Well, let's see. It was very funny to see the unexpected Stand Back interpretive dancing. It evolved a lot from the first show I saw to the last couple that I saw and it was a highlight. I enjoyed his backing vocals as he blended with Stevie's voice on Beautiful Child a lot. I always loved that first moment when they walked out on stage and he'd come right to the lip with that gleam in his eye and start looking at all of the faces in front of him. And then of course the amount of time he spent really singling out as many people as he could at every show to give a point or smile or kiss or wink or nod or whatever. That was cool and I think it made a lot of people's nights. Of course, I was anxious to hear the new stuff; I knew I would enjoy hearing that and I definitely did.

But, I think my favorite moment, musically, and this kind of surprises me now that I'm actually saying it, is the way he performed Never Going Back Again. I just loved everything about it. After he did it solo for a lot of years, which was always good, it was neat to have the band do it with him again. I love the high long note he held at the end. I love the quiet delivery and the whoops and hollers from the crowd that brought a smile to his face in the pauses. I just thought it was so charming and fun every single time. So I think that was probably my favorite thing.
