I was at the show last night, too. It started off with some great Philly cheese steak for me and my wife at a local establishment. Even the opener was enjoyable to watch and listen to. And, GVF was great. I never went back and watched that SNL performance everyone crucified them for. But, it must've been an off-night. Or, they've gotten WAY better. Because, they were on fire last night.
They did stretch out virtually every song's ending. The only time it really bothered me was when it turned into a drum solo. You don't do that with the LAST SONG (or maybe it was the 2nd to last, I can't recall for sure). To make matters worse, they had him backlit. So, he was indistinguishable in the light to see what the heck he was doing. Actually, that happened a lot where whoever was soloing was washed out in the stage lighting (no spotlights) and you couldn't see him.
As for the band itself, the players were great! Josh's voice was spot-on all night long. While I'm not the biggest fan of all his Plant mannerisms, he was incredible. The guy has some killer pipes. And, Jake's guitar playing was pretty sick. One of the highlights for me was watching Sam when he was behind the keyboards. Watching his feet go off on the bass pedals as he played the keys was awesome.
A few seats over from me in the upper balcony, there was a girl (probably in her mid-20's) going OFF, standing up, waving her arms and emphatically singing along with every song. She didn't let up all show long. It was great to see at a show.
Overall, it was a pretty good night for rock and roll.
