Just wonderful, thank you. And here I thought it was maybe a little extreme to travel to Toronto and New York for a total of two shows, but it turns out I'm a filthy casual!

But they were excellent gigs, weren't they? I haven't shared my impressions here but I thought the band were in top form. These shows were certainly a contrast to the one I attended last year, with the string section, multi-level stage and overall much more elaborate production, but still great concerts. I was a little surprised they didn't use more of their visuals but it doesn't seem to have been a bad decision.

I'm sorry to hear you had such an ordeal escaping Toronto, only to go through another ordeal in Brooklyn. I have nothing more than minor quibbles, like the impossibly long queue for the lone merch table in Brooklyn.
