Daughter and I went to see them and was not disappointed! They are still the best and the acoustic’s were on point. The workers were very friendly and helpful making sure everyone knew where their seats were. They also gave us a great tip. They were performing the entire evening, two hours with no intermission. This was awesome information! We were able to make our runs and get comfy and not miss a beat. We have loved Swell Season since Once came out. Loved the venue as well!
