13. It was Arco arena in Sacramento.

I don't think it was Moraz. He was a member from 1978 when Pinder left until 1991.

When I searched Moodies and Arco it gave me Sep 20, 1994.

It was just them and the orchestra.

The 2017 Ironstone concert has photos online. Setlist:

The stage isn't that deep, and the Moodies double drumsets & stuff was pre setup in the back, which meant the Mathew's band's instruments were in the front half looking a little cramped. When they were done the roadies cleared their gear so Justin Hayward & John Lodge could take the stage front.

In the concert you saw, did Graham Edge come out from behind his drums to do his dorky little dance? He did that in both the ones I went to.
