The Kills

Just discovered these guys and bought every album. They've got a style all their own and flaunt it.Jamie's guitar work is singularly unique. The chemistry onstage is that of deep and total love for each other, the music and the audience.

Alison & Jamie are a dynamic duo! I've seen em twice in less then a year & will see them again!

The energy and excitement for the 10th Anniversary was phenomenal. The anticipation for this show was well fulfilled! When Allison came out and sang with Jeff Brotherhood, it set the tone for the night. Jamie and Allison put on an unforgettable show. From Lollapalooza to a sold out venue performance, The Kills never fails!

I've been obsessed with The Horrors ever since the first EP came out, but as alomst everybody else, my jaw dropped with their new album, Primary Colours, so i was very excited to hear they would be coming, and especially to my favorite venue, the Music Box. I like the kills a lot, but i honestly went to the show for the horrors. They were amazing, as expected, great players live, sound was great. I'm in love with the new album but it was kind of a dissapointment that they did not play a single song from previous albums. I was really looking forward to hearing a live Sheena is a Parasite, or Count in Fives, but no, only the new album. Which is not bad because it's amazing, but did miss a couple of songs. The Kills were the headliners and i do have to admit, they put on a great show, they were much more confident than the horrors, which are actually all pretty young guys and you can tell. They're not at their peak, performance wise, but they'll get there. Awesome show.

one of the most amazing shows i have seen in years... the energy they have together on stage is electric. They share there energy with the audience without hesitation. i truley admire their passion & the music is fantastic as well :) SEE them live, you won't regret it!

VV and Hotel put on a great show. Their energy is amazing from begining to end.

Both bands played their buts off the Kills work really well off each other it is a great thing to watch. The horrors started off slowly but picked up momentum and finished really nicely.

the best show I've seen this year - hands down. The Kills were incredible and the audience had great energy. good combination.

Alison Mosshart is a tour de force. She has one of the greatest stage presences I've ever seen and you just know she's having a blast up there. I'll never forget the moment the curtain closed and everyone just stood there reeling. I had a huge grin on my face, turned at the exact same moment as the stranger next to me who had huge grin on his face. We just grinned at each other for a moment, knowing we had just seen something great.

The Kills played an awesome show at the Glasshouse! Allison and Jamie have a strong stage presence and get everyone in the venue to sing along.

Very simple Bands good venue sound bad. Contacted Music Box no response.

The sound was a bit distorted but I heard it was the venue, but overall a great show.

The Kills had the place lit up! On fire all night.

Alison was her usual high energy self, dancing around the stage like the rock star she is, attempting to break the mic stand, taking a turn on the guitar and the drums. Jamie appears to be fully recovered and better than ever. They move through their songs quickly, which means MORE MUSIC. We bought our tickets the day of, due to possible schedule conflicts and were disappointed in the low energy of the balcony crowd. People sitting down, surfing facebook, buying shoes (?!), having long text conversations, standing up to take four photos with their flash on (wth) - I'm not sure if they stumbled into the show or thought there was another band or what. Strange.

Great live. Both members of the group are awesome on the stage. The venue is also great since the main floor is distributed in 3 different levels.

Loved the kills! so much energy :) this is my new fav venue!

Went in unsure what to expect from the Kills. I had seen high-quality concerts in which the energy between Jamie and Alison was incomparable, but I wasn't sure if we'd see it in Boston. Luckily, they were awesome, and the chemistry was there. The music was fantastic live, and the sound embraced the audience. Wish I could easily see them again!

The band was amazing. My first time seeing them and it was just incredible.

Where to begin. This concert was so amazing. I got to the venue a little early, around 5pm. Around 6pm, Jamie and Alison came outside and were taking pictures. Then, later they walked up the street. Jamie is an incredible guitar player. And, Alison. Wow! Trying to watch the two of them was a feat in itself. The way Alison moves around. The crowd was really into the show, and afterwards, people said this show was the best one they've seen yet. Better than The Kills second show at Warsaw. I'm so happy I finally got to see The Kills!

The Kills played an awesome set. They had plenty of energy and rocked almost nonstop from song to song. The lead guitarist and lead singer had great chemistry and looked like they were having a great time the entire show.

The Kills were soooooo good!! One of the best shows I've seen so far! Other bands were great too! Love these inexpensive shows that CD 102.5 brings to Columbus several time a year!! Thank you!! My favorite station!!

We went to hear EE and they sounded amazing! And we met them and it was great!

So awesome to see The Kills come back after SOOOO long. They had everyone getting down and they were LOUD! Main disappointment was with The Fillmore staff, who were unusually rude to their guests.

A great show by The Kills! I will see them when they return again, never dispointed

One of my favourite bands but their show was really let down by really poor sound quality in the Commodore. The edgy lyrics, vocals, guitar work, and interaction between Alison and Jamie were nonexistent under the wall of extreme bass and drumming.. Very disappointing but will not be put off seeing them again in the future.

the kills always deliver! there's not much to say. if you're a fan you know why, and if you're a fan you should see them live!!

They always put on a great show and it is great to see how they evolved over the years since the last time I saw them at paradise rock club. Can't wait until they come back!

I'd never heard or seen Black Bananas before but the stole the show!!!!! They were amazing! Alison looked and moved like an X Factor version of the BB's singer.Black Bananas put the kills to shame and I had been a fan until I saw the contrast between real rock n roll and poseurs. I'm a huge Bananas fan now and I know the audience felt the same as I did because Black bananas had a much more enthusiastic response and sold out of their merch before I got the vinyl :(

The kills were "ok" but seemed really kinda posey and fake and the drummers looked stupid. Black Bananas were out of this world exciting. I'm glad I went just to see them. Great opener

When the Kills came on I forgot about how stinkin' hot it was in the balcony, the people around me & the fact that I was one of the oldest people in the joint because they rocked me to my core. I can't believe how awesome they were live. The drums were amazing. I wish I had money to see them both nights!

Alison Mosshart's stage presence is mind-blowing. She is head to toe cool- a true goddess. She is the queen of all queens- the moment she walks onto the stage your jaw drops. Her and Jamie compliment each other so well, and are the best live band I have ever seen.

The Kills put on a phenomenal show. The band was tight, the vocals were perfect. The interaction between Alison and Jamie is pure poetry.

Alison & Jamie rocked the stage. Jamie was incredible on the guitar and Alison's stage performance was very provocative. I loved it. Especially when they played Monkey 23 a song you don't hear them perform too often.

Great show. Gotta love anything Alison Mosshart does. She really gives you 110%. And Jamie Hince matches her all the way. The drummers really added a great depth to the music too. If they play around you don't miss them!!!

Alison "VV" Mosshart and Jamie "Hotel" Vince were the greatest performers I have ever seen, period. Their chemistry, effortless cool, and grungy stage antics were incredible. The music, of course, was perfection. They were very good about interacting with the audience, as well. Alison vamped for iPhones, made eye contact, and spent a good deal of the show at the edge of the stage; Jamie, similarly, was constantly coming forward, looking at us, and engaging us in his playing. (My friends and I were front-and-center, so perhaps someone standing/sitting farther back wouldn't feel the same.) The energy in the room was unbelievable. Alison and Jamie seemed to be having a blast, and it was infectious. This was my first time seeing the Kills, but my friends had seen them two or three times before, and they said that this was the best show, hands down. I cannot recommend this enough! Some side notes: It was probably two hours or more from doors opening (8 pm) to the Kills actually playing. The opening act (Black Bananas) got on around 9, and played maybe a half hour. (They weren't very good, tbh, but they weren't offensively bad, either.) The concert was over around 12. We stayed up near the stage and were able to score some setlists and drumsticks from the roadies. One of my friends stayed until about 1:15 and was able to meet Alison. (I had to get back home, unfortunately.)

It was great to remember the band 10th anniversary in their concert. Also, I could meet all rock and roll people around me. I realize that rock and roll is not dead!

What an amazing show! Love THE KILLS even more now. One of thee best shows of the year! The Mayan is always a fantastic show. Black Bananas on the other hand blows. Watched a drunk chick perform on stage. True waste of time and $$$.

The Kills were great...by the time they got on stage. Black Bananas were on at 9 played till around 10, are you kidding me, where did they get such an awful opening band??? The stage looked like a mess of dirty hair and sounded worse As for the Kills, anything other than their namesake would have been disappointing, sounded great, best band!!

Why bother playing live if you do not like to do so. Great on vinyl, boring as all get out live.

Brilliant event from start to finish. Great support acts and a wonderful venue. Well worth the trip from the UK to catch the gig. See you in another ten years.

Amazing, fabulous, fantastic, etc, etc!! Pure energy oozing from Jamie's guitar and Alison's killer (pun intended) vocals.The Kills came out and gave the fans an unforgettable performance from start to the last encore song. I did not want the concert to end! And of course, we were treated a sweet bonus before the show: BP Fallon's intro to the band and asking us to sing "Happy Birthday" to The Kills celebrating their 10th Anniversary together. Fantastic!

This 10th anniversary was amazing. All the best and expected songs, an incredible atmosphere, a great musical backing with four awsome "dancing" drumers and two chorists. The Kills offered a magic moment and we can only wish to meet them again in ten years for a new, gigantic, 20th anniversary...

I've seen quite a bit of headliners with opeing acts in NYC recently and this was a GREAT concert! Sometime times however opening acts could end up shadowing the main event. And although I would not say that the Hunters were better then the Kills, at least not in a musical sense, they really got the crowd going and were the best opening act I've seen in at least a year. The lead female of Hunters is fit, vivacious and moves like a wolverine on fireworks! The Kills seemed more grand with their four drummers marching on in the background. And played really good to the crowd. Terminal 5 Sat, Feb 11, 2012 one night to remember!

The Kills were amazing at Masquerade in ATL. Totally worth the drive. Every song sounded great. There wasn't really any chitchat and I didn't see an opportunity to meet the band, but the show was great...best I've been to.

I am so lucky to be able to say I have seen The Kills live. They were beyond awesome. Alison was beautiful and can really belt it out live, you can feel the energy coming from her. Jamie is so talented on the guitar its an honor to watch him at his work. They played all of their best songs including some old favorites. We were lucky enough to watch Alison sing "Crazy" by Patsy Cline. I also enjoyed Jeff the Brotherhood who opened up for them. I wish I could watch them again. My only complaint was that it felt too short! But It was an amazing concert and the Kills kicked ass.

The kills are so amazing. I don't understand how only two people can make so much noise and bring so much energy. The band is incredible not to mention in Rolling Stone's top 50 albums of 2011. The venue was a really nice surprise since it's at downtown disney. I only wish that the audience got more into dancing around. Drinks are expensive. $5 pabst blue ribbon...

It was incredible. Mini Mansions opened so well that I would go see them as the main show. Although, when The Kills came on, I was blown away. I'm likely to go see another it was so amazing. Another awesome performance by The Kills. Thanks for the great show!

It was a great show, their last stop on the US tour, they seemed a little tired but still performed well. Would love to see them live again!

The Kills are amazing live. If you ever have a chance to see them, do it.

The kills never disappoint the show was amazing!!! they are one of the best live bands performing today and i i am so happy i got to go to this show, the fox theater is one of the most beautiful venues i have ever seen, and the Kills fit there wonderfully. if you haven't seen them live, don't put it off!!

The kills rocked! Really tight performance. I would see them again and again. They played a nice long set. And a three song encore( I think, I was about 7 beers deep at that point) The only disappointment I had was that they didn't play "ALPHABET PONY" But aside From that, they had great energy and reacted to their roaring fans graciously. I wish I had had time to go to the second show. I also would liked to have seen a live drummer, but I don't think they've ever toured with one. Terminal 5 was great too. Rooftop bar for smokers, drinks were just above reasonably priced thogh. $7 for a beer. Bartenders and staff were very friendly.

Despite some technical difficulties, The Kills were amazing. This band has a great sound and an amazing energy. Lead by Vocalist Alison Mosshart, The Kills are able to keep an electric energy for the duration of their sets. Guitarist Jamie Hince is awe inspiring. Brilliant display by two talented artist. It never fails to wow, when two individuals can create on stage what often times five or more people can not achieve. A definite must see for all Rock fans. I would never miss a show Alison is playing, whether it is with The Dead Weather or The Kills. She is amazing.

Despite the heavy security and most thorough search (I thought they were going to ask to search body cavities there) The Fox Theatre is a wonder venue to see Rock bands. The sound is excellent and pretty much a great view from anywhere (including the balcony). The opening band 'Cold Cave' left me... well... cold. I saw them open for The Kills the night before at the Music Box in Hollywood. Their first 2-3 songs were quite good, despite the singer sounding a lot like Robert Smith (The Cure). After that it was just more of the same. Next came 'The Black Angels.' My favorite of the night and my favorite contemporary Psych/Rock band. I am a 35+ year fan of The Velvet Underground and thought no one was ever going to match their power and influence on rock music until I heard TBA. In fact, I went to see them headline 5/15 (the next night) at The El Rey. I stayed after to meet the band, and they are as friendly as they are phenomenal performers and amazing musicians. I just can't get enough of this band. I have seen 'The Kills' many times. They never fail to deliver. I love the new LP 'Blood Pressures' and to see those songs come alive is amazing. That being said, I would have to say that, for my money, it was 'The Black Angels' who stole the show. (Sorry VV and Hotel). TBA are a band not to be missed. They are going to blow up and be huge very soon so check them out!

Best show, I have scene in a while, Allison personifies coolness

The Kills were just brilliant live, but let's talk first about the sucky part of this concert and then off to the good moments. The show was supposed to start at 8pm, The Kills started playing around 11pm and had 2 opening acts before the show. After waiting for so long, they started playing that's when it got crazy. Wasted people got stupid and started pushing non stop and making fights with others. It got to a point where I had to move so I could enjoy the show in peace. Now to the good part, the whole show was amazing. Alison moves around the stage rocking out while Jamie plays brilliantly. This duo is the best I've seen in a while. So I guess what I'm saying is, go see them live!!

These two seem to go together so well, why aren't they legally married? Loved the show, but why on earth didn't they perform "What New York Used to Be" while playing in NYC? I was so looking forward to hearing that live and was sure they'd do an encore of it, but it didn't happen. No matter- I still love The Kills!

This show was pretty awesome. The beginning bands were so fun to listen to. The Kills have such great stage performance and sounds spectacular! I love the way Alison moves around and climbs things to make the show all the more remember able. Alison and Jamie are definitely of the better duos from this decade and I love listening to them all the time.

The Kills literally killed it at the Fox Theatre in Oakland.

I was extremely excited for this show. I thought the vocal levels were off and aside from when she played the keyboard the overall sound was poor. Not the show I was expecting at all.

This was a spectacular performance from the Kills.

The show was incredible. The Kills are an act that everyone should go out of their way to see.

What a great concert...a real mix of old and new material from start to finish. Alison Mosshart rocked the stage while Jamie Hince interjected with dirty guitar riffs and effortless cool. Highlight for me was Siberian Nights which had everyone jumping.

The Kills are an amazing recorded duo but on stage they are just amazing. Alison Mosshart has fantastic stage presence, great voice range and ability to engage the audience. She moves with the music and could not take my eyes off her. Jamie Hince is a great guitarist and his chemistry with Alison make the experience even more enjoyable. A must see show! You won't be dissatisfied.

After 15 years and several amazing albums, why aren't The Kills bigger than they are?! That's what I asked myself when I left Terminal 5 last Friday evening after seeing them live for the first time. Prior to that, I was only familiar with a couple of songs from their last two albums (Blood Pressures and Fire & Ice) that my 24-year-old son introduced me to (I'm 56). So to say I went in with low expectations is a gross understatement. Man was I blown away. Alison Mosshart and Jamie Hince own the stage with rowdy confidence. Alison, with her wild mane of (newly) blonde hair and willowy, gyrating frame, oozes a combination of sexy playfulness and raw aggression, while Jamie attacks his ax with gleeful abandon (a grin rarely leaves his face) - one of the most commanding guitar performances I've seen in some time, especially impressive since I understand he recently had to re-learn how to play following numerous hand surgeries. The show was tempestuous and the packed venue of screaming fans rapturous. Do yourself a favor and catch The Kills next time they come around. You will not be disappointed.

First time seeing this band, and they exceeded my expectations. The sound was spot on and they covered all the familiar songs as well as those from the new album. A great flow to the set, will see them again!!

Oh my word. I can't encapsulate how fun this show was in words. I'm still recovering from the intensity of this duo and their band. Even watching Alison perform online is transfixing, so you can imagine them playing live. So crazy to picture either of them ever getting nervous, as they've said they do before every show...I can picture myself vomiting back stage, but not these forces of nature. Glad they are getting more recognition.

I have been listening to The Kills for quite a while. I got one of my friend to listening to them also. When I found out they were going to be in Atlanta, I got tickets for all of us right away. I knew the music was going to be good; but I was blown away by how good the show was. what a great event! Must see for anyone who loves good music and a great show.

This was a great show, love Alison and Jaime and obviously the whole band in general.

This band knows how to put on show. With shredding guitars, and howling vocals from their lead singer, they will have your head banging.

Great show, great venue, plenty of places within walking distance to get something to eat and drink, or just walk around.

Amazing show from beginning to end! Allison is my queen and she puts on an incredible show! A must see!

Awsome theatre, had a great time, Fox theatre is the best

The Kills have been one of my favourite bands for...ever & they did not disappoint. In fact, they exceeded my every dream of how amazing a concert could be. I was right up front on Alison's side & she has such an amazing stage presence & her interaction with the crowd is unforgettable. Alison sat on the speaker right in front of my friend & almost hit her with her guitar hehee. She sang right into my camera. She knelt down & stared at my friend & I during the opening to the Last Goodbye. Jamie & Alison's interactions with one another were the greatest. & Jamie's whole being exudes perfection. After the concert, my friend & I were able to meet Alison & she is the absolute sweetest gal. She was so interested in what her fans had to say & was patient & not in a rush to get going to the bus. I am sooooo grateful to have had this experience. Happy 10 years VV & Hotel! Here's to many, many more!

Nice! Although this band would definitely deserve a real drum

This was the one of the best shows I've ever purchased tickets for. I brought my roommate and made him and his brother a fan of the Kills. It Was unfortunate the show ran late, we had to leave the venue before they finished to catch the last NJ transit tran home. Everything from the 2 awesome opening acts to the Kills stellar performance was great! Amazing show, a definate recommendation to anyone!

This band is an enigma that works: a hard-driving, scuzzy punk/blues/hard rock duo that dispenses with a rhythm section in favor of drum tracks...yet manages to be completely visceral and real...and which surprised me by layering on a quartet of drummers and two backup singers for their performance. The overall effect is a completely entertaining, wall-of-sound experience. These are fantastic live performers, and they put on a memorable show Saturday night at Terminal 5. I've seen Alison Mosshart front the Dead Weather on several occasions (also unforgettable). Somehow she seems to be having more fun when she's singing with The Kills, maybe because this time her hair was up -- way, way up -- out of her face, so you could see her smile. She absolutely leaves everything on the stage every time. Jamie Hince carves skillful sonic landscapes, often frantically thumbing a machine-gun baseline while carrying melodies with the rest of the fingers on his right hand (nice to have high-def monitors throughout the venue for this kind of detail). Overall, a great show. Can't wait to see them again.

The opening acts were a great lead up. The Kills were fantastic. It was incredible seeing them in person and they were as fantastic live as everyone said they would be. It was an incredible night and worth all the travel time it took me to get there. And everything started when it was supposed to. That was great. the venue had a really great vibe too! Classy place!

Jamie Hince is such a great guitarist , who often gets over shadowed by his dynamic partner Alison Mosshart, who at times could be described as a caged lioness. Tonight Jamie really showed us he has got it the complete package. Showman and an amazing musician, as usual Alison Mosshart with all her energy and wild hair was enthralling. The Kills are such an intriguing band to watch !

One of the best performing bands ever!! Alison and Jamie always put on an unforgettable show.

Jamie was killing it on the guitar (even playing riffs using the mic stand to hold down his frets, badass), Alison was an amazing performer as usual (with pink dyed hair this time!) The encore was great and extended a lot longer than most acts usually do, in a good way, because we just couldn't get enough

The Kills were very very very very extremely boring

Having been an Kills fan in every sense of the word having friends send me bootlegs from the UK, seen every show performed within 200 miles of me, I have to say I was really disappointed in this show. The Kills have gone Hollywood, everything was glam, Jamie's music was pristine and boring -- none of the character it once had, and Alison looked as if she was doing a parody of herself. I was always blown away because she looked possessed by the goddesses of rock. Now she just looked like the girl who plays Alison in the movie adaptation. I want my band that used to play in front of a handful of people, who were rough, and from the street, not the made-for-TV version. What happened?

I would recommend not only The Kills but also the venue. Small enough that you felt like a part of the experience but big enough that the excitement was palpable.

The Kills were amazing! They had such great energy and incredible talent. Would definitely recommend and go see again!

They were absolutely AMAZING! Alison is a goddess.

I just found out about this band and now adore them. They put on a excellent show. I will see them again for sure. Great Art Rock!

Loved hearing the songs live but they were just ok

Their show in Tampa was one of the best things I've ever experienced.

Great performance by the band as expected. The venue was nice and small but there was a little raised platform from the stage to about halfway into the room. Anyone in the back half of the room probably had trouble seeing.

I'm not as familiar with their latest album Blood Pressures as I am with Midnight Boom and No Wow so the first 30mins or so were characterized by passive appreciation on my part but things really started to pick up once they played U.R.A. fever. The crowd got really enthusiastic and I found my mind was being increasingly more blown lol. I nearly cried when Mosshart sang "Crazy" by Patsy Cline. It was too beautiful and added an extra level of awesome to an already incredible concert.

This band was definitely a lot better than I thought they would be. They tore the roof off of the place. The guitarist is definitely one of the heaviest out there. Allison Mosshart is without a question, one of the sexiest and talented performers out there. The Kills killed it!

Absolutely awesome! They put on a great show; could have listened to them all night..

The Kills were amazing. As always TIGHT. Backed up by a drumming corp, they had the crowd rockin. No doubt about it Alison Mosshart is a rock n roll goddess!

This show was unbelievable. So high-energy, theatrical, and intimate. I want to see The Kills a million more times!!

Boston loves The Kills. How sick was that show?!!!! Alison is one of the raddest chicks to see preform live, STRAIGHT UP!!!! The set was perfect, they were so awesome. I cannot wait to see them again!!!!!!!!!

One of the best shows I have seen in a long time! Absolutely loved it!

I like this band out of the studio but was not one bit impressed with The Kills live. They were a little better then the 2 acts that they followed but that is not saying much at all. Too bad Jack White did not grab a guitar and come out because he was there. The drummers (if you could call them that) could have been myself and anyone else in the crowd. It was comical to see them with their bandannas. The lack of enthusiasm of the crowd did not help but it would not have mattered much. The Kills? Not so much.

I knew it wold be a good show but not that good! A great mix of the old and new stuff.

The Kills-Talented duo, but was disappointed in their extreme use of drum machines, & prerecorded instruments . Hire more musicians!

Wednesday night at the Masquerade was incredible! They bring so much energy to the stage and leave everything there. I cannot wait till they come back hopefully next year they will tour.
