John 5

Guy plays his ass off and is drummer is great as well but big complaint regarding the lack of bass player - clearly using backing tracks. Would love to hear his rationale considering his friend Eddie Trunk is a staunch opponent of this tactic. Would have felt a lot more like a band and less like a guitar clinic.

In a word - Amazing! That man not only knows how to play the guitar better than almost everyone on the planet, he also knows how to put on an amazing stage show with the simplest of props on stage. He doesn’t need much. The talent and his natural showmanship do the rest. All I can say is that, after seeing this man three times now, I am no less impressed. If you have a chance to see John 5 solo, as it’s far less expensive, take it. If you want to see him with Motley Crue, go for it. If he went back to playing for Rob Zombie, go. However you can see the man, see him. You will not be disappointed.

Super fun show! He is so talented! The stage was so cool, he had the electric static balls that u touch n it appears to zap u (havnt seen those in years) and had 5-6 TVs playing random cartoons and old movies and it was just a really cool show! The music was a range of everything. country, blues, rock, metal, he even played the ukele. Damn he’s good! So glad I went! 💜🤘

I'd give John 5 more than 5 stars if I could. The man is one of the best guitar players I have ever seen. He makes it look effortless. And the band was just having a blast on stage. At one point he was trying to stump the band and get them to follow along as he played a medley of famous songs. The whole band was so tight they never missed a step.

This is my second time seeing John 5. I saw him in the 2018 It's Alive Tour. He's one hell of a performer. I'm glad I got to see him a second time. The only thing this event lacks is security. I had a entitled drunk lady push her way into the front. She was way too close for comfort. She then wondered why no one was moving. Everyone has their own experience. You don't necessarily have to move to enjoy the show. I told her she wasn't wanted. She then got upset like a little kid and threw her drink at my back. Of course she wasn't going to do it while I was looking. The whole crowd had my back and was thankinge afterwards for getting that lady out of there. John 5 said this show was recorded which makes it that much better since may have the possibility of seeing me in the crowd in one of his videos. Overall I had a great time and I wouldn't take it back for anything. One lady isn't going to ruin my experience.

Awesome venue and killer show! I’ve been wanting to see John 5 since I saw him playing for Rob Zombie a couple years ago and he did not disappoint! I will be first in line next time he is in town! Queensryche delivered a great show as well. Second time I’ve seen them and always a head banging good time!

The fact thatJohn 5 is such a complete master of so many different styles of music is absolutely mind blowing . Seeing and hearing is believing. His stage show is second to none as well. This is a show that you will be telling your grandkids about someday!!! John 5 is definitely my favorite guitarist.

It’s a bummer John was sick, but he still shredded. Last year his show was at Paris Theatre and the sound was shitty, and they put on a hell of a show still. John called the sound guy out for the terrible sound and absurd reverb on the snare. The sound guy then shut the whole sound system off, and John 5 lightly tossed his microphone out in the crowd. Hilarious, haha. They continued to put on a great show afterwards, even with no sound system, which the sound guy turned on after a song or two after John calling him out. It’s unfortunate last year it was the crappy sound and then this year it was John being sick, which completely removed the theatrics of the show. There’s nothing you can do about it. The whole band is phenomenal. Good show. John 5 rocks!

Jared James Nichols was phenomenal. Great guitar playing, great vocals = great tunes. John 5 is an unbelievable player. Country licks, jazz or rock/metal. He has it all. You have to love instrumental music but if you hang on great playing - John 5 is the player to see. His tribute to Scooby and the gang entitled “Zoinks” was frivolous and energetic a perfect tribute to the animated stars. Dead Girls Academy - I will leave it there - not my cup of tea.

John 5, solo tour, venue "De Helling" in Utrecht, Holland. Visited the soundcheck, had a meet and greet and rounded this great day off with a blistering concert later that night. Superb shoe, all around nice guy, if you ever get this opportunity, don't miss out on it. Thanks to John, the band, staff an crew for the hospitality, and making this a special for us all!

Worth every penny! John 5 just keeps getting better and better! If you play guitar, just love guitars in general, or are any type of musician, there is no way you can watch this man play and not be filled with happiness. He is extremely versatile, extremely proficient, and one hell of an entertainer. John 5 is a master of the guitar and a real music hero!

Wednesday 13 was amazing as per usual. Wednesday looks and sounds fantastic! His band never disappoints. Roman is the best! John5, is just an incredible guitar player. What else can I say....Bravo! I could have done without the half man throwing him self of glass that was on fire or seeing the Lizard man jam a corkscrew up his nose, but what the hell all in good fun!

John 5 and the Creatures put on an amazing show at the Blue Note in Harrison, OH. The music was spot on, the venue was awesome and the meet and greet was beyond my expectations. Thank you for letting me know that the picture I brought was from the end of "Never Gonna Stop". And thanks for being so kind to your fans!

Five Stars for The Creatures, 2-1/2 for the venue. The stage at the Blue Note is ridiculously small, and the PA way too loud. John 5 brings props and screens on the road. Had to scale his show back to fit the stage and even then the band was on top of one another. The band gets better everytime and they really connect with the audience. Look forward to seeing them again when their next album arrives bringing new martial.

Awesome! John 5 is second to none! I brought a few of my friends and family with me, and everyone of them were completely blown away! I'm glad that he plays these shows in such intimate venues. I think the best part for me is the attention he paid to my 9 year old daughter, he interacted with her through out the show, he put one of his picks on her forehead, and she has his LED mouthpiece! He gave her an experience that she will remember for the rest of her life, and this coming from one of my heros means more to me than words can express! I've been attending shows for over 30 years, and I can't think of any that I enjoyed more than this one! Thank you guys for coming close enough for us to see, and please come again soon!

It won’t let me leave a 5 Star review. This was one of the most fun shows I’ve attended. Really enjoyed seeing someone I respect so much up close and not on a screen from far away. John 5 is definitely a show anyone would enjoy but it is exciting and fun for his fans especially. Totally captivating experience! Would go many more times!

This concert was fabulous! The venue is great for shows and this one was no exception. John 5 & The Creatures absolutely threw down musically! The entire experience was super. I can't say enough great things about the show. I met John 5 after the show and my father and I took a pic with him.

John5 always aims to please! He put on a very good show once again! It was a nice blend of new, old, and a fresh medley. He even ventured out in the crowd to play!!! The venue was nice and clean, and the staff were very friendly and helpful. It was well worth the 4+ hour drive to get there!!!

Really enjoyed John 5 last night. Bought a ticket soon as they went on sale, been a fan for years. Good local band Sound & Shape opened. John did not disappoint, the guy is an amazing shred acrobat on guitar. But also exhibited his softer side with some classical and country flavored bits. Sound was excellent. Newly revamped venue was nice. Looking forward to future shows.

John 5 is not human! Swear to God, he's from another, way more evolved planet, where mad guitar skills and freaky fast fingers are intentionally, genetically bred to create super hero level shred. There is noone better on this planet, of that I am sure! I'd never get to see John 5 this close any place other than Token Lounge, unless he was playing in my living room. Incredible night, do not miss the chance to see this guy!
