They rocked the joint - but that was certainly expected. The Variety Playhouse is one of the very best places to see a fantastic band such as The Bodeans, I'm sure that is why they chose to play there. Looking forward to the next time...

The BoDeans put on a great show! I was surprised the casino let them play an hour a half. They also came back for an enore playing Fadeaway! A real treat for any BoDeans fan. The other performers were okay, but they were just solo acts, no backup bands. Meiko was good and a great voice. She was actually quite humorous between songs explaining the inspiration for them.

Wow - where do I start? That was a great show! I knew they were good live due to the Joe Dirt Car CD and I have been a fan for close to 20 years but had never had the opportunity to see them live! The sound at the Voodoo Lounge was spot-on and they sounded as incredible as ever. Besides being excellent songwriters, their guitar skills shined through as well without being over the top. Everyone was in top form! I would love to go see them again!

My wife and I got our first Bodeans album right after we were married 20 years ago. We were so happy to hear the songs sung with the same energy and sound so much like they did back then. The venue was also great-accoustics and mixing gave a great sound without noise or over the top volume. All in all, a great experience.

I've wanted to see the Bodeans for so long but they were never playing anywhere close to me. I decided I would just come to them and made the trip to Kansas City. They absolutely rocked!! Their voices are amazing and the harmony was perfect! I loved the entire show but, for me, NAKED made the day!

The BoDeans put on a great show. They were fantastic. I have seen the BoDeans more than 100 times over the last 22 years and have never been disappointed with the show. It is always great! The people of Minnesota need to learn, however, that you cannot sit during a BoDeans concert. You need to get up and rock!!!!!

I am an avid Bodeans fan, but seeing them at the Zoo Ampitheatre was a treat! They really rocked the place. They played a lot of their newer songs to let the fans get an idea of where they are heading, but never forgot their roots and played all of the oldies!

Not only was the evening a perfect one in late June, but the Zoo Amphitheater is a fabulous venue. The BoDeans rocked! I'd been dying to see them live for years, and couldn't have been happier.

I loved this venue because it felt like a private concert. The Bodeans also seemed to have liked the amphitheatrre as they really rocked!!! They played with enthusiasum and just looked like they were having fun. Great song selections as well and they had the crowd up on their feet and moving!!! Bring them back.

I love the zoo! The sound system, the outdoor setting, the band! The BoDeans have so much energy and are so excited to be here. That makes the show. The band before - the Rocket Project - was truly exciting. They were so excited to be playing and sounded great. I hope to see more of them.

The show was great! It was a gorgeous night for an outdoor concert and the warm up band, Rocket Club, got everyone pumped and ready to rock for the Bodeans. We got right down in the front and rocked all night with them!

Everything we all love about the Bodeans. Jammin tunes, and terrific harmonies. Kurt and Sammy seem to bring it today, just like they always have. I know they must be extremely tired of playing their songs after all these years, but I tell you, you would never know it. They still have the energy and vocals are as tight as ever. Awesome show! Will go to see them play anytime they are near.

My husband introduced me to The Bodeans in 2004 as he had been a fan since they formed in 1983/84. We saw them in Nashville that year and then again at The Birchmere in 2013, minus the original Sam. However, we went to their performance at The Birchmere again this past weekend with their "new" Sam and they were better than ever! We sat right in front of center stage and the whole place sang along to all the great songs and finally everyone was on their feet. Definitely glad we didn't miss them! Really wanted them to play one of my favorites, Naked, but it wasn't on the list...

This was one of several BoDeans shows I've see, and it was merely middle of the road. It had an uninspired set list, although it contained all of the crowd favorites. A new tune or two was also tossed in. Kurt is not the most dynamic guy to begin with, and he (and the band) started very slowly, but warmed up well after three or four songs. My biggest disappointment of the night was that Kenny Arnoff was not present. The replacement drummer was good, but certainly no Kenny. All in all, a fun night with a solid performance. I just don't see the band ever being the same without Sam.

I love this band and was so happy to get to see them at Talking Stick's Showroom. Next time they return I will do it all over again. Disappointed they didn't come out afterwards and visit with their fans and sign autographs.

The band was great. Really tight. Although this configuration of the band hasn't been together that long, you would think they had been together for years. They definitely "clicked." My only issue was the sound quality. The bass seemed way too heavy and it was hard to hear the words to the songs. I was talking to others in the bathroom after the concert and they were complaining about the same thing. Not the band's fault. The audio engineers need to work on this.

I've been a big fan of the BoDeans since the 80's so I was looking forward to seeing them and listening to their music. It brought back lots of great memories. The only complaint I have is the booth seating at this venue. Instead of being raised up a little to see over the floor crowd, it was at the same level as the last row of chairs on the floor and it was difficult to see over them.

The Bodeans are very personable to their fans as they perform. They are easy to watch. The drummer is outstanding. He plays non-stop for over an hour without missing a beat. Our seating was in the first row of booths in the theater and had excellent view of the band. Unfortunately, the sound system was so loud our entire booth seating was vibrating through out the 2hr. show. Not great and did distract from enjoying their great music!

The Bodeans put on an absolutely amazing show on Tuesday night! If I didn't have plans for New Years Eve, I would've seen their show the next night as well. The singer's voice is as great as it ever was (also appreciated his stories as lead-ins to each of the songs) and the drummer was kick ass! The band really knows how to engage the audience and I never had so much fun at a show!!! I hope they play again in the future. The intimacy of the Northern Lights Theater also made it memorable. We had 2nd row seats!

When was the last time you can have a BOOTLE of beer or mixed drink and enjoy a great concert. 5 Stars to Genesse Theater. I would have rated the whole night a 5 star reveiw if the Bodeans were allowed to play past 10 pm that night. They seemed to be rushing through the show a bit to give you the show you would expect from them but only one encore was allowed due to going 4 minutes over the 10 pm deadline. 6 Stars to the Bodeans for playing non-stop music to entertain the crowd. Thanks! We will return again and glad we gave this venue a try.

The band was great even without Sam. All the band members were just great and added to the performance. We really liked the table seating and service at Northern Lights Theater. Not being gamblers, we didn't realize smoking was allowed in the casino and serivce in the FirePit was the worst ever! But that did NOT take away from the fabulous show.

I loved their show a few years ago at Ravinia, which is an outdoor venue. I have enjoyed their music for decades and decided it would be a good event for holiday fun. They played all the favorites, some less well known tunes and one song from their upcoming album. The crowd, including myself, enjoyed every minute of the 1.5 hour show.

I didn't enjoy the concert, mostly because it was way too loud for the venue. I actually walked out after less than an hour of the music because it was hurting my ears so badly. There were other people who left also. I wouldn't recommend seeing them unless you bring your ear plugs.

While Kurt did a nice job covering songs, both old and new, without Sam Llanas' harmony and unique voice, it just wasn't as good or fun. I don't really like the direction the sound is going with the new tunes. I won't be going back to a BoDeans concert.

We went to see the Bo Deans as we do any time they are anywhere in the area. The show was great and we enjoyed the other music as well. We were disappointed that the Bo Deans did not come out and sign tee shirts or CDs. The had nothing for sale at the table. I don't think that the band cares if you take a picture. The staff told us not to take pictures. I could have gotten some really good shots but I just got a few.

MN state fair, Big Head Todd & the Monsters opened the show with a high energy, bluesy, roots rock set that had everybody engaged from the first song. Hats off to the FOH engineer it was one of the better sounding sets that I've heard this year! The Bodeens did not have the energy that I expected they almost seemed a little tired & bored. The sound was not up to par and was way too vocal heavy, I get it it's about the vocalist, but there wasn't any punch to the rest of the band.

VooDoo Lounge is a great place to see a show. Small, quaint environment yet feels like a professional show. Ample floor area to stand, as well as bar-table seating around the sides and in the balcony. The BoDeans put on a heckuva show. I've seen them about 10 times now, and this was the second-best show I've ever seen them do (which is a good compliment - they're best show I saw was in Madison, WI about 15 years ago.). Very, very fun shows. For those who have never seen the BoDeans, I definitely suggest you check out their show sometime. Great music, great lyrics, great energy. Go. You won't regret it.

the sound was way too loud. the base was thumping in our chests. Our ears actually hurt from the sound. No matter where we sat. We spend half the concert in the lobby where the decibel level was tolerable, but of course the sound out there was muted and crappy. This was billed as "beautiful renditions of classic Bodeans songs. That implies to me.. softer.. maybe more acoustic. It was anything but!

Great show on Friday night in Indianapolis. Played the best favorites along with some random songs as a tribute to Tom Petty. They played Do I Do which was a great surprise.

The BoDeans continue to rock. They put on a great show, a little short ( 1 hr & 50 min.) considering how many songs they have in their catalog.. I only wish they would play longer and I do miss the blended harmonics of Kurt & Sam. All things considered, the Bodeans are still a "Good Thing." Recommend to see in concert whenever and wherever. They just don't make bands like this anymore. Rock on BoDeans, rock on.. Big Daddy. St. Paul, Mn.

I just thought a show at the Talking Stick would be a fun thing to do so I got tickets to see the Bodeans. Little did I know how entertaining and fun the night would be! They rocked it for two hours and I was not the only one enjoying it. We were all standing and dancing in the aisles. What a great evening! Thank you, Bodeans for sharing your talents with us. I am definitely a fan now!

For anyone who knows the BoDean's music.. you know they ALWAYS deliver. If you have never seen them, what are you waiting for? They will be touring this summer so be sure to catch them. The only thing that would have made it even better would have been a bigger crowd. They deserved that and this show was not promoted enough on social media, radio and TV.

Spectacular show. Very tight band with a straight forward approach to pleasing the audience. Kurt Neuman is probably the most under rated front man in music today. His mid-western laid back roots rock was genuine and soulful. The concert felt good.

The concert was awesome because it was the BoDeans. And I will definitely see them again. However, I will never go to this location again. The smell of cigarette smoke was nauseating and there was no escape from it.

They were great!!!!....when they finally started. Feel a bit cheated, they were set to start at 10:00, however, it was well past 10:30 before they started. Fantastic sound and songs.

One of the best venues to see a concert. We were 30 feet from the stage and everything was so intimate!

Wow! Since we had never seen the BoDeans before, we thought the front band was them. They were that good. Then the BoDeans took the stage. Amazingly clear, strong voice in Kurt Neumann. They were jammin' and we loved every minute of the entire concert. He is a humble stage presence (like a Willie Nelson ramped up) and he invited the audience to jump in, right from the beginning, introduced other band members across several songs. Really cool. So much energy and beautiful music in all of the band - great to have the fiddle player.

I hadn't heard that Sam Llanas had left the group (or that he and Kurt had been unhappy playing together). Nor had my sister. If we had, I wouldn't have bought tickets. We didn't know until the band came out on stage....and there was no Sammy. Sadz. :-( The energy of the band isn't the same without Sammy there. Having the songs all sung by Kurt just doesn't cut it. Sorry, Kurt. In addition, the long-time band members seemed to have changed. The fiddle player from Texas was the best addition. But Sammy's distinctive voice is sorely missed, and this will be the *last* BoDeans show I see unless they reunite.

With the departure of Sammy Llamas, the moody but talented co-lead singer for 30ish years, I wasn't sure how I would enjoy the show. I was glad that there wasn't a substitute for Sammy's parts (Kurt did basically all the singing with some back up on a few tunes). It seemed like the oldies focused on songs Kurt had always led on and they were great. The overall length of the show was short (1.25 hours?) But it was fun nonetheless. Only a few songs off the new album and they were fun.

Long time DC resident, first time to the Birchmere. Not a bad seat in the house and great place to see a band and have some drinks/snacks. Food is a little pricey (for what you get & venue), but you'll live. The BoDeans still put on a great show. Go!!!

The show was good. Wish that they would have played more of their older material.

Kurt and the boys mixed in some excellent new stuff along with all the favorites. By the time the women were dancing on their chairs to "Good Things," I felt like I was back at Memorial Union on a summer night...

The crowd was very small. The amphitheater was only about half full. It took a while for the crowd to get in to the music but about half way through the area in front of the stage was full of dancers. The BoDeans did a good job of mixing in their new music with their old classics. The new C.D. is the best of their recent releases and I would have actually liked to hear more of it live. Kurt and the band always provide a lot of fun energetic music so I was not disappointed.

I was so disappointed in this concert! The break up of the Bodeans has basically changed the entire sound of their music - it's just not the same. Save your money and listen to the old cds.

The show was fantastic! Kurt did a great job without harmonizing with Sammy on some of their most memorable tunes. Venue was awesome. The Bodeans are always a must to see show. 27 years they have been out there always rocking the crowd. Great job guys!

The Bodean's rocked Apply valley at he Zoo Ampitheater. Our 1st time at a concert there. We will definately be back. Afordable prices, beautiful backdrop and sound. Perfect night for an outdoor concert. Cold beer and great mucic. Music and Kurt's voice was powerful (as well as the band). The venue lacked nothing without Sammy next to Kurt which surprised me. The only bad part was when they were done playing. Not a bad seat in the place.
