Wanted to quickly add a note about the vibe regarding the collective energy in garden last night. At one point in 2001 the entire place erupted akin to an old school glow stick war (but there wasn’t one glow stick in sight) and I looked around to try to see what was driving the uproar and it was just a bellow of excitement that was emanating from every goddamn soul in the place. It was like a care bear stare from the masses that crescendoed and peaked…and was the culmination of excitement that was coursing through the arena all night.

Also shout out to my new friends from Queens and Manchester New Hampshire. A wonderful little pocket of energy in section 1!!
