I didn't think the sound/mix was all that great,
although it could have been where we were sitting in section A.
The drums over powered Chris's vocals on almost every song.
(Maybe that was intentional).
It was almost as if they brought giant arena sound for a small 5k seat theater.
But -- fun show with lots of energy.
And for LA, it was a great enthusiastic crowd.
I had some talkers next to me (including a drunk woman who yelled "Stevie" a few times), but all in all it was a typical Lindsey audience - respectful music nerds.

If I could change the set list, I'd do this:
Replace Wish You Were Here (not a great song to open a show) with Brown Eyes.
Let Lindsey's solo acoustic songs be solo -- lose the keyboard filler.
Replace Game of Pretend with Carnival Begin.
Remove Little Lies (doesn't work w/o the rest of FM).
Don't end the set with two new songs.
Yes, I am overly critical but I guess that happens when you've watched every incarnation of a band for over 35 years.
Amazed at Lindsey's energy after all these years. He brought his A game to the Greek.
