting show with Daniel. I don't know what I was expecting, but he did his job. I felt sad through most of his set, but the music was good and the younger crowd could relate.

Daniel Johnston was amazing...he is an artist and a legend. Seeing him in concert was everything one would want it to be. He is precisely as I hoped at his best he could be. Pure soul, pure love, pure goodness triumphs over any lack to musical dexterity. His heart runs the show and he is a master and inspiration.

The first half of the show was Daniel playing songs acoustically, then he was joined by another member of his joining him on acoustic guitar. There was then about a 10 minute break, then the opening band came out backing Daniel on the second half. The songs were very moving and at times, it was very sad with his lyrics about loneliness and so on. He seemed to be having a good time and the crowd was very supportive of him, shouting "I love you"'s and clapping whenever the opportunity arose. It was a great show and his songs that were playing were either from the Hi, How Are You stage all the way to his recent album, Is And Always Was. He played two Beatles songs, and a song by John Lennon. His encore was just one song, True Love Will Find You In The End, but it was enjoyable and so was event.

Daniel Johnston still got it, perfectly entertaining, makes you think - really does. And The Hymns.. wow, awesome. The guys can rock!! Key performance: Rock N Roll EGA. This is Daniel for you, "I had a dream of someone committing suicide, but he was caught and sentenced to death! And it was me. And I was sitting in the courtroom saying 'nooooo'"

Wonder was an intimate yet amble venue. There were some sounds snaffues, but other than that, it was great. We could see and hear Daniel very well.
