One of our favorite moments of the night was hearing Omar perform "Girlfriend" and "Red Light," both of which had different tempos and styles, yet were equally satisfying. He even came out and performed several more songs during an encore, including one of his hits, "Mi Casa Su Casa." Everything about the night was perfect.
