Kaiser Chiefs

What an amazing show!! The Kaiser Chiefs played with a punk infused energy that's captivating. It was such an amazing experience to see them in such a small venue as they're more likely to fill arenas back in Europe. I can't wait for the next tour!!!

The Kaiser Chiefs played a great set to a small, but energetic crowd on a Sunday night. The National was eerily empty, however the band delivered an exciting high-energy set of their most popular tunes. The crowd seemed to know the words to nearly all the songs and sang along throughout the night. A great time. An appreciative crowd. The band deserved better.

What a fantastic show. The venue was surprisingly well organized, and we had a blast. Ricky, as always, really sold the show, and the opening act wasn't bad either!

The show was amazing. The band had a great stage feeling. The vocalist was great. He gave us a great show. The run around the stage was a memorable thing. Not even to mention the setlist. Completely perfect!!! All his great songs in fantastic order and in great spirits.

Nice band, nice place. The Staff was fantastic! A very good night to remember! Ow, and the band, well, they are Kaiser Chiefs!!! Simply great!!

LOVED the Kaiser Chiefs at T5. Amazing energy. Tons of fun.

Kaiser Chiefs always have ridiculously bad opening acts, but they more than make up for it with their energy and enthusiasm!

Even though he had a hoarse voice during the performance, you could sense that he was trying to do his best during the whole act and the people responded in good way for that effort. Probably beacuse of the throat problem that night the show was a little short for a band that has 4 albums, they only played around 13 songs total; the setlist was pretty good though. The rest of the band played their part and save the night, specially the drummer (whom is one of the leaders of the group) that help in the vocals during many songs, giving some rest to Rocky Wilson (the lead vocals).

Too loud to enjoy the music or voices. The moshing and beer-throwing drove us out.

not just the songs are great but the performance of those guys is truly amazing! you must see it live!

They sounded great and put on a great show as well. Definitely would see them again. They have so many great tunes wish they played them all.

Even with the 2:30pm slot on Sunday! Kaiser Chiefs got the crowd going and sounded GREAT. I can only imagine if they had a later slot. Kaiser Chiefs were fantastic.

Taking the stage after the intro to Money for Nothing, the KC put on a blistering 90 min show. The new material blended in perfectly with the old, as the crowd sang and chanted through every song.Ricky Wilson was in fine form, whipping the crowd into a frenzy as he leapt about the stage and made his customary charge to the bar for a few shots. Andrew Whites guitar work was stellar as was the keyboards of Nick Baines. The rythm section kept everything pounding along nicely. After a rousing Oh MY God , they were gone, leaving everyone wanting more. Can"t wait for their next show!

Great band, polished, just as good live or better than recorded. Underrated group.

Kaiser Chiefs with Empires were amazing.This was my second time seeing Empires and they did not disappoint Kaiser Chiefs brought a lot of energy with them. def 2 bands that make your night special. would see them again

I actually went to this event to support the opening band Empires, but I ended up really enjoying Kaiser Chiefs. Definitely worth the money.

Amazing concert in Chicago. One of the best I've been to. Ricky Wilson is an unbelievable performer; have no idea where he gets all the energy! They did a nice mix of their best old and new songs; good connection with the audience; thankfully no light show or gimmicks, so it was possible to just enjoy the music and the lyrics. Would recommend highly to anyone.

Kaiser Chiefs never fail to put on the best, crowd-involved shows I've seen. The smaller venues are nice, but they don't disappoint at the bigger places either.

This show was amazing. I've wanted to see the Kaiser Chiefs for about 4 years, but have never been able to before now. They rocked every song, and looked to be having a blast while doing it. The singer Ricky Wilson was constantly moving and provided non stop energy to the crowd. That being said every one in the band did an amazing job, playing with skill and professionalism that was wonderful to experience. The Chiefs played almost all of the favs, and did a good job mixing in some of their newer songs. I particularly liked "Little Shocks" from their newish album, and a song called "Listen to Your Head" which they have not released yet (youtube it for some live recordings, it looks to be a good one) Additionally I feel it is worth noting that the opening act Empire (who forgot to introduce themselves), was also amazing. When they came out, it almost felt like they were the main band. very good synergy with the Chiefs too. The House of Blues in Chicago, is an amazing venue. This was the first time I'd been there, and I was impressed to say the least. It's not huge as places go, but there's a deceptive amount of room. It's a beautiful building, and allows for a very intimate experience with the band. i was about 25 feet from the stage, but others were right at the front. Also the acoustics are AMAZING!! something you don't necessarily find in all venues. All in all it was an amazing show that is vying for the best show I've ever seen. I would highly recommend trying to get tickets to see this awesome band live!

I have seen the Kaiser Chiefs half a dozen times & they never disappoint! Ricky has so much energy & not only are they fun to watch, they rock!!!

Kaiserchiefs started at 9pm and played until 10:20pm. I found this a little short (with only one encore), but they did play all their (even older) hits in between the new songs. Concert itself was great, good vibe, but could have been longer!

Bloody brilliant, despite small audience; ended too early.

Great show, as expected. The lead singer ran through the crowd and jumped up on the bar and sang. Awesome.

Kaiser Chiefs put on such a great show at the Showbox Market. Excellent energy, great sound, great set. I loved it!

This was honestly one of the best concerts I've been to. Not only was Kaiser Chiefs amazing, Walk the Moon and Transfer were equally good. I absolutely adored the whole concert and would love to see any of the bands live again.

The Kaiser Chiefs rocked at the showbox! The two bands before them were pretty good too, but not nearly as amazing as the Kaiser Chiefs. There was so much energy in the room and it seemed as if everyone was having a great time. I'd definitely see them again!

So much great energy. Drunken rock stars that can hold their liqueur made the show awesome.

The show was excellent, especially the singer of the Kaiser Chiefs amazes! And of course: the music is brilliant!

This was a great and energetic show! The Kaiser Chiefs know how to entertain.

So on Friday we headed over to the Showbox at the Market for Kaiser Chiefs. I love this venue. The layout is spacious with the elevated bar areas in the corners. The venue is small enough that you can see everything on the stage from the back corners. The bouncers are not very friendly but I guess that's part of their job, to appear threatening all the time. Beer's are smaller than a pint at the same price as a big one. Not cool. Volume is loud for the smallish venue but once you lose part of your hearing it's fine and you feel the kick drum like a heart beat. The band: I wasn't a big fan of Kaiser Chiefs before but it's not everyday that you get to see a international act from up close. And boy did they impress. They are very tight and not overly flashy. The front man keeps the show together and manhandles the crowd to do his every whim. I don't like it if they keep asking for more noise and more applause etc but the crowd responded with energy. I would recommend the Kaiser Chiefs just for the sheer musical entertainment that is British rock.

Transfer, the first opening act was original and hard rocking. Walking on the Moon was an up an coming boy band which I didn't really enjoy -but my 16 yo daughter did! The Kaiser Chiefs put on a great show with lots of energy, pace and audience participation. The band is tight and their lead singer knows how to work the crowd. Great gig,

It was an absolutely storming show at the Fillmore this week. Great sound, huge energy and to see one of the world's great bands in this size venue was a major treat.

Excellent event and a really good venu. Just the right size for live music.

Great show...small venue makes it special! Still wonna see they next time on a big areana or stadium...Come on Leeds!

We've been waiting a long time for the Kaiser Chiefs to come to Houston, and it was well worth the wait. They played a great mix of hits and new songs. Ricky (singer) was great at banter and getting around the venue. Extremely entertaining. I can't wait for their return!

Absolutely brilliant concert! They are a fantastic live band, would definitely go to see them again!

The opening act by Walk the Moon was the best part of the show for me. The Kaiser Chiefs did rock pretty hard though, so that was fun too. The only bad part of the concert was the people. They were rude and obnoxious.

I wasn't a huge fan of Kaiser Chiefs recorded stuff - I actually went to the show to see one of the opening bands. However, their live show was super entertaining. I'd definitely pay to see them live again. Terminal 5 is also a great venue - they have several bars and a rooftop area where you can chill in between bands. Sound was really good.

was the most amazing concert ive ever gone to!!!!!

Amazing, amazing show. So much energy; the crowd got into it. Played their most upbeat songs. Would see them again a million times because it was so much fun.

Ricky Wilson made this show. He climbs everything in sight and is probably one of the best frontmen around these days. Totally worth it, would even pay four times as much to see them again.

Highly recommend the Kaiser Chiefs but do not recommend ever going to Terminal 5.

If I didn't love them before I am now. What a phenomenally charged show! Very single second was explosive. Love this band, will go again when they come back!! And please do, NY loves you!!!!

Band had awesome energy and great relationship with crowd.

To start with you must know that I am old (50+). Take that as good or bad, but from my perspective its a good thing, because I have become more critical in my old age and it is getting harder and harder to impress me. I am still looking for the "next big thing". I am also an anglophile loving everything from Kinks, Beatles, Stones, Clash, Pistols, Oasis, Blur, so I am constantly following anything new coming out of England because I think the music, especially rock, is just so much better. (There you know where I coming from). I have been following the Kaiser Chiefs since their first album. I think there lyrics are hysterical (Angry Mob, Everything Is Average Nowadays, etc..). I always thought their music would translate very well live, kinda of punk, but I have been let down so many times when the sonic sound in recordings cannot be replicated live (best example, The Pretenders first album - Just shows how good a producer Chris Thomas was). Anyway the Kaisers were phenomenal live. Many of the songs were actually better live than recorded (e.g. Ruby, Angry Mob) and some were just I had imagined [hoped] they would be [Everything is Average Nowadays, I predict a Riot]. Very well balanced band , very entertaining. There was not a lull in the entire show, and they were very smart playing primarily from their old catalog and mixing in the best of their new album. Left very satisfied. Didn't see the "next big thing" , but I did see a great rock band who deserves far more airplay and a following in the US. If you have a chance, well worth your dollar.

Ricky Wilson is a great performer. The songs from their new album The Future is Medieval which was released in US on March 6th of this year under the title Start the Revolution Without Me has some great songs. The crowd went berserk with their popular old numbers like 'Ruby' and 'I Predict A Riot'. A thoroughly enjoyable show for all indie/punk rock aficionados.

One of only 3 U.S. shows this tour and lots of fun, even tho this could be considered a \u2018warm-up gig for the upcoming festival dates. The new songs don t stand up against the familiar ones (but I think that s de riguer for these guys or at least until the new ones become familiar). The new drummer is a powerhouse! The opener \u2018Honduras , looked like 5 teenage kids who should be playing pick-up basketball in somebody s driveway, but delivered a smart, catchy set

This show was downgraded from the HoB and it s a shame that people don t know what they re missing, as these guys fill stadiums in their native UK. The songs are short, catchy and have that great sing-along quality that make you feel part of the crowd right away. In the cozy confines of the Paradise, the crowd was enthusiastic and gave them a hero s welcome. The set list featured songs from the latest CD Education Education Education and War , but there were an equal number of old favorites, plus a B-side and a new one. My complaints were few: with their shorter songs, 18 of them go by way too quickly; and that I probably have to wait another 2 years for them to return to Boston.

I knew from the moment I found out The Kaiser Chiefs were coming to town i HAD to see them!I was excited to see them,obviously,and they did not disappoint!My sister went with me even though she wasn't into them,but she got into it quickly,and came out a fan.They played songs from their old albums through to their new hits.They put on a fabulous show,and I hope(and cannot wait) to see them again!!!

Kaiser Chiefs blew the doors off the theater - amazing, energetic show from start to finish. I did not want it to end. Priory (the opener) was good also.

Superb amounts of energy and a really awesome show. It was a ton of fun seeing Kaiser Chiefs. The crowd was small but KC gave us their all. I was very impressed and I am already looking forward to the next time they tour in the US.

This concert was one I was anticipating for months and it did not disappoint. I have loved these guys since they started and though it was sad not to get to see Nick on drums, I still got to see Ricky, Peanut, and the gang do their thing live and I will never forget it. I have never been to a show at the Pageant that wasn't packed but I thought it added a touch of personal feeling to the show. Loved that. Ricky is the best frontman I have ever seen. So much energy.

A BRILLIANT gig - not many people in but Ricky and the boys gave a tremendous performance for those of us that we're!

To bad more people in St. Louis don't know about the Kaiser Chiefs because the show was very good! The crowd at the Pageant was small but they gave it 100% anyway. I would suggest everyone go check them out.

I had a great time. Would happily go again. Venue was perfect: big enough to house a crowd, but small enough that you felt like you were part of something special.

Really enjoyed the concert, couldn't believe they were playing in such a small venue, very personal performance and 100% given to the fans .....great night !

Great concert. Venue was fantastic, it was quite small which made the event seem very intimate. Its the first time that we have seen the Kaiser Chiefs but it won't be the last. Ricky Wilson was amazing, not at all what we expected, great energy and a great front man. We were stood right at the front near the stage and had a fantastic view. Loved everything about this concert.

As an avid concert attendee, I've been to my fare share of epic performances. Kaiser Chiefs trumped them all! The whole night was the craziest, most fun I've had in a while!

Kaiser Chiefs played a lot of songs from their most recent album, plus a good selection of favorites from their previous ones. The energy of the band, particularly the singer and drummer, was incredible! And very communicative to the audience. Awesome gig!

I loved this concert!!! This band is full of energy and they are great interacting with the public absolutely in love with this band.i would give five stars at this sow but honestly the security staff in the Webster Hall wasn't great; I told one of the guys that a strange dude was bothering me and he just looked at me and walked away. Anyway the Kaiser Chiefs are terrific I would recomend their shows very much !!!

What a performer Ricky Wilson is! He is so energetic and is able to keep it up throughout the entire concert! I loved Webster Hall as well, it is a typical small NY venue, and the acoustic is fantastic. Just love going to concerts in NYC!

Best show ever!!!! The guys have a lot of energy and the setlist was the best!

Another great show from these guys! I hadn't listed to their new album, but might go buy it now after hearing a few songs.

Awesome band, awesome set, intimate-ish venue = unforgettable show. I wish these British bands came around more often.

What a brilliant show. The frontman was a showman along the lines of Freddie Mercury / Iggy Pop. The band played all their hits, along with the best of their new stuff. It was just a completely fantastic show, one of the best I've attended. It was an intimate venue, and they totally rocked it.

The show was fantastic, even though poor Ricky had a stomach bug. They were all incredible, including Ricky. I was so happy to see them here in the states. A brilliant band that needs to catch on over here. And HOB was great, actually let us trade out our balcony tickets to get closer seating that was newly opened. Very cool. Overall a great night and a fabulous band. I would recommend seeing Kaiser Chiefs any day!

Excellent sound, excellent songs by an excellent band

Lots of energy, lots of interaction with the audience, lots of well-known songs for KC fans to sing along with along with some wonderful tunes from Education, Education, Education and War. Around $55 for two tickets; would have been cheap at twice the price for the quality of performance. Streets of Laredo opened and they would have been worth the price of admission alone.

I have wanted to see Kaiser Chiefs for a solid decade, and I finally got to see them in Louisville. I drove 5 hours for this concert, and it was totally worth it. This was one of my favorite shows ever. They sounded fantastic and were so fun and engaging. And I loved the venue. I wish I could experience that night all over again!

A real good time! The Brits always know how to rock! The singer walked amongst us, sat in the crowd, and fixed himself a drink. Very intimate setting, so close you can touch the stage with ease. One of those shows you remember for its intimacy. Also, not too crazy loud, a plus.

A great concert experience!! Lead singer Ricky Wilson is quite a showman, getting down into the audience and interacting with us multiple times. Kaiser Chiefs have several wonderful songs and deserve to be better known here in the U.S. and worldwide.

In their first trip to the U.S. in quite some time, Kaiser Chiefs reminded fans why we kept listening and what an amazing band they are to see live. They're back in the States in June and I would urge you to check out a show!
