Rise Against

Rise Against is my favorite band of all time so I’ll try my best to write a non-biased review. Even after 25 years these guys are still as energetic and invested in their performance as ever. They played a good number of their hits along with a brand new song of two. As always, Tim was speaking positivity throughout the entire show without being preachy. As far as the quality of the music goes, I don’t think they’ve ever sounded better live, especially Zach and his guitar solos. The extended “jam sessions” are a welcomed bonus too. My personal favorite part of the show is the fact that Tim remembered me from a previous show in Myrtle Beach. Also, #GoCubsGo

What a treat! Still don't know how I was able to see them at a 1400 person capacity show! Place was awesome and the sound was great. Staff had a great balance between control and permissive. Band was really enjoying playing and entertaining the crowd until 11pm

Took my son for his 18th bday gift ... He's a HUGE fan! It was a GREAT show and I was very impressed by the connection Rise Against has with their fans. One of the fans made bracelets for them and the leaf singer just stopped mid song, got the bracelets, said a little something brief and thoughtful, then went back to performing. I thought that was a BEAUTIFUL thing and says A LOT about this band. ❤️ Also, the venue was wonderful! 🥰

Rise has seriously evolved in the 21 years I’ve been following them. This was an epic performance where a dove flew around on top of the pit for a couple mins, then Tim played a song with glasses lense, then another fan climbed the metal pole but what a show. A bit grimey venue but a great place for a punk band!

My friend and I drove 8 hours to see this show. Rise Against does not come to our area much so we needed to go to them. The band is incredible, great performance as always. The Venue on the other hand needs some work. You have security to make sure people do not bring in weapons and to control who can and cannot drink and thats great! However your crowd control sucks. We got to the venue early enough that we were able to secure a spot front and center at the baracade. This meant standing outside in the freezing cold and standing 3 hours in the pit at the front before the band came on stage. We were so badly bruised after the show from the constant moshing, body surfing and kicks to the head. The security in the front at the stage did nothing to warn us if people were coming our way, no mirrors or any type of crowd control at all and bodies were falling and banging in to us every 5 seconds. I am NOT able to carry a body over my head and I should not be expected to. All it takes is for one person to fall and snap their neck. No gun or weapons are alllowed, but slamming into people is. I bought a shirt before the show that i lost trying to leave the front and go to the back, so I had to buy another one. Never again will I go to this venue and I will not recommend it to anyone.

The show was amazing! I enjoyed it so much and I left with really good energy! However, the microphone of the vocalist was with the sound low, so in many moments it was not possible to hear him singing - the sound of the guitar and drums overlapped.

Had no expectations s of the two opening bands because I don’t know them but they did a good job. Rise against though we’re on point ! I love when bands don’t try to change up their music and do a variation of their songs. They actually exceeded my expectations and were awesome! The Ranch is such a great venue and look forward to going to more shows there.

They play good live but it was just too slow for me and not enough energy imo. I gave them 3 just because I know that’s my personal preference and they weren’t bad I just didn’t prefer the music overall. The Story so Far’s lead singer just stood there the whole time

I was waiting so long for the RA Show in Berlin and it was amazing, fantastic and very good. But They definitely need to change the special guest "The story so far" they were lame. I am looking forward seeing Rise Against again in Berlin. Keep it up guys.

I could see them play everyday and never get tired of it. I could listen to the same song on repeat and never get bored. Their music reaches my soul and touches my heart. I'll never feel better than when I do while listening to them. <3

Took my daughter for her first concert and it was pretty damn great. Same venue I went to for my first concert over 20 years ago. She left with a lotta merch, some bruises and soreness from her first pit and a great memory for her first concert.

Rise Against totally brought it. They put on an amazing show. Every. Single. Time! Pennywise was great as always! Palladium: Looks like it was oversold again. What a shitshow. It would've been The Station all over again had a fire broken out. Same thing with the Coheed show they put on outside. Looks like your greed is showing ...

The sound was off for the first 2...disappointment bc I was looking forward to Pennywise. But rise was good as always. It's been too long since they have been here and I was finally glad to see them at the news venue. The security team was on point and the staff were super nice. My experience with this venue has been good so far. I am hoping more bands decide to choose and play here in the future.

Incredibly different for a Rise show that was an unplugged acoustic set. They were phenomenal as usual! Great hearing songs they don't normally do along with their killer tunes. The orchestra completed the show. Glad I could be part of the fortunate to see one of these 5 shows.

First time seeing them and spent the whole show almost in tears. These guys are so amazing and seeing them live is an absolute must!! I missed Anti-Flag unfortunately but AFI was also incredible! The love in this building was real and I will never miss a show again!!

Rise against has never put on a bad show and i have been to a few now and each one feels like my very first show. I will follow them to the venue closest every time. All the bands were amazing, the venue was the nicest i have been to yet. Anti-flag was a blood pumping success! A.f.i was a damn dream boat, i never thought i would get to see them live and let me tell you that was one on my bucket list and it was amazing.

AFI was freaking awesome like always. Rise Against was great too, but their mix was bad, Tim's voice didn't come through clearly enough (at least in the couple spots I tried), and when he was speaking I could barely understand a word; this was odd because his live vocals are usually much clearer than most bands I see. Other than that, awesome, I hope to make it to more shows on this tour.. Anti Flag was a bit disappointing to me however, like they were trying too hard to act punk.

This show was AMAZING! Its not often you get to see such a well-known band of this caliber in such an intimate venue... and they completely rocked the place! Sound was great which is SUPER important for Rise - I've seen some truly horrible shows due to poor sound. But not here.... The Troubadour coming through as always!

First intro band was great instrumentally but I feel could use some work on vocals!(can't understand the screaming) didn't tlike the second band at all but Rise Against exceeded all expectations for me and made it worth the money! Will attend every concert I can of theirs!!
