"Two things about the Philadelphia audience: If they love you, they love you. If they don't love you, they hate you. It's the great fans. That's one of the reasons the town is so vibrant cause they don't hide their emotions. I expect to get a tremendous crowd. It's going to be a great show undoubtedly," River said.
He added, "Philly got soul. Let's just face it, Philly got soul. When you're in Philadelphia, you better be prepared. You got to come with you're A-game because they know what to expect."
