This was my 3rd time seeing El Monstero and I brought along some first timers. They thought the show was amazing. My kids love this show as well.....it crosses generations and manages to stay true to the original Pink Floyd.

We have been avid fans for some time now. Took my son and daughter-in-law for the first time and they where amazed. With them being younger I watched them sing most of the songs and comment after each one. They couldn't beleive what they where hearing. Great show!!! See ya next year.

I've been going to concerts for 32 years and i will tell you this machine they call El monstero is THE BEST tribute I have seen. This a must see for all you Pink Floyd fans. The musicianship that those guys bring to the stage is just awesome. Roger Waters should take note... these guys can run with your boys and .....well I'll just say they kicked ass and leave at that.

Another fabulous time was had by all. El Monstero and all it's extras make this a great show to see. The backup singers, sax players, drummers, teacher, pole & floor dancers, cops and every other addition to the band make it a spectacular concert. The new bass player is a really good fit in the band & his singing was really cool too. Can't wait to see them next year for another awesome Christmas treat.

This show was unlike any other El Monstero show that has ever been. From guest singers, to full orchestra, and even theatrical moments during the show it was an unforgettable experience. Along with many of the Pink Floyd favorites and standards the complete performance of the album The Wall was an unexpected treat for the eyes as well as the ears. If you missed this show, you missed something truly spectacular.

What a fantastic concert! They played some of the best Pink Floyd ever and performed The Wall in its entirety! It was visually stunning as well. I did not hold our high hopes for this event - They are a local Pink Floyd Cover Band but they sure did not disappoint! They sounded amazing - looked amazing and if I didn't know any better, would have thought I was at a Pink Floyd show. I can't wait to see these guys perform again!

El Monstero was great! The crowd was of many walks of life. These are very talented musicians. Only real down fall was the interesting and unnecessary girls on stage for a few songs. My husband I both agreed they were not an asset to the overall experience. We both love Pink Floyd though so we really just enjoyed the music. Love seeing shows at uptown theater! It's a nice, more intimate setting for a concert. General admission is definitely the way to if you don't mind standing, which I do at any concert anyway.

My yongest daughter and I went to our fourth consecutive El Monstero concert at the Uptown in Kansas City. It has become our tradition. Two different generations of Pink Floyd fans. We think the band is great and always love to see how they change the up the production each time. I think they get better each time we see them, but we have NEVER been disappointed with the show or overall production. Keep Kansas City on your list of venues and we will keep coming to this excellent show!

If you live in St. Louis or anywhere near, and you like live music events, you MUST see Elmonstero! Seeing the best of the best all together is awesome! The New Years Eve event was fabulous! Hope they do it again. I was hoping that K-She would have had a video with highlights from throughout the years, or something, they really could have done a lot more for their 50 year kick off, but overall, a truly wonderful event.

The theatrics were great!!! I had never seen an El Monstero Concert, my boyfriend was so excited to take me. He was very disappointed in the show, said he had seen them many times and they were normally the best show ever but this time it just wasn't the same. The music was very flat. I noticed the crowd just wasn't into it as much as they should have been at a concert of this sort. Or maybe I'm just a deadhead, lol....because this just didn't even come close to the Jakes Leg concerts we have seen.

El Monstero that is a St. Louis Tradition, plays Pink Floyd with all the special effects expected in a Pink Floyd Concert. Venue is a great place to see them. Reserved seating is a much appreciated relatively new idea for some nights. Without reserved seats it's nearly impossible to get a seat at all. Recommend seats on the main level if possible where sound and the show effects are much better. A must see for a Pink Floyd fan!

El Monstero and Celebration Day were excellent representatives of Pink Floyd and Led Zepplin respectively. The performances were superb, highlighted by the most beautiful and impressive visuals and special effects I have ever seen at a concert. I can't say enough good things about this show. Thanks guys! Also, the venue straightened out the security mess I experienced at Joe Walsh. This kept me from giving up on the venue.

El Monstero was great as usual, not so much for Celebration Day. The sound was really off compared to last year. We were very disappointed. I don't know if they got a new sound guy or what, but it was a bunch of noise! And no Cashmere? No encore either which is strange, but I understand as everyone was probably done listening to that!

My first experience seeing Celebration Day & El Monstero had me both "Dazed and Confused" and pleasantly "Comfortably Numb"!!! I've never had the priviledge of seeing either of the original bands but have seen many tribute bands for both groups and none compare to Celebration Day & El Monstero! Guys you've got it goin' on! Never stop what you're doing because you are RIGHT ON in every way! Setlist, lighting, sound, stage, back-up singers, stage performers, props, video, EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!! BRAVO WELL DONE! The Great Gig in the Sky blew me away! I love and can definitely appreciate a women with pipes that knows how to use them and use them well. Those girls are AWESOME!!!!! Entire band KICKS serious ass!!! Cannot wait to see the next show!

I was not lucky enough to be alive in the 70s, but El Monstero gave me that chance by performing the best Pink Floyd cover imaginable! It was the best concert I have ever been to. They played a perfect selection of Floyd's songs, a nice mix of their albums (not just Dark Side), and really involved the audience. Also, not only did their musical talents sound incredible, but they put on a theatrical performance the entire show! I was blown away by the first half, but everything got even better once the sun went down and they could use the darkness. I cannot wait to see El Monstero again the next time they are back in St. Louis. :)

This was my first time getting to see El Monstero live, and it was much more than I ever could've imagined. I had always heard good things, but it took seeing it with my own eyes to really believe it. It was like a Vegas style show with girls dancing on ropes, chains, rings, and poles, Fire, Smoke, Bubbles, and everything else. El Monstero also captured every detail of the sound perfectly too. If you closed your eyes you could swear you were listening to Dark Side of the Moon.

I haven't been to an El Monstero show for six years. The show is still amazing. It occurred to me that the cheap tickets (general admission) at the Pageant actually get you the best "seats" in the house! Aside from the few "fans" who felt it was their right to push past everyone to get to the front, and the one obnoxious drunk who kept knocking into everyone, the show was fantastic. There is no questioning the musical ability or stage presence of this group. The show opened with "Sheep" and continued for three and a half hours with one twenty minute break about an hour and a half in. A much more intimate venue than Verizon.

Frankly, I feel gypped. I bought the most expensive tickets they had based on being blown away by last year's show and they really down sized the production this year. Last year seats in 6th row center would have been worth the price, this year not so much. I did hear a lot of complaining about poor lighting, particularly the follow spots. While it's true that the musicians were in the dark the vast majority of the time, I attributed that to a nod to early Floyd, that they wanted the lights and images to be the show. Either that or their lighting team is incompetent. Interestingly, they didn't play anything older that DSOM. #bummer The stuff they did play sounded great to be sure. The tribute during "Wish you were here" was cool and if I'm not mistaken that was the entire DSOM album. I'd go again next year but won't plop down $80 (with fees) to sit that far down front. Final gripe, they started more than an hour later than the published start time. I get they wanted it to be darker but tell us that up front please. #arrogance

Have attended several El Monstero shows over the years. This year's show seemed to be a bit weak from the music side and some of the songs played were certainly not the most familiar Pink Floyd songs. Still a good show but musicians seemed to not connect properly at times. Although women vocalists were outstanding, some of the main male singers were off key at times.

It was a hot and muggy night sitting in the seats. The time on the tickets was 7:00 but the opening band on the main stage didn't start until after 8:00. There was another early band on a side stage at 5:15 but we didn't know about that until I saw it on Facebook. El Monstero didn't start until 8:40 and there were many hot, crabby people in the audience waiting for the real show to start. I liked the concert being at Verizon Wireless Amphitheater instead of Jefferson Barracks Park. However the concession prices were higher. I think next year I will get lawn tickets. I think you have more space and air movement when it's hot in the summer. I know that many people come because to them it's a social event. However I love to listen to the lyrics and music. You can't enjoy it as much when there are so many inconsiderate people in the seats in front of you and behind you. Looking forward to another great show next year.

Pro: This band is amazing and plays the Pink Floyd songs spot on! This is our second time to see them at the Uptown. We especially enjoyed hearing the complete Dark Side of the Moon at the end!! (actually wasn't the end, but should have been) Con: Could have done without the spotlights aimed at the audience - not pleasant to have blinding light in your face... otherwise the lighting and effects were great. Favorite - disco glitter ball! ** Not sure what the pole dancers add to the show. They are a mere distraction.

El Monstero is the best Pink Floyd tribute bands that.i have been to. I think that watching El Monstero in concert is like being at a Pink Floyd concert back in their heyday. Best time I've had at a concert. Music was spot on with the concert effects getting better every year. Can't recommend this band enough. Go see them to experience Pink Floyd.

I attended El Monstero Saturday for probably the 10th time over the years. This is the first time in three years that I attended. The show was different than those in the past. I was disappointed in that they departed from the normal presentation which had been more like a play or a rock opera. This year the first half consisted a variety of Pink Floyd songs, some obscure, which in and of itself is ok if that s what you were expecting. However I wasn t. I enjoyed the previous format, leaning heavily on The Wall and Dark Side of the Moon. It was always like a production, a theater offering. I felt this show lacked continuity and floundered around with selections having no connection to each other.

Another great season for this show. Last year's set list was near perfect for me and I was particularly surprised to hear Two Suns in th Sunset off The Final Cut then. This year brought a few more from that fantastic but more obscure LP. Can't wait to see them again in KC and Springfield in a few weeks!

I ve listened to Pink Floyd songs my whole life, but I ve clearly never heard them before. The sound was huge and everywhere. And gorgeous. And so powerful. But not deafening. It It could easily just be a great cover/tribute band, but the folks who ve been putting this together for 19 years are clearly passionate about providing a top notch experience. There were about 16 seats in The Pageant with worse views than my own. I would be delighted to have even one of those next year. And whoever miced the drums deserves an extra cookie for Christmas. The first time he hit that bass drum, Wow! I thought they had used a cannon gimmick. So thunderous, yet never overwhelmed the other instruments.

Never got to see Pink Floyd live, but have to imagine they couldn't have performed their works live any better than El Monstero. Their musical renditions were flawless, and the staging and special effects were phenomenal!

Fabulous show! The vocals and instruments were spot on Pink Floyd. Loved the extras, too--lasers, "cops," etc. Ticket prices were very reasonable, too.

El Monstero was amazing. I would definitely recommend going to see them if you ever get a chance. They actually had a helicopter fly over and the show was just awesome. If you are a fan of Pink Floyd this is a concert you will be happy you went to. We had so much fun at this concert. I would say it is right up there with one of the best shows I've ever seen!! Definitely would recommend this to everyone.

I have lived in StL for over 20 years and have never had the chance to see El Monstero. Every year I go home for Christmas and it seems I was always working in a band on the nights they played in the summer. So Aug 8th was my 1st show. WOW!! AI never expected this type of show. Close to perfection. This is a group of guys that did not look at each other and say "Good Enough". This group of individuals are better than most of the national touring acts that grace the stages of StL. A MUST SEE for any music lover....

This show is one of the most entertaining live events that you'll find in St. Louis. I see them multiple times a year and they NEVER dissappoint.

These guys and gals really know how to put on a show! A good mix of PF albums, and very, very well performed. My only complaint was during the second set they cranked up the volume on the instruments too high and drowned out the singers.

I've never gotten to see Pink Floyd but if I had I'd imagine it'd be a lot like this. The band was on point and sounded fantastic. They used props and lights to their advantage to really heighten the experience.

i'VE SEEN PINK FLOYD lIVE IN CONCERT 7 TIMES. THESE GUYS EL MONSTERO DID A DARN GOOD TRIBUTE TO MY ALL-TIME FAVORITE BAND. IT WAS A LITTLE TO THEATRICAL WITH THE DANCERS, IT TOOK AWAY FROM THE MUSIC

The concert started out not so good when the band came out wearing Nazi uniforms, without the swastika. I can understand they wanted to add some theatrics to the concert but I don't get this at all. Not when they played Pink Floyd music. So things kind of got off to a slow start for me. As the concert progressed, things got better. After the intermission they came out in more normal attire and it was very good after that. The dancers and acrobats were fine. But I guess I am old school. I just wanted to hear the music and see the light show which was excellent. The rest of it was unnecessary as far as I am concerned.

Absolutely awesome show. I cannot wait to go again. I took 2 of my sons with me and one said he had his grin on all night. All three of us loved it. They do a phenomenal rendition of Pink Floyd. Every Pink Floyd fan should see this!

These are amazing performers and do a fantastic tribute to Pink Floyd. However, there were many parts that were just too darn loud, to the point of pain and damage. I have seen some loud concerts but this was a bit over the top at points. The sound guy needs to realize that a little less, is better. Pink Floyd was not a heavy metal band, but the sound was set up like heavy metal. I was disappointed by this. I just couldn't enjoy some of my favorite parts like guitar solos, but I had to plug my ears. Come on guys, most of this audience did not come to get their ears blown out but to enjoy the sounds from Floyd. My only other complaint is that the lead guitar guy with long hair should chill a bit. Floyd performed their music in a laid back chilled way and not bouncing around like a punker. It was a bit distracting.The other guitarist was more chill. But I must say, they both are amazing guitarists and have David Gilmour's sound down well.

Third time to see them and have no reason not to do it again. We used this as an event to get a bunch of us from high school back together.

The show, overall, was really great and at a perfectly-sized venue. Lots of lights, lasers, and smoke. And the beautiful, voluptuous redheaded dancers (& NOT too darn skinny.. THANK YOU!) were an awesome part of the show. We had an absolute blast!! The initial portion of the concert where they played a lot of The Wall was perfect volume and the balance of sound was fantastic. I'm the last person to complain of how loud something is, but if I had 1 (& ONLY 1) complaint, it's that after The Wall, the volume was then turned up so loud that vocals were sometimes difficult to hear and even one of the lead guitars was barely audible at times.

Sounded just like Pink Floyd, but there were several moments where the acoustics drowned out the vocals, which made those sets difficult to enjoy. Also, the ballerina and aerialists seemed quite out of place. The pole dancers were a great touch as they added to "Dirty Girl". I did not at all appreciate the "bar room" atmosphere of the venue. I paid to hear & watch the concert, not listen to work gossip & personal life complaints from people hanging out at the bar behind me. Nor did I appreciate the people being allowed to smoke marijuana inside The Pageant during the concert? THERE ARE NO SEATS! Most everyone at the concert had to stand, crowded together, for the entire show (8pm-11:30pm).
