Comments by fans posted to various messageboards and mailing lists include:
"At first many were shouting for Todd to turn up the guitar volume, he made a few cracks about how angry people are these days that they just shout out demands. We chuckled. Then the sound improved."

"This was one of the quietest, most laid back crowds I've ever seen at a Todd show. Outside of a few yelps here and there, you could hear a pin drop between most songs. Very odd."

"Kaz's backing vox on Weakness were nice."

"The stand-out tunes for me were ones I had never seen live plus a few other gems. Hearing a Nazz song is always a treat and Kiddie Boy fit perfectly on the set list. Unloved Children was another great choice and was one of the hottest tunes of the night. The jazzy version of Born to Synthesize was last heard (I believe) during the With A Twist tour and was an extremely welcome addition to this set list. The ultimate highlight of the set was the trippy, moody I Went to The Mirror. That was a wow Todd moment for me."

"I found the encores to be enjoyable but maybe a bit strange. I Saw the Light just didn't seem to fit for me. What it did though was get the very subdued crowd on their feet which was desperately needed. Unfortunately, Tiny Demons slowed the positive crowd momentum when most everyone sat back down again. I loved the band version of Tiny Demons and think it fit the show. I might have swapped Unloved Children with it though and kept the up-tempo thing going throughout the encores. Not to fear though, Boogies got everyone back."
