It's always good to see Richard, and it was nice that tonight's setlist featured new songs mixed in with older tunes and unexpected choices. His catalog is so deep now that he could probably play a week of shows without repeating anything, and yet the setlists from the 2022 tour so far are remarkably alike. Good thing I'm skipping the next few nights in favor of other choices!

Zara was a nice addition to the show. It will be interesting to see how their musical partnership evolves.

Big thanks to Ting for the photo gallery!

Whoa! This section is incomplete for now, sorry!
