Notes: This Broadway run is basically a continuation of last year's American Utopia tour. I went to the Forest Hills show which was great. But this is even better because it's in a small theater (970 seats) with perfect acoustics and light. It runs through mid January and I highly recommend you experience it in person. Balcony seats are cheap by Broadway standards ($69), less than most arena concerts. I have complete video which will be shared here. Here are YouTube samples:
