The singer spoke often to her audience and welcomed them to her show.

She told fans she was happy to be back performing and talked about the last two years when the pandemic kept everyone isolated.

"One of the things that happened during those last two years is I got to know me," she said adding she discovered "I like me."

In Warwick's band was her oldest son David Elliott, who plays the drums and also sang with Warwick.

Warwick shared with fans the importance of music, particularly at this time in society.

"There is something that can change things. Music can change things. It's a healer," she said.

Warwick later performed the poignant Hal David tune "If I Want To," and had the audience singing with her on "We Are The World" and "That's What Friends Are For."

At the end of the show, Warwick said "This evening has been about love and giving and sharing." And it truly was.
