Reception
Ed Masley of The Arizona Republic said of the Phoenix show, "It was an entertaining night that found the singer in excellent voice throughout while leading a stage full of top-notch musicians in a set that struck just the right balance between his upbeat party songs and heartfelt moments that at times recalled the feel of a Bruce Springsteen concert."[3]
