ARW tour report: week one (Florida)

Reader beware: this entry contains SPOILERS! for week one of ARW's 2016 North American tour.  If you do not wish to read/view/listen to any details/elements of the tour prior to your applicable show then please do not read this entry!
_____________________________________________________________

Author's Note: A big thank you to everyone who shared photos and videos and impressions on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram and the Yesfans discussion forum.  Each tour report entry could be considered a work-in-progress as I find more things to add.  I did not add the ROIO for 10/4 as that will be the subject of a future entry.  However, you can find it in trading circles and on YouTube if you're so inclined.

After two solid weeks of rehearsal in Orlando, our boys got underway in the Sunshine State, and the threat of Hurricane Matthew couldn't dampen the enthusiasm!

Orlando
   Some things never change...even after 22 years, Trevor is still making that face.

Rescheduled to October 12th due to hurricane warnings issued for the South Florida region.

Clearwater
With the boys managing to duck the advancing front of Hurricane Matthew, Rick gave us a heads-up regarding what the audience should expect...
...and this was born out by the addition of "Lift Me Up" for which there was much rejoicing on the part of Rabid Rabinites.
