Barclays Center was already packed when The Vaccines kick-started the night, giving fans an excellent opening set. An hour later, Phoenix took the stage. I was shocked — what amazing energy! Aside from breathtaking visuals, Phoenix absolutely excels at knowing how to interact with their fans. Thomas Mars made it all worthwhile as he crowd surfed during “1901″, then sang “Countdown” sitting on the audience’s hands. Not only that, he also he circled the entire seated area, giving out hugs to his fans. What most surprised us, though, was when for the last song, he invited us to join him on stage. What a memorable show!
