Black Veil Brides

I didn't know the openers before the show and didn't really enjoy them, but Black Veil Brides more than made up for it. They were AMAZING, not surprisingly. Their show was fantastic and definitely worth hearing bands that I didn't like. I'll 1000% be seeing them again. As far as the venue...I forgot how small the Ogden is, which is usually a good thing but it really felt overcrowded, like the show had been oversold. There wasn't much room to stand and the line for the merch was a wreck, half the people thought they were waiting in line for the bar and it was moved and restarted half a dozen times. My husband stood in that line for the entirety of both opening bands, including the time in between.

The show was amazing, but ill talk about the meet n greet experience here. Meeting the guys was, def, incredible. And Ill not talk about the no-hugs policy, cause i really ''understand''. But, c'mon, i cant take my own selfies? its cool a professional photographer being a option, but i just HATE how i look when others person is photographing me, i hate full body photos, and i would really love 100% more my photos with the band if i was able to take it by myself. Also, 5seg to let at least 1 personal item be autographed, will not kill anyone. In my case, i wanted a tattoo writed by Andy, and i wasnt able to ask for. These experiences arent cheap, neither are they frequents, what made me think that need to be more enjoyable for each fan, more unique. For some, a hug is really more important than a freezy professional photo.

I listen to them for the last 10 years, I love them so much. Bought VIP as well. All of them give this warm, accepting energy, while there is something about Andy, he is not like he used to be, he is very much changed. He still interacts with audience, says nice things but those are just words that he ''must'' say, the words are not from ''the heart''. He went past Lonny on stage, but he didn't go around him, instead he pushed his guitar in the air as in ''move'' and went by. He is very strict, almost like he doesn't want to do this anymore. But I won't say anything more, I know they are very tired from the tour maybe that is it. But still every member was a lot happier than Andy even if they are tired. Especially Jake and Jinx, they always smile from ear to ear. The performance though, they give their best on stage. Rocking it!

All the artists were good! In order: Mothica, Black Veil Brides, Halestorm. I was at the BVB meet and greet, which was unfortunately a bit unspectacular (you could "only" have a quick photo taken with the band behind you and that was it). But they were all nice, including the crew! I noticed that a few of the guys were probably at the door with the fans before the show and I met Jinxx afterwards because I had bought his vest beforehand. That was great! He signed it really cool and me and my companion were both able to take photos with him. He is very nice. I just thought it was a bit of a shame that they disappeared from the stage so quickly after their performance. As far as the location is concerned, the toilets were okay (the hallway with the mirrors down there is cool and was a good place for me to retreat for a moment) but what didn't work out well was the timing with the cloakroom. Even the VIPs, who were in earlier, could only leave their things there after general admission had already begun, so you had to give up your place at the stage to go downstairs. It was smaller there than expected, at first quite fresh due to the direct access from outside and later quite warm in the tightly packed crowd.

Absolutely loved the opening act Dark Divine. They really brought a lot of energy to the show and I've heard some of their music before and after seeing them live not only bought the vinyl for both albums but they have been added to several of my playlists. While a few people I spoke with were kinda disappointed in VV, I wasn't. I absolutely loved him. He has that David Bowie presence, and while his sound is different from both DD and BVB, it fits well because, like Bowie VV defies a specific musical genre. And then there is BVB, and honestly, if you have never seen them live, ya gotta go at least once. They are so great live. So much energy, and Andy is just well great and yummy. I'm really glad I made the trip up to Seattle for this show. It was phenomenal.

The show was fun but VV seemed to be rushing through his set and eager to get off stage, which I believe hurt his chances if leave with more fans that he came in with . But dark divines six songs set was amazing from start to finish and was a shining example of an amazing opening band and they hung out at their Merch table meeting the new fans they had created with their energetic performance. And finally BVB had a great performance with the small hiccough of Someone getting hurt in the mosh (small injury, they walked out and I couldn’t see blood…..so that was unfortunate but it’s a rock show…..so mosh pit was going to happen.) BVB was fantastic but I wished they had brought that energy to the meet and greet before the show. The meet and greet was an hour wait in the hall before a rather awkward 2 minutes interaction with the boys…..where the rules of the meet and greet were broken by some people (with no security interference) and security interfering with things that were explained 3 times as being approved to do in line. Which I found sadly led to many BVB fans feeling like they had wasted their time and money getting meet and greets tickets. But the BVB set was a masterful mix of their early albums and more recently releases . They played some hits like a Rebel Love Song, perfect weapon and knives and pens but made sure to play new songs like a Scarlet Cross and Crimson Skies and closed it out with in the end ( my favourite song for them to leave off on)

One of the best concerts I’ve been too. When the tour was announced I was of course excited cause BVB but when I realized after hearing the temple of love cover they did with VV i knew exactly who VV was…the ex singer of the band HIM. I never thought I would see now VV live since HIM broke up right when I was discovering them. Since discovering the band they became the band I listen to when I’m not feeling well cause VV voice is deep let soothing. His voice translates really well live. I’ve become kinda obsessed with VV/HIM since the concert and can’t stop listening. Every band preformed really well even have a new band to obsess over.. Dark Devine.

I have no words to describe what I feel after what I experienced last night. Having the opportunity to speak to BVB directly and thanking them for the last 13 years of music and also receiving thanks in return from Andy Biersack HIMSELF for sticking with them all these years was something I'll never, ever forget! The entire show was amazing! I gotta say, if you haven't seen or heard Dark Divine, they're one to keep an eye on. Best opening band I have witnessed to date! Seriously! Seeing the legendary Ville Valo perform live was certainly a sight as well! Got to meet some new friends and rock with my peeps! The sound that erupted from me when BVB took the stage can only be described as Unholy and feral. I finally got to see my heroes perform the songs that have carried me through all these years!!!! May have shed a tear or two! Overall, it was a fabulous night and I'd do again 100× over.

The show was great. However, the M&G was not a complete experience; there was no sale of official merchandise, the photography is deficient (the cameraman did not do a good framing, it does not have light, nor color, not background wall) and the time with the band is very very little, just a few seconds :( My suggestion is that the VIP also include the video of those few seconds that we are with the artists or that they include an autographed CD because the poster ends up in bad shape after the concert :(

The guys were obviously great, sound was amazing and generally it was a very well put together show by the band's part. The venue however was not as good. I don't know if they sold more tickets than the amount of people that could fit in there but there was no space at all. I was sort of in the middle of General at first and i'm short so i expected not to see a lot but i literally couldn't even see the big screens because of how close people were to me. I couldn't even move my arms and it was hard to breathe. When it started, I got too overwhelmed so i decided to move to the back in order to have some more space. However, this made it worse; I was pushed even harder than before, not because of people being rude but because literally no one had space to move. It was very uncomfortable and i couldn't even enjoy the concert properly because of how anxious this made me. The guys were amazing but the organization at the venue could have definitely been way better.

Okay listen, the band was great the guys are great and I give THEM 5 stars no doubt I loved the show. But if I could rate the team and venue I'd probably give 3 stars I dont usually complain but I purchased a VIP upgrade for almost twice the price than the concert ticket (which had to be purchased separately too btw). It supposedly included early access to the venue + early access to merch. Not really. First, I had been making the VIP line for an hour outside the venue, I was on the first half of the line and i was so happy about it, but when we accessed the venue, security lady stopped me and said I cant bring makeup in my bag. I had to do my makeup earlier in the car on the way there so I had all my makeup with me and I wasnt gonna throw it in the trash just like that, and mind you, makeup was NOT on the list of forbidden items that THEY posted earlier that day and that was printed on the wall. This set me back for a while arguing with them and when I finally got in I was almost last on the VIP line... so, I was one of the last people to meet the guys and when I finally ran to the stage floor, people from General tickets were already getting in earlier too ?? and I got a worse spot than I expected, with General people in front of me lol. M&G lasted literally like 20 seconds with the band just to say hi, take the picture and go. A friend from MTY said they got a lil while to chat with them and I was expecting that, I hand-made gifts for the band and I wanted to give them personally. I couldn't. So in general we paid 3 times the price for a poster, having a photo taken and saying hi to them in 20 secs (we weren't even allowed to hug, fist bump, or make contact in the least as instructed by some guy '''because of covid'''. So that was a real bummer honestly. We did not get earlier access to merch either since it was sold outside at the end of the concert, only 2 types of tees lol But the guys were great, friendly and kind. Hope the team checks this better next time

The crowd was the worst I’ve ever seen (the left looked like it was having fun but the right side was borderline disrespectfully dead) but the bands were AMAZING. Atreyu did an amazing job opening they tried to get the crowd hyped up and we’re so energetic and involved. I’m a huge BVB fan so seeing them perform for the first time was incredible. INK put on an incredible performance. I’ve watched videos and they more than lived up to the hype. MIW is as nice in person as they seem. Chris stopped the show to check on someone. They had fun and you could tell. I 110% am going to see all the bands again!

Lonny, I'm so sorry that you broke your leg😔💔 I hope it gets better soon and that you'll have a speedy and safe recovery. The concert was amazing!🖤❤ I loved all the bands and songs they played! I loved seeing you guys perform, head banging, and jumping all over the stage. The concert itself was an amazing time!😊🖤❤ I just wished the RIP upgrade was better😔 First, we start an hour later. I understand that they came from Washington, but I think having an extra day to get ready and recoup would have benefited everyone, including you and your fans. You guys could have a break from performing and relax for a bit. Instead of having the Calgary Concert on the 22nd (my birthday), they could have had it on the 23rd. I wish I could have had a chance to talk to the bands for a bit, but right after the photos and trivia, they had to get ready for the concert. I probably won't buy a VIP ticket unless if it's just Black Veil Brides performing or if they have an extra day to rest and set up. I wish the RIP upgrade could have been at least a little more personal. I really did love the concert!🖤❤ It was super fun to see new bands. Sadly, they didn't do an encore😔 I hope Lonny's leg gets better. Please come to Calgary again! ❤🖤I love seeing you guys! You are my heroes! You've inspired me to follow my dreams, and helped me through my dark times. You've made me the person I am today. I love you guys!🖤❤

OMG this was my first BVB concert and I went with my mom because the friend I was going to go with got sick but the guests who were there with (Not VIP) BVB I was shocked by! I knew Andy's mom and dad were going to be there and Andy's wife Juliet. But Joe Flanders (Andy's cousin), Inna Pitts (Jake Pitts' wife) and Ryan Seaman (former Falling In Reverse drummer and went on tour with Icon For Hire as their drummer, and now in I Don't Know How But They Found Me) I was shocked when I saw Ryan and I got a picture with him. I met Juliet at Warped Tour on June 22nd and she said she remembered me. The only other time that happened was at Warped Tour and it was the band MAKEOUT's lead singer Sam Boxold because I met MAKEOUT for the first time on February 23rd at Denny's there by Chain Reaction. I also got Andy's sweaty towel after the concert. CRAZY YEAR FOR ME!

The concert was great, but I felt the VIP experience was rushed for no good reason. We were told to get there by 3:30, didn’t get let in until 5, and then had to wait another 2 hours for the concert to start. Also, not being able to hug the artists/ asking them to sign a t shirt felt like a money grab and disingenuous. I don’t know if this is on the artist or the venue, but that was a bit of a let down considering I’ve been to VIPs for “bigger” artists and they let you hug/ ask for signatures/ and talk to the artists for a couple minutes. Lastly, the one picture per VIP lanyard was kind of ridiculous. It’s not that hard to take 2-3 pictures just to make sure at least one is good. Either way, BVB did great combining old material with their new album and they were amazing entertainers.

(The Black Mass Tour) I thought all bands there were pretty awesome!! Drama club didn't really go with the metal theme, but they kept the crowd pretty pumped. Set It Off was so cool. Cody walked on the crowd and did trust falls into the audience. Falling In Reverse screamed a lot and kept the audience entertained. It was hard to stay safe in the crowd then. BVB: I loved seeing how they interacted on stage. Honesty, they deserve a better sound guy because I could barely hear Andy at all and I should be able to despite the screams. They played a good mix of songs from all old albums and the latest one IV. I'm so glad I went. Next time, I'll go alone or bring a friend who's used to that type of concert since it was hard to keep her safe

bro, it was the best night of my fucking life. falling in reverse was alright, set it off sucked, but I actually really liked drama club and im pissed bc I had a really good opportunity to get a picture and i didn't. it was like nine thirty when bvb came on, I've never screamed so loud in my life. I could see andys face, I could see part of his ass because his pants kept slipping. I was so fucking close, I was as close as I could go. they played heart of fire as their opening, and I just stopped singing at like the second verse and just looked at them. I had to take a moment and realize that I was looking at Jeremy Ferguson, I was looking at Jacob Pitts, that was Christian Coma like fifty feet away from me, and Andrew Dennis fucking Biersack was fifty feet away from me. I almost broke down like ten times, especially when they played a recording of overture. it didn't matter that it was just a recording, that was the song that I fell in love with and that most importantly saved my life. It was unbelievable. it was so fucking loud, my ear is still ringing. but it hasn't sunk in yet, I don't know if it will. but it was the best god damn night of my life.

I didn't get to see the black veil brides because my friend didn't like how everyone was in the music and jumping and what not but that's my kinda thing. We seen drama club which was awesome, set it off was really good I got to touch the lead singer hand and anything now falling in reverse was really good I didn't get to see the whole thing because my "friend" crying because she wanted to go home! She's 15 and I told her how theses concerts go she said "yeah I've been to them before and what not" but my heart broke because I knew I wasn't gonna get to see my idols black veil brides :( they ain't even coming back to Chicago probably for a long time :( i just wish I could've seen them

It was fan-fucking-tabulous I loved it the only thing I will say is I wish I could've gotten closer to the stage, my phone hadn't died during bvbs set, i couldve heard andy better, and cc's drum stick hadnt broken cause of crazed fans trying to rip it out of my hands other than that it was great I had an amazing time but I honestly recommend they go to the house of blues next time cause better sound quality and My dad knows people there so I would've gotten VIP packages and been able to meet them xD

It was a great concert over all, all the bands were grand & the crowd was energetic. There were some rude drunk people, but that's to be expected at a bar/club venue. The only thing I can think of that wasn't to great was that there was confusion as to weather or not BVB would do a signing after their set, Andy had announced he'd be at the merch table after the set, but once everyone was over there their merch guy said none of the band members were coming out to sign. It was a hit if a let down, but people were pretty calm about it. Over all great concert. I'd defiantly go to a show like this again
