Keep It Dark

Best Musicans I have ever heard ! I love the blend of instruments and Glen's shout singing. Colm is an amazing violinist. You can tell these guys love what they do and in turn we love it too:)

I am a big Brooks & Dunn fan so it was with a bit of trepidation that I attended a concert with just Kix Brooks. What a wonderful evening. Kix was always smiling and enthusiastic and interacted with the crowd several times. He sang some songs on his new solo album, "New To This Town" as well as many Brooks & Dunn songs. Two of his band mates also performed solos. Kix played and sang for about 90 minutes and came back and did a three song encore. It is always a joy to watch an artist who really loves doing what he is doing perform live, and Kix is definitely one of those people.

I have heard of Juliana Hatfield over the years but never really listened to her music until I heard a track from Become What You Are on Radio Paradise a couple of years ago. I can't recall the specific track but it made an impression strong enough for me to buy (and it was hard to find) the CD. That album is very strong from start to finish and I regularly boast it to my friends as a release to check out as an opportunity to experience a gal with various and very unique talents. So I caught an announcement in the Boston Globe about the JH3 joining up for the first time since that release and I scooped the tickets. I was pleased, to say the least, that Juliana announced that they would be playing the entire Become What You Are release that night. The album has very good engineering & production and there are of course some vocal overdubs but when played live I really liked how Juliana improvised using her vocal chops, suddenly changing pitch and loudness. After that first half of the show, the band came back on to perform tracks from the new release entitled Whatever, My Love. After 21 years the band has that characteristic JH3 sound and it is a sound all their own. But there were a couple of tunes that had a notably harder/faster edge. The change in tempo and edginess took me by surprise but I really liked it and especially how Juliana laid into some raucous guitar work. So needless to say that I will be purchasing the new release. And for what it's worth, I bought a poster after the show and I give kudos to the artist. Juliana herself possesses very unique talents and it is that uniqueness with the ability to make good music that makes her stand apart. I recommend catching this gem of an artist and I will also say that she has a very likeable and yes, dare I say "cute" stage presence. She appreciated her fans and she poked some fun at her band members which brought on some laughter from the crowd. I felt fortunate to experience Juliana, her JH3 and to be in a venue well suited for the trio. She of course has Boston roots, stated that she loved the venue and is able to walk there from her home. Locality aside, she is a world class act.

My title says it all. Pavement was great. I've been waiting to see these guys for 15 years and they didn't disappoint. The venue sucked though.... the sound and the vibe at Roy Wilkins Auditorium is always terrible. There are very few bands that can get me to pay for a ticket at RW aud.

I ve been going to Sloan shows for 25 years now. This show was a shorter set and they played a lot from their new album 12 so if you re hoping for a lot of classics you will be disappointed. New album is really good so I still enjoyed myself even though I m still getting to know it. Definitely a must see for any fan!

What can you say about these guys? They're the real deal. They're everything that's ever been good about American popular music. The tongue-in-cheek "devil's music" references just make it all that much more fun. Do some finger-stretching exercises on the way to the show or you'll be sore from shootin' the devil horns all night long. The best deal you can get on a concert ticket. You'll be scratching your head afterward and wondering how $12 got your posterior rocked so thoroughly.

The great Mitzi Gaynor gave an amazing show...a great journey thru the life and history of a great entertainer...combining video montages, stories and great songs you get a complete feel of this artist...

Having seen Davy Jones perform here at Bergen PAC several years ago, I was so excited to be able to see him perform here again. His shows are always fun, full of Monkees hits and funny stories, and Davy remains a true performer. The addition of David Cassidy to the bill made this an unforgettable event. Having loved David Cassidy since my childhood, I always dreamed of seeing him live. And David Cassidy did not disappoint. His performance was wonderful - Partridge Family songs along with several other songs that he performed to perfection. Everyone around me seemed to be enjoying every minute of this concert as much as I was. Kudos to Bergen PAC for bringing these two TRUE American Idols to their stage.

I have seen this group perform and the lead singer Sydney Justin, is BETTER than Smokey Robinson, no disrespect to Smokey. But, their show is dynamic, exciting and sexy,....I am so glad they are performing in Phoenix, FINALLY.....I love this group. GO SYDNEY JUSTIN, YOU ROCK........totally worth seeing
