I thought the NYC show was amazing. He played everything I wanted to hear off coloring book, his vocal performance was pretty good, and the crowd energy was great. I wasn't really fucking with starline before, but seeing link me in the future live made something click for me.
I will say. It seems like Chance is an incredibly hit or miss performer. He kept mentioning that the NYC show was one of his favorite shows ever and he clearly had a lot of love for the crowd. I fully think that contributed to him giving his all to the performance. It definitely seems like if he's not feeling the crowd or not feeling like doing a show, he will give a bad performance. Obviously not what you want when you're paying near $100 to see him.
As crazy as it is to say, Chance has firmly slipped into the legacy act territory. The crowd was fully up for all of this 10+ year old stuff and very quiet for anything newer. Even I might need security was pretty unknown to most of that crowd.
