| Urban was the best performance of the night! |
| Absolutely amazing show! Got there at 10 am and didn't want to leave even after the show was over. All the performers won over a lot of fans leading up to Kenny's performance. Best concert I have ever attended even with the extreme heat. |
| Who saw the guys in the parking lot with dance party and the pick up truck pool? |
