Interesting seeing Al play a symphony hall. The stage was really deep, so it allowed Al to move around more, especially when utilizing the segway.

Smells Like Nirvana was awesome here. Al really stressed Seattle in the song, and it got a huge pop. Before the first drum solo, Al said how honored he was to play in Benaroya Hall. He was just upset that they'd have to trash it.

During Lovr, Al utilized the deep stage, as well. Few movements that I hadn't seen before, including Al shaking sweat out on the lucky girl for the finale.

Coffee shop was Cortona Cafe on Union Street.

Stormtroopers were incredible fun tonight. They looked to be straight out of an OK Go video, as they would run in place in all different directions during the verses. They were really into it, with all their movements, and probably my favorite since the stormtroopers have been a permanent part of the show.

Would have loved to have seen it. Of course I also think it would've been great if they could have incorporated the Seattle Symphony into the show. :P
