Tegan And Sara opened up the festivities on a perfect night. Riding the wave of their current album "Hearthtrob," they entertained the sing-a-long crowd with favorites like "Closer", and "I Was a Fool". The Canadian duo went back and forth exchanging verses throughout their well received setlist. Fresh off a cameo appearance the night before with Taylor Swift they kept the enrgy buzzing as the nights headliners prepared to take the stage.

As the lights dimmed and the glowing ambiance reflected off Creation Rock and Ship Rock, the opening chords of "Some Nights" (Intro) began to fill the sold out amphitheater. Blinding panels displaying a variety of images filled the backdrop as the indie outfit danced and pranced across the vastly open stage singing hits such as "Some Nights", "We Are Young", and even a cover of The Rolling Stones "You Can't Always Get What You Want". The animated Nate Ruess used his patented showmanship to bring life to each and every song flanked by guitarist Jack Antonoff and multi-instrumentalist Andrew Dost.
