I was there! The whole show was super cool! I even got to go to that secret acoustic show in Tucson! It was amazing!

There's video of it on Youtube now...

I'm telling you, between that acoustic show and the full show later, it ended up being a pretty awesome day for me!

I was there for the Tempe show! Missed the Tucson one, unfortunately...
Tempe was great. I got their about 3.5-4 hours before the doors opened and ended up being one of the first people in line. All I can say is think God there was shade where I was standing. It was sweltering. Ugh.

The show itself was fantastic. I was lucky enough to wind up front row, pretty close to center, so I got a great view. The band was super energetic and just seemed really psyched to be there. They played "Medication," "When I Grow Up," and "Big Bright World" during sound check (which we could all hear while waiting, despite the Marquee staff's repeated attempts to shoo us away, keep all doors closed, etc. They really didn't want us to overhear for some reason. Ha.) Despite that, though, they didn't play any of those songs during the show... Not that I'm complaining. I thought the show was perfect as it was. I stuck around afterwards and was lucky enough to walk away with a setlist. So I am pretty pleased.

Hoping some video will surface on YouTube soon, though, surprisingly, I didn't see as many cameras in Tempe as I did in L.A. Don't know if the Marquee had some policy against them, or what. I got a couple of pictures, but they are all crappy, iPhone quality. Hoping someone else had more luck.

Anyway... It was a great show.

I was there too and can confirm all of the above is true. Yeah the security was really tough on us darklings. We were just curious to hear a new song. Same goes for after the show we waited near the barriers to the backstage. Eric Avery came out and signed a few autographs but was quickly rushed away by security guards and we were told to clear out or we would get arrested for trespassing. Ugh. Come on. Really? So no I didn't get my picture signed but still had a great time. I was up front as well with the above poster.
