Barenaked Ladies

As this was the last show on the tour, BNL pranked their opener BTE by having the roadies cover the stage, instruments, and equipment with about 4 dozen ladies' bras, of different sizes and colors. During BNL's set, Ed Robertson sang the live version, modified "Pinch Me" lyrics "and change into my sister's clothes" and was then pelted with the same undergarments, which BTE had collected and passed to the front row for that very purpose. The music was great, the setting was lovely, and a good time was had by all. Did not dissappoint.

Literally the best day ever. I wish they came to Pittsburgh, but they didn t, so I travelled to Cleveland. Great venue, awesome show!

They bring plenty of energy to the show and still sound great as a band, I am a long time fan who has seen them many times but I am simply not that impressed with the post Steven Page era songs which now seem to make up 75% of their shows. There are a few I like but I think BNL needs to realize that most people who are at their shows are there for the hits. There are several early songs that Ed had the lead which they never seem to play. I don't get it. Play for the fans what they want to hear or they eventually stop showing up.

Incredibly boring show. The BNL without Steven Paige is just a shell of what they used to be. They tried to be funny, they tried to banter, but it just fell flat. The music felt like it was missing a punch, and the guys seemed like they didn't care. The most telling part of the show was that 80% of the audience SAT DOWN for almost the entire show! And then they ended the night with one of the slowest, most boring songs in their catalog. Way overpriced, uninspired concert

BNL kicked off their US tour in Atlantic City last night, but audio problems kept them from sounding their best. The Tropicana is a fantastic place to see a show. Well-sloped seating with no obstructions means there's not a bad seat in the house, but for some reason the audio on lead singer Ed Robertson's mic was too hot, and it was pretty badly distorted while he sang. It's almost as if the sound crew "went to 11" with it; both my and my wife's ears were ringing after the show and our heads were hurting pretty badly. The overall balance was pretty awful as well, as backing vocals and harmonies were drowned out by the overloud audio. I was stunned at one point to plug my ears with my fingers and finally hear the piano that was struggling trying to make it through the overamped upright bass (how did they manage that?) and guitars. I love BNL and my wife's a die-hard fan. It was a great show, especially being the first tour without Steven Page, and we were glad to see the band doing "the same, but different." We just wish the sound had been better.

Despite having and loving their new cd, I wondered if BNL would still be as amazing in concert without Page...they still are!!! The guys were very smart to start off with some favorites from the past to show the audience that they are the same, wonderful BNL we have always loved even without Page's vocals. Their mixture of old favorites and new songs from their latest cd was fantastic. It was also wonderful to see Kevin and Jim finally get to do some solos and be up front with Ed! Ed's rap about his run on the AC boardwalk & the many t-shirt shops was side-splitting funny! I wish they were going to be in the Philly area so I could go see them again!

This was the first time I saw BNL live and it was amazing....The were enjoyable and very personable to the crowd... Made you feel a part of the show..

Saw the kickoff of BNL's USA tour and thought they did a great job. They still bring the sidebars and humor you know and love. Expect to laugh and sing along!

This is only the second time I've seen them play - and although Steve is missed - I think they sounded great. We bumped into Ed after the show and he was so courtesy to take pictures with us! Their sound and songs they played from the new album were great! It was a good mix of old and new! I wish I could follow them around on tour:-)

Well--- mixed feelings about this one. Probably the 17th BNL show for me...probably the weakest. Steven Page is missed for sure BUT the others tried their best to make up for it. Sometimes it worked/sometimes it didn't. The four lads worked very hard and the new stuff, along with Ed's songs, worked quite well. But the Page stuff didnt really come off that strongly. Perhaps with a bit more practice. Strange selections of some songs...concentrate on Ed's stuff...avoid the all-out Page songs (unless they are the "in demand/must hear" variety). Interest waned a bit after the first four or five songs...BUT it WAS BNL and we haven't seen them in a long time! used to go to all the shows in the area on a tour...NOW one per tour will suffice. NICE TRY LADIES !

Excellent show. Though I was not a fan before, I am now. I took my wife to the show and really wasn't expecting much. To see these musicians taking turns playing different instruments really blew me away.

My wife and I saw then 5 years ago in Gwinnett, GA and were static when we heard they were coming closer to home. We are big fans, but were not aware Steven Page had left the band until 2 days before the concert - we even contemplated not going, since many times the remaining members of a band just can't pull it off the same way as before - but decided to go and try to enjoy. Enjoy we did...these guys still rock, and have a great time doing it. Although it was a much different atmosphere (smaller venue, not as enthusiastic crowd) we had a great time with their new songs and jammed hard with the old favorites -we definitely recommend, and would see them again, but they are not the same as before...we miss Steven, but still love the Ladies!!!!!!

Probably one of the worst concerts I have ever been to! Very Disappointed especially paying $60 a ticket. Would not recommend!!!!

The show was absolutely wonderful!! We all had a great time. I would definatly see them agan and look forward to their new release.

It was a very good show. This being the final show of the year, i was a little disappointed that it was only an hour and a half long WITH two encores.

they did not play very long and didn't play most of their top hits

A great band at a great venue! The four piece iteration was as entertaining as if it had been the original five. Hell has frozen over, the New Orleans Saints ended their winning streak and BNL ended their 2009 tour on the same night. It was great to see the band mates swapping instruments and positions on stage. Hard Rock Live is a first class facility. I plan on seeing BNL again next year and catching more shows at HRL in Biloxi.

BNL was awesome. The venue was great. I hope they make more trips to the Mississippi Gulf Coast.

the show was teriffic, sound awesome. my only complaint, and it is consistent with all "casino" shows is that the bands play for an hour fifteen at most. they come back with a short encore. and then it is over. we paid eighty per person for the show. this is too high a price for such a short show. we won't be going to casinos for music anymore. it's a shame that the entertainers play these venues. we are very "spoiled" because we are regulars at N.O. jazz fest. we get soooo much more for our money at the fest.

I have seen them before and they just weren't as good without Steve. I guess they are still trying to find their new identity.

All the guys stepped up and rocked. As usual an amazing show.

BNL 4 was amazing as always... and their new songs are great...they sang 3 new ones and we wanted more! Can't wait til they start up the Ships & Dip again! Jim's voice is amazing and should be out front more!!! Tyler's solo's are always a crowd pleaser!

Great show, incredibly entertaining. Missed the other singer, but they are still incredible.

made the drive across the desert to see BNL at Primm. the sound was GREAT in the arena. ed worked 3 different mics spread across the stage. never once thought "this is a steve song". it all just worked. they are "BNL" songs. this was my 38th show (i think). concert life slows when you get married and have a little baby. ed did a quick meet-n... Read More-greet after the show. (TY ED!) they sang a good variety with heavy STUNT songs. i was especially happy with "Life, in a Nutshell." wore my Rock Spectacle T-Shirt (an oldie!) the show reminded me of earlier BNL shows. the jazzy "Blame It On Me" was a major highlight/moment. jim was playing all over the stage too. energy was high and the overall feeling was very comfortable. nice acoustic "For You". amazing harmonies. when kevin broke out the accordian - i was hoping for "Straw Hat" ... maybe next show. They played $1000000 - hadnt heard that live for a long time. No Brian Wilson or What a Good Boy ... I think I might have missed Steve though on WAGB. so its ok. here's what they did sing (not in order though): Blame It On Me; If I Had a $1,000,000; Life, in a Nutshell; Old Apartment; One Week; Its All Been Done; Leave, Alcohol; Who Needs Sleep; Never is Enough; Too Little Too Late; Pinch Me; Go Home; Falling For the First Time; Maybe Katie; For You; Testing 1, 2, 3; Get In Line, and a couple new songs due out in march. (wow - no songs from BLAM album, hmmm.) Must be hard to a choose a set list from such a huge catalog of songs. overall: great show. (awesome seats (dead center - 7 rows back, great lighting & crystal clear sound, nice mix of old and new songs, funny improv stuff. like the old days where you can meet them after the show too. great to reconnect with the fans.) other highlights: winning at three card poker, riding the casino's "suspect maintenance" rides, and being in the middle of NOWHERE in the desert. (primm is NOT vegas.) my profile pic is the cell phone pic of me and ed. cant wait for next album and its tour. see you then! - heather

Great show!!! The band was having a great time and made it fun for the audience. My 11th BNL concert and there is something different every time. I was a little worried about how they would sound without Steven Page. There was a little something missing (mostly because I really like the songs Steven sang). The band did a great job of covering for his absence and all 4 members contributed on the vocals and harmonies. I can't wait for the new record in March 2010. Definitely a concert worth seeing. My first time at the Star of the Desert Ampitheater in Primm. Nice medium sized venue with decent acoustics. Great view from any seat.

For anyone who was scared about what the four remaining members of the Barenaked Ladies would sound like after parting ways with co-lead singer Stephen Page, have no fear!! The same fun and good time is still present with the new stream-lined band. Kevin Hearn was fabulous when he picked up the guitar. If you liked the old band, you will be just as happy with the new Fantastic Four!

The energy superb --they simply nailed it!!! Rock as it should be!!!

Wow! Imagine any one of your favorite bands continuing to perform without it's lead singer and the sound that made them unique. Anyone remember Van Halen? Although, the remaining band mates are still pressing on with their talent and humor, it was just not the same without front man Steven Page. How is that solo career going Steve?

To say this show was great is an understatement! BNL always delivers! It was fun and went by too quickly. With all their fame, they remain very humble an appreciative to their fans.

A lot of people around us coming out of the show complained about their setlist "Well, they played the songs they wanted to play, not the songs we wanted to hear." In reality though, they only missed two of their wider known songs. Was I disappointed not to hear It's All Been Done? Sure. But the concert was so much fun anyway! These guys are still hilarious and talented and provided an atmosphere of stress-free joy for an hour and forty-five minutes, and what else could you ask for out of a concert? A few songs in, I turned to the people I was with and said "I am SO GLAD we bought these tickets!"

Concert was great. BNL and BTE still know how to rock. Very entertaining show. It took me back to my college days

BNL s have a rocking great show with great bands/friends playing with them. You can tell they love what they do & work very hard to show love to their audiences.

I had heard great things about BNL s shows in the past, so I was expecting a good show. It wasn t terrible, but it wasn t good. They have likable personalities and parts of the show were good such as Another One Bites The Dust Queen cover, which was good. Their familiar songs were ok, but I felt they could have done a better job combining them. Maybe the people who sat closer had a better time, but for those of us who sat in the grass it was kind of boring. Plus the sound was just not loud enough.

It was a great show, phenomenal performers and entertainers!

I have never been disappointed watching the Barenaked Ladies live, and this was no exception. The talent they are able to gather for these Last Summer on Earth tours is astounding. I've heard Brian Wilson live every year since 2011, them singing it with KT Tunstall was hands down the best. You can argue which of these tours have been the best, but there is no arguing that these shows are the greatest.

Incredible music - incredible musicians 30 years and never dull

Fantastic show...awesome seats. Venue staff did a great job in making you feel welcome...

Great show! Entertaining and a great reminder of my high school and college years.

I ve need BNL a couple of times before but this show was by far the best. All 3 bands killed it.

This wasn t the original venue. It was nice place. All of the staff were fantastic. I paid a lot for my front row ticket, but I had an obstructive view. When I chose the seat for the other venue, the view was clear. I had to keep moving my head to see what was going on, not fun. I with Better Than Ezra played longer. The Barenaked Ladies always keep things fun. I wish they would choose some different songs when they play older material.

Show was amazing! Enjoyed Beeter than Ezra and KT Tunstall. Barenaked Ladies were awesome as usual!

Runoff location was good: gravel parking, booths selling everything! Better than Ezra had a better energy than Barenaked Ladies.

This was the best rock concert that I have ever attended. The venue (#redrockcasino) was amazing and the performers were at peak level! I loved every second!!

We have seen BNL MANY times over the years and absolutely are huge fans! Their variety of opening bands over the years have always added so much to the show and the gratefulness that is evident makes it such a joy to support all they have done. They are great entertainers, so much fun, love their songs and yes despite missing a bit of the old sound truly enjoy their energy! KT Tunstall and Better Than Ezra, both we had heard of but didn't know too much about were fantastic additions. Despite the 3 hour commute in LA traffic, which took less than half that at the end of the night, it is always a treat to watch shows at The Greek. Thanks guys for another GREAT show! Keep up the good work and thanks for the album download with the ticket purchase!

They were great!! Way exceeded my expectations. They still rock after all these years.

This was an awesome concert! Except for the storm that came in and cut KT's show short, The Bate Naked Ladies put on the best show I have been to! They got the crowd involved they were just very good!

Great concert, had a mix of new and old songs. Lots of audience participation.

As always BNL put on a great show. I've seen them many times over the past few years and I am always amazed how they keep the crowd engaged and the energy high. So much fun!

very fun! Exciting!! They know how to entertain!!!

What a great concert! I'm so glad Bare Naked Ladies came to Winston Salem! These guys put in a wonderful performance and did their homework on our city. They can rap pretty good. Not bad for Canadians.

BNL is always a great show. They guys have so much fun, interact with the crowd, and have a great set list. This time we took our kids to their first concert. My son (8) and daughter (6) decided to make signs, and we were lucky enough that the band was able to read them...and THEN took the time to speak/interact with our kids. They ended up playing a special song (Raisins), and even tossed them a Monkey (after playing "If I had a Mil $1s"), and a Drum stick at the end of the show. How can you top that?? Not sure we will..... but the guys are awesome, and we will see them anytime and every time they are back.

Great show with old and new music . Very engaging with the audience.

Amazing show! The most entertaining concert I have attended. Great music and a lot of fun!

They are always fun. Ed made sure to give kids some drumsticks and stuff. He acknowledged twins who have Asperger's that were down front. They always have entertaining stories about visiting the cities where they play.

BNL is one of the most fun concerts you could attend. They boys brang it again! They play old a new music!

Barenaked Ladies never fail to deliver a fantastic show! The Persuasions were also part of the show and added something truly special to the evening! If you ever have the opportunity to see one or both, don't pass it up!!

Our group was definitely all out 80's so we went to see OMD and Howard Jones.. OMD was probably better than I remember them when I was a kid. They put it all out there, even in the heat they were record quality. When OMD finished we decided to stick around to hear "1 Week" from BNL's.. We were amazed at how good their showmanship was.. We ended up staying the whole set just for the fact that they were so much fun! The only thing that could have made it better was if the Greek coulda turned up the A/C!! ;) Always a fantastic venue, especially in the summer evenings!

I went to this concert mainly for OMD as they are my favorite group. Howard Jones was pretty awesome as well. I don't know many BNL songs but they did a nice job and kept me interested even though I had gotten what I wanted out of OMD.

Howard Jones, OMD and BNL all played like they were having a great time. Only challange was it was about 103 degrees at the start of the concert.

Great music, great energy on stage, super fun. They are hilarious!

BNL are always fun and entertaining. Laughter, silliness, fun and music - what more could you want.

They keep the crowd very entertained w their different styles of music and chatting in between songs.

Barenaked Ladies isn't my favorite band or type of music I normally listen to. However, they're great musicians and interact with the crowd in the most genuine manner of any band I've ever seen.

My wife and I attended the Barenaked Ladies: Last Summer on Earth 2016 concert at the Rose Music Center in Huber Heights, OH on June 8th, 2016 an had a blast! This was the first time we had seen the Barenaked Ladies and hopefully not the last! The band was humorous and funny throughout the concert and their music was awesome. Having Howard Jones and OMD took us back to our ten + years in England! The Rose Music center is an awesome outdoor venue with great acoustics and a venue we would go see other concerts.

What a graet concert. So much fun. They interact with the audience.. Love that

We didn't let Mother Nature ruin this awesome show even though it rained almost the entire time. BNL puts on an amazing live show and they did not disappoint. I always love their custom raps, how they support their opening bands and their interactions with the audience. Violent Femmes and Colin Hay were good too and I love that all three performed together. Can't wait to see them again.

Even though the rain came down in drought stricken San Diego, it didn't spoil the event. We had a blast and the entire crew were hysterical!

I always have a great time at BNL shows, however this time was extra special. The opening acts were amazing - Colin Hay and Violent Femmes. BNL also welcomed them back on stage during their act which was magical. This is a show nobody should miss (unless they are grumpy and hate to have a good time!)

Barenaked Ladies put on a fantastic show! Not only do they sound good, but they are funny! I'll see them again if I get the chance.

Sandia is my favorite venue, not a bad seat in the house. Concert started on time and ran smoothly. Opening act was awesome and bare naked ladies were fun and energetic and so funny. Had a blast! Would def recommend seeing them live.

Fan or not, BNL really puts on a great show really enjoyed the evening and meeting such wonderful people!

Disappointed in the concert. Crowd not engaged because show wasn't engaging enough. Music was disappointing as well.

Great opening acts! Great show! It's hard to be unbiased here because Barenaked Ladies has been my favorite band for years. But this show was high energy and very entertaining. I'm so glad they were able to play to a sold-out show.

BNL is consistently fun to see live! They have a great time interacting with the crowd, will make up songs on the spot and even sang a song about playing a show across the from Alligator Farm (located across the street from the venue). For any diehard fans, the songs are still awesome even without Steven in the band. This was my second time getting to see them live and I will absolutely go see them again!

I've seen BNL many times. No two times are ever the same. They may play some of the same songs, but they have classics that their fans want to hear. However, as I said, no two shows are ever the same. They brought out Colin Hay to do Pinch Me and Who Can It Be Now...two of the high points. Their encore was stellar. Who knew Ed could play the drums and Tyler had a legit rock and roll voice? Tyler definitely enjoyed being the front man and it was cool to see. That's what makes a BNL show an unforgettable experience...they seem to really ENJOY what they're doing and the audience can sense it. Great show...the best I've ever seen from them.

What can I say - Colin Hay, what a joy to listen to and what a humble and funny guy. Violent Femmes - Brian Ritchie is amazing, a beast on the big acoustic bass - these guys were a blast and sounded great, first time seeing them live and won't be the last - and of course we love us some BNL.

You will not be disappointed! I am 50 years old, and darn, I really missed some great BNL concerts based on this one. I was fortunate enough to be online the morning these tickets went on sale and, my brother is always really good to my husband and me, so I thought it was time to re-pay him a little for his generosity. I was fortunate enough to score two tickets, dead center, 6th row. So, my brother is a Violent Femmes fan, and, don't get me wrong, I love the Femmes, but have always wanted to see BNL. What a combination! BNL wound there way through and around all the oldies that the audience wants and loves, but also introduced us to a few tracks from the newest album, "Silverball." Their off the cuff antics that I've heard they do included a jingle based on eating at Legal Seafood "Haliburpin" and making fun of Colin Hay's (lead singer of Men At Work who is touring with them) on his 62nd birthday.

First time at this venue, loved it. Have followed Barenaked Ladies since they started. They put on a great show!

BNL were AMAZING AS ALWAYS!!!!! Best part of the show was when they played new song, "Duct Tape Heart" (My daughter went wild!) and Colin Hay joining the band to play "Who Can It Be Now?" and "Pinch Me"!!!! COLIN HAY WAS INCREDIBLE!!!! IF YOU DON'T KNOW HIM FROM MEN AT WORK ALREADY, DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND GO EXPLORE IS SOLO STUFF!!!! JUST AMAZING SONGS!!!! ALSO MY DAUGHTER AND I GOT TO MEET HIM AND GET A CD SIGNED! Violent Femmes I was a casual fan of but I have to say seeing them live is the only way to truly get just how AMAZING AND TALENTED AND ENTERTAINING this band really is!!!

Great seats, great show, great weather. Colin Hay opened followed by Violent Femmes. All acts were very entertaining. Very fun.

Seriously?! Where can you go wrong with this tour?! Colin Hay opens, Violent Femmes follows and Barenaked Ladies close down the place! Without a doubt an incredible concert. A Barenaked Ladies member joins Violent Femmes on stage for Gone Daddy Gone. Colin Hay comes out, and Violent Femmes Sax man joins Barenaked Ladies as they belt out Men At Works Who Can It Be Now. Barenaked Ladies did Toe to Toe for 1st time live! Violent Femmes rocked the place! And Barenaked Ladies delivered their great humor and great music! Definitely a concert worth the dollars!

Love these guys, they never disappoint! Played new and old songs!

Amazing show- so great to see BNL again! Violent Femmes too!

Colin Hay is beyond talented, I loved hearing the classic Men at Work songs as well as his current stuff. The acoustic version of Overkill has been on my iPod for awhile now, I'm so glad I got to hear it live. The Violent Femmes are one of my all time favorites and their performance was out of this world!! They played the perfect set of songs... A variety of instruments that you don't normally see I.e. Slide whistle and contrabass sax and xylophone. The Horns of Dilemma were amazing!! Barenaked Ladies were hilarious, great lighting and an all around great show.

We had never been to a show at Indian Ranch. What a fantastic place to see a show. It felt like we were at a camp sing-a-long!!! The boys were excellent (as always) and the venue was great! Perfect day, BNL never disappoints!

The drive was horrendous, but absolutely worth it. The Bare Naked Ladies is one in a million!!! Humorous, catchy phrasing, entertaining and very talented. Never a dull moment...

A most entertaining musical event! Don't go through life without seeing Barenaked Ladies

After 25 years, the boys of BNL have been through a lot. But put that all aside, theyalways put on a fast paced, crowd engaging show, with improvisational that make the audience feel like they are close to the band. From the hits to the new songs, and especially the improvised songs about the city and their everyday observations, as well as spoofing some of today's top pop hits, and not to mention the cover songs Tyler sang in the encore, the crowd was buzzing, dancing in thier seats, and singing along to all the songs I've had the pleasure of seeming the BNL 6 times over the last 25 years, and I am entertained to the max each time. See you next tour!

There the best! so entertaining and fun to watch! I wish they would tour more often!

Fantastic show, great venue. This was the first time i got to see them in concert and it was worth the wait. (big fan for years) Opening band whitehorse was great too!!

Gang, BNL are a great entertainment band they really pull no stops to bring in the local flair to the show. They always make up a song about something fun about the city they are playing in. That's what I like the best. Must see! G.

I really enjoyed seeing BNL in NYC. They sounded great, were high energy and very funny.

As always - an incredibly entertaining and fun show. Never fail to make you smile. Brought a friend who had never been and created a new fan!

This was my 24th BNL show and it was possibly the best yet. Who needs Steven? The guys were fantastic - high energy the whole show. Ed does a great job singing lead about 90% of the show. They were entertaining. I brought a friend who had never seen them before and she thought it was the best concert she had ever been too.

BNL was awesome and Whitehorse was a plus. Lakewood Civic Auditorium was a perfect venue. It was a very enjoyable evening.

All I can say is fun, fun, fun! This was probably our 8th time to go see BNL so we sprang for front row tickets & had an absolute blast. This band is funny, eclectic, delightful, varied & did I say funny? BNL fans know what a great time this band is live; you should too!

this was my first show at the Peabody Opera House. It was my twelfth or thirteenth BNL show. The POH is beautiful and a great venue. The staff is very helpful and friendly. The concessions are outrageously priced. I thought I was at a Rams game! At $8.25 for a beer and $5.00 for bottled water, my refreshments for the evening were limited to ONE! There's not a bad seat in the house. The acoustics are clean and solid. Of course the band totally rocked the room. While I miss the vocals of the former singer, BNL has adapted most of their hits for the four-man format. There are a few numbers that were weaker and others that probably won't be played live ever again. But with twenty-five years of material to choose from, the show will not lack for great songs. Ed Robertson has stepped up as lead singer very well. Kevin Hearn and Ed Creegan fill in nicely with harmonies. Even Tyler Stewart took the lead on a couple of songs. He knows he doesn't have the best voice but that doesn't slow his enthusiasm. And the crowd loves him for it. BNL has had many musical successes in their career. There was the purely Canadian chapter. Then they were "discovered" by a Boston radio station and stared their U.S. career. After Kevin re-joined the band after his illness, the band really hit it big. Now they have re-emerged as a powerful quartet. Usually a band will start to fade after a quarter century in the business. Hell, most bands don't get to record a third album. This group keeps cranking out the hits and keeps their musical soul intact.

Nothing to say but amazing... everyone on their feet the entire time. People dancing and singing along.. you know its a good show when... SOOOO good. I'd go each week if I could!

Great show, I forgot how fun they are to watch live. Even without Steven Page they still were awesome!

Absolutely wonderful. They pulled up the bands before them and started doing a few mix of songs. They really incorporated everyone involved in the tour and looked like they were having fun.
