Acoustic guitar by Jerry, vocal & piano by Zino Park, bass guitar by Clay Luna, vocal & guitar by Zen, guitar & saxophone by Dan Stark, drum by Skip Mccain, and harp by Monica.
Name of the first song was “Be my love”. They started a song with very bright tone and middle fast tempo.

This song was great opener because this song made audiences get involved in the concert such as clapping their hands and tapping with their feet to feel the rhythm and tempo. The second song was a samba but, they played in a jazz style. At this moment, the bass guitar was a huge part of the song. There was no vocal but just bass guitar and acoustic guitar.
