Breaking Benjamin

I love Breaking Benjamin and this was a dream come true to finally see them live. We were supposed to in 2020 but Covid stopped that. They played all of my favorite songs and I LOVED that his little son Cheech was on stage performing with them and that we got to sing him happy birthday! Unfortunately, he was having some sound issues and the guitar was drowning out the vocals. I think the mike was cutting out which sucked but I still loved it and would see them again.

It was a great show! I hadn’t heard of the opening band, Lakeview, before and now I have someone new to listen to! They were a great start to the evening! Of course, Daughtry, Staind, and Breaking Benjamin were definitely why everyone was there! Loved hearing all of them live and singing with the crowd to all of our favorite songs! It’s only my second time at the Amphitheatre, but opted this time for seats instead of the lawn. I do wish the staff would come around more to “monitor” activities, but overall it wasn’t too out of hand and everyone had a good time!

Breaking Benjamin has been on my bucket list for a really long time and the stars aligned so I could see them at Pine Knob on 9/11. I also opted for the "side stage" experience which, due to set configuration, became "on stage" experience. Wow! What a great perspective to experience the energy of the 12000 person crowd before the curtain dropped and through 3 songs. No wonder bands feed off the energy of the crowd - it is palpable! And the band members were so nice as they greeted us and acknowledged us in their space. It was truly a once in a lifetime experience that was well worth the money. The entire concert was great from the warm up bands - Lakeview (a band to watch!) and Daughtry (great performer and I seriously envy his abs!) - to Breaking Benjamin with their extensive catalogue of great songs to Staind with their long list of hits (shameful that I was surprised at how many I knew!). Overall a great evening. Also, I have to mention the staff at Pine Knob - they are always so courteous and helpful and very well organized.

The show was fn great. Ben had laryngitis so the rest of the guys killed it (per usual) and stepped up/in on the vocals…my guess is they probably all have a little laryngitis this morning. Nobody sings like Ben but man it was still so so good. I hope they come back to the southeast again AL/GA/MS/TN so their fans down here can see them. Next: The Venue. I’ve been here many a time. They need more security and better “flow” through the crowd upstairs maneuvering to the bar/bathroom. You got people sitting on the stairs and blocking entrances and exits. You have people 5 and 6 deep in front of the sound and path to the bar. It’s just not smart safety wise.…even though this was a sold out show there should have been plenty of room for us all while still being “a crowd”. I’m going to blame the weather for them being understaffed to handle the flow and a better setup. The bar and the door were well staffed though and quick as always!

I didn't make it there in time and the band is the only reason why I'm still here today they kept me going and I was so excited to see them but feel like some was lagging all day on prepuce wife I hope to God I have another chance soon to see them again because I don't know how much more of life I can take fuck have really bad brain injury and everything is so much harder now and to not get the support I need is breaking me down I'm almost at that point take care every one if you want to here my cove of so cold from breaking Benjamin my Facebook videos under Shaun Wayne McMahon

Ben and the band just seemed out of synch with one another. The choruses sounded slowed down and not great. Ben visibly seemed to be struggling vocally at points. I am sure the fact that he is not allowed to sing his older catalog has to be brutal, due to legal constraints. But if I am a Breaking Benjamin fan;and I am, I want and feel that Ben has done what he can to keep the band relevant and still rocking, so if the old band members still want to be remebered why would they not want to still sound like the Breaking Benjamin of old (with Ben Burley singing the songs)?

Really 3.5 stars. It was hit and miss. The songs where great. Their performance was great. But I think with the time restraint they had there asn't as much crowd inaction as previous shows. Maybe having 4 performers is to much. The food and drink prices are ridiculous. Right at 11 bucks for 2 bottles of water.Now as venue probably the most uncomfortable seats and no leg room. Hard for my son who is 6'3 and people behind us wouldn't stand up so left us sitting cause they griped and complained every time stood up. Why go to concerts to just sit and not rock out. and not rock out. Was in 300 section. Will try not to sit up there ever again. But BB and Seether was pretty good.

5 Fucikng stars easy !!! They could so double headline this tour - just as full throttle & amazing ad Korn !! 👊🏼🤘🏼Killer Fuck’n lineup ..worth driving 5 hrs round trip from Jersey to be part of - no doubt !!! Please put some Jersey venues (at least 1 back) in your tour schedule 🙏🏼🙏🏼= always a sellout and I feel way more energy in Jersey !! Again super Killer show !!!...I advise going out of your way to be part of 🤘🏼

Show was awesome! For consecutive years I have seen Breaking Benjamin at the White River and they didn't disappoint. They were even better this go around. Again, the White River was great, got the star parking, but took a while still to finally get out and then out of the traffic. That was due to the lack of routes to leave, so not on the White River. All in all, I can't wait until next summer to see what great shows will be there. Thank you for the great time, keep them coming back.

Chevelle was awesome! Fourth time I’ve seen them live and they did not disappoint. Thinking they should have headlined. Breaking Benjamin disappointed. They opened strong with Red Cold River, great cover set but fell flat after that. It’s been 15 years since I saw them live in a small Seattle venue, maybe my expectations were to high. Three Days Grace put on a good show, just don’t like the voice of their new lead singer. Dorothy rocked it, that woman has a set of pipes! Reminds me a lot of Grace Slick! I hope to see Breaking Benjamin again but maybe in a smaller more intimate setting where Benjamin show cases HIS voice instead of the rest of the band.

Breaking Benjamin didn't disappoint again. I was really impressed how the kids who were brought up on stage. It was a very moving moment. The hug and encouragement given to the little girl was special. The music and songs were amazing. The only thing I was disappointed in was the darkness of the lights. The musicians were in shadow and darkness a lot. This is the third time seeing them. I still prefer a smaller venue for the intimacy. I will still Love to see them again.

The GA lawn seats were far. Staff was really uptight about smoking/vaping outdoors and even broke up a mosh pit. Breaking Ben was good as always. More so the issue with the venue itself. Prices were standard concert and the worst part was definitely parking. Parked on grass and was about a 20 minute walk to the venue. They should have flipped Cheville and Three Days Grace because the fans were way more into them even despite the lead singer change. Cheville was good but people were more into TDG. Not a terrible experience but would not 100% recommend Hershey Stadium.

WOW!!! Massive sound and energy and Great Fucking night !!! Thank you Breaking Benjamin for feeding your fan base here...as you can tell - you are Very well loved here !!! Spoke to several who like myself also caught you in Albany New York on Monday...so thankful to share and join tours !!! Please remember how much love you felt here in Jersey and don’t wait so looooong to come back !!! See you on the road always. Our nights : events / time together will always be the nights I am thankful to have had ...Alwsys a Grest time and a Great Rock memory to cherish 👊🏼🤘🏼

So glad every time I get to see these guys headline!!! They bring it 100% every damn time - every single band member !!! Fortunate to catch them three times during this tour... saw them in Jersey last night where they fucking killed it @ the Starland Ballroom !!! Sooooo Much Energy and passion and love shared at this sold out show in Jersey. This was my first time at times union center in Albany New York so I must say I am super highly impressed with this venue ...give it five stars for sure !!! Loved the pit...stood at rail and was very pleased to have Breaking Benjamin lead singer come down and sing and show some love with the pit and the fans...Great night - Great crowd and all the bands freaking killed it !!

Breaking Benjamin is one of those bands that I know a lot of their songs, I just don’t always know it’s THEM. I was really looking forward to seeing them live and it was worth the hassle of the shitty venue. Very good live show. They seemed to have some problems with sound though. I don’t know every word to every song but even the ones I do know were kind of hard to hear. Still, BB was good and put on a great show. 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.

This event was just as expected it would be...AWESOME!! The venue was clean, safe and good. However, with temperatures in the upper 90’s and humidity very high. The venue needs to install fans inside the pavilion areas. I myself felt very sick a few times because I almost became dehydrated. Also when temps are that high the venue should provide more free water areas to meet basic human needs. Besides that anyone going to a Breaking Benjamin, Five Finger Death Punch show will not be disappointed.

I loved it so much I took my wife who is a hardcore country fan and this is her first rock concert ever and she loved it. Breaking Benjamin is my favorite band of all time. The music of Benjamin Burnley and Kurt Cobain of Nirvana have kept me going all these years and inspire me to create music of my own that I know will one day allow me to share a stage or simply make beautiful music with my heroes.

Korn was the headliner and they bailed. Well Breaking Benjamin stepped the fuck up and made Hollywood Amphitheater in St LOUIS their bitch! Pulling out all the stops by playing all the songs that made them who they are as well as adding in a mid concert medley of Star Wars, Pantera, Nirvana and fucking Rage! They even through a Korn song in there and it rocked. I will say the sound tech might have hit the crack pipe a few minutes before the show cause it took him a few songs to get The vocals right. Bottom line - They smashed it - come back soon always welcome in the StL!

This was our second show at this venue. The sound was less than stellar. The bass was turned up way too loud and the guitars were hard to hear. I think the band was good, just a problem with the sound. I'm not sure if it was the building or the guy at the soundboard. Bummer, because these guys have several good songs. All general admission which always have pros and cons. These guys seem super fan friendly, and put on a good show regardless of the issues with sound. I'm going to see them this summer with Disturbed. Concord Pavilion is a decent place to see a show and the sound there is usually good.

Second BB concert I went to this year, genuinely enjoyed myself but when comparing the two I enjoyed my first concert experience more so then this date. First it had to do with the venue, the sound quality was significantly less as well as the loudness in particular. The "Arena" was definately larger so I attribute that to why it wasn't as loud. For reference sake, I could easily have a conversation with my wife by speaking in her ear whereas with the first venue at Montclair, that wasn't possible. It took almost 40 in between the opening act and BB. Having listened to them months apart their track set changed. The positive was they added two more songs off their newest album with Angels Fall and Ashes of Eden. They also performed Sooner or Later and Sugarcoat which they didn't earlier I The not so positive was the other songs they added were tribute songs from other bands (Queen and Tool) that were performed by other band members. While it was impressive to see how well the other band members vocals were, when you couple those two songs with their other acoustic tributes (Nirvana, Metallica, etc) I was a bit disapponted. I am there to see Breaking Benjamin, they are my favorite band and I have them on the pedigree that Benjamin Burley has for Metallica and Nirvina. I respect and understand why the band does this. First to allow Ben quick breaks in between his songs, second to showcase the other band members talents, and third to pay homage to the band members inspirational bands. This review may be constrewed as negative in nature but that is far from the fact. If you are a BB fan you won't be disappointed. Ben sounds great live. Some people complain on his YouTube videos that he doesn't sound the same, not the case. They perform their top songs consistently (So Cold, Failure, Until the End, Dairy of Jane, I Will Not Bow). Its so great that they are back and not only producing music but performing frequently on a full tour. I am very much satisfied with their overall performance I will be seeing them three times total this year, maybe a fourth! Breaking Benjamin live is something you don't want to miss!
