Avatar

BEST BAND but worst venue. Columns block 40% view.

OUR first Avatar Concert and first concert at Old National. Both was UNBELIEVABLE AND AMAZING!

Avatar knows how to rock the house! Perfect concert hands down.

This was my first time seeing Avatar and they did not disappoint. I immediately wanted to see them in concert again and can't wait. Bogart's is general admission so there is no seating on the floor. They do have a few tables toward the back if you need to sit for a few. The only thing about the concert that was annoying was the drunk women. They were loud and obnoxious the entire time. But the band was awesome and even signed afterwards. So overall a great night.

If You DON'T go see Avatar next time they are in the states, you're missing out on the next biggest act to carry the torch for Metal. This band will literally rock your world and I GUARANTEE YOU, you wont be disappointed. This is my third time seeing them and they will make you a fan as soon as their first song comes out. Always a good time, and they put on one HELL of a show.

Totally Great show!!!!! If you don't know who Avatar is,.....You soon will! Hail!\\m/\\m/

I absolutely love this band, I studied up on them before they came to town, but was absolutely blown away when they performed. They brought incredible energy and got everyone moving. Their songs are perfect for moshing/headbanging and this band just does not disappoint! GO SEE THEM IN CONCERT!

Avatar is a great band. This was my 3rd time seeing them, 1st they headlined. They re theatrical and know how to put on a great show. Hail to The King!

Avatar at the Aztec was a good experience, it wasn't too crowded and I got a close view of the front. The band put on a show and sang their hits. The front man was wacky and entertaining. I'll definitely see them again.

A must see!!!! This is my 3rd show with Avatar, and they just keep giving a stellar performance. Swedish metal Gods for sure! The opening acts: Hellzapoppin were out of this world! More Brains was a unique metal, rockabilly sound. Come one, come all to see the best! So jeslous of Sweden. They have the best men and a king!

Avatar put on one hell of a show on a cold icy night in Atlanta. Seeing the King play guitar live in person was priceless!

I ve seen them 3 other times and they put on an awesome show! The opening act was unique due to that it was like a magician and freak show! It was a great way to start to the show.

Avatar did not disappoint Saturday night! They played a good mix of both old and new songs. Johannes stage presence was charismatic and commanding, and God I love his voice! Kungen played his riffs like the God and king he is. Well worth the ticket! Glory to our King for this is Avatar Country!

Outstanding time as always. Avatar did and awesome job, I have seen them every time they have played here. Gun Metal Grey was really good, they did originals and some covers, most notable Metallica, which was done well. The Chameleon Club is great, nice layout and staff treats me well everytime.

3 unique bands - This is our 5th time seeing Avatar and they just get better and better! Awesome stage show, interaction with the crowd and that connection between crowd and performer you hope for. They played a great mix of new and old music too. As with all bands, the bigger they get, the harder it is to socialize directly with fans. They were able to meet and greet us all so that was kick ass, having them remember us is even cooler! the second change to experience Meka Nism here and they are so talented. The onstage look and feel is 1 of a kind. with the leads vocals, her wide ranges made it even more interesting. Off stage they are some of the best people I know. Even with a mishap with a trailer they still made it, put on a great show! Sunflower Dead was new to us. The sound was different and neat, and the onstage act was something that reminded me of old, maybe a bit of old school "Munster's". Love to see them again! The music was clear and easy to hear and understand by all. Sound and lighting was better than other times too. The staff is always great to us. Remembering us every time is awesome too.

What a perfect concert! Avatar on Halloween! First time seeing them in concert and I love their music! They put 200% into their performance! Can't wait to see them again!

Fantastic show. If you haven't seen Avatar live, you are missing out. Over the last 15 years I have seen countless acts in the rock and metal vein, and Avatar is among the top 5 best acts for sure! They sound spot on to the studio recordings. And the energy they give off is really unbelievable. I have seen them multiple times, and the show never disappoints. Cheers!

Avatar are unlike any previous bands that I've seen live. When you see them all together, it's like a brotherhood. And when they perform, while each person is highlighted, they are like a symbiotic unit. Their cues are perfect, everyone knows what they are doing, and they perform like a top shelf bourbon that's been pushed far to the back and forgotten, just as many metal bands have been these days, but once you pour yourself a glass, you're in for a hell of a treat. They are potent and raw, and they did not disappoint. If you haven't seen Avatar live, do so. And hang around after, because, as I learned, they like to meet the fans.

This is my 2nd time seeing Avatar and they are excellent if you like hard rock or metal. The stage show is excellent along with the music. The guys in Avatar are extremely friendly and spend a lot of time with fans after the show signing and posing for pictures. You will definitely hear the name Avatar a lot more in the future.. these guys are here to stay

This show was totally kick ass!!! The venue allowed the people in the crowd to be right up against the stage. I would reccomend this band, this venue, everything. Amazing.

I thought the show was amazing I have been listening to avatar for quite a while now and didn't think I'd ever get to see them because they're from overseas I'm glad I finally got to catch them and it was even better being at Pierre's that was the first show I've been to at Pierre's where you could get right up to the stage there was no guardrail or security guards you could get right up to the stage and get so close.

It's been a year since I was introduced to Avatar as they opened up for Sevendust on their 2013 tour. I am an avid concert goer, and the majority of the shows I frequent fall within the hard rock/heavy metal genre. This, however, is the first review of a show I have ever written since starting my concert adventures over a decade ago. Why review now, you ask? Well, frankly, AVATAR impressed me SO MUCH as an emerging band, that I felt a duty to spread the word of their awesomeness. After purchasing their newest album, "Hail The Apocalypse!" I was reminded of how talented they truly are and hope their music catches on like wildfire. In reference to their live show, I saw them on Valentine's Day with my husband, who in fact HATES metal with a passion, but accompanied me as a gesture of love and kindness on the holiday. By the end of the show, he was cheering for them just as loudly as I was! I wasn't sure what to expect once they took the stage. Johannes (vocalist) came out with clown make-up and a gas can, and I remember thinking, "oh, here's just another band trying up keep up with the popularity of shocking their audience." But i immediately recognized I had absolutely misjudged. Their carnival-like image captures the real essence of the music. Their image combined with lyrical content and presentation is a true piece of art. From their circular headbanging to the costumes and make-up, Avatar delivers an entertaining performance. My favorite song they played live was "Let It Burn." This band is off to do great things. And if you have the chance to see them, take full advantage of this mind-blowing experience called AVATAR.

I think that Avatar put on an amzing show. I recommend that they keep up with the great work and can't wait for more shows and albums.

what can you say... avatar puts on a great show no matter where it is.... but the deluxe gave it the seediness that makes seeing a metal band special... highly recommended!

What a show!! AVATAR completely rocked the venue and left everyone wanting more! In true fashion, the entire show was a theatrical masterpiece. Lead singer, Johannes Eckerstrom, puts on a fuel-packed performance and never slows down! The rest of the band - Jonas "Kungen" Jarlsby, Tim Ohrstrom, Henrik Sandelin, and John Alfredsson - are absolutely amazing on their own...but when you put them all together, something magical happens. My only regret for the show was the venue. I felt the band, the show, and the tour deserved a larger stage than the Deluxe at Old National Centre. This was definitely an experience that should have rated the Egyptian Room instead. Overall though, the show was amazing and the band was phenomenal! I would highly recommend AVATAR for anyone interested in true metal. Looking forward to the next time I can see them in concert!! :)

Avatar never disappoints. Always a fun head banging time.

The show at the Old national Centre, in the basement! Avatars set was Great the managed to Preform show in relation to there videos on youtube, actually hearing the lead singer vocal range. I believe they would have had better show in larger venue! But would love to see them again!

Hellzapopin, The Brains and Avatar all put on an amazing show. I plan on seeing them again in the future.

loved the opener and of course Avatar was amazing. second time seeing them and they blew my mind again! would have been better upstairs, the pillars get in the way in the basement. especially for a sold out show.

Experiencing Avatar yet again in such a small, intimate venue was just as exciting as seeing them for the first time at a large music festival. Avatar are excellent performers and always grab attention in new ways every new tour and show. This was a great spectacle to witness. Go see them. This venue was spectacular. Very intimate.

7th time seeing them and they never disappoint! \\m/

Avatar was an awesome concert! The freak show beforehand was killer! The band before Avatar wasn't very impressive but Avart themselves were absolutely amazing!

The show was fantastic! Avatar's shows get better every time we see them. It was our first time seeing Hellzapoppin' and we will definitely go see them again. The Brains were a unique experience and we loved it!!!

U can t just see one show. They keep u coming back for more & more! Very talented band!

Avatar does not disappoint! It was both entertaining and interesting. My kids also loved Hellzapoppin.

Hail the King! Avatar is a highly underrated band. Introduced to their music last year when I seen In This Moment. Instantly hooked, bad ass!

Avatar is the best live metal band I have seen ever. House of Blues is an outstanding place to go see a show. They were very organized and professional.

There is no better live band than Avatar! We've seen them 12 times in less than 2 years. Johannes is the best frontman alive! Every single member of the band gives it their all every single performance. You can tell they LOVE what they do. Even if you don't know a single song of theirs, go see them in concert. You will leave being a fan of the greatest band EVER!

This band puts on an amazing show! And they sound great live!!!! I will see them every chance I get! My only knock would be the venue. The doors opened late on a 10 degree night and $12 a beer is a joke

First time seeing Avatar. Looking forward to seeing them again.

Avatar is one hell of a show. They really throw it down and go all out. The opening freak show act was also pretty freaking awesome. Haven't had that much fun at a concert in years.

I've seen Avatar several times and each time as been different and amazing! Always so much fun, never a dull moment with these guys! Go see them on a headline tour, you won't be disappointed!

From the Freakshow ,to The Brains , to Especially Avatar, the concert was Great!

Great show. Came across Avatar when they opened for In This Moment in the summer of 2017. Incredible live performance, worth the ticket price. Saw them again in Philly after this show, if your into this kind of music, you have to see them live

Avatar put on a great show for more then 90 minutes. This was the first time that I saw them headline and they did not disappoint. I only knew about half of the 17 songs,however it did not matter. I recommend seeing them headline and you will be very happy that you did.

It was great to see this band on their first ever have mining US tour. Brighton Music Hall always a great venue to see a show.

One of my favorite venues to see live music around Boston. Avatar remains metal AF while filling a room with bubbles.

Avatar has crept its way up my list of must see bands, 5 Swedish dudes, long hair, bad ass stage presence. An hour and a half of pure energy and windmilling. If an Avatar show comes between you and something else, drop the other thing. Job, significant other? Less important than this show.

The best show I have seen in a long time. The venue is great and the band is spectacular. There live show is second to their music \\m/

It was an awesome show. Avatar kicked ass and every song sounded just like the albums. I definitely plan on seeing them again if they come to the Boston area

This is the third time my husband and I have seen Avatar!!! They are amazing and I love them all!!

The whole entire show was an unforgettable performance. Best concert I've been to in a while. Avatar rocked it! Can't wait to see them again!

It was a spectacular show as usual avatar sets the bar for most awesome showmanship

I've been to plenty of concerts in my life, ranging from Rock on the Range and Louder Than Life to see these guys, as well as many other smaller venues, but this concert was by far the best I have been to yet. Starting out they had circus acts come on stage (Not singers) performing all kinds of acts from magic,playing with fire, to twisted weight lifting from your eyelids, and other piercings. I can say the only part from this I enjoyed was the magician as the others seemed a bit cheesy, but still a different way to start of the show. The band that opened for them "Brains" was from Canada, and the lead vocalist had a good voice, and they were decent for me not knowing them. The entire show took a turn when Avatar came out on stage as the presentation and synchronized head banging was timed perfectly throughout the performance. He did not stick to one era of music and played big songs from many albums in the past the even songs from the one that is set to release January 12th, 2018. I am thinking about seeing them again in Cleveland com February because the show was just that good. Even if you're not a hardcore metal fan you MUST see AVATAR live, as the vocals seem better and the performance is like no one else!

So this was the first date on Avatar's "The King Wants You" tour and they did not disappoint. If you have never seen Avatar live before, you must go. They always put on a good show and never let up. I had originally seen them for the very first time at Rock on the Range a few years back and have been hooked ever since. I had never heard of them before and they had played the small stage at ROTR and I just had to check out their albums after seeing them perform live. I have been a fan ever since and have seen them 6 times now. I like that they change up their set and set list. Just a very entertaining band all around. And of course being from Sweden gives them bonus points. Plus, they are all gorgeous men so that doesn't hurt either! The King can gladly have me, as I give my allegiance to him and Avatar.

Awesome !! Avatar delivers a great show !! Huge show for the price .

I have never seen them live, I am a newer fan, and I had such an amazing time. They being great presence, performance, and energy. Not sure I liked the parody of the radio station before their set, but overall Great show!!!

This show was one of the best I've ever seen! Express Live was an excellent venue - Large enough to accommodate the crowd yet small enough to be "up close and personal" with the band. The sideshow was very entertaining if not a little creepy at times, and the opening band was very good, just not what I expected at an Avatar show. Bottom line: This show is well worth seeing; Avatar rocked the house and I would definitely travel to see them again!

Awesome show!!!! Was not disappointed with any act at this show!! Can't wait to see them again

Avatar puts on such an incredible show, high energy, great crowd interaction. All the little touches truly made it an incredible show. Also, the idea of the sideshow act for an opener was genius, very fitting for the general feeling of the night.

The most entertaining band I've ever seen!!!!!!!!!

These are good dudes and they're all sorts of entertaining. Putting the fun in metal. Awesome awesome awesome~

Avatar puts on an amazing show from beginning to end. The band keeps up their image and gets the crowd involved, which really gets everyone pumped. Amazing stage presence. Amazing sound. Overall great band to see live. 10/10 will see again.

Great live band. Puts on an amazing show and audience engaging.

Awesome show by Mechanism, Sunflower Dead, and of course AVATAR. Left the show my ears were ringing, my throat was sore, and my neck was hurting. Would definitely go back again.

The whole show was amazing as usual. Great sound and nice staff. TLA is an all around wonderful venue.

Avatar is AMAZING live and you MUST go see them!!! This was my 3rd time at the Freakshow and they get better every time. Gemini Syndrome was fantastic too!!
