I travelled from Iceland with three childhood friends to see Geoff Tate in Southampton. We flew to London and then took the train down to Southampton, full of excitement and nostalgia. When we were young, we played Operation: Mindcrime and the other classic Queensrÿche albums endlessly, so this was much more than just another concert for us. It felt like stepping straight back into a very important part of our youth. The show absolutely lived up to our expectations. In fact, it exceeded them. The atmosphere was fantastic, the venue gave us a real sense of closeness to the band, and the musicianship was outstanding throughout. The band was tight, powerful and clearly fully committed to doing justice to songs that mean so much to so many people. Geoff Tate seemed a little rough around the edges during the first few songs, as if his voice needed a little time to warm up. But once it did, everything fell into place. And to be fair, these are not normal songs to sing. They are demanding, dramatic and vocally unforgiving. After those first few numbers, he sounded strong, present and completely in command. What made the evening even more moving was something we only learned at the end of the concert. Geoff had lost his father earlier that day, either that morning or earlier in the day. Knowing that afterwards put the whole performance in a different light. The fact that he still went on stage, gave the audience everything he had, and delivered such a powerful show says a great deal about his professionalism, strength and connection to the music. For four friends from Iceland who grew up with these songs, this was a night we will never forget. A brilliant concert, a powerful performance and a deeply human evening.

Sensational. The Brook’s stage is unique & gives a great interaction with the bands. Ad Infinitum and support bands Skarlett Riot and Secret Rule combined well to give a real “we’re a family” vibe. The sound was great and the bands all looked like they were really enjoying being there. Loved it. Cant wait to see them all again on Sunday in London.

Excellent show as always & great to hear some songs that hadn't been played for a while.

Absolutely Fantastic Show. Such a Talented Musician will definitely be going to see Samantha Fish again.

Dirty DC are fantastic. I have seen them 3 times. I have seen AC DC and I think these are better. The lead guitarist is amazing. And both the singers are great.

Absolutely brilliant!!! Great show always and we (me and my sister have been to a lot) if it’s possible this was the best yet can’t wait for the next one!! Thank you Cloudbusting you are fantastic!!!

They are the whippets nuts .....2 encores sums it up .....energy from everyone was brilliant... Keep going stereo mcs. ....👍👍👍

I've no idea because I did not go to this concert and I never was going to go to this concert. I don't know where you got the idea from that I was going.

Robin Trower was Brilliant as usual. I have been following him for over 50 years now and he’s alway fantastic. Very good venue will come again.

My only criticism was that the vocals were buried to deep into the mix on the night so at times it was a struggle to hear them. Songs and band were brilliant though, if you get a chance go see ‘em!

Always a great gig by these boys So deserve to be playing to so many more people Go seem em you won’t be disappointed

Great Venue, big stage , fast bar , crowd was awesome and we loved the show. G**s2Roses rocked the place , looked and sounded like the real deal!

Another outstanding performance at the Brook Southampton. A full venue was testament to how amazing these guys are. If you're a fan of The Doors? You absolutely have to go see The Doors Alive.

The 5th time I've had the pleasure of seeing Kris Barras Band, get better every time I see them. Phenomenal guitar player. If you get a chance go and see him, guarantee you won't be disappointed.

Fantastic gig, if you get a chance see Kris Barras Band in concert, you won't be disappointed.

Fantastic 2:5 hours of Y&T’s greatest hits in one of the best venues on the South Coast. Songs played from every album in their 45 year history, with a vintage crowd too. 11/10

Fabulous gig last time seeing Paul...so sad. Great band, great career, great songs! Only you can rock me!

Was really looking forward to this gig and wasn't disappointed. Fantastic night and her guitar playing, especially when she's playing slide is phenomenal. Great night looking forward to next time already.

Fantastic night in a different setting to what JCR is used to but the whole show was amazing!!

Great show, amazing to hear the classics again and the newer South songs. Thanks for keeping it going
