Matchbox Twenty

First off, hats off to the crew for MB20. With the forecasted storms, they got the show moved indoors to Mid-America Center which was great foresight. Rob and the guys rocked it! Unexpected lightning strike took out their monitors, so Rob did an impromptu accoustic while they fixed the problem. Then came back and played the rest of the set that was interrupted. They gave it their all and it was a great show! I'll definitely see them the next time they are in town!

Matchbox 20 put on a fantastic show! Rob Thomas showed off his amazing vocals and the concert was not cut short.

Perfect evening! High energy performance, emotionally moving! I love how Rob T can connect with such a large crowd - it's a special gift that makes that band still relevant.

Matchbox Twenty delivered a spectacular performance! If you can still purchase tickets to one of their concerts during this tour, DO IT!! Anyone with a ticket already, you will not be dissapointed. Rob Thomas is an incredible performer and they truly did sound better in person, if that seems possible. Strong, fun, emotional performances and the crowd/fans were fantastic also.

Great sound! Awesome show! Would pay again to see them.

They are great and so underated. A terrific band and show

What a great experience! Matchbox Twenty puts on a great show, and Phillip Phillips was wonderful. The staff at the Majestic really added to the evening, being so friendly and entertaining themselves.

amazing group and musicians. jammed all night long

Band was great but the music was WAY too loud. People were leaving after only a few songs were played. I survived until about ten songs had been played, but had my fingers in my ears for the last three. My husband didn't make it that long. It was so loud that it was literally painful. Didn't want to leave, but had to, so we followed the parade of folks departing early. We felt like we were being assualted by the sound. Next time, we'll bring ear plugs. Never thought we would need them at the Majestic.

One of the best concerts I've been to in my 52 years. Right up there with Tom Petty. Phillip Phillips was cool to listen to. Kid has a cool style. Rob Thomas sounds spot on and played for 2 hours. It's obvious that he really wants the audience to have a night to remember. I'm going again in Austin and sure am glad I bought that ticket when I had the chance.

kIcked butt in San Antonio last night! Thank God they are back together. Nobody plays for 2 solid hours anymore. Can't wait for their next show in the area.

They put on a great concert. Not many bands sound better live than on their album.

I have seen Matchbox twice in Grand Prairie Texas and at the Winstar Casino in Oklahoma. Their performance is second to none. In my opinion when you go to a concert you want the music and voices to be just the same as the cd. They are always spot on. Rob Thomas' voice is always fantastic!! And the music is always great. If you get a chance you must see them. I am excited to see them again at Winstar 2/1/13!!!

this was my second Matchbox 20 concert, the first was in 2001 in Rosemont, IL, with Everclear. It was also my second Alanis concert. I have one Matchbox CD, 'Yourself or Someone Like You'. I also have a single, 'Bent'. I recall Matchbox coming out to a Johnny Cash song, 'Cut You Down'.

Matchbox puts on an incredible show! I have been to over 30 concerts in my 33 years of life and Matchbox is definitely the best by far!!

Matchbox Twenty did not disappoint! They were on for almost 2 1/2 hours and how can you NOT sing along to EVERY song?! They did two encores. Just awesome!

This concert was amazing, Matt was awesome and Matchbox Twenty played for 2 hours of majic!

Perfect show! Opening act was funny/ talented. MB20 was AMAZING. I laughed, cried, danced, sang, listened, & loved. Outstanding instrumental. Rob's voice still sounds wonderful. Loved every song.

20 Yrs later and they still kick butt!! Daughter's first concert!! Loved every minute!! Can't wait to see them again!!

I had so much fun!!! Great set up great band. Had an amazing evening.

Show was amazing! I love going to shows at the zoo. This was my first time hearing MB20 live. Rob sounds nothing short of perfect playing live. I love it when musicians sounds like their CDs. Real talent! :)

Phenomenal show at a beautiful, small venue at the Toledo Zoo. No cover, so early rain was an issue, but show itself was worth every minute!

We traveled from Florida to Orange Beach AL for this show and it was hands down worth it!! Both acts brought their A game and I can not wait to see both of these acts next time they come around!!

The boys still have it. They look and just as amazing as they did 20 years ago. I'm so glad to say I was able to see Rob Thomas as a solo artist, and Matchbox Twenty. They are tied for the best concert I've ever been to. I think everyone who loves good music (and women who love staring at hot guys), needs to see either Matchbox 20 or just Rob Thomas, atleast once in their lifetime. They did pretty much all the songs you would tell someone if you were to be asked what do they sing. I knew what song was next, just after listening to the first 5 seconds of the song. I wish I could give them more than a 5 star rating.

I have been a MB20 fan since I was 15 years old and heard "Push" for the first time. This makes my 3rd MB20 concert and they have never disappointed! Even with a cold, Rob Thomas was amazing. Opening act, Matt Nathanson, was great acoustically and really funny. Enjoyed every minute!

I have been to hundreds of concerts and they are by far the best sounding. They sounds better than their albums.

Let me first start out saying that MB20 has been my all time favorite band since I was 6. 21 years later and I'm still in love with them. Rob Thomas is absolutely amazing in every way. Monday, August 7, 2017 I had my dream come true when I went to their concert in Rogers, AR. I know it sounds ridiculous, but as soon as I saw Rob, I legit started ugly crying. I was so overcome with emotion. We didn't have the best seats but definitely not the worse either. The concert was AMAZING. The best I had ever seen. Counting Crows was there and they were OK, but honestly we were so disappointed that they didn't sing Mr.Jones. How do you not sing your most popular song ever? Rivers and Rust opened the show and they were great. So fast forward to Wednesday and I'm dying to see them again. I search for upcoming shows and find PIT tickets for Southaven! I couldn't believe it! So my sis in law went the following Friday on the 11th to see them yet again. CC didn't show up, which was fine with us because MB20 sang more songs. Matt Nathanson opened for them this time and he was hilarious and great live. Let me tell you all, I didn't think I could have a better night than the their first concert, I was wrong. Being on the PIT with my favorite band was AMAZING. I got the BEST videos and photos of them. With numerous ones of Rob staring straight at my camera. They all gave it everything they had and Rob was literally pouring with sweat by the end of the show. His voice was perfect during both shows and sounded exactly like his records, only even better. I cannot recommend them enough! Go see them!! I have been to so many concerts in my life with most of them being in the PIT, and none of those compared to these two shows. My sis in law agrees. Don't waste any more time. Go buy tickets right now! If I could afford it, I would be their roadies and just follow them for all of their shows. That's how great they are. I also got a guitar pick that one of them through at the end of the show!! Now, all I have to do is meet the guys and I can die happy.

I saw his show 20 years ago and they were just as amazing now as they were 20yrs ago.

High energy show! Played all their hits for 2 full hours.

This was my first time to see Matchbox Twenty! WOW! These guys are full of energy, talent and so entertaining! I knew it'd be great, but it was amazing!! Rob Thomas and guys gave it their all! And it was hot that evening! I see them again in Orange Beach just a few days away. Knowing what I know, I'm more excited about the second show than I was the first!! =)

This was one of the best concerts ever!! They sounded great and put on a great show!

This band never disappoints! Impressive entertainers

Matchbox Twenty were amazing performers - worth paying for the good seats if you're a fan! We paid for lower level VIP seats, and they were amazing. Counting Crows was also great. Both bands have true passion for their profession even after 20 years performing. One of the best concerts I've attended. I would highly recommend.

Overall ambiance was so awesome!!! The whole group was great. All songs was awesome! Rob Thomas sounded great, band slso sounded great!!! Unforgettable, please come back to Honolulu for another concert!!!

I really enjoyed the Matchbox Twenty and Goo Goo Dolls performance. I was a huge fan in the 90's. It was awesome. I would definitely go watch them again. They rocked!!!

I loved the GOO GOO DOLLS concert. They are my favorite band!!! My best friend and I had Fabulous Seats! The sound was incredible. Matchbox 20 ROCKED also! So glad that we went!

Kate earl was different but had a beautiful voice ! Googoo dolls were got better as they went. The music overwhelmed ther voices sometimes! Rob Thomas was full of life and energy!! He new exactly what to say to the crowd to get them pumped up! It was amazing ! My wife was absolutely in a trance the whole time matchbox 20 was one stage!

Great show. Would definitely do it again!!!!!!!!!!

Great performance by the Goo Goo Dolls. They are always right on. Matchbox 20 was very energetic and entertaining! The band is fabulous.

Amazing! Matchbox Twenty was great! thought there might be so slow parts with their songs having been played so much on the radio but even the really popular ones were freshened up with the stage play and Rob's charisma. Goo Goo Dolls could have played all night too - they were great!

From the amazing opening act of Kate Earl, to the rocking sound of the GooGoo dolls finishing with the energy and love of music of Matchbox 20 this was just a Great night for music. It helped that you have a perfect night, weather wise, and it could not be better. But it could, I would've liked to see at least one performance with all the artists together. That would have been the icing son the cake of this awesome musical treat!

Great show. Good for hardcore fans and casual fans alike.

Didnt get there in time for the opening show but te Goo Goo Dolls were terrific!! I also loved Matchbox Twenty..they played a lot of hits. Jones Beach Theatre is the best place to see a show!!

Great show all around. I'd recommend seeing either band whenever you can.... being on the same ticket was a bonus!

The best show ever. Saw mb20 in 2004 and loved them. They are back and even better than ever. Saw Goo Goo Dolls for first time in 2011 and Johnny and the guys are fantastic. Love every song they put out. Lyrics mean everything and both these bands have a God given gift of writing. Can't wait to see them again.

LOVED the show! Goo Goo Dolls were amazing, they put on quite a performance. Matchbox Twenty were fabulous. Each time I see them, they get better and better. Englishtown performed live is unbelievable, Rob's voice on that song is so emotional. I've seen them live many, many times and have to say this show was one of their best!

Amazing show! The bands were great together. Well matched. Enjoyed Kate Earl also.

The show was awesome. Went to the concert as a Goo Goo Dolls fan and found Matchbox 20 to be very impressive. Both bands are pros. Played both old favorites and new songs.

The Goo Goo Dolls were great ! First time seeing them and would definitely go see them again . Match Box Twenty are my favorite I think they were awesome and always are. Rob Thomas always sounds amazing . I would recommend to everyone to go to there shows. Can't wait until they come around again. Love those guys !

It was awesome to see both Matchbox 20 and Goo Goo Dolls play back to back! They both have honed their talents over the years and it showed! Thank you for a memorable experience!

Absolutely fantastic concert!!! Matchbox Twenty was amazing. Very high energy, nonstop show. They played a variety of their hits from their newest songs back to their very first hits. Very enjoyable show. The lights & stage effects were great! Can't wait to see them again!!!!

This was such a great concert! There was a great mix of old favorites and new songs from their album North!! My new faves: Radio and She's so Mean! Next time I will be in the floor crowd!!!! Hoping Rob Thomas gets a little daring and crowd surfs.... Maybe?? :) Two thumbs up for this one!

My mom bought a four-pack of tix for my daughter, a friend of hers, Mom and me. We were meeting 10 other family members to celebrate 2 members' birthdays. Mom passed on July 2nd. The concert was sentimental and heart-felt by those of us left behind to celebrate. Awesome show! A long-lasting memory was created for sure!

I didn't consider myself a huge MB20 fan, so I think my expectations were mild. Boy did I underestimate this show. MB20 put on an excellent show and sounded fabulous. These guys can play the hell out of their instruments. Engineering of lights/sound was flawless. Rob Thomas, though he can't dance, is an excellent performer and his voice was spot on. I have a new found appreciation and respect for these guys. Guitarists blew me away. The Goo Goo Dolls were good. I would give them 3 out of 5 stars. They need to remember that rock-n-roll is about emotion and that needs to come out in the singing. Some songs sounded like they just wanted to get through the set and move on. And the bass player was really hard to watch and listen too. I didn't sign on for a heavy metal show.

I have to admit I was suprised, Goo Goo Dolls - Johnny Rzeznik and Matchbox Twenty's - Rob Thomas can still sing and play! Goo Goo dolls provided a strong opening act, playing alot of the tunes you came to see them for and a couple of new ones. In the end, Matchbox Twenty rocked the house. Rob Tomas still sounds like the Rob we listen to on CD's and digital. We walked away feeling like we got back every dollar we paid for... Props to the band!

A wonderful way to spend two hours! Rob Thomas and the band really gave the fans a treat and show their appreciation by playing an extended set of their new and classic songs. Not many bands play for 2 hours anymore and it's refreshing to experience it when they do.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE MB20! I go to about 10 concerts or more a year & MB20 are ALWAYS one of the very best! Love their performance, love their setlist, love their energy, love the way they sound! Truly an incredible concert! Their setlist was from their first song, through their latest song & everything in between. I would highly recommend MB20 for the entire family!

First off, let me say that Kate Earl (the opener) did a fantastic job on her first major tour. She's got a beautiful voice and good stage presence. Next came the Goo Goo Dolls. I actually saw them in concert when I was about 15 at my local university (Oklahoma State) and they were every bit as good now as they were then. Love their old and new music and they did a great job! Matchbox 20, however, MADE the show. They are so much fun to watch and they really get the crowd involved. Loved the mix of old and new. My husband and I loved that both of these bands that we were obsessed with in high school have made it this far. Longevity in music is hard to achieve, but 17 years later, both bands are still rockin hard. We loved it!

I purchased VIP tickets for my Mom for Mother's day, she loves Matchbox 20. The VIP experience was one of the best, most well-organized that we have attended and the concert was AWESOME!!! All acts were amazing! A go see for sure!!!

My daughter and I attend a couple of concerts a year when we can, this rates right up there with the BEST! Great seats and awesome music.

Excellent concert. Goo Goo Dolls did a great job opening for MB 20.

This show and venue did not disappoint. This is the 12th MB20 show I have seen over the last 14 years and clearly one of the best. Rob and Kyle always come to entertain. Goo Goo Dolls have a renewed energy about them and I loved the new music. Kate Earl, first time I had heard of her, has a voice range like no other I have experienced at a live rock concert. Long Live MB20!

I have loved Matchbox Twenty since college and have never had a chance to see them(Im 40 now), they were AMAZING! Rob Thomas was very entertaining. As far as the Goo Goo Dolls, I also enjoy them but I have to say they sound better on the radio. As a big music fan and concert attendee, a major pet peeve of mine is when a band actually announces they "have" to sing a certain song since it is the song that they are known for but act disgusted that they have to sing it and Goo Goo Dolls did just that right before they sang Iris. They must understand that without those hit songs that grab the new fans they do not acquire loyal fans, so embrace your hit tunes even though you have sang them a million times and are sick of hearing yourself sing it, the fans love it!

Best concert I have been to! Great live performances! First John from GGD sounded great and put on a great show. They sang a perfect combo of old and new! Set list was great! MB20 was awesome as well! Rob gives his all every time I've seen him. It's refreshing to see a live show where the performers can actually sing live and sound great!

The show was awesome. I've been a fan of both bands for a very long time and this was the first time I'd seen either live. They didn't disappoint.

I've seen Matchbox20 a few times and they are always great this one was no exception. They sounded fantastic, and did old and new songs and even a cover in the encore which is always special. Their rendition of jumpin jack flash was awesome. I can't get enough of them. Kate Earl opened and I thought she had a strong voice. Enjoyed her bluesy set, but she needs a better band behind her. Goo goo dolls were enjoyed by their fans in the arena. I was there for MB20 and can't wait to see them again

These bands are great on the radio, you realize what talented musicians they are with the live performance. Both bands played a balanced setlist that included new hits and old favorites. Goo Goo dolls lead singer passed the vocals to the bassist a few times, this would be my only negative critique of the show. Matchbox Twenty was stellar, Rob Thomas' vocals have only grown stronger and more soulful over the years. The whole band is top quality, the lead guitarist is amazing. P.S. Ticket prices were very reasonable.

I had one of the best times of my life! Both bands were outstanding. Made great friends, singing along to all of the songs! Best concert I have been to. Wish we could have been a little closer so they could hear us screaming and singing along. Loved the new stuff as much as the hits! Hope they come around again! Can't wait to download my copy of the concert.

Matchbox 20 was so great!! Rob Thomas played so hard the entire time! Such a great band and performance. Goo Goo Dolls were good as well, but Matchbox 20 made the concert totally worth it!!

The songs and performances were really good. As a hardcore MB20 fan I can be biased but undoubtedly it was a very fun concert. Both Goo Goo Dolls and Matchbox Twenty picked some very good songs. Not familiar with the opening act but still decent and fun. Weather was not cooperative and had been raining and down pouring at various times during the event. Puddles everywhere and traffic was a little chaotic especially after the concert was over. Took 40 minutes to get out of the parking lot because there was not sufficient traffic control.

I have loved the Goo Goo Dolls and Matchbox 20 since they came out when I was in middle school. I have seen each of them on separate occasions but it was like a dream come true to see them icon one tour together. The crowd was a great mix of old and young and even though it poured the majority of the evening it didn't seem to dampen anyone's spirits. It started with Kate Earl opening for them and she was surprisingly wonderful. I loved her voice and I felt like she was channeling Janis Joplin, whom I also love. Then the Goo Goo Dolls came on and they were awesome. At that point I did realize that perhaps Johnny's voice has changed as he got older but my god I still love their work! Then the highlight of my evening, Rob Thomas. I have spent many nights reading the lyric jacket in those Matxhbox 20 cd covers and to see them live again was phenominal. I can't complain, my seats were decent (of course who wouldn't wanna be closer) the people around my were tolerable, the drinks were cold and I got to see two of the bands who have always been on my bucket list. All I'm all a fabulous night and one for the record books.

It was amazing seeing two of my favorite bands perform. What I didn't like about the concert was that the audience didn't seem to know any of the goo goo dolls songs, they cheered when they "thought" it was over. Kinda got annoying. They all obviously went to see Rob Thomas. Either way the concert was memorable :)

This was a nice combination of bands that I have wanted to see perform for a long time. It seems a little funny to say that Matchbox Twenty is a "classic" band, but they've been around for nearly 20 years (hey, the Beetles were "classic" in the 1980s) and hit all the high points in their music set. I left the show feeling like I heard all the tunes I wanted to hear. It was one of those shows where I knew the lyrics (...no, I don't dare sing out loud) to every song they played. The stage configuration was good though they mainly stayed up front. Some performers don't sound as good in person, probably because they've been cranking out the same music night after night, but Rob Thomas hit every note. They were on for about 80 minutes, which seemed a little short but there were no breaks and they did a 3-song encore. The Goo Goo Dolls put on a good show too. They also hit the high points, and the stage was an appealing mix of lights and projections. However, the Goo Goo Dolls need to take some tips from Matchbox Twenty: "Learn the name of the city where you are performing and mention it at least once". We in the audience like it. A lot. While we know you will not be hanging out with the locals and just heading out of town as soon as the lights come up, it gives at least a little inkling that you are interested in our particular performance. Having said that, John Rzeznik put a lot of energy into the show. Oh, and I didn't know Robby Takac could sing (still not sure it should be outside of playing at a good bar). I suppose they let him at the microphone to give Rzeznik a break from singing the hits from the radio.

The set-list was full of awesome classics and new song from their new album North. Rob sang really well, and all the songs came out really well. There was some crowd interaction, but I was kinda hoping for more. I had a blast! This concert brought me back to my childhood.

Both acts were great! Would love to see this show again!

The concert was incredible. Philip Phillips opened and their minimalism set the night. No fancy lights or distractions, just the band. The sound was good and the audience loved it. One cannot say enough about Matchbox Twenty. The entire band was engaging in a performance for remembering. Rob Thomas thoroughly enjoys what he does and they are down to earth. They interact with the audience and ..... I JUST LOVED IT! I would go again tonite in a heartbeat.

Loved the show - they played a good mix of old and new songs. I was very glad to see Rob at the piano - that was my highlight. Lighting was very cool! Braden Auditorium has excellent acoustics for concerts!

Wow, where to begin? This band is so amazing and talented at what they do and Rob's voice just makes everything that much better! They not only play some songs off of their current album, but they also played many of their old stuff. Unforgettable concert. Was worth the 3 hour drive!

Totally awesome! I will never forget it! Best show I have ever been to.

Matchbox 20 was amazing at the Louisville Pallace! They sounded phenomenal and had great energy! They kept the crowd engaged and did a great job covering new and old music. Rob Thomas is a great front man and the rest of the band are great musicians! A must see!

The band played a very good set including a few new tunes but not too many . Demand was so strong for these tickets I was put on the far Right side and the bass was very boomy !

Matchbox Twenty put on yet another awesome performance! They reached all of the way back to 1996 and included all of their hits from throughout the years. They sounded fantastic! I love when bands sound as good, or better, live than on their record. And Matchbox Twenty does! The lighting was fantastic, also. I wish they would have had the big screens mounted on the sides of the stage so people in the audience could see a little better of what was going on onstage. Other than that, a phenomenal performance yet again!

This is my third time to see Matchbox 20 and they never disappoint! They play all my fav songs! Im not a big fan of American Idol, but I am now a huge fan of Phillip Phillips! I always like seeing concerts at Winstar too :)

Been going to their shows since the beginning of their career, and they still put on one hell of a show. Loved it!!!

i loved matchbox 20 and phillip phillips i couldnt have asked for a better performance

I first saw Matchbox 20 in 1998 in St Louis MO. Since I have seen them many times. I have drove to TN, MO, IL, IN, and even TX to see them. They are true sound. No other band can compete. I will be seeing them in Thackerville, Longview, Normal, and Des Moines this tour and I can not wait. Go see this band...you will not be dissappointed

It was the best concert I went to last year! I would go again and again. Excellent! I knew nothing could beat seeing Tom Petty and Joe Walsh on their last concert tour, but I tell you I would rate this one every bit as good and exciting. Great Music , perfection.

I have always loved Matchbox Twenty. I was estatic to hear that the event was moved to the Mid-America Center. My seats ended up being better than expected because of the last minute change of venue due to inclement weather. All in all a GREAT night!

Always loved Matchbox 20 and Rob Thomas, but never expected to see a show quite like this. High energy, amazing talent and great venue.

I had forgotten just how good their music really made me feel. It didn't take but the first song and I was singing along and really glad I bought tickets.

After going to the concert, I realized Matchbox 20 is very underrated. I bought the tickets figuring I knew a lot of their songs, it would be a mediocre concert, and a cheap way to kill a Saturday night. I left with the feeling it was one of the best concerts I've been to. A lot of "musicians" spend a lot of money on lights and special effects to hide the fact that they suck as "musicians". Matchbox 20 skipped the lights and special effects, because they didn't need them. They came out, put on a heck of a show, and you could tell they actually gave a crap about the show they put on and the music they put out. I've been to concerts that had triple the ticket price and didn't put on half the show Matchbox 20 did. Bottom line, I'd recommend them. When they do another tour, I'll go again.

This was one of the best concerts I have attended. I will be back. this was my first Stir concert.

One of the top three concerts I have ever seen!!!!

This band is considerate of their fans! They moved their originally scheduled, outdoor concert to a different venue so that it could be indoors, due to heavy rains in the forecast. This band has compassion! The opening song was a tribute to the late Tom Petty, who had died earlier that week. A Tom Petty song played, while the spotlight shown down on an empty mic. This band Rocks! I heard songs I've loved since the band began. Some I hadn't heard before, and some great covers of songs sung by other artists. This band Saves Face! In the middle of a song, lightning struck and the sound system was compromised, surprising lead singer, Rob Thomas, but not for long! The mic still worked, so he grabbed a guitar and performed a sweet acoustic rendition of Cindy Lauper's "Time after Time." This band is engaging! The fun never ends when you're at a Matchbox Twenty concert. Not only did they perform, they invited the crowd to sing along. Forget about your troubles, Thomas said, we are going to have a good time for the next couple of hours!!! Guitar picks were thrown out to an eager fan base, and just when you thought the lights were out, the concert was over, people were leaving....here they came for one last song. Sing along EVERYONE..."Don't You Forget about Me!" Matchbox Twenty, I'll never forget about you!. Thank you for a Rockin' awesome time!

High energy and happy to be on stage playing for the crowd - a great band. Rob Thomas as a solo act or with Matchbox 20......Extremely talented . Sound system always is among the best ever'

These guys give 200% and put on a fabulous show. I will go every chance I get to see these guys.

I thought this whole concert sucked. What a let down and whoever that poor excuse for an opening band was should be fired!

Matchbox 20 any better than they were the night of the concert at Mid-America, can t wait to see them again

They were AMAZING! Rob Thomas is so talented and a very good entertainer! So glad we went and had a great show!!

What was originally supposed to be an outdoor show, it was moved inside due to inclement weather. Matchbox 20 was absolutely awesome. I've seen them in the past, and their performance is always amazing. Kudos to the people in Council Bluffs for making last minute changes to move this to indoors. Otherwise it would have been a disaster.
