The back room of the Rivoli was not at all what I expected, but it was exactly the right atmosphere for the show Adele was about to put on. A small, low-lit room in the back of the restaurant contained minimal seating, a bar about the size of a hot dog stand, and a stage barely big enough for the piano, chairs and microphone it elevated. The merch table was two square tables put together in front of the sound booth, covered by a plain white tablecloth with her music on display. By the time I arrived, there was no seating left so I grabbed a drink and found some wall space to lean upon.
