I love this club! We got there a little early, not hours early, but maybe 20 minutes or so. Great seats - again. Even had time for a little snack too - sliders. Wonderful food! Served quickly and hot. The wait staff did not get in the way of the show. Two opening acts - both were entertaining. It's hard to appreciate someone else's act when waiting for your favorite to appear. Ben Bailey was funny - laughed all throughout his set. Even was geeky enough to get my picture taken with him afterwards. I've seen some great comics here - Ralphie May, John Pinnette - and Ben Bailey was right there with them. I continue to look forward to continuing going to Cobb's Club and seeing more great acts. This one was great. I had a great time!!

The concert was a real trip back to the 80's. I had the privilege of seeing The Smiths, my favorite all time alternative band, twice. They would be proud of The Sons & Heirs. They truly did The Smiths justice. I would highly recommend seeing them. I wish they were in our area more often. I would see them every time. Of course, there were songs I wished they played that they didn't like Headmaster's Ritual, The Queen is Dead, Hand in Glove to name a few. Maybe next time. I have seen Morrissey a number of times. He is always so entertaining and now that he sings Smiths songs even better. The whole evening was a blast from the past and the crowd was energizing. LOVED IT!

No justice is a great band with good songs. the concert itself was far too loud for the location and it started later than comfortable for out-of-town persons with even a half-hour commute. Earplugs were needed to distinguish the lyrics and the feature band started very late (after 9:30 pm). I'd see No Justice again - different location with earlier performance. I'll avoid Bridgeview in the future unless they can promise to lower the volume below ear damaging levels where a person can actually distinguish the lyrics and really enjoy the music. Light effects sometimes flashed blinding light into eyes.

The concert was great, until everyone around started smoking weed and drinking out of control! Even the staff disapeared after everyone started smoking, no one was saying anything about it. We had to leave early because of all the smell of weed. And Yes so many people were coming to the front seats when they were originally sitting way on top or back, not fair for everyone who paid good money to sit in front. Security Staff were looking elsewhere didnt want to deal with it, they just let them after a while. They need a better way of checking tickets and stopping people from Smoking out where theres young kids in the arena trying to enjoy an all age show!

An amazing show by two of my favorite DJs, playing an all vinyl set from the legendary Afrika Bambastaas very own collection!

This was my first time seeing any of these bands. The Scissors opened. They were full of energy and amazing. Switching between 2 different lead singers, they had a No Doubt feel and then a Weezer feel to them. I loved the switch up!!! I didn't care too much for State and Madison. They just didn't have the energy to them to keep me interested. I have heard a little bit of AM Taxi before, but live? They blew me away! The energy that poured into the crowd was intense! I was jumping with happiness while they played. Dot Dot Dot had been hyped up to me, but I just could not get into them. They were a little more happy and not as much punk as the other bands. I feel they were not the best fit with the rest. Given the chance, I would listen to Dot Dot Dot again, but not as a headliner. Any chance I get to see AM Taxi or The Scissors again, I will be there!!!!!!!

The performance was awesome as usual, but I was disappointed in the lack of audience enthusiasm.

It was the second time I have seen the Blind Boys in concert. They do not disappoint. It was mostly new music with the same energy as I remember it. How do they do it? All I can say is their music keeps them young and alive with grace, love and praise. Being in the beautiful and small venue of the American Theatre was also perfect for this group. If they come back, I will too!

The concert started very promptly and Reik was really good. Then Natalia comes out and her songs and voice are amazing! She's such a happy person and entertained the crowd without a problem. I really enjoyed myself!

Got what I needed PLUS++++ This band is a live behemoth.
