This was an amazing concert with one exception, The Fillmore's sound system is garbage. Jack's Mannequin put on a great performance. This was my first time seeing them. Guster directly followed them, with just enough time in between to buy an overpriced $9 beer. Guster played a good mix of new stuff and a few goodies off ganging up on the sun. Generally i wouldnt recommend any concert out of the Fillmore. Take the time out, travel to Virginia and check out the Norva

Jack's Mannequin put on a great live show. Lots of energy and really enjoyed their interaction with the audience, it made the show feel personal. Guster was also great live, probably better than on their albums. The venue was neat and clean, the staff was very friendly.

I have seen Jack's Mannequin before in concert, and was blown away then; they did not cease to amaze again, and I left this concert in awe. Andrew, the lead singer, is the most amazing performer live you will ever see--energetic, committed, and ridiculously talented. Guster is also an amazing show live. So worth it to see them in concert, and I can't wait until next time.

Both of the bands rocked. I am a huge Jack's Mannequin fan, and Guster absolutely blew me away with their talent. Guster is a spectacle live, that's for sure. I wasn't a big fan of the way the venue was set up (the only reason this doesn't get a 5). I like The Lawn at White River better when it is completely General Admission.

I have seen Guster 4 times and each time I leave totally amazed at their performance. They truly are entertainers. This is a concert for the whole family. My only complaint is that they don't play more than once a year in the Indiana area. Jack's Mannequin was good but I had some trouble understanding some of the words to his songs. Unsure if it was the sound system or him. Didn't have this problem with Guster. Never had heard of Lady Danville but all of us really enjoyed them. I would like to hear some more of their stuff.

This was my 6th time seeing Jack's Mannequin and they rocked it like usual! They played a good variety of songs off all albums, including some new music. The energy that Jack's projects far exceeds any other band that I've ever seen. I cannot wait until they come to Indy again! Guster was great too - loved the encore with Andrew at the end!

The show was phenomenal. Lady Danville had a great sound and played a nice MGMT cover. Jack's Mannequin was amazing as always. And Guster blew me away. The best part was when Andrew came out to sing with Guster.

This concert was honestly one of the best experiences of my life. I am head over heels in love with anything that Andrew McMahon creates, so of course I would go to see this show for Jack's Mannequin. They were INCREDIBLE. Andrew puts so much passion into his performance, the drummer (Jay) loves what he does, the guitarist (Bobby) is a freaking boss, and the bassist (Mike) has so much swag it makes me want to cry. Guster was incredible as well - they were all so comfortable up there, doing what they love to do. That vibe was amazing. Lady Danville was the opening band, and I'd never heard them before. But they are seriously incredible, and they're gonna make it big. In short, this concert was fantastic and I'm giving it 5 stars because Andrew McMahon smiled at me.

Jack's Mannequin & the opening band were fine, but Guster puts on one awesome show! Each time I see them it gets better. This time was no exception. From a song about buying furniture, to playing harmonica with a disco ball hat on, the show was unforgettable. If you haven't seen Guster, you must!

The weather was perfect. Lady Danville was good; had not heard them previously but now a fan. Jack's Mannequin was fun, and I now have a new-found respect for them. Of course, Guster nailed it . . . again. They are so much fun. It was a fantastic show . . . song after song. So many awesome songs off of Easy Wonderful and the guys just played and played. This was my fourth Guster show in the last year and none of them have disappointed. With this being an outside show, it probably is my favorite of the four. I really hope to make it to the Columbus show. I am not sure that it is going to happen; however, I know it would definitely be worth the trip. And, they drove through a hurricane to keep their Indianapolis engagement . . . scary but very cool. Glad they made it safely.

It was a nice night. The sound was good. They let up stand in front of the stage. The chair rows in the reserved section were too close together - makes it hard tos stand.

I absolutely loved Guster, they never disappoint! my only objection is the time split between Guster and Jack's Mannequin. I prefer Guster to be the only head-liner and just didn't feel like I got my fill of Guster. Jack's Mannequin was good and entertaining, but Guster is king!

I would see them both again in a second! Guster and Jack both put on a great show. They both had their unique ways of performing and it made for one of my favorite concerts. This is the third time I saw Guster, and each time it is something new and great! Cannot wait to see them again.

Guster was terrific, but they started way too late for a Monday night concert. Jack's Mannequin played a very long set first considering they weren't headlining. I'm not sure if they were buying time for Guster, which I know had some trouble getting to Indy due to Irene, but they just went on and on and on. We had to leave before the end of Guster's set, and even that set felt rushed, as if they were squeezing in their whole concert as quickly as possible. They're so great live, but this wasn't their finest.

This was such an amazing show. I love Chastain Park and the band was amazing for an outdoor venue. Jack's Mannequin was great and Guster was fabulous. They played so well and made for an unforgettable night. The opening band, Lady Danville, was great and made the mood of the venue relaxing.

One of the best shows I've been to. The venue it was held it was quite small so I was able to be really close to the stage. The opener for the two bands Jack's Mannequin/Guster was Lady Danville which I had seen open for Jack's once before and they are as talented as the real show. All-in-all the show was amazing!!!

This was my third Jack's Mannequin concert and Andrew's talented piano-playing mixed with his absolute focus to put on a show for his fans is the best! The opening act Lady Danville was really good, too. I usually am not a fan of most openers, but they were good enough to convince me to buy a CD! :D

Guster put on a good show as usual... but in my opinion, this wasn't them at their best. This was my 7th time seeing Guster in concert, and they seemed tired, or off or something. They didn't talk much to the audience and they didn't seem like their usual selves! They still put on an awesome show, but I expected better seeing as they were back where it all began! I think they're usually better in smaller venues.

Awesome show by Jack's Mannequin and Guster! Very rarely does the opener spark my interest in their band as well, but Lady Danville did just that. With the dual headliners, the concert lasted for over 4 hours...I would have stayed longer if I could have. The inside of the LC Pavilion allowed us to get really close to the stage without having to muscle our way through. Guster is always amazing live and they definitely lived up to if not exceeded my previous experiences.

Jack's was amazing! Andrew was such a showmen. Jumping on the piano. That voice. Incredible! The sound in the LC was really good, and there wasn't a bad place to stand. My only complaints are that they closed off the VIP season ticket holder section and only 8 people were in it. They should've opened it after a certain point. Standing and looking at chairs was annoying. Also, I didn't like all the kids under 18. They were taking up coveted rail space on the balcony and ignoring the show, playing on their cell phones. The opening act was eh. And we left before Guster, because it was hot and standing with people pushing up against you and pushing you into the railing was exhausting. The teenagers were the ones pushing us as well.

Are you kidding? I took my 16 year-old daughter and her friend, who are in love with Jack's Mannequin. I got to experience Lady Danville opening (awesome!) then Jack's M, then GUSTER! Phe-no-men-al! The girls left to go sit down. I stayed where I was and was taken in so much by that music! That energy! Those guys on stage are truly unforgettable. (Not once did my kid tell me to take it down a notch either--which makes it an even cooler experience. ) The 2+ hour drive home was easy buzzing from the night. Guster (et al.) did, in fact, rock the house!

This probably my favorite concert to have ever attended. I've seen both Guster and Jack's in concert before, and they were of course amazing. Together though, it was somethin else. They each played hour long sets, including a few songs done together at the end of each. They both interacted with the crowd a lot to get them going too, which I love. The crowd was great too! I was able to get front row via coming early, and there were very few people pushing at all, but we were all still energetic and singing along. Best possible combination.

Loved the opening act, Lady Danville. Jack's Mannequin sounded like a wall of noise, with the lead singer posturing ridiculously on the stage. Guster contrasted with nice, tight composition and a more natural stage presence. The volume increased with each successive act, from pleasantly loud to pain-inducing levels. Would not return to the event site without heavy duty earplugs.

Lady Danville's vocals were excellent - their harmonies were the part that really brought it home for me. They had a great folksy sound to them & had a great stage presence. Guster was decent - I don't know many of their songs, but the lights and sound were great. Not really my favorite band, but it was worth seeing. If you like their music - I'd recommend it. However, Jack's Mannequin is who we were there to see, for sure. And they were excellent. Andy McMahon is at the top of his game, and is literally the best artist of all time.

Admittedly, we went to see Jack's Mannequin.. but were willing to give Guster a shot until it became obvious that the fans of this band were so rude that I couldn't bear to stay. They talked the entire time JM was on and were unbelievably obnoxious. I don't know why bands who clearly don't have the same fan base are matched up for tours. I liked the opener Lady Danforth, but frankly was happy that JM was on first so I could leave after. I am not sure I would pay that much money again to do something like this. That being said, JM was flawless.

Guster was absolutely amazing to see live. Excellent musicians as they went from instrument to instrument (kudos to the great stage crew that keeps the instruments flowing so the music does not stop.) The opening act was also very good, Lady something. And Jack's Mannequin was fun to watch. Very high energy. A great show. I'd do it again! And the Filmore was a great venue to see a band like Guster.

This venue was absolutely perfect. One of my absolute favorite places for a concert by far. My seats were amazing and the staff at the event really did a good job. After buying my tickets, I looked at the seating chart and was a little bummed because it looked like the seats were a little far from the stage. However, when I got to the park, I was approx 40 feet from the stage. It was perfect.

What a great night for a concert at the Lawn at White River! After the opening act, Jack's Mannequin played a full set, followed by a complete set from Guster. I'm not familiar with Jack's Mannequin but they played a respectable show and their fans seemed to be into it. Guster, as usual, played an amazing show filled with genuinely great music along with a unique sense of humor. I was happy to hear some of their old songs sounding as good as new, as well as their new songs which take no time to fall in love with if you haven't heard already. I've been seeing them for 10+ years and they wow me by continuing to develop their style and avoid becoming stale. Can't wait to see them again!

Jack's Mannequin has been my favorite band for more than 6 years, and I bought these tickets to finally see them perform. It was so magnificent, I was in tears. Lady Danville and Guster were bands that I did not know all too well, but I still found them to be wonderful performers. I met Andrew McMahon after the show, and I can honestly say, it was the best concert of my life.

Opening band Lady Danville was refreshingly good. I'd never seen Jack's Mannequin before, but bought their cd bundle & T-shirt - they were that good. Guster never dissapoints and played all my favorite songs. Loved Ryan wearing the disco ball on his head for "This is how it feels to have a broken heart". They were just awesome.

We have seen Guster twice before with Jukebox the Ghost so they were no suprise and always put on a good show. But Jack's Mannequin was so good. The amazing thing is that they sound as good or better live than they do on their recordings. The only problem is that they should have played longer and come out for an encore. Andrew if you read this you should come out at least one time for an encore.

If I had to sum the concert up in 1 word it would be PHENOMINAL! I have seen Guster twice before and they were great. This was my first time seeing Jack's Mannequin (have previously seen Something Corporate), and they did an awesome job as well. The encore was especially sweet when Andrew from Jack's Mannequin came out and performed several songs with Guster. Couldn't have asked for a better show!

I've been listening to Jack's Mannequin since 2006, but had seen Andrew McMahon with Something Corporate in the same Ybor City venue in 2003. He rocked then, and he didn't disappoint either as Jack's Mannequin. Played all the hits, some great new stuff from the upcoming third album, plus, never had heard of Guster, but they were a pleasant surprise and fun to watch, too.

Guster was awesome and fluid as usual. Was my 6th show and never get tired of them. I wish Guster had performed before Jack's Mannequin. Then I wouldn't have had to have felt tortured and could have left early. Didn't know anything about Jack's Mannequin going in. They would start off with a really nice melodic intro and break into I don't know what. Nothing gelled - I just didn't get it and I love all music. Lady Danville - never heard of either - could definitely see the Guster influence yet they had their own thing going. Really enjoyable!

Both bands put lots of energy into their shows and exhibited beautiful song writing and delightful musical creativity. The transition time between bands was short. Kudos to the crews. The fans of each band sang along with every song. Ryan Miller of Guster sang a bit with Jack's Mannequin at the end of their set, and Andrew McMahon of Jack's Mannequin returned the favor at the end of Guster's set. Andrew looked healthy after a serious bout with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Both bands had great fun performing, which was a pleasure to see. Revolution Live seems to have become a non-smoking venue, which I applaud.

Got tix to this concert mainly for JM and was not disappointed! Andrew McMahon is such a talented artist and showman. They played a good mix of songs from all previous albums and showcased a couple from their new one. There was no down time in between songs.....pure energy all the way through. Would definitely go see JM again. As it was, I travelled from PA to SC for this concert (and the beach!) so I didn't go see these guys on a whim. Guster was good......there were more people there for JM and then left once Guster came on stage. Guster's harmonies were as good as ever along with talented instrumentals. House of Blues in Myrtle Beach was a great venue....small enough that everyone had a good view of the stage and performers.

My girlfriend and I just saw Guster for the second time this year. Honestly, she's knows their music much better than I do because she's much closer to their target demographic than I am. (She's 33; I'm 47.) However, I have been so impressed by both of their shows. While I don't mind their music and now have a few songs I genuinely like, hearing them live takes their tunes to a whole different level. How many bands have a banjo, bongos, and a ukulele in the same song? Their ability to move from one instrument to another--again and again and again--is truly impressive. And they seem to be having a blast the whole time. I would gladly see Guster again. I was also really impressed by both Ra Ra Riot and Jack's Mannequin, who opened for Guster. My only disappointment was when we got to our seats and realized that there was a small aisle between us because there was a pole in front of us. Fortunately, I was able to move next to her after a few songs.

Before the concert started, when you were walking in there was a table where you could upgrade your lawn ticket to an actual seat. This was pretty cool of them to do, but I also think it was because the concert didn't sell out. But still very cool of them to do! First to play was Ra Ra Riot. At most venues the opener band is well to be frank shitty. You can never really hear the band. Unable to make out there lyrics and just aren't enjoyable. But for CMAC, Ra Ra Riot was AWESOME. My friend and I loved them. You were able to hear them and we had a lot of fun. It was an interesting vibe of classical and chill alternative. I highly suggest picking up there album! Second up was Jack's Mannequin, really the reason why I came to this concert. Jack Mannequin was AMAZING, this would be my 3rd time seeing them in concert. I enjoyed this venue a lot because no matter where you were sitting you could enjoy the show. The sound was great and everything just came together well. Jack's Mannequin played for a little over an hour which was AWESOME. Even played a brand new song, only performed twice, which was really a treat! I loved how the last song was played with Ryan for Guster. It's cool to see the 2 bands get a long and are friends. It really just felt like your best friends were just jamming in your living room. That is the best vibe you can give off to your fans, in my opinion. Before the Last band, Guster. There was a HUGE storm coming in. Most people were under the shell, but there of course were people with lawn seats. The manager at the CMAC came and spoke to all of us about the storm. He invited everyone on the lawn to come in underneath the shell for safety precautions. I thought that this was really nice of them. I respect all the staff at CMAC. I have never been to a concert where this has happened before. Lastly was Guster. I am a Guster fan but wouldn't say "die-hard". Guster awesome. Really great. I love how chill and down to earth they are. They played a great set. My friend who I was with never really heard of Guster, after the concert she borrowed all my Guster cds, which was cool. I would definitely want to see Guster again in concert. And there last songs included Andrew (lead singer and pianist) of Jack's Mannequin. I thought that was really cool of them!! Great way to end the show.

Andy looked so healthy, it was an awesome night for me. Two of my favorites together. The weather was perfect, the venue was great and the preformances were everything I hoped for and more. The thing I love most about both bands is you leave knowing they are doing exactly want they love to do. Great show guys, thanks!

If you like Jack's music and have a chance to see them live, you should. It is full of energy and full of amazing music. Andy McMahon delivers really good vocals while being fun and engaging. The rest of the band played great and delivered tweaked versions of songs to make a better concert experience (with some really amazing breakdowns). I was also really impressed with Ra Ra Riot. I described it at the time as a buffet for my ears :P Really good use of a wide range of instruments. I unfortunately had to leave before Guster went on :(

Guster and Jack's Mannequin was an excellent show. Jack's Mannequin gave an energetic performance; although they may have taken up some of Guster's stage time. Guster seemed a bit flustered; I don't think they had enough time for set up and sound checks. But, they still delivered a great show. Buckets of rain and bright lightening didn't derail the show and the CMAC managers brought everyone sitting on the lawn under the shelter of the shell.

Jack's Mannequin is one of the few artists/bands i have seen who sound just as good live as they do on their album. It is awesome and refreshing. Great show. Also, we saw them at CMAC in Canandaigua, NY adn there was a nasty storm that came through during the show. Someone who worked at the venue (possibly the general manager) got on stage and reported that the storn was coming then invited everyone with lawn seats to come under the shell for free to continue to enjoy the concert without getting poured/hailed on or blown away! It was a great show at a great venue.

Ra Ra Riot were brilliant - shame they were cramped up in front of Jack's Mannequin's gear. Would love to see them headline, or at least have a set up that allows them to use the most of their energy. Jack's Mannequin bored the tits off me. The singer did work the crowd well, but the music is tedious. Should never have co-headlined with Guster, which is a far superior act in every way. Guster, as usual, were excellent. May have been spoiled from my last gig, which was the Lost and Gone Forever anniversary tour, and saw them play a 2.5 hour set. This time it felt rushed, and Ryan made several mentions of having to keep on time. Should also have had a dedicated mosh pit. Bottom line, if they'd have gotten rid of Jack's Mannequin, both Ra Ra Riot and Guster could have done a proper show, and I wouldn't have had to hang around for 2 hours in the middle. At least the thunderstorm held off until Guster were on stage (that would have sucked balls), and thumbs up to management for bringing in the lawn tickets under the roof, although it wasn't anywhere near full. Could have been a lot worse like in Indiana - I would hope CMAC is constructed to withstand wind loads like that.

This concert was fantastic!! They put on an amazing show full of a ton of energy. To make the concert even better, they played with Guster and Ra Ra Riot. I have never heard of Ra Ra Riot before, but they were good. Three good bands in one concert, which happens to be super close to home? Couldn't ask for anything better!

Guster put on an awesome show all around....not only with the music but with the way they connected with the audience and tried to get everyone into it. Really enjoyed Jack's Mannequin as well and Ra Ra Riot was an amazing opener!

Concert at CMAC in Canandaigua, NY was truly amazing. The bands were excellent, the venue was great, and the overall atmosphere was engaging and entertaining. The massive thunder and lightning storm that occurred during the show only added to the excitement and drama. Luckily everyone was safe under the roof, but the open-air sides of the stadium allowed the audience to enjoy the light show inside and outside.

Guster was incredible. They make me the happiest man on earth. RaRaRiot was a solid opening band with decent music and hipster appeal. Jack's Mannequin, however, was not my thing. Their music is pretty mediocre. I guess Guster is touring with them to target a new audience of listeners. But Guster played a great set, very long, with lots of encores to make up for the long wait.

I've seen Guster half a dozen times now, and they never fail to please! Always an entertaining show, filled with great music, a great performance and lots of whimsy, jokes and fun. Jack's Mannequin was a great addition this time around, and I really enjoyed Ra Ra Riot, I downloaded their album this weekend and recommend it!!

I've seen Guster a few times and this show was no disappointment. Perhaps even more fun given the severe weather. When you looked around everyone was dancing, smiling, having a good time, myself included. Jack's Mannequin was a fun match up, too.

It was 8th time seeing Guster (3x this year - other two shows were in Pittsburgh and AC with Dave Mattews)and as usual I was not disappointed! They always put on a fantistic show. They are sooooooooo much fun to see live - Brian is amazing on the drums and Adam and Ryan have awesome voices. I finally took my daughters to a show and now they are hooked! Already looking forward to them

This was the fifth time I saw Guster live, and not only am I continued to be blown away -- I think I leave the shows liking them more than I already did. Honestly I wasn't really looking forward to Jack's Mannequin's half of the show, but was pleasantly surprised by their artistic quality as well. Overall, this was an incredible show (Ra Ra Riot was an excellent opener as well, but I believe they are no longer on the ticket). Definitely recommended.

Both Jack's Mannequin and Guster were incredible. Whoever's idea it was to have them perform together is brilliant!

Awesome show! I loved that Guster and Jack's Mannequin invited each other onstage to play together during each of their sets- very cool! Even though it was storming outside it didn't stop the show; overall had an amazing time!

Guster and Jacks Mannequinn are a power team of awesome music and stage presence! A beautiful night for an outdoor concert, both bands were energetic, amusing, and immensely talented. Both also expressed gratitude to the fans and had a genuinely good time which was felt by the crowd.

Andrew and the band were so full of energy and played all the songs we were hoping to hear!!! Came home Sunday and preorder the new CD coming out in October....we are hoping they will be back next year and playing all their new hits!!!
