It was a special night at Marquee Theatre last night, as A Perfect Circle played their first show in 6 years to a sold-out audience. It was their first concert of three, in which they'll be playing full albums each night. Last night, they played Mer de Noms in its entirety before surprising the crowd with covers of Cure, David Bowie and John Lennon. Here is what fans, who came from all over the world to see the show, had to say. (And read our review here.)
