DT is always awesome, but this show suffered from awful production quality. The sound was so loud that the music was distorted and literally painful to listen to. It hurts to admit it, but I left early and didn't bother to show up for the next night, despite spending an exorbitant amount of money on tickets.
Also, I had excellent seats in the left mezz (I could wave to the band and they'd see me) that I had purchased during the Paramount's members pre-sale. It turned out that the "owners box" was right in front of these seats, and before DT even took the stage my entire section was blocked by people standing at the rail. Management would not make them move, and we all ended up with expensive, useless seats.
I would see DT again in a heartbeat, but not here - and I will definitely NOT be returning to the Paramount.

Favorite moment: James waving to two young girls in the balcony (5-6 years old) and them screaming like teenagers at a Beatles concert. @
Opening act(s): Crimson Projekct - the sound system made them sound like a hippy garage band. So sad. @
