Some Hear Explosions

Opiate is an amazing thing and an amazing experience for anyone who likes or loves Tool. They play all the best Tool songs and play them amazingly well. They don't scrimp either...an 18 song set list (and that's 3/4 of what they can play)....2 hours-plus. The videos always enhance the experience as well. Here's why they are better than Tool: 10 Bucks!; an awesome and long set list; and you don't have to deal with Maynard hanging out in the shadows. Bottom line...these guys love Tool, love playing Tool, and you will love them for it. I've seen them six times...there will be many more as long as they're around.

Besides the very first opening band... everyone else was AMAZING!!! Everything Goes Cold was a complete surprise. Faderhead was fantastic despite some technical difficulties in the beginning. Aesthetic Perfection blew the place to shreds. Amazing performance and highly recommended. Industrial rock at it's best. All the performers had so much energy! I only wished that the show could have lasted longer =)

Everyone needs to go check out Before You Exit in concert. Amazing and talented young men! You will not be disappointed. Plenty of tour dates and areas left to be able to attend.

awesome concert. intimate feel. Not much audience interaction/storytelling, etc. 15 minute intermission. Esperanza is a phenomenal and emotional performer.

Please continue to host more in-language shows. Thx.

All three bands were outstanding and each encompassed a different genre of music! Really loved Consider the Source and their opening band, Armcannon though. Both bands displayed incredible talent and exuded camaraderie and fun. It was a thoroughly enjoyable evening!

It was a Sunday evening and I was doubting why I'd bought the tickets 4 months earlier - due to the darkness descending earlier now and the uncertainty of what the experience would be. It was a great experience that has been carrying me through my work week. The opening band Loamlands were excellent. Then Natalie Prass and her band came on and totally surprised me. She and her band are great live, even though at times I felt the musicians overtook her voice. Love, loved their version of Sound of Silence. Looking forward to buying her newest musical gift.

Family of the Year were amazing as always.. They sang songs from their 2nd album, "Loma Vista" and from their new album. They sounded amazing, were very energetic and interacted with the crowd a lot.

The show was excellent! Cady Groves also performed and she is excellent. She is a down to earth person and is really interested in talking with her audience. The Downtown Fiction put on a great show. The suit that Cameron Leahy wears is hideous though.

more than the event, that was great, Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, are one of the best band I ahem ever sean on stage.
