Finally got to see the Man! Ticket people need to learn how to spell lol, but the show was great. The sound was great and real loud, Devin does a great job with mixing and looping alot of extra stuff into the songs, especially Anneke's voice...The opening bands were awful, but when Devin hit the stage it was electric! His vocals where spot on and he was full of energy and the band was real tight! Waited around a bit to meet him but didn't get the chance, maybe next time...Met the drummer Ryan he was cool guy and talked with Mike St jean (drums on Ghost) at the merch table a bit, he gave me a setlist so you can see for yourselves what tunes were played.I kinda feel like they played more songs than the setlist shows but I'll have to watch the Video to see for sure. I was totally blown away by Devin's classy yet humorus demeanor. He's a funny man!!! My camera wasn't that great but here's some pics.

Took me a while to get my registration to work, but better late than never.

I'll echo Disciple's thoughts: it was a long wait to get a Devin appearance in the area, and a long wait to get through the opening acts, but it was so worth it. A great performance from Devin and the rest of the band. I have minor quibbles about the order of the set but again, it's trivial compared to things like executing the songs well and having such amazing stage presence. And an incredible value! I would easily have paid double.

Devin: I know it's a lot of hard work. Thank you so much!

interesting, so Dev switched boards? I also assume the "pedals" are a wah, pitch shift and volume?
