I was there too! Not too far from you apparently, we were in section 221B.

At first I wondered how you figured out you were close to them, but then I realized it was elementary.

Not the best seats lol but I can’t complain. It was kind of fun to be able to look out and see almost all the rest of the fans.

A little far away but a clear view and great sound. No complaints from me!

I was trying to remember how many times he’s played Peoria so I looked it up:

July 3, 1992: Peoria Civic Center (Off The Deep End Tour)
August 17, 1996: Peoria Civic Center Theatre (The Bad Hair Tour)
November 4, 1999: Peoria Civic Center Theatre (Touring With Scissors Tour)
August 30, 2019: Peoria Civic Center Theatre (Strings Attached Tour)
October 13, 2026: Peoria Civic Center Arena (Bigger & Weirder 2026 Tour)

I was at 3 of them.
