Grouplove

Oh my gosh, where should I start?! Since Grouplove is my favorite band of all time, I got to the venue at around 10:30 in the morning and I was the second one in line(doors open @7:00). The area was pretty nice so my friend and I got donuts in the morning (it was right around the corner), and we got pizza for lunch and dinner (down the street). Okay so about the actual concert, we go in and the boys and girls got separated which was dumb, but after that we got into four lines. So we go in, and the only complaint I have is that the merch table wasn't ready when everyone got in. Anyways, both opening acts were great, but Grouplove, Grouplove was absolutely pheonominal!!! The concert starts, and I start crying because I made it to second row middle and every one starts dancing. Later that night, I had a note for the band and Hannah took it which was pretty dope. It got even better when Hannah and Christian crowd surfed, and the light work throughout the show was super cool. Also, when Ryan threw his drumstick, I ALMOST caught it! Overall, with everything included, the show was pretty dope!

The energy that Grouplove brings is crazy. They had everyone on their feet. Besides giving a awesome performance the band members were very nice. Overall I would highly recommend you go to their show. You will not regret it!

Best show I've been in a while. They sound amazing live!

Grouplove is AMAZING live!!! Go see them immediately!

So much energy in this group! I can tell they are gonna go places and if they ever come back I will go see them again! Family of the Year was alright but nothing to get too crazy about when compared to Grouplove. Loved the show!

it was an unforgetable show. The el Rey is beautiful and spacious. The stage is wide open so anyone can see. Both bands were great and grouplove's performance was uncanny! you MIST see them. Not to mention they are the nicest people ever. Perfect evening

I already knew I loved their music but seeing them live made me know they're going to be a huge band. They put on an incredible show and not only should people be buying their album, "Never Trust A Happy Song" but the next time you get a chance to see them in person, DO IT! An unbelievably fun night.

I went to the Grouplove concert and it was amazing. they had so much energy while they were on stage. After the show they were kind enough to meet me and a group of my friends, We got to take pictures and got autographs, Over all i had a wonderful time from beginning to end

Yay for Grouplove! It was amazing! Awesome venue too!

Grouplove is an "indie" band that is going to transcend this label make to the big time, a la Phoenix. The show was amazing. Great songs, great performance, great vibe. Every one in the band holds themself like a rockstar.

The openers Belle Brigade played well, and grouplove exceeded expectations. I had a great time.

Saw them during the day at 99X's Live X, then at the Masquerade later that night. Great, fun band.

The day my wife & I saw the show was the bands album release. The band rocked the Bowery Ballrooms small stage with an energetic set. Although the band is made up of an eclectic group of people they played a tight set. The only disappointment I had was the disappointing assortment of t-shirts to choose from. I don't understand why such an artsy band didn't come up with a better selection. I wish they would have put the artwork they have on their drums or the large poster of the girl on a tee.

The show grouplove put on was great, I would recommend them to anyone, but the venue seemed to just be an excuse for tons of people to get really drunk and annoying. I prefer my music to be about my music, not getting fucked up and causing problems with those around me.

Grouplove sounds incredible live! This show should not be missed!

Grouplove was awesome!! I saw them at Lollapalooza but this was great! Hope they come back soon.

the band was energetic and rocking right from the start. the audience fed off the band's positive vibes and was really jumping. Grouplove was tight.

High energy, great songs and an awesome live act. Most importantly they were having fun while doing it, which spilled over into the crowd. Anybody into the singles must catch this act.

Grouplove put on an amazing performance. Their energy was infective and their sound was perfection. Hope to see them again soon!

Don't sleep on these guys. Never Trust A Happy Song is as close to perfect as it comes. I expect big things from this band!

The Grouplove/Young Man show at Bowery Ballroom was awesome. Grouplove came out with a ton of love and appreciation for being in NYC for their album release party night. They were loving the crowd and the crowd loved them back. They sounded great and the venue wasn't too crowded - everyone was dancing and smiling. Definitely would see them again wherever they go.

Fantastic show. Really creative band puts on a great show with great music!

grouplove has a lot of energy. this was the first time i'd seen them and i enjoyed every minute of it. i was a little peeved starting out because the tickets said doors at 7:00 - i showed up for the show at 8:00, only to find out grouplove wasn't going on until 10. not a terrible thing, but for a work night with a drive from long island, it put my night a little later than planned. but the show was well worth the wait. the energy the band put out made the 2 hour wait well worth it. they sounded better in person than i'd expected, and they ended the show with colours, which was awesome. i would definitely go to see them again!

Great show. I expect big things from this band! Check out the new CD

this band is destined for greatness... one of the best shows I've seen all year... everyone go buy this album immediately!!

The venue was having tech problems but the bands were still awesome. It's was a small event not very many people but that made it even better, really.

Fantastic energy, great setlist, interacted with the crowd, and their openers rocked too!

Great energy and keeps you moving! A must see band!

The performers were into it! The crowd was into it! One of the best concerts I've ever seen.

Great, high-energy set that blew the crowd away!!!

Intimate venue, incredible performance from Grouplove themselves, and awesome selection for the opening bands!

I'm into a lot of different music and go to a lot of shows. This was hands down the most fun I have ever had at a concert. I never doubted their song execution would be great, but it was perfect. The creativity and eccentricity written into their songs straight-up exploded all over the venue. So much audio and visual stimulus I forgot which was which. I wish today (7 months later) that I was still there.

I didn't get to see Typhoon, the first opening act, but GroupLove and Portugal. The Man were both equally unforgettable. The crowd was just as excited to see GroupLove as they were to see Portugal. Both bands played several songs that weren't theirs by amazing artists like the Beatles, Pink Floyd, Beyonce and the Who among others... I loved this because they would start off playing one of their own songs and somehow managed to turn it into something completely different which gave an awesome fluctuation of energy throughout the show. Also, how many of us are gonna get to hear "Tennage Wasteland" live ever again? Simply incredible. I will always be a fan of both bands and forever attend any show they play near my current location. KEEP IT UP GUYS! YOUR FANS <3 YOU!!!!

Awesome venue !!! The bands were amazing the location deff made the show!

Man, oh man! this show was the tits. I couldnt believe how amazing this was. the best concert docket of all time, hands down. grouplove opening for portugal. the man? you've gotta be kidding me. unreal, so many fine young ladies there as well. i would go to this show every single day of the year if that was possible.

They were amazing! Typhoon, the opening band, was great. GROUPLOVE was on next, and they were completely amazing. Their stage presence was awesome, and they were great performers. Definitely a great performance and great set. Portugal. The Man played afterwards, and everything was above and beyond. The AV was great, their sound was amazing, and their concert was so full of love. All three bands played their hearts out, and they were so emotional. It was truly an amazing experience.

This was the best concert I have ever been to. Portugal the man is my favorite band in the world and they absolutely exceeded my expectation. Grouplove was also amazing. The crowd was so hype and sang along to every single song and the venue was beautiful. I will never forget this concert!

Grouplove and Portugal were awesome! The venue was great! It helped that it was gorgeous out. Good times had by all! My only issue was the lack of beer selections. I'm not a fan of hoppy beers, but that's basicly all they offered :/

The excitement and anticipation throughout my day. My anxiety building up by the second was all worth it to watch not one or two but for all three bands. Standing outside in central park is like no other concert arena. This is the place I always watch my favorite bands. This concert has surpassed words for a description. You had to be there.

Grouplove and Portugal. The Man put on an absolutely amazing show!!! The light show was intense and trippy as well! Absolutely enthralling live! The only aspect that bothered me is how short Portugals set was... but it didnt take away from how amazing they were as a whole!

greatest band to see live, even if you don't know any of their music. great energy, great vibes. Love them very much

Grouplove was okay but once again Portugal. The Man amazes. This is the third time i've seen them and it was by far the best

Overall, because this event took place in Central Park towards the end of the summer and capped off the Honda Civic Tour, I give this 4 stars. I was thrown off by Grouplove opening for Portugal as early as like 6:30pm, when I expected them to go on stage at like 8-8:30pm. Grouplove's stage presence was a lot better than when I saw them in March at Terminal 5. Only things that felt weird were: (1) Christian's hair cut made things feel off, and (2) Sean Gadd suggested via Tweets that he'd be coming back and he didn't so we missed out on some great songs that he plays bass for and brings vocals to. Great highlights include these covers: - Grouplove yet again covered "Drunk In Love" by Beyonce - Portugal covered "Another Brick In The Wall" by Pink Floyd - Portugal covered "The Nightman Cometh" from "It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia" - Grouplove and Portugal ended the show with "Hey Jude" by The Beatles Portugal was talented but a few of the songs sounded very similar in melody. There was a point where I was hearing "Don't Look Back In Anger" by Oasis and then... the song turned into a cover of that very song! Their other songs sounded like "Fell In Love With A Girl" by The White Stripes, "Believe" by The Bravery, "Sea of Love" by Cat Power, etc. They're very talented and I hope their next album features more original sounds (even though that's tough these days - don't get me wrong, Grouplove echoes the sounds of so many different bands but they make mask it with their own sound).

Portugal. The Man was outstanding. One of the best shows I have been in a while.

First of all it was a beautiful night in New York. The weather was just right and the crowd was ready to rock and roll. Typhoon opened with a great set and it just kept getting better. Grouplove was spot on and their take on Baba o'rieiiy was outstanding. Portugal the man kept the show at a high note and the their closing with Hey Jude (featuring all the bands) was really sweet.

went to the show in central park it was absolutely remarkable. Went mainly to see grouplove. Of course they put on an amazing show , thy always bring so much energy. Have seen them a few times before and i think i could 100 times more. The real suprise for me was portugal the man came in sort of a fan left in love. The show was sick especially ghe lights. Definally a rockin tour. Sick venue as well.

Great time with great music and great people. Great time had by all!

The concert was good besides the fact that they were a bit behind schedule, which was a little annoying. It was raining that day so the more prompt they would have been the better the concert would have been.

I had not heard of most of the bands before they were announced in the show, so I listened to them weeks leading up to the show. Though the lead singer of Brick + Mortar was rude to the audience (telling them to "Shut the fuck up" after nearly every song so he could share a bit about himself), they rocked the show. Another favorite was Sir Sly and of course Grouplove. I think everyone in the audience was shocked by Grouplove's cover of Drunk in Love.

There were great opening bands and great upbeat music was played in between shows. Grouplove was absolutely fantastic. They are a great band live. There were not too many people at the concert which made it more enjoyable. It was a fast and easy check in process. I would definitely go to another concert.

I thought this was a great concert!! Grouplove was amazing and the other bands did a great job too. My other favorites were Sir Sly and Wild Cub. I am only giving it four stars because the wait in-between acts seemed a little long, but the DJ that was playing was awesome. I am so excited to go to more!!

The show was awesome. It was crowded, but it wasn't obnoxiously packed, so whatever number Festival Pier set as the limit is almost perfect. It might've rained just a little bit on our parade, but man what and amazing night.

104.5 still throws a good party even if you have to have a ticket now for their free Summer Block Party concerts. Hard to get tickets but glad I saw the last show of the year. Bands were good and crowd was great. GroupLove played with so much energy.

It was unreal. Even though it rained all day it was still an amazing event. My only comment is i hate going to concerts that high schoolers can go to...little brats

The beginning of the concert was kinda rough. I was kicked in the head and hit on by a lot of old drunk men. But the 1 hour when grouplove preformed was absolutely amazing. I jumped , danced, and sang more than ever. Must see band!! <3

This was one of the most fun concerts I've been to, the block parties never dissapoint. This one in particular was so much fun and so memorable! Crowd surfing, a bag of chips falling from the sky to hearing everyone kill it on stage. Grouplove, brick + mortar and sir sly stood out most tho and all three should be seen as often as you can! Can not wait for next summer for more block parties!!

I couldn't stop jumping. Such a show! Bummed that it was my last summer concert but I cant wait for the next time they in town.

Fantastic line up! Group love killed it! Brought my two daughters (8 & 3) for their first concert. It was unforgettable!

Once again radio 104.5 hosted a great concert event. As a fan of Vance Joy , it was great to see him again live. Also loved the opening duo Brick+ Mortar.

The venue was amazing. I have been wanting to see portugal the man for some time now and I'm so happy I was able to experience them along with grouplove. They both have such a uniqueness about them, I have seen both in the past and love them. The way they closed the show was unforgettable, that show was pure magic!

Just to get it out of the way, my group of friends and I were there to see Portugal. The man. We had no interest in Grouplove so in all honesty, we didn't really pay attention to their set all that much. Portugal delivered an outstanding set, per usual. They played the best songs off of their latest album, plus a lot fan favorites from their past albums. The Greek was definitely a great venue for them, a good crowd but not so big where the small show vibe gets lost. I recommend that everyone check out this band at one point, they're fantastic live and put on one of the best shows I've ever seen. 4 out of 5 stars ONLY because they didn't close the night. Next time have Grouplove open.

Great concert. Great talented artists giving us amazing music. Loved the opening bands. They are just as important as they set the mood, ambience and build up that momentum to what's about to happen.

GroupLove doesn't disappoint!!! The most energetic and amazing show I've been to in awhile!

One of the best live performances I have ever seen at Terminal 5. They are fun, energetic and made wanting to go back the very the next day.

Great show, loved MS MR the lead singers voice is captivating. Seen Grouplove 5 times and they have grown incredibly, the voices, the theatrics, the energy, everything screams arena shows right around the bend.

This is a must see show in your lifetime, they love you for coming and you can feel their energy everywhere. One of the happiest concerts I've been to. I left making friends on the way out just talking about hoe amazing the experience was.

I've been to many concerts before and thought they were good but Grouplove took it to the top! They were high energy and simply amazing. This was simply put THE BEST CONCERT EVER. If they come to your city they are a must see. You will not regret it. I can't wait to see them again. Is there a thing as getting a high from seeing a concert? It was the most fun I've ever had. Go see them or miss out.

This concert was beyond amazing!! I would recommend seeing grouplove.

It was my first time at The Norva and my first time seeing Grouplove and it was awesome! The venue was great and the band was even better! They were very entertaining and super fun!

Grouplove put on an AMAZING show at the masquerade. I had only listened to them a few times before going to the show, so every song that came on was some what a pleasant surprise. Great music to dance to, couldn't help dancing! It was so much fun! Definitely worth giving it a shot. Apart from all their energetic music, i loved when they played an acoustic song for us.. that just did it for me, I LOVE Grouplove now.

These folks are coming on strong with new lighting to go together with their unforgettable energy.

This was my first time seeing grouplove & I must say they did NOT disappoint. Every song was amazing & on point! We had such a blast. Can't wait to see them again!

With a packed house supporting their first album they didn't disappoint. They are the rare band that is awesome in a small venue that I can picture holding their own in a much bigger one. See them in the clubs before they're playing the arenas - you won't be sorry.

Show was outstanding. Better than expected. I wish them well, but I know that they don't need it. They will be very famous some time soon.....

I went to see Foster the People in Minneapolis at 7th St. Entry and Grouplove was an opening act. I would have left happy if they were the only band that performed and enjoyed them better than any that I have seen lately. They have great vocals, guitars (love their chord progressions and strumming patters), and percussion. I didn't want for them to leave and hope to see them in the future. I hope that they keep this style of music in the future.

It was an interesting concert. They came out with energy and the whole band seemed to have fun. The female singer engaged the crowd well. I had trouble catching the dancing wave as I normally do at concerts, but it was still a notable event.

Loved the venue. Favorite band was Grouplove. Looking forward to next year.

Overall the show was good but VIP experience was unfortunately ruined because of dinner the line was huge and then when it finally was a little shorter the food was gone.

Grouplove was excellent they put on a great show, the venue was awesome all of the staff were really chill.

...I would make every attempt humanly possible to see them at some point in your life. They are probably the most real people I have ever seen perform live. Not once do you feel like you're alone, like you're just an audience to performers on stage, or that you're having a dull time. Grouplove knows how to really embody their name and create a sense of love and belonging with every individual in the crowd. Not to mention they sound absolutely fantastic live. The venue itself wasn't exactly my favorite in terms of accessibility and parking, but the interior was quite nice and had a decent capacity. But I will always tell you that Grouplove is worth every single second of effort and every single penny. I will be seeing them again.

They had so much energy it was electric. You really felt something in every song and lyric they sang. The emotion was there which made it so unforgettable. I would see them every time they come to town. No doubt. There's no way I'm missing s show like that in the future. I'm hooked and I can't wait to see them again and get that feeling again.

Concert was fantastic, Grouplove ALWAYS puts on a great show. Venue was good too.

This was my first time seeing Grouplove live after years of following their music and I have no complaints. They put on an extremely positive and well put together show, their fans are wonderful people, and the energy was incredible. Going to see Grouplove melted away layers of stress and anxiety and spread positive vibes to all.

The show was incredible! They are fabulous in concert!

Great show!! I would see them again, they sound amazing live.

Walking in there I had no idea how amazing that night would be. The energy was beyond incredible and everyone was like a family that night. The music was amazing and the performance blew me away. Next time they're even close to me, you'll bet I'll be there.

All the bands put on great shows- hope to see them all again sometime!

Very organized very fun show. I liked that there was plenty of personal space. The times in between artists went pretty fast. I hope to go back to another one next year.

As if the concept of a free series of summer concerts wasn't amazing enough, 104.5 secured a stellar lineup that had the crowd rocking from start to finish. While I missed all of Brick + Mortar, and some of Wolfgang's sets, Sir Sly and Vance Joy came to party with this unforgettable Philly crowd, and Grouplove brought us all to our peak with a jamming performance. I was jumping up and down the whole time, completely unable to stand still. I loved it, and am so happy that I scored some last minute tickets. Thank you 104.5!!

Show was awesome. Sound quality incredible. Line up Amazing, and even the weather cooperated. I have to say, at Festival Pier, there's no bad "seat" in the whole place!

Your event and your organization worked with us prior to the vent to accommodate a large group in the VIP area and the service and overall experience were absolutely OUTSTANDING in every aspect. Keep up the good work!

Second time seeing Grouplove (first at Firefly). Energetic, fun show. Absolutely love music. Bring them back to Philly as soon as possible and I will not miss it.

Third time seeing them this year, such a good show

Fabulous show, great sound. I love that I could FEEL the bass in the music. Keeps me dancing!

The main reason I was disappointed by the concert was because the performance times that were provided were inaccurate. I went expecting to see Grouplove perform for over an hour and half instead they only performed for about an hour. The concert ended a half hour earlier than what was stated in the provided schedule and then the night got worse since it took over an hour to get back to my vehicle via the shuttle service. Taking into account all the expenses (tickets, parking, concession spending, etc.) and the time spent getting there and leaving, this event was not worth my time and money. I would not recommended this to a friend.

We saw Portugal. The Man and Grouplove play at The Greek-- Portugal. The Man was awesome, Grouplove was pretty good, and the venue was amazing! Seriously, if there's an artist you're even somewhat interested in, and they're playing at The Greek, see the show. It's a beautiful venue-- basically a smaller version of the Hollywood Bowl-- and there's not a bad seat in the house!

Portugal. The man was great and GROUPLOVE just stole the stage with all their enthusiasm and energy they really know how to put on a show!

Tokyo Police Club is amazing live. All the band members are incredible. Portugal, The Man's artistic lighting is breathtaking. The smoke mixed in with the cool cloud light was mindblowingly beautiful. Their music is also amazing and they are such good artists and performers. But Grouplove's performance was life changing. I don't think I'm exaggerating. The energy in their performance is the best. Wow. They are amazing and I love them so much more now after watching them live. Watching them live is actually living life to the fullest.

Grouplove is so incredible. Their energy and love for performing makes the show and who they are. You can just tell by their smiles and energy. All their songs are great and even if you don't know all the songs it's a great show. Portugal the man was also great but songs sound very similar. Came for grouplove but Portugal the man was still amazing.

Brilliantly executed show! The sound was perfect and light show dazzling.
