Apollo:

Only two encores this time, but still a killer show! I loved hearing "I'll Sink Manhattan" for the first time since 1999! The new arrangement of "Black Ops" was a bit startling, even the fifth time around (as they soundchecked it four times to get it right). "Hey Mr. DJ" was stellar as well. I'll think of the rest of the things I want to say tomorrow when I'm less sleepy...
