Just catching up now, but I was lucky enough to attend the Raleigh show (was up front dead center in the pit... sorry Elle, didn't know you were there or I would have tried to introduce myself!) and the show last night in Virginia. Both great shows, but very different in terms of audience/vibe, I thought.
The VA crowd seemed much larger and, thanks to the venue, you could really hear both the band and the crowd reaction very well. There were a few times Lindsey looked at Chris with kind of big eyes after a song ended and the crowd was going nuts, which was cool. My biggest complaint is that everybody sat for the whole show until GYOW. I was in row D and stood during Tusk (c'mon people, live a little).
Overall, a great couple of shows. I enjoyed my experience in Raleigh more because I was right up front (Chris waved to me, and I died), but the sound at Wolf Trap was incredible.
