bookmark_borderThe End: Best Unplugged Set

The best unplugged set of the year was The End playing Steel City. On December 29, 2009, The End played to the roar of a capacity crowd. Starting with the seasonal song 6 B.C., the 5-piece’s sound was crystal clean and buoyant. The audience fed off the energy and radiated it back to the stage… giving the band an over-the-top boost. Ending with the song The End Of The End, both band and audience were lifted to new heights. The End Of The End was the beginning of a brand new thing.

One of the best concert moments of 2009 was Jason Mraz with G-Love and K-naan. When Jason Mraz came to the Festival Pier in Philadelphia, it was a sold out show. The place was packed. As a special surprise for his fans, he performed a set on a special stage set-up in the midst of the audience. The crowd went nuts.
