Ignite and Death By Stereo

My wife and I try to hit several shows a year at the Tivoli in Chattanooga. We're more of a 'classic rock' couple, but we enjoy listening live to different types of music. Bottom line: we really enjoyed Dave Rawlings! Toe tapping Americana folk! Fantasic harmonies and lyrics. Will definitly see him again next time he rolls into town!

The evening started with Amy Helm and The Handsome Strangers. Amy has a wonderful singing style and her band is very professional. I enjoyed them very much. Then came The Word. I love Robert Randolph's music and this band was excellent! We were a little surprised that no songs were sung until the encore with Amy Helm. Robert had some issues with his instrument, which in no way took away from the concert. He is just fantastic! What a talent. John Medeski on the keyboards was also really great. The North Mississippi Allstars were so talented, I really liked seeing them. I would highly recommend this concert to people who love Blues, R&B, Gospel and Rock.

Icehouse is a great venue (food, drink, ambiance, service, you name it) and Lissie did an amazing job. I have been waiting to see her perform live for a long time and she exceeded my expectations.

There's cover bands, then there's tribute bands. As a rock magazine journalist for multiple online and hardcopy publications, I've seen hundreds. From the "old skool" glam rockers making a comeback to tribute bands keeping the memories alive, hard rock runs core deep in my veins. I'd be happy to "support" a local cover band, but believe me when I say, Guns 4 Roses is no cover band. These guys have helped put tribute bands as a rising star again with dedication and hard work. They've covered the sounds and talent of the original Guns'N'Roses of the 1980's with costuming based on the live footage performances. There's always a flair of excitement, too. If you were like me "back then," Axl and Slash were making good girls sneak out and the wild girls wear their sneaky jeans! Whatever you decide to wear, make sure you don't miss it! (And, guys, you'll really get into the hardcore shredding solos and how you "Used to Love Her!") ROCK ON!

We enjoyed the show however the lady at the ticket booth told us to be there at 615 then you would not let us sit till 700 people who had handicaps had to go back to the car they could not stand. Then you sent us to the restaurant for cobbler and ice cream out in the cold and it was closed. Not very good to tell your friends.

At this concert, one of my many dreams came true. I got to see my idol, my favorite artist preform, right in front of me!!!! But enough about me. Julians shows are absolutely spectacular if words could even describe how errific this man is...at life! The venue was great, and the crowd amazing, it was a full house. His voice sounded as amazin as ever, and he was just great as i can seem t stop mentioning. Go see him the first chance you get, ive seen him twice, but this show was by far the best. After, the show came to its end, which was very sad. I could listen to him play for days if it was possible. I waited out in the pouring rain, and I got to meet him. He spoke to me for a long as he could, and was glad to talk and take photos and sign autographs for the few people who love him just as much as i do. He was so respetful and nice at all times, and when he had to go i dont think i ever heard someone say sory so many times. He signed so many autographs, and multipl ones. He gave each of us personal attention, and carried out conversations as best he could. Julian is a MUST see, and if yo get the chance..GO! do not question it, GO! GO GO GO!!!!!

Vieux is just an amazing musician. His talent knows no bounds. Run don'twalk to go see him!

Everyone had so much fun on stage, it was infectious! Joyful and Jubilant, and the music is The Very Best!

The whole show was amazing, fun,very interactive! I skipped church to go and I am so glad I did! We love creating memories for our parents and this was a winner. Both Moms are from the South. They left nothing on their plates. The food and fellowship was superior. One note....the AC was kicking. I should have brought the fur!

These guys can really work a crowd! They've still got it after all these years!
