But seeing him in Victoria the next night was great. He interacted more with the crowd. He got the entire crowd to do the wave twice. He told a story or two more. It seemed like he enjoyed himself a bit better the 2nd night.

However, I do totally disagree with a few things that you said. Sleepercar was great. Both nights they were amazing, bit more in Victoria especially during one song. No one made a sound but Jim, and during Wednesday Nights he just poured his soul into the song, at the end stood 2-3 feet from the mic and just gave it his all. At the end of the song he thanked everyone and told us he would remember those last 5 minutes for the rest of his life. I also disgree with you about the setlist. It was fine, could have been a song or two longer. But it was a good mix of old and new songs. I liked how he did the solo songs.. and Sometimes was the best I've ever heard it. He sang Black and Gold in the middle and did these amazing things with his guitar at the end.

Here's the setlist... which was the same both nights. I was hoping he'd switch it up since he does have more material now, but I don't see that happening.
