Puscifer

Maynard is on top of his game. Catch one of these shows before they become as popular as Tool. I've seen Tool 3 times, and this was up there with them. Maynard is much more involved in the show than with Tool. The stage setup was awesome. They had a wrestling ring onstage, and masked Mexican style wrestlers putting on a show. The drummer was front and center, which I've never seen before. I liked that. The sound was amazing. As perfect as one could expect from a live show. Infectious grooves galore, you can dance to this music. But it also incorporates plenty of rock music. The visuals were incredibly trippy and humorous. I purchased one of the VIP packages, and it was totally worth it to have that experience seeing one of my favorite artists.

The wrestling act, Luchafer, and the band did their part but the crowd just kind of sat there like they were supposed to stay seated. I went to the show in Indy and you could feel the electric from both the music and the crowd. I didn't really get that from this show. They played the songs from their new album "Money Shot" with a few from their older albums like Toma, Man Overboard, Telling Ghosts, Horizon and Conditions of My Parol to name a few. Carina was absolutely amazing during Rev 22/20. A must hear. They played Autumn as a tribute to the passing of a friend at the end. I'm already looking forward to their next tour.

We had a long drive down there, we had to stand in the cold to make sure we got in the front , but it was all worth it when we got inside, and I can't wait to do it again. My gf is now a fan of Pucifer, which is great.

Puscifer was an amazing show. Sound was great. Maynard and Carina's voices blend so beautifully. Did not sit down the entire show. Nice mix of old and new.

In comparison to Tool, which is analogous to a tempestuous spiritual event, the show is far more intellectual and contemplative. So, if you came to rage, don't get bent out of shape, rejecting the moment as it is. The professionalism is at the pinnacle of the industry, and Carina Round is the devil's angel. Prepare to be mesmerized and likely reprogramed. Puscifer is an elaborate journey into Maynard's misfit subconscious of twisted humor and dark recognitions. Enter at your own risk!

one of the coolest laid back and originally creative shows ive ever been to!

If you were thinking about going and didn't. YOU MISSED OUT! One of the BEST SHOWS I've ever seen/heard!

The venue was great the show was amazing! My hubby wasn't sure if he was going to like Puscifer but after that show he is now a fan. =)

Carina Round opened with her solo performance. She is amazing. This is the first show I've been to in years where I enjoyed the opening act as much as the headliner. She then came back out to perform with Puscifer, which I expected, as she does a lot of work on their albums. Essentially doing a double-set, she performed outstandingly well and if she was exhausted, she never showed it. To my knowledge, this is the first time Puscifer has come to St. Louis. I had been waiting since the release of their first album to see them live, and they did not disappoint. The Peabody Opera House was a perfect venue for this band. Their show was laid back and relaxed, intentionally. They did an outstanding job of making the audience feel like part of the show. The set was even setup by the musicians themselves. They did an excellent job of making the show feel like everyone was just sitting around a campfire enjoying several bottles of wine.

Another amazing production from Maynard A must see for any fan of his. Great vocals and awesome performances from all involved.

Music seemed much heavier live, which I really enjoyed. The really rocked the place! The Peabody is very nice as well. Not a bad seat in the house!

Everything Maynard does is great! The music is just as good as A Perfect Circle and Tool.

Amazing live experience, especially in Vegas! I definitely recommend that you go and see them.

Absolutely breath-taking performing. Venue was gorgeous, sound was perfect. I saw this show in Atlantic City the previous week and I enjoyed it so much that I had to see them in Memphis as well!

excellent show puscifer always brings it . love carina round!!!

Fantastic! An amazing show of site and sound. Would see again!

Great concert!!! It was better than expected. I had a lot of fun!!!

Puscifer gave us a visually and musically stunning performance! Carina Round perfectly compliments the group. They found gold with her. I will see them again if they come back.

Each performance is different from the last. Its More than a concert, they really put on a show.

This show was a one of a kind masterpiece. Combining amazing musical and theatrical performances. I believe they covered some of every album and really performed the music well. It was a visual experience I would have to recommend any fan of the genre.

Pure entertainment. Like no concert I've ever been to.

Great show. Had a great time had great seats. The band sounded awesome. Money shot......

Puscifer is generally very creative and they certainly did not disappoint with this show. The band seemed to be enjoying themselves and were not taking themselves too seriously. The pre-show "skit" was fun for a bit, but went on a little long ... we were there to listen to music, not watch WWE. Maynard always wants everyone to stand for his entire show. That would be fine if I could move around or dance a bit, but when we are packed in like sardines, 2 1/2 hours of standing in one spot becomes tiresome.

Didn't know what to expect. Wasn't familiar with much Puscifer music. Not a huge TOOL fan but like a Perfect Circle well enough. This show was highly entertaining and unexpected. It was a combination of great music and theatre. Performance art isn't the right description, but close. The combination of high energy and comedy was awesome. Bottom line, if Maynard James Keenan comes to your town, you should probably go see him.

No complaints. Everything was great, except the comments box telling me my text is too short.

I saw Tool a couple months back too. I just feel like the music that has been created by Maynard et al is so good on album, but it hardly ever translates to a good experience live. Puscifer was much, much better live than Tool. In fact, I hated Tool live. However, I still don't think I would ever go to another Puscifer concert. It was mediocre. It felt a little uninspired. The setlist was poor. There is a lot to be said for bands that can go play live every night and each setlist is completely unique and they work hard to make it feel as if you are the only thing on their minds. Puscifer felt a little canned. I would tell a fan to see them at least once just to say they've done it. Then, you can save your money on all subsequent Puscifer concerts.

LUCHADORS! LUCHADORS! LUCHADORS! LUCHADORS! LUCHADORS!

Awesome!!!!!!!! Puscifer is always a great show!!!

The sound was amazing. Their harmonies were spot on. I think they should do more lights and less wrestling.

The show was excellent. My boyfriend and I really enjoyed it.

Absolutely 100% the most Amazing Show you will ever see.

Hands down the best show I've seen by any band at any venue.

Although I love the music the whole show was weird to say the least. I thought I was buying tickets to a concert, but instead it was a wrestling match with a concert thrown in. The whole show was revolved around the wrestling and it made me think someone was on drugs. There's no other explanation as to why someone would do such off the wall actions other than they had to be messed up. I love Maynard, but from now on I'll just stick to listening to him on my phone.

This was an amazing show, tour. After first seeing Puscifer in Akron, Ohio We decided to make the 6 hour drive to Louisville to see it one more time. The drive was well worth it. This show, sound, lights, coreography, presentation, all just amazing. Maynard does not dissapoint! The venue was absolutely beautiful too, Louisville Palace.

This was my second time seeing Puscifer. Somehow, they outdid themselves. The BEST show I've seen. Fully entertaining, musically amazing.

Just go... Spend the money just go...this was a great show, it exceeded what I expected and was worth the night...

Best Rock show I have seen in Raleigh since A Perfect Circle 10+ years ago.

Phenomenal show. As engaging as you care to think, our as simple as you care to be entertained. There were several times I caught myself completely alone in the theater, only to be shocked back into the collective with a blast of light... And I was completely sober. I hope puscifer comes back to raleigh soon. Don't be a dummy, go see puscifer.

Maynard's voice is like wine, it gets better with time. Awesome vocals awesome show. I loved it!

Puscifer is an unforgettable experience. The sound was crisp and absolutely mesmerizing. The overall play on lucha libre wrestling made for a fun show full of humorous moments. I can't wait to see Puscifer again! Absolutely loved it!

Man what a treat, another exquisite show from Mr.Maynard James Keenan

Do not miss this show. If you're on the fence, do it. The sonics and visuals of this show are outstanding. The dual vocals between Maynard and Carina... outstanding. The harmonies and musicianship by the band (featuring folks from Ministry and A Perfect Circle)... outstanding. This is an audio-visual onslaught, some parts heavy, some parts light, always atmospheric and completely engrossing.

Puscifer is one of the most amazing artistic musical performances ever. It is more than a show. It's an unforgettable experience. Maynard is a god. Carina is goddess.

I had Front Row VIP tickets for this show. (my fourth time seeing them). Being that close and witnessing a show from a band I admire so much was indescribable. I was so happy the entire time and the sound was amazing. Not too loud or soft at all. Seemed perfect to me! I'd pay the money again in a heartbeat. Worth every penny. If you ever have doubts of purchasing a ticket to see Puscifer, stop it. It's such a great time and they are just fantastic live. Everyone should see this musical collective at least once.

This was the best show, completely different than the other two tours I've seen previously. These shows are packed full of details and I was able to retain crucial key points: "don't be a dummy." I did learn how to drive my Lotus better, and safer. I feel like I'm a better person having just been to the show. My iq went from Mensa to mrdd, but backwards. After the show, I had to fly to Pittsburgh to see the show again, after I'd already seen it in Prescott during a snowstorm. Now, I'll go to Detroit tonight, but ima bring my own water. Looking forward to for twenty in one of my Favourite cities: Louisville!

My 7th Time Seeing Puscifer! This Was one of the Best , Sound, Venue and Crowd! Very Few Maynardiacs Screaming (almost None) The Shubbert Is Such a Beautiful Theater and the Sound Was Great. Loved All the new song! Maynard had a Moment of Silence for the Paris Shootings. (and People actually Shut up) The Drummer Started to cry! All in All A Great Evening! Go See them If you Can. Thinking about NY tonight. But I am Going to Albany Tomorrow! See you There

Similar to the first time that I heard Puscifer, I listened to the entire album a few times to figure out just what the hell it is. Money Shot is as good as any other of their releases - each is ear candy and has the creativity and musicianship that stands out from most of what is coming out these days. No one my age should get as excited as I do when I hear that one of the bands that I like is releasing a new album. Puscifer is one of the very few bands that creates that excitement. Now for the show. I saw these guys at Ovens in Charlotte during the Conditions... tour and loved the show. I bought tickets for this show the day they were released and would go back and see it again if I was lucky enough to be close to one of the other dates. The stage show was typical Puscifer - entertaining and a bit odd. The music, the talent, the song choices - all top notch. While the entire band is built on great musicians, Jeff Friedl has become one of my favorite drummers out there. He is impeccable and was a focal point on each of the last couple of tours. His set was front and center for this show. Paul Barker, Mat Mitchell, and Juliette were also great and the partnership of Maynard and Carina on vocals truly sets this group apart. While the new album is great, I would have loved to hear more of the old stuff. Anything more from "V", "C", or "Confitions.." Would be great. They could be on stage for 4 hours and there would be no throw-away songs. I am very happy that I was introduced to this band and will buy anything that they release and will see them live for a truly entertaining show anytime I have the opportunity.

Carina Round w/a couple of backing musicians opening up the show was the perfect start to would be an incredible show from beginning to end. Even sick, she sang wonderfully and hearing a few things off the forthcoming album has made me want to pre-order it. From there, Carina left the stage and a screen came down to show a hilarious "tour documentary" featuring Maynard's hillbilly character. It was entertaining and offered some back-story into this little twisted redneck theme we see popping up here and there with Puscifer. When the actual Puscifer show started, it wasn't a curtain being pulled back or some huge kick drum rocking the place - it was, instead, Maynard pulling and Airstream trailer behind him. He parked it and went into an insightful monologue and then the show started. Each song sounded great, getting better and better as the night went on. Some were enhanced live just by the energy and some were re-arranged into almost unrecognizable versions that were intriguing and ROCKED. Puscifer interacted with the crowd, drank wine, and offered a laid back atmosphere in between powering through songs. An encore of Tumbleweed was a perfect way to end the night.

Maynard is the man! I'm a Maynard fanatic, seen him w tool and apc at least 15 times but the first for puscifer, I was blown away. If you've ever went to a tool or apc show and always left wanting more Maynard then this is what you've been looking for. Maynard always make sure the fans get their moneys worth. It was electric, he gave a nice little speech about human sustainability which I was so star struck and awe I didn't really pay that close attention (regret). He proceded to play all of the songs off "conditions of my parol" and a majority off "v". Carina Round was amazing. Maynard danced like a god. It was one of the best shows I've ever seen. Oh yeah, they're serious abt no phones out! Saw two people kicked out just for having them out. Don't mess around.

First time I have seen them and it was AMAZING. I loved how the stage setup was so minimalistic, Maynard and Carina were in the back most of the time and it was truly about the WHOLE band and the music, not being the super star. GREAT show. Can't wait to see them again.

I am 41 and have seen over 50 shows in my file. The sound quality ,artistry and overall experience was as good or better than any I have ever seen. Tricky maybe older Rush shows may have came close.Do yourself a favor and see this show.Before they are so big that you will have to pay out the ass to sit in the back of a thirty thousand seat venue,

What can I say - This was absolutely the best concert I've ever been to. I'm a huge fan of Maynard, and have been to concerts with both "Tool" and "A Perfect Circle". As Puscifer is not well known, they played a very small show, and even with that - it wasn't sold out. As a result, every seat in the house was probably spectacular - though I was only 7 rows back... The music was outstanding, intertwined with comedy. The show was kept with a "low budget" look, but with a "high budget" sound. it's obvious that this band wasn't put together to make money, but merely to have some fun. Even though everyone had their own seat in this small theatre, few people even sat down. I stood with my date the whole show...the vibe was of a quiet club, I danced through the whole show.

This was my 2nd time seeing the show as I flew up to Atlantic City to see them back in May. Let me start by saying Maynard is my favorite artist. His attention to detail in his music, lyrics and concert stage are 2nd to none and this show is nothing less. Most people who like Rock have seen TOOL but many of those same people haven't given Puscifer a chance. Shame on you! Go to this show... you won't be disappointed!

I was excited about seeing the band after seeing Tool in January. I also plan to go to Voodoo Fest in New Orleans on Halloween! I loved the show and it was definitely awesome!

I went to the first show and the last show of the Money Shot Tour part 2... Both shows were excellent, the drummer is so amazing, really, the hardest working member on stage- and Maynard knows this and puts the drum kit front and center! The show was slightly different, probably just changed it up to prevent boredom on the road... was awesome!!

I don't want to spoil anything. Go see them if you can. Be surprised.

Infinite Love is the Only Truth, Everything Else is Illusion.

From their opening act Luchafer,comical wrestling but very athletic and Puscifer shows you a very wide range of talent awesome show!

This was the 3rd or 4th time I have seen them in the last 365days. I wanted to say thanks for adding San Diego "Dago" to the north American tour before going to Europe. Maynard and Karina have amazing pipes and sounded just as good as the last few shows I saw in December. Excellent interactive stage, blah blah blah

The most amazing show I've ever seen. Not a dull moment. Well planned and executed.. I'm only a casual Puscifer fan but I will never miss one of their shows again.

Fantastic venue and excellent show! Great evening overall.

My only complaint is that this concert wasn't longer, so much great music was not played!

Amazing show as always. This is my 3rd time seeing them this year.

I love these guys. I have followed them for years now and this was the second show I saw on their Money Shot tour. Paid big $$ for the VIP tickets and sat very close to the stage. Unfortunately the sound in this place was horrible, the mics were having problems the whole time, you could see Carina trying very hard to be discreet and yet tell the techs to adjust the sound levels for everyone performing. After seeing them in Grand Rapids and having that be probably the best concert experience I have ever had, this place was a huge bummer. Ill never miss an opportunity to see them live but Ill never fly to Tuscon for a concert again.

Being a big MJK fan I have seen Tool and A Perfect Circle a few times, this was my first time seeing his pet project, Puscifer, and it did not disappoint. The show was fantastic from top to bottom, a crazy mix of Luca Libre wrestling, rock concert, staged performances and audio and visual insanity. Luchafer is a Lucha Libre act having a wrestling match to warm up the crowd. While the crowd was interested for most of the time, a little spice would have helped. When the fifth member came in with the drinks and Queen B played, the crowd woke up a little. When it came time for Puscifer to take the stage things were great. While they don't move around during the performance, Conditions of my Parole aside, the visuals projected behind them and the slight but well timed movements made up for it. The members of Luchafer also came out and had staged fights that even involved the band from time to time, it was well needed. Overall, I would see Pusicfer again in a heartbeat. That show was one of the best I have ever seen.

If you're a fan of James Maynard Keenan, wrestling, or great music...or even all three, go see Puscifer! This is one of the best shows I've ever been to and I've seen Tool twice, Primus and The Chocolate Factory, and recently Fear Factory. Puscifer had a great stage show and great music that was authentic and played together as one cohesive unit. My friend, who attended with me and is a musician himself, noted that they were on time and playing in sync the whole show, which was a 2 hour set by themselves with only a few breaks between acts (there were 4 of them total) for Luchafer to do some wrestling for a few minutes each time. It looks like Maynard is happy playing with this group of characters, which is an impressive set. You have Paul Barker from Ministry (the one that helped form their sound back in the day), the drummer from A Perfect Circle, and Carina Round (who is an impressive singer and Maynard even calls her his "co-singer"). The other two musicians, the guitarist and Mahsa Zargaran, are very good at what they do. It is 2.5 hours of entertainment and it is worth the money to go check it out. Only complaint is that there isn't a whole lot of heavy songs in their set right now, minus "Money Shot" and one more song, but they may decide to head down that route in the future. Go see Puscifer when the opportunity presents itself, you will not be disappointed.

Maynard has a beautiful voice and the acoustics at Duke Energy were amazing.:)

It was a really interesting show. The opening act was a wrestling match. Did not expect that. But that is what Manyard is known for the unexpected. The sound and lights were awesome. The band was really tight.

Very theatrical and entertaining. Maynard & Co. were amazing as always. One of my favorite Puscifer shows to date!

Puscifer was awesome and this was my sons first concert and it was unforgettabe....the orpheum was great...everyone who worked there was really nice and PUSCIFER WAS AWESOME....we will deffinantly be back....

It was my first time seeing Puscifer live. I have always been a fan of their music but to get the full experience, witnessing them live is a must!

This was my first time seeing Puscifer in concert and they did not disappoint. Watching the Lucha libre wrestling match was hilarious and a very unqiue way to start off a concert. After listening to the band over the years and then finally getting to see them live was great. MJK is spectacular as always (I've seen Tool before). I would definitely like to see them again and I hope they come this way again soon!

I was a bit apprehensive about spending the money for the VIP tickets expecting just a few knick knacks and decent seats. Aside from all of the autographed items, shirt, luchador mask etc, the show itself was worth more than I paid. The most amazing show I've ever seen. Not just music but an entire event. It perhaps has ruined all other events to come. Quite an impressive display for it to be all independent. If you have the opportunity to go don't pass to see artists of this caliber perform with such a devotion to something.

First time seeing Puscifer. The band is an amalgamation of so much talent from various backgrounds. Hard to encompass the amount of amazing I witnessed. All the members are established but play with the verve you'd find in a starving artist. Beautiful. Raw. Pushing. Emotional. Open. Engaging. Best show I've ever seen. Really hoping they put out another live DVD.

Really nice venue. Acoustics for the venue were good. Performance by Puscifer was amazing as always!

Good mix of entertainment, art, and phenomenal music! Corina's voice too...awesome stuff!

First time I have seen Keenan play...and it was AWESOME.

This was a multimedia experience one has to see! It was 1/3 perfected light and sound concert explosion, 1/3 performance art cheesiness, and 1/3 Lucha Libre!!! What could go wrong?

If I had a genie in a bottle offering me a few wishes, seeing Puscifer live again would probably be one of them. They are that good live that they would make it on my list of last-day-of-life wishes. Goodbye and thank you Puscifer, you have been an encouter like noone else in my life.

If you are a fan of puscifer, tool, or a perfect circle I would definitely make it a priority to see one of MJK's shows live. The opening act was a Luchador wrestling match and they were engaged in the entire performance which was simply awesome. I was a little nervous that they wouldn't be in top form for such a small venue, but Keenan, Round, and everyone seemed very into their performance and it was worth every cent. See them if you can it is well worth it, best band on the planet right now imo.

Original, creative, atypical and totally outstanding. The sound, the performance, the harmonizing vocals were captivating. It's such a relief and a joy to experience outstanding music when there is so much crap out there. I loved it so much that I bought a ticket for the next night's show as well!

Very tight show. Fun to watch, sound was perfectly mixed.

The venue was great and Puscifer puts on a show that is above and beyond anything your used to seeing! If you haven't seen them yet, you gotta go if they come to your arearliest. Maynard and crew are unbelievably awesome and amazing!

What a great show. I didn't think Puscifer could top their last tour but creative genius Maynard never stops reinventing himself or his music and keeps getting better each time. I would have never thought that incorporating a pro wrestling ring and 5 unbelievably talented athletic wrestlers into a Puscifer concert could be so entertaining but it was non-stop entertainment. Maynard and Carina's voices blend so well and they both were in top form. The addition of the keyboard player enhanced the sound and her voice was also a perfect fit singing back up and harmonies.

Amazing show- been to many many concerts in my life One of the best- sound was incredible and the band played better then the LP on my system - that's pretty amazing Many have never heard of this band Maynard is better known for his talent with Tool and Perfect Circle The BAND is incredible' thank you for an awesome night thanks TJ for turning me onto these guys

This was my third time seeing Puscifer and the show is still amazing. I love how they perform in beautiful theaters with comfortable seating (even though everyone ends up standing anyway). It was nice to finally see a more comical tour. It's an experience every Maynard fan should have at some point. You are guaranteed to see some serious talent while he puts forth every effort not to be in the spotlight. It's refreshing to see a band break the typical set-up and actually showcase everyone involved. The music is, of course, fantastic and all the more intense live. I am a little sad that the VIP package has gone up so much in price, but it was expected. They are an independent label and it's worth being front and center for at least one show. I feel I should also mention the band members who do venture out after the show are very friendly. Somehow I always bump into Carina on my way out. If you haven't seen them, you're missing out.

The themes and messages were potent. Including the Mexican wrestling, performer's outfits, and hair, this was a visually and musically metaphorically rich evening. Messages in the songs were visually presented with theatrical genius. The entire band is loaded with talent, but Carina added so much depth and richness to the music and the show that I have to admit she stole my attention. Her voice, guitar skills,dance moves, hair... Heartthrob. My kinda feminist. Amazing artist. Blah, blah, blah. Great job Maynard adding her. My first MJK show was when Tool warmed up the audience for Rage Against The Machine in London, 1993. Been a decent fan since. The Puscifer project resonates with me way more than Tool does, I'm a pretty chipper guy. The messages from Puscifer.

Awesome show!! Sound is so clean, vocals amazing. I wish I could follow them around the country and see every show!

The most unique show yet, another Maynard jewel! It was a perfectly obscure fit between music and entertainment touching on every emotion from joy to climax.

I have seen Puscifer 5 times, 3 times on this tour. And they never disappoint. You should always expect the unexpected with this ensemble. From the opening and intermission entertainment, to the set up of the stage, and the general dynamic of the band, it's a not miss the fact that their music can't really be categorized into a specific genre is intriguing enough on its own. But you get to pair that with flawless music and intoxicating lyrics. Truly unforgettable!! Finally the voices of Maynard and Carina coupled with their complimentary vibes is the biggest bonus. Go see this show!!!!

Puscifer never disappoints, always an incredible show!

This show was amazing!!! I've seen puscifer 2 other times and this hands down was the best show out of all of them!!! I had an amazing time. An can't wait to see them again!!! It was a fantastic night. An I drove 2 in a half hours to see the show. It was definitely worth it!!! I brought my mom with me because loves puscifer as well. That was my Mother's Day gift to her. She's 58 and absolutely loved it!!!

Incredible music and performance art. This band is one of a kind. Whether or not you are a fan of Mr. Keenan's other projects, treat yourself to the Puscifer experience.

Excellent show. Great visuals. Very entertaining and engaging. They kicked some serious butt! They sounded amazing! I wish they would come to The Paramount again, because I really want to see them again!!!

The show was awesome they sounded great the theme and the opening act was great

The band is super tight and hard working. Carina's voice melds perfectly with Maynards. The band is in top form. A must see !

We will never know world peace until three people can simultaneously look each other in the eye

One of the best shows I have seen! Great sound and an amazing venue. The band itself was the best of course!

Not too many people can move energy around in a show in such a fashion as they do. If only I can see them again and again and again each and every week, will I find something else to maybe do one day as I journey through the timeless classics of all of Maynards madness unable to get out of my own way unless I really want to.

Maynard James Keenan is great but the entire band of puscifer is awesome. This is my third time seeing them and I love the humor they always put with the music and they are always a great time.
