• Venue / Grandstand @ New York State Fairgrounds
• Event / New York State Fair

The first show by the band in this city since August 2003 on the X/Ten tour at the same event.

The fourth time at this venue.

The venue is located 4.9 miles to the North West of the city centre on Syracuse, NY and close to the Onondaga Lake.

It was opened in 1980 and closed down in 2016 before being demolished as part of renovations to the fairgrounds site.

Concerts are now held on a regular festival stage set up at the site called Chevrolet Court at the New York State Fair which was opened in August 2004.

The fair itself has been running since September 1841.

Long time support act Ricky Warwick returned for this show with Vivian again playing during his opening set.

The band played the same shorter setlist as the previous show in Detroit.
