I think that review summed up good, i believe it was "Freedom" and not "Feel so Free" that he played. Highlight for me was "Alone". Epic.

I think what struck me the most about the whole thing was just J’s attitude. I mean, he’s like a missionary or something. He comes all the way to play a one off gig in some tiny venue where most people in this country have forgotton who he is and he shows up with his pedals in his napsack and his buddy/manager by his side.

I saw him geting a coffee in Starbucks about an hour b4 the show and said hi, and he quietly acknowledged me. He puts these trendy, wannabe ‘rockstars’ people to shame with his talent and grasp on what it is musicians should do.

We saw something fuckin’ great last night. We were very lucky.
