@Sabretooth What was the weather differences like between the two nights? Saw quite a lot of people on Twitter complaining about the cold for Night 1 and that was a big reason for the crowd not sounding as lively.

It was cold lol. Northeast this time of year ain’t warm. I believe night 1 was quite windy which was making it worse. Night 2 had less wind but still cold. I think the temperature by main event time was around 45.
