Due to the overwhelming response to the festival appearance, it was announced the following week that Stir had been tapped to be the inaugural concert on September 30 at Delmar Hall, a new 750 capacity venue next to The Pageant in the Delmar Loop area of St. Louis. Tickets for the show went on sale on July 15, and within hours, the concert sold out. The band delivered an over 2 hour set for the show, covering the expanse of their career (including a number of songs from their unreleased third album). Their setlist included covers of U2 ‘s “” Where The Streets Have No Name ” and Simple Minds ‘ ” Don’t You (Forget About Me) “. Andy Schmidt and his brother, Justin, also performed a brand new song called “Steve’s Song (Free From It All)” which Andy wrote as a tribute to their father, who had died in December 2015.
