This is the last concert my daughter and I went to together! We had a fucking blast and we danced the whole time!
My daughter Emma passed away a year ago today from a fentanyl overdose. Blessings to all of you who are fighting for their lives every single day! Bless your hearts. Stay safe. ✨
Where were the magical Yann Tiersen melodies?
A concert that vacillated between a 60's Roundhouse Happening, Industrial Krautrock and Jean Michel Jarre; but without the musicality...
The last time I saw YT live, it was an enchanting, memorable, musical event that stayed indelibly in the mind.
It could be said that this will stay in the mind too...but for the wrong reasons...
What a shame......
One star for turning up....
I was there I worked my way up to the front to see the band it’s open standing. I was blown away. A night I will never forget!!! I remember a guy was high or drunk punching people in the face in the crowd. It was upsetting to see woman getting hit . The Chicago police grabbed him and shamed his face in a pole and out the door he went. I’m glad I saw SRV. He was outstanding
This was the first real concert I attended, and my buddy's grandmother was dispatched to buy our tickets (we lived out of town). We ended up 13th row center, and the show was amazing. BYW, this was Aerosmith's first big show in Canada; no one had heard of them, and their name on the posters was spelled "Arrowsmith"
We were young students at Barnet College of FE in N London. We were thrilled and excited to venture down to Brixton, The Greyhound pub. Yes we were white and stayed on the balcony to watch and just loved every minute. For some reason a sense of respect not to go to the front/ hard to explain. What an atmosphere ! Bob Marley, the Wailers and Peter Tosh. Legends and I'm so proud to say I was there.
This show was epic. Running alongside the rum sodomy and the lash album; the pogues at their finest. Add to the mix it was new year's eve, one of my all time gigs.
Catatonia actually didn't play on this date of the Manics tour, due to Cerys either losing her voice or extremely sore throat and was advised not to perform.
No replacement for them appeared either, so it was only the Manics on the Exeter date
It was one of the best concerts I've ever been to and Robin Trower was at the peak of his career with James Dewar on vocals it is a memory that will stay with me forever.He was ably supported by the great Aussie band Blackfeather and it certainly was a night to remember.
Ace gig. Was right in front of Dee Dee shouting Wart Hog (as you do) . Still convinced Dee Dee said this one's for you (me) though had had a drink (or 2).. great night.
I was there. Slept over and was 4 sleeping bags from the stage. I remember Carlos being incredible. I also remember the skies got dark and threatening when Fleetwood Mac was playing but it did not rain and when the Beach Boys hit the stage the sun broke through. It was as if the weather was choreographed. Great day and an awesome concert.
I was there and it was phenomenal. A concert that I will never forget. In one of the most historical sights of the world. Many of my friends met him and band members at the Jerusalem Hilton.
I just found out :-(. Thanks for posting as it helps to connect when someone passes and and era of your life with it.
Remembering Grad Night at Disneyland with Olivia on the Tomorrowland stage for every performance. When we made eye-contact with the line "If you Love me let me know" :-) I nodded "yep"
Remembering how fortunate I was meeting her in person while working at my dad's resort in the desert and putting spa mud on her face. Then taking the garden hose to wash it off and laughing. She was even more down to earth and friendly than I could have imagined.
Bittersweet as I write this listening to her right now singing "God only knows what I Feel Without you" .........
Edit: Sorry, but I think I'm the only one that Loved Xanadu!
An amazing night... incredible voice.. passion and energy with lots of smiles from stage.... only missed hearing "nothing compares to you" which would have been icing on the cake... but a wonderful night :)
This woman ... is beyond amazing. Unique and utterly genuine. It is a very rare thing these days. I loved the performance, especially the more quiet songs ... we drove about 700 km from Germany to see her and the band and it was more than worth it!
Bands were amazing! Venue, not so much. Over-priced beer, sound was poorly balanced; guitars and vocals were drowned out by the thundering drums and bass. That can be fine if the band is playing as loud as they can to a very large crowd, and was thrash metal, but the crowd was small, and symphonic metal has a lot of emphasis on vocals as well as instruments that are not drums.
Xandria had an amazing stage presence, and considering their discog, they should have had more playing time. I felt their time was much too short.
Delain, I didn't much care for, but I had fun, and they played well. I also also distracted by the lead singers cleavage, especially when she was jumping.
Sonata Arctica was another victim of sound balancing issues, but were also great, and very engaging with the crowd, especially when they played Fullmoon.
Overall, great time, and I would definitely see them again.
Last night at the Roxy was my 5th Bob show in the last couple weeks. The PUNK ROCK show last night is something I will never forget. It blew what is left of my mind. THANK YOU BOB!!! <3
I went in not really knowing either band and I fell in love with both the opening act Bo Ningen and Kasabian. Fantastic, I loved the contrast between the two bands. What a superb way to spend a Sunday evening!
Kasabian was awesome. Bo Ningen was the worst, most inappropriately paired, opening act I've ever seen.
Awesome show!!! Amazing! Very fun!
Seen a lot of shows this season but Kasabian kicked them all! Energy level was insane in the club. The band was on point, but more importantly electrifying.
one of the best one of the best great one of the best
This gig was my first show, ever. Sophie was incredibly charming, adorable, unique and pure. Last night was amazing. Thank You, Sophie!
Tremendous
Sophie has delivered the best set of gigs in 2014, all absolutely fantastic.
Outstanding gig by Sophie
The best in the business. A magnificent performance
Astounding.
Brilliant.
Absolutely stunning performance once again. High energy perfection. Sophie delivers a magnificent note perfect performance. Such a lovely lady who always has time for her fans no matter what time she stays to.

While you're not going to hear the strong burr of a voice that he had in his "Sundown" days; you are going to watch one of North America's greatest songwriters strum his guitar to some of his best penned works. The years have slowed Gordon Lightfoot's rhythm down; however, it's still crisp, and he's still backed up with the Lightfoot band who doesn't miss a step. His new lead guitarist (Carter Lancaster) isn't quite as intense as the late Terry Clements; but Carter does "get down" when the song lets him (Listen to "Baby Step Back", and see if you don't agree!). Lightfoot is constantly re-tuning his guitars, and that's a good thing! It lets you know he's still a perfectionist; and wants to put as good a show as he can for the audience. Sprinkle in some humorous banter now and then, and you're in for a good time as you find yourself boppin' your head, and tapping your toes to his great songs. It's well worth your while to go if you can.
The acoustic was awfull -thats why Ritchie stopped playing. He hates bad sound. People refused to leave. They wanted something for their money and started to rip off the gear. Suddenly a local motorcycle gang member jumped on the scene and kicked the pole that carried the light spots and it all fell down on the audince hurting a girl badly. The police came but people still refused to leave and the police backed off. Later police came again - this time with sheeperd dogs and people left nice and quiet. So sad.
Ritchie Blackmore was an ase that night (too). He played 45 minuttes and left the stage. Panic broke out, and sevarel people were injuried.
I came from Montreal just to see the show but left feeling like the venue was too big for the kind of show they gave.
Ben was barely blurring the lyrics out; Couldn't even hear India; the sound was not great at Radio City. I have definitely seen better graphics and light-enhanced shows at way smaller theatres. Most importantly, I can understand why, but I definitely didn't like that Ben would take "The fear" and turn it into a dark-noisy song. I love the fact that "I forget where we were" is a completely different sound than "Every Kingdom" and I think they achieved that brilliantly (Thanks also to Chris, or well both B Brothers), but why does he feel he should go back on his tracks and try to turn it around for the previous songs. I miss Chris but maybe Ben should just move forward with developing his sound whichever direction he is aiming for, but you won't get there by going back. "Every Kingdom" songs and all the songs in the EPs he released before were magical the way they were just as all the songs in "I forget where we were" are in their own way. His talents shine through them all but at the show I didn't see it. I feel sad because I have felt more excited about his shows watching the Youtube videos, than the one I actually got to go to.
Ultimately, I understand if he is not the warmest person, but he sure could have at least greeted the crowd. He was just too cold for someone working in entertainment and I know he can crack silly jokes or funny sarcastic comments which would have been great. He just didn't look happy to be there. He's human I know, but it's part of the job as he knows by now. All together, Radio City hall was too big for such small AND SHORT show. I just wish I could go back in time and catch him at a small open mic kind of show. I'm sure he gave more back in those days.
Band was Amazing, but the Sound was not what i expected from a Band like Bolt Thrower.
The sonic impact was great, but lacked clarity
Morgoth had by far the better/clearer sound, at this night.
Shit happens,... Bolt Thrower rocked the evening !
still loyal

Missed Starchild because of a traffic jam. Saw Unisonic. Performance of Kiske was stunning and amazing. He sang like he did on Helloween's "Keeper..."-records. Bad sound and a way too moderate setlist...
Edguy were great. Sound better than Unisonic but surely not great. Visited Turbinenhalle often before and I never heard a good sound there. Anyway, Edguy delivered a great show with some highlights in the setlist (Out Of Vogue, Babylon).
Heard some people moaning about Tobi and that he's always talking too much. He's the one who's responsable for 10 of 10 Edguy albums and he does what he wants to do. He's a midget but his balls are big enough to do what he considers right. I like that!
Starchild: not impressed.
Unisonic: awesome.
Edguy: left after half of the set, couldn't stand Sammet's chattering any longer.
Temperature inside venue: near unbearably hot
Sound: okayish, drums way too loud
Worth the money for Unisonic alone, the rest was a disappointment.
I have been listening to them on youtube and fell in love with their voices and their skills!it was amazing,unreal good and i would go to end of world to hear them live again!totally impresed and enchanted of their music
Fans concert reviews
Nor koncert, to je to
Odličen performans, kateremu žal ni sledila kakovost ozvočenja
Great performance, it was not that crowdy, so we had a lot of fun in front of the stage.
Amazing

Kudos girls, great support for QOTSA \m/
First gig, first spliff, threw up all over the barriers at the front while the Jesus lizard were on.

Great concert from one of the most promising young Slovenian bands.

MRFYji so kul, si ne predstavljam da bi imeli slab koncert :))
Was the best show ever. Wish they can "come again back for more"
I was there mainly to see john Stewart a favourite of mine but the whole night was something I'll never forget.
This was the first real concert I attended, and my buddy's grandmother was dispatched to buy our tickets (we lived out of town). We ended up 13th row center, and the show was amazing. BYW, this was Aerosmith's first big show in Canada; no one had heard of them, and their name on the posters was spelled "Arrowsmith"
Haha "Arrowsmith", that make me laugh :D
We were young students at Barnet College of FE in N London. We were thrilled and excited to venture down to Brixton, The Greyhound pub. Yes we were white and stayed on the balcony to watch and just loved every minute. For some reason a sense of respect not to go to the front/ hard to explain. What an atmosphere ! Bob Marley, the Wailers and Peter Tosh. Legends and I'm so proud to say I was there.
was at this show ... shouted a request for needle in they hay and he played it.
By far, the best band of the day. Really could play their instruments and sing live in concert a very high level, and the crowd loved it!
This show was epic. Running alongside the rum sodomy and the lash album; the pogues at their finest. Add to the mix it was new year's eve, one of my all time gigs.
Show was great! The Fieldhouse - however, is located in Grand Forks ND, not Fargo. Diamond Rio opened for them - as memory serves.
Catatonia actually didn't play on this date of the Manics tour, due to Cerys either losing her voice or extremely sore throat and was advised not to perform.
No replacement for them appeared either, so it was only the Manics on the Exeter date
It was one of the best concerts I've ever been to and Robin Trower was at the peak of his career with James Dewar on vocals it is a memory that will stay with me forever.He was ably supported by the great Aussie band Blackfeather and it certainly was a night to remember.
I remember this concert
Mud fest we called it and Bryan Adana would not leave the stage and rocked on for us

I was there and it was phenomenal. A concert that I will never forget. In one of the most historical sights of the world. Many of my friends met him and band members at the Jerusalem Hilton.
I was in the band that played for Olivia that evening Olivia was very special.
RJ
Awesome, full of energy! My neck still hurts :D
I'm glad they are touring and co-headlining with Lamb of God, because it would be shameful to missed it.
Really really good show! It was a blast.
Who else performed that nitE?
I just found out :-(. Thanks for posting as it helps to connect when someone passes and and era of your life with it.
Remembering Grad Night at Disneyland with Olivia on the Tomorrowland stage for every performance. When we made eye-contact with the line "If you Love me let me know" :-) I nodded "yep"
