As fans filed into the arena, the band’s giant disco ball was a welcome site as it foreshadowed the giant party that was about to erupt. There was no shortage of energy in the 1stBank Center and there didn’t seem to be an empty seat in the place as the razor sharp beams of light from the disco ball probed the farthest reaches of the room.
