Trail of Dead played the entire set with as much finesse as energy. Each member has a unique stage presence, and they played each song with passion and intensity, managing to hit all the correct notes.

I've seen these guys several times and this was one of the best small venue concerts that I've ever seen. The opening acts were awesome. You could tell that the Trail of Dead were excited about playing their old stuff and were having a good time on stage. The energy was electric and I really enjoyed the show. I've already turned on my friends that don't know about this band....

An unforgettable night. The crowd energy was high and positive, which fed the band and made for a great interplay. Numerous times they commented on that. The mosh pit was full throttle but no one was throwing elbows, people picked each other up if they fell. The set list was PERFECT imo. Of course hearing every track on Source Tags was what we all came for, but the other ~7 songs were all killer choices as well, such as Will You Smile Again, Clair de Lune, Bells of Creation, Caterwaul, and A Perfect Teenhood. What surprised me the most was how good Conrad sounded. Sorry you know we love you but I've seen shows before when you were just way off-key the entire night. This was different - he was on point. Sure he strains for the high notes just like we expect but he gave it the old college try, not like those musicians who re-write all their melodies to avoid trying.

You feel like the band truly appreciates that you came out, and they rock as hard as they possibly can. If you are even reading this you probably realize these are not pitch-perfect singers, but they are hard rocking poets with creativity and a deep catalog of hits from their many amazing studio albums, and they aren't too pretentious to play the songs you want to hear. I was treated to favorite after favorite from albums many have forgotten, but not the lively crowd at Irving which was whipped into a mosh pit frenzy during some of the faster songs. They may not have 2 drummers on tour anymore but they still make plenty of beautiful noise.

The show was excellent. I feel like the promotion for the show could have been better, there should've been more people there, ...And You Will Know Us By the Trail of Dead are unbelievably good musicians and their songs are diverse, epic and solid! Great show!

Let's start with this: I went to the show to see Mumiy Troll only. We got the the venue at 8:05pm and they were playing already. Apparently they were opening!!! It's like U2 going to Russia and opening for some new band not too many people know about. Nonsense! Then MT got done playing at 8:40. So I got 35 minutes of my favorite band for $23. Not too cheap, is it? But I actually got lucky that I saw them at all. Few friends of mine who got to the venue after 8:30 - got to see MT for few minutes or did not get to see them at all. I felt a bit disappointed and I bet so did most of other people who came to see MT.

Mumiy Troll only played 3-4 songs and left. The rest of the bands were below average, so I left the concert.

Openers Secret Machines ruled this criminally under-attended show. Trail of Dead had plenty of energy, but didn't win me over. Reminded me of Modest Mouse with 2 drummers, and much less diversity/dynamism. Small crowd was into them though. Great band name, need to work on band.

It was your average wednesday. I wasn't going to go at first. My cousin called and told me him and his friend were gonna be there. I figured what the Hell? I like there music enough and I've been wanting to see them for awhile. I'm glad I went :) these will blow you away from start to finish. I've seen a lot of shows but there is only one Trail of Dead.

Another amazing show from Trail of Dead. The artistry and energy they bring to the stage is just incredible - I always leave a ToD show feeling that good music can truly change your life. They put on a rock concert that's loud and raucous, but only to enhance the music being played, which is at times sensitive and expressive while at other times raw energy. Great mix of old and new, awesome crowd interaction. Even my guest, who had never really listened to ToD, found himself engaged in the music and was disappointed when it was over. You know you've seen a good show when the end of the set comes and you feel a little heartbroken. Thanks for a great one, can't wait to do it again!

They played well, although seemed a bit noisy at times, we weren't fully able to appreciate the intricacy of many of their songs. The crowd was also small and not entirely lively, which took away from the ambiance. Nonetheless, it was an enjoyable experience and would do it again.

The music was just so indie-rock cliche, delivered without anything that made it stand out, the musical elements were completely forgettable. And if you have 2 drummers that play the exact same thing, YOU DONT NEED TWO DRUMMERS. Gimmicky.

This is the second time we've seen "Trail of Dead" and we weren't disappointed. They gave a great live performance full of energy and passion. The sound was a bit overmodulated but that was the venue's fault (that aside, it's a pretty cool venue). The band itself is a talented group of guys, who throw themselves into their performances. If you're on the fence about whether or not they're worth seeing live, I'd really recommend you go, especially since they're playing smaller venues and tickets have been in the $20-$30 range.

Acoustics,Acoustics,Acoustics need to fixed at this place! Dude i barely heard Conrad Keely( Singer, guitar, drums, piano) sing. <But Conrad can sing his ass off(if your in the front) . Jason Reece is crazy cool > (note that this place is small and its kinda safe and you get meet and see the band up close) Reece is awesome singing "in the crowd" and with his guitar . Drums where crazy too ..I think his name is Aaron Ford( the bald dude) >hes crazy with the drums. The bar downstairs was bad . She didnt know what the hell she was doing. 3 times she messed up me order. ARRR! I ask for a Bud Light she gave me a Corona Extra. No tip for you!

a religion, I'd be at the altar, High Priest. Seriously though, why are S M not a massive arena rock band, it's all there. Did people understand Pink Floyd when they were "active"?

I really had a blast at this show. There was a great vibe, I got to meet Conrad and talk art, and the overall experience was amazing. I really enjoyed the show.
