Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings were fantastic, very high-energy, old-school R&B dance party band, I thought Paul Weller would have a helluva time topping them but he pulled it off! He mixed old and new, looked and sounded great, had a terrific guitarist (I wish I knew his name!), really connected with the audience who was standing (dancing more like it) thru the whole show. There was a group of guys next to us who were singing along to every song, a really great show. Took two friends, one who didn't know either band and the other only familiar with Paul Weller's music with the Jam and the Style Council and both were impressed and had a great time.
