Due to a rain delay during Gary Clark Jr.’s opening set and the fact that all shows at Forest Hills Tennis Stadium must be over by 10 p.m., D’Angelo had to cut the entire second set of his show on this tour from this gig. And while it breaks my heart a bit that he had to skip “Another Life” and “Back to the Future,” two of my favorite songs he’s ever done, this show was so generous it hardly mattered. Maybe not generous in terms of song quantity – there were only 9 proper songs in a 100 minute performance – but certainly in terms of extended grooves and D’Angelo’s considerable showmanship. – [Fluxblog]

Sunday’s brief thunderstorm cut D’Angelo and The Vanguard‘s set short at Forest Hills Tennis Stadium, but the steam rising off the stage was all his. Pictures (including ones of openers Meg Mac and Gary Clark Jr.) as well as his setlist (both planned and actual) are in this post.

Tuesday (6/23), D’Angelo’s tour hits Philadelphia. More pics from Forrest Hills below…
