8:30 p.m. Wells Fargo StageI used to think David Bowie was the gold standard for aging gracefully (pop-star division), but damn, count yourself lucky if you look a tenth as good at 56 as Tim Finn does. In a low-key but joyous set, he reached deep into his Split Enz catalog (back to 1979’s “I See Red”), included a few crowd-pleasers from Woodface (from his stint with brother Neil’s Crowded House), and debuted songs from an album due out in January. Backed up by just a keyboardist and guitarist, he proved, as he had at his Triple Door cabaret turn last February, what magic a songcraft like his can make in an intimate venue.
