Beyond This Point

Awesome concert sounded better than there cd. Can,t wait till next tour!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Amazing show! Brooke Fraser rocked the house with her performance. Very passionate and the opening act killed it as well! Went to both NY shows and they both were awesome!

I've been a Zucchero fan for 20 years, and have long wanted to see him perform live. I flew from NC to Atlanta for the sole purpose of attending this Black Cat concert, and the experience was life-changing. Zu is such a dynamic performer, and his band members are all great musicians from rich, eclectic backgrounds. Everyone associated with this show was superb, from sound mixers to lighting crew, and stagehands. Onstage, Zu gives 100%, is in complete control, yet allows the organic life of the music to steer the experience. He "feeds" off the audience reaction, to the point that we are part of the permormance, too. By the end of the evening, I felt as though I was a personal friend of Zu, as he shared stories of his life and his process for creating music. I felt as though his purpose in performing was to bring joy and beauty into my life, and this was definitely achieved! His music makes you move, and moves your emotions, as well. I only hope that I will, someday, have another opportunity to see this magnificent, beautiful musician!!!

No Age knows no boundaries. They kept the delay until the encore to like 2 minutes and never left the stage, which made it that much better.

I loved the Kelly Rowland performance...I will definitely go to another Kelly Rowland concert as soon as possible.

We couldn't wait to see David & Ruben because we are BIG Idol fans. But Straight No Chaser was Fab! Just wish David & Ruben sang more! Two songs apiece was not enough. Too many pre recorded songs. Watching the skaters that we watch on TV was amazing.

I was impressed with the quality of the DJ's. The staff was pretty friendly. i didn't see a single fight. My friends and I were there from America and loved the whole experience. Much thanks to all who worked so hard on the event.

After seeing Patterson at the same venue a year ago and that show being one of the best live performances I've ever witnessed, I had very high expectations of more of the same. Instead I ended up with F-bombs every other word during the banter between each song. So much that it ruined the show. The stage was set with the opening act who acted like a teen Cobain imitating Murdock from the A Team. 13 year old angst with silly lyrics that reminded me why skateboarding was such a quick fad. Patterson looked comfortable by himself and it's hard to beat the sound of a decent acoustic guitar in the Bijou. But the language was not rock and roll. It was inappropriate, like showing up drunk at your brothers wedding. Awkward indeed. Distraction is what it was. I've supported Patterson and his bands for years. Recruited lots of fans. But this was just awful.

They are great but come on... show starts at 9:30 and you don't go on till after 12:30AM?!? upsetting!!! Still had an awesome time... but come on!

You cannot discount the element of luck when speaking of a bands success, or lack thereof. And that is speaking commercially, not critically. All bands crave critical acclaim, and in most cases that praise can lead to record/concert sales. New York(via Missouri) rockers White Rabbits (Stephen Patterson-vocals/piano, Alexander Even-guitars/vocals, Matthew Clark-drums/percussion, Jamie Levinson-drums, Gregory Roberts-vocals/guitar, Rustine Bragaw-bass) have their fair share of positive press. But fresh off their third albums release, Milk Famous, can this be the year they break through? Hell, Arcade Fire won a Best Everything Grammy a mere two years ago. How did that happen if not for some luck. An aggressive PR agent maybe? A and R man who wouldn't quit. What do the Black Keys have White Rabbits don't? More humor? Confidence? Better representation? Luck?? It is not a bigger sound. It is not a bolder and more confident stage presence. It is not a more concise and polished set. No sir, White Rabbits have an aggressive, energetic and down-right fun hour plus set that was in full display last night at their native city's Webster Hall. It need not apologize for lacking the record sales or larger venues those other bands can boast. Let's call it right place, wrong time. If last night was any indicator these fellas are on the brink of stardom. They leaned heavily on Milk Famous and the results were seamless and successful. The moody "Heavy Metal" opened the set. For their first release it is a nice way to start, but far from the best work on this record, A few songs later the piano heavy "I'm Not Me" showcased strong melody and sheer exhuberance. There is an ELO thing going on here and it sure can bring a smile to your face. And let's not forget the toe tapping... or here, clapping. They dipped into their debut record, 2007's Fort Nightly, and blitzed through "While We Go Dancing." "There's Something That You Want to Say/I'm Not Asking/Just Sleep You're Nights Away/While We Go Dancing" are not just lyrics, but commands. Six pieces working on all cylinders. Vocals, guitar, bass, piano, and the drums... the drums... the drums. Never are those drums more on display than with their hit, Percussion Gun, from 2009's It's Frightening. Beautiful tribal beats fill the air as the band slowly kicks in... then out... then in again. Immediately after a spirited version of "The Plot" they sequed into their gothic "Lionesse." It played like a mix of Danny Elfman and The Band, circa 1975. More toe tapping goodness. The boys were confident enough to incorporate new material into their encores too, leading off with "Danny Come Inside." Their long guitar-heavy intro popped and would surely make Bradford Cox smile. Someone in Hollywood needs to add this song to a chase scene and fast. If "Percussion Gun" is their drum calling card "Danny Come Inside" is their electric bass/guitar signature. Finally they slowed down "Kid on My Shoulders" to the point of unrecognizable. A groovy bass line and hints of a Brian DePalma score gave new freshness to an already fresh song. All good. All confident. All in. No wasted moments. Little, to any banter with the reserved, but admiring crowd. A quality rock and roll outfit who should be playing larger arenas, and fast. Meatloaf at Wellmont? Sinead? If those folks can get three thousand there is no reason White Rabbits can't. The luck has got to change. With their talent that is the only logical explanation. Take heed Alt World, and beyond.
