Though the band was as tight as ever and Russo looked like he was having a blast, his stage antics were often hurting, not helping, him.
Shirtless for much of the show, Scott was dancing, smiling, and prancing around the stage a little too often, not singing into the microphone loudly enough at various points in the show. Don't know if he gave himself any of those mind-altering substances before the show that he referenced having taken the last time his band came to town, but Russo was at his best when he concentrated and had his guitar in hand. Yes, the crowd knew all the words to the songs and Russo fully realized this, but he let them sing a little too much (and should've sung out HIS lyrics a little more).
All in all, it was a strong set and a rockin' show, for a Sunday night, but with a little more energy and focus, it could've been even better.
