This band has a great way of making special moments happen,  From their first appearance on the MTV Video Awards to Bonaroo in 2013, and now Firefly 2014, if you saw it, you were going to talk about it for a long time after.  On this day, their tour manager stepped up to play some guitar and drew chants of STU-S-A in support.  And when the finale of “My Body” hit its stride, 20 people watching from side stage formed a giant dance party.
