    Great stage presence. Very interactive. Songs were well written & had good hooks. Would definitely see them again. Hoping to hear more songs from them.

    It was an amazing, fantastic, blow-your-mind kind of concert. The sound was perfect, the venue (Union Transfer) was perfect... EVERYTHING about this show was perfect! We flew from FL to come to this concert, I'm so glad we picked the Philly show!!!

    This was a concert I have waited 20+ years for, and it surpassed even my high expectations. PERFECTION! The venue was great, too. I was up on the balcony and had an excellent view of the stage.

    First time seeing N.O.W. in concert. Pleasantly surprised that he wasn't just standing behind the decks. Outstanding show & King Britt was also asuperb opening.
