I am a devout heavy metal man. Pretty sure I was born that way. I always thought that country could be damn good if they dropped the twang an let the band loose jammin. I finally got to witness that with FFDP and Brantley Gilbert. Thanks for having the pit with no chairs and the the stage where it belongs so everyone can see. Hopefully everyone takes note. And a special shout out for Cory Marks. Killer cover with big jet airliner. Thank you for a great show.
Sioux Falls, SD@Denny Sanford Premier CenterIt was AWESOME! This was the 5th concert I've been to, but my first rock concert. And I think this is the best one I have ever been to! The band was super interactive with the crowd, even holding competitions between one side of the stadium and the other, seeing who could scream "Burn mfr burn mfr burn" louder. Ivan even threw his hat into the audience, along with a TON of guitar picks. 5 stars, would definitely see them again!!!
Kansas City, MO@T-Mobile CenterWould've been great if a transformer wouldn't have been hit and knocked out the power part way through the last band. On top of that, Megadeth had technical problems and for whatever reason they had to cut their set in half. Even though there was one band left, why couldn't Megadeth's time be paused? Is it the venue's (Usana Amphitheater) fault‽ I've been waiting for 30+ to see Megadeth live since I knew of them! It was so great to see Dave and the band shred though, I truly hope they come back to Utah for another concert very soon!

The show wasn't the problem. The was I had been waiting for 10 months to finally get to experience 5FDP in concert with my son. But Usana with all the money they make failed to keep the tech crap up to date so after power went out & couldn't get the show running again. I paid for nothing & to make it worse..The band spend almost an hour on stage giving away signed shirts, guitar picks drum sticks Etc cause they felt bad but us lower class people who couldn't afford pit tickets weren't even allowed to get close to the band even after almost everyone had left. This was the concert that my son and I were the most excited to go to and then he lets me know this morning that Five Finger Death Punch might be calling it quits they had mentioned at the concert in Denver about retiring. I don't expect the band to come into the crowd but the fact that security wouldn't let us close to the pit to maybe interact with the band was ridiculous considering we stayed till the very end and was kicked out. That's how much we love Five Finger Death Punch but if you didn't pay the money for the expensive tickets you ended up with nothing but disappointment because you know the show was going to be out of this world. Thank you to Five Finger Death Punch for all the amazing music you have provided us over the years. You have definitely been my favorite group my whole life sincerely Cassandra Martin from Grantsville Utah
West Valley City, UT@USANA AmphitheatreThe Good: New fan of The Hu !! Very impressive and such a new sound.
The Great: Megadeth did not disappoint ! Every thing I expected and more. Seen them for the 3rd time over the last 20 years, and Dave still shreds like a 20 year old. The sound was super clear, very loud and had so much energy. A metal OG legend still puts out a top tier show ! Love it.
The Bad: Love 5FDP, but Ivan's microphone and sound was terrible !! Glad I knew the words, because otherwise you couldn't understand most of what he said. They had the energy and they definitely carried the energy over from Megadeth.
Great night of Music !
Charlotte, NC@PNC Music PavilionWhite River Amphitheater is in an awful area. The venue itself is amazing! The bands sounded perfect aside from maybe a microphone cutting out during the first few songs. First time being at an outside venue. We've gone to many of 5FDP concerts elsewhere. Many more in the future. I cannot believe how great Magadeth sounded, that was a trip to me.
Side note... My husband is a major stress case and a severe workaholic. First time in over 20 years I've seen him have fun!
Auburn, WA@White River AmphitheatreThe guys are hilarious! ... I’ve seen them perform many times but have never met them, so, I only have experienced their stage persona — which I absolutely love — and so had no idea really about how they are when not performing and how funny and personable they are. They can also tell a great story! I really enjoyed the live stream! Looking forward to their November show at Tinley Park and hoping I finally get to meet them!
@Live Streamzuerst die vorbands: bad wolves haben überraschend stark und imposant gestartet. unfassbar geniale band, die ich vorher noch nicht kannte. dass die band stylistisch eng mit 5fdp verwoben ist, ist allerdings deutlich hörbar.
megadeth war eine enttäuschung. aber sind ja auch nicht mehr die jüngsten und der zum glück besiegte kehlkopfkrebs forderte wohl ebenfalls seinen tribut.
5fdp haben das kleine tief jedoch mehr als nur hochgezogen. die halle war förmlich am brennen. zuletzt sah ich sie 2010 bei rock am ring, aber dort konnte die performance nicht einmal ansatzweise die in der stadthalle erreichen. moody läuft zu alter form auf und das spürt man. zehn sterne!

Such and amazing concert. It was my first time seeing Five Finger and they were just awesome. Ivan was so engaging to his audience he seems like a really cool guy. He seems to really enjoy what he does, it made the whole experience so much more. He talked a lot about so many things drug recovery, his daughter, military, he signed to a deaf girl and gave her a signed sign for her brother who just got back from being deployed, sans happy birthday to a girl, gave out candy to kids. This is definitely one of my favorite concerts.
Not forgetting Three Days Grace either. I’ve loved them for years, and so glad I was finally able to see them live, they were super awesome too.
Knoxville, TN@Thompson-Boling ArenaFive Finger Death Punch killed the stage, the dang line up they sang was top notch. Besides the technical difficulties was a tad annoying. the pyrotechnics, lasers and the stage was badassery.
Three days Grace was amazing as always with their songs.
Bad wolves and fire from the gods was killer too. Please come back to Jacksonville. It was one of the best times I’ve by myself so far. Seeing bands give it there all is truly spectacular and mesmerizing. Keep it up and keep making great music 🤘🏼
Jacksonville, FL@VyStar Veterans Memorial ArenaAmazing show great sets and a lot of fan interaction. My only gripe is the crowd, over half the crowd was shorter people bitching about how they cant see because of the tall people. Almost got into 2 fights in the pit because people who dont like the pit tried to bring me to the ground and another guy threw a full beer and hit me in the face got no beer on me because I got hit in the face with the side of the cup. If you cant handle the pit get the fuck away. The only reason they say no moshpiting is so target center cant get sued by injury.
Minneapolis, MN@Target CenterAs per usual, Five Finger Death Punch blew the crowd away. The bar for arena shows has been set. The lineup was absolutely killer. From Ashes To New came out swinging! Their set got the crowd primed and ready for the following bands. Matt's honesty about his struggles really showed that rockstars are human. Bad Wolves, there's not much to say about them that hasn't. Tommy brings so much energy and passion to the stage. It's very evident the entire band loves being there and performing for their fans. 5FDP stole the night. From start to finish Ivan and the rest of the crew melted every single face in the arena. The only bad thing I can say about the night.... Breaking Benjamin... I wasn't expecting much but wanted to give them a second chance. The band just doesn't seem like they're into performing. They're a great studio band. I really enjoy their music. But their live performances fail to keep me interested. They seem to be going through the motions on the stage. I don't "feel" the music like I did with the other three bands. The passion the other bands played with was absent when Breaking Benjamin came on stage. I don't think I will go to anymore BB shows and that saddens me to say, because I do truly enjoy their music.
Portland, OR@Veterans Memorial ColiseumFive Finger is my band. The one that I won’t miss- I MUST see them when they’re in town. They’re always awesome and absolutely worth seeing live. Wednesday was no exception.
They did seem to have some problems with sound though. Very muddy at first, couldn’t hear the guitars, especially solos, for the first four or five songs. Some problems with vocals too but they seemed to get it worked out.
Probably the biggest disappointment of the night was the venue. I had never been to Broadmoor World Arena and will likely never go back. Those people have no idea what they’re doing. Doors opened at 5:00 and at 6:20 we were still waiting to get it. Merch booths are set up right next to the entrances, metal detectors are a guy with a wand, not the ones one walk through- slow and inefficient. Concession booths are set up directly across from each other causing a bottleneck in the hallway. This place makes the Fillmore look good. And I hate the Fillmore. Give me Pepsi Center, Fiddlers Green or Red Rocks any day.
Colorado Springs, CO@Broadmoor World ArenaIt was amazing and so much more kid friendly than I expected and have ever seen a rock concert! Yes there were some curse words, but so much less than what is heard on a normal album and the lead singer even invited several kids up on stage to sit with him while he performed a song. So awesome and so inviting. Will definitely be bringing my son for his first rock concert to see them when they are in town next. Recommend, recommend, recommend!
Auburn, WA@White River AmphitheatreThink is only about 5FDP. Very disappointed in total. There were several bright spots; Zoltans birthday surprise from the Bad Wolves, props to service men and women, great job on Lift Me Up, music was good and the sound was done right first time all night. From opening though the energy was just off. Voice cracking, out if tune, missing lyrics, poor timing between songs, set seemed designed for a smaller stage. Also, I love to sing to the band, but sing FOR them is a bit too much. It felt like a good 1/3 of the set was performed by the audience. Mediocre show guys. I expected much better.
Birmingham, AL@Legacy Arena
The concert was great. Probably the best show on earth right now. I would not recommend spending the money on the VIP meet and greet though. It was so disorganized. We ended up missing all of the as lions show and most of sixx am. We were herded like cattle and ran through a photo shoot so fast I barely even remember it. That's the meet and greet. Then the VIP passes don't get you anywhere for viewing the concert. We were only led back to the floor which was already packed as the show was sold out. So you have $400 tickets that get you at the very back of the standing area on the floor. Pathetic. Never again. Lesson learned. All of the other VIP ticket holders were just as frustrated as we were. That's a piss poor way of treating fans that spend a ton of money on special VIP tickets.
Peoria, IL@Peoria Civic Center
Had one hell of an amazing time last night! The best of it came after the show when I got to meet Jason Hook and he gave me a hug. Also met Zoltan and Zach Meyers from Shinedown. What a dream come true! This concert was well worth the pain of having a fractured shoulder and standing all night in the Pit, in the very front with a severely infected around on my foot. Well worth all the pain! Shinedown was beyond, BEYOND amazing as well. such an honor seeing all the brands! Such an amazing concert!
Anaheim, CA@Honda Center
We got a special performance by a new band As Lions, they were great. Sixx Am was as always energetic and performed amazing. For never seeing Shinedown, I now wanna see them again, they really out did it. For Ivan from 5 Finger Death Punch to not be there, the lead singer from All That Remains sounded just like Ivan. if you'd never see 5FDP, you wouldn't known a difference

While there are too many great songs to fit into a short amount of time, Five Finger Death Punch did a great job of choosing the right tunes for an amazing performance. The newest songs fit in with the older hits amazingly, and the beauty of a brief acoustic moment prove that this is a hard core band with heart. Anyone who hasn't seen Death Punch live should do so at their earliest opportunity.
Cincinnati, OH@U.S. Bank Arena
Ive have seen them at least four different times n this last time i was disappointed bc the show wasnt as good as all the other times. Im not sure as far as if ivan had some issues going on but he just didnt seem to b into it as much as he normaly is but volbeat was awesome they pointed out my little girl that we took she is three n got a t shirt out of it n was very excited she was afraid to go on stage but other then that nothing more was a no call no show so i have lost all respect for them very disappointed on them bc of that.
