It was actually a great concert with a band in fine form and a fantastic, rich sound. Well mixed, with the vocals easy to make out. But: ‘sold out’ meant, in this case, that the organiser had sold far too many tickets. I can’t remember ever seeing the Columbiahalle so packed. Pogo, mosh pit? Fancy a beer or a trip to the loo? Impossible! If you bobbled your knee, you’d be ramming the person in front in the backside. Completely antisocial ticketing by the organiser!

Einfach ein mega Konzert und die Vorbands Sevendust und Daughtry waren der Hammer. Bei Alter Bridge gab es mehrere Gesangseinlagen von Mark Tremonti und auch eine gute Mischung von alten und neuen Songs. Lieder wie Blackbird, Rise Today und Fortress live zu erleben waren allein schon das Kommen wert.

Amazing gig. Loved the setlist and the energy and sound of the guys is just great. Got to witness the live premier of my favorite song off the new record: "Playing Aces". The floor was very crowded so maybe next time the guys could even book a bigger venue?

The show was amazing! Beforehand I was bummed out by the official announcement of Shannon and Rob departing, which I read exactly a day before the concert, however the two musicians filling in did awesome work and the whole entire show was exactly what I wanted basically. It'd be five stars if it weren't for the steep ticket price and basically half of the people missing but that's nobody's fault really. cheers

AHH, it was such a great concert. I stood at the barricade the entire show. The setlist was amazing, they didn't play Tokyo smoke which was a tiny bit upsetting - HOWEVER they did play house of glass which is my absolute favorite so at the end of the day it didn't matter lol. As well as that, they played sable tooth tiger, which is an amazing song. So overall I'm so so happy I went and the show was GREAT.

Spiritbox was really amazing! Courtney's, the bassists and guitarist stage presence were really memorable. They had huge screens and a nice light setup which added a lot to the spectacle. They played/sand flawlessly. I wasn't a big fan of the setlist (way too many songs from the first EP), and the vocals should have been louder, at times it was hard to hear through the wall of sound. Periphery unfortunately played instrumental as Spencer was sick, such a shame...

Madrugada are just incredible. This gig Was brilliant and I can't wait to see them again soon, hopefully in the UK. My only small gripe is that they didn't play much from the latest album "Chimes at Midnight". While I love all the previous stuff, this album is their finest work so far. Please play the whole album next time!!!!

The band is perfect! The sound was also great. But... there was the problem that the most of Berlin places have. There was too hot and stuffy. Even in several meters from the doors. And it was just 17 outside, not 32 like two days before the concert. I am afraid to imagine how it was in the meddle of the hall. My wife and friends just left after less than an hour simply because they couldn't stay there any longer. The elderly man that stood in a few meters of me sank into a faint. That is the shame! There must be air conditioning in such places. It is just a torture without it.

Amazing show!! 😍 I have nothing more to say, Bad Omens surely knows what they're doing while keeping passion for their work. Even though I have not listened to Poppy before, I have really enjoyed their performance and found a new artist to listen to along the way. 🤗 The staff at the venue was very polite the whole night and alert regarding injuries/emergencies etc during the show. I'm thankful for the help I recieved from other fans and the staff during my incident. 🖤 The only thing that war not that pleasurable was the heat that obviously builds up due to about 4000 people singing, screaming and dancing in a closed and rather small area, as well as the main band using fire effects during their show. But nothing too bothering in my opinion. Overall, I was very pleased with the experience even though I have to advise to rather not bring any extra clothing or bags that you need to store at the cloakroom because it is very hard to reach once everyone storms off after the show finished. If you're very aware of the difficulties you might face during a visit and plan ahead accordingly, chances are very high you'll enjoy your visit and are able to create some awesome memories either alone or with company around. ✨

The Venue and Poppy were amazing, the sound quality too. It was just a shame that the fans were pretty rude and had no idea how concerts work. I usually don’t no d screeching fangirls (I kinda am one myself but this time it was really bad..). I’ve been to a lot of concerts and festivals and this one had the worst vibes I’ve ever experienced. Other than that, as I said, Poppy was incredible, Bad Omens weren’t bad, however, they were pretty late and the pauses between the songs were jarring. All in all, would go again, but maybe not in the pit this time, it’s not worth it because there’s no moshing or anything.

Es war gigantisch! :D Anders kann man eine #thedarktenor Show nicht beschreiben. Das neue Bühnenbild ist sehr ansprechend und die Show mitreißend. Man kann sich dem Geschehen nicht entziehen. Billy reißt einfach alles mit, keiner bleibt auf den Stühlen. Bei der ganzen Action auf der Bühne und seiner Akrobatik im Saal, wenn er mitten im Publikum über die Sitzreihen von hinten nach vorne klettert gibt es nicht einen schiefen Ton. Es ist schon beeindruckend anzusehen, wenn unser sportlicher Rocker-Tenor bei seiner Kletterpartie das Publikum begeistert und High Five alles abklatscht, was abgeklatscht werden will. Und immer noch stimmt jeder Ton. :D Die Songs von dem neuen Album sind so gewählt, dass gleich der ganze Saal kocht und nach seinen Möglichkeiten und dem beschränkten Platzangebot der Bestuhlung mittanzt und singt. Es ist immer ein Highlight und es lässt bei keiner einzigen Show irgend etwas zu wünschen übrig. Danach geht man beschwingt und gutgelaunt nach Hause und freut sich einfach auf das nächste Event, das bei uns nicht lange warten lässt... Die nächsten Shows sind für uns nächstes Wochenende in Hagen und in Dortmund. Dann geht es im Oktober weiter. Es stehen ja zum Glück noch einige an. ;)

Amazing show! The band made the crowd so excited and their performane was out of this world. It was the best concert I have been to in the last ten years. Venue is great, except for the heat. They should invest in better ventilation.

I love their music and their energy! But my personal experience was not that great, I got stuck behind a big wide guy who was filming the stage with his phone the whole time, so he covered my view most of the time not only with his huge body but with his huge hands as well. Also I saw that there were people on the balkony with some special bracelets, but I didn't see an option to choose ticket categories other than the Stehplatz when I was buying tickets, so that was confusing. If I had an option I would probably go for the balkony ticket instead. And also the venue was pretty hot (it is summer, but I wish they had some better ventilation or air conditioning). But nonetheless I had fun time singing along to one of my favorite bands. The sound was pretty good even to the side of the stage.

The last time I saw Phoenix live was 2014, so I was extremely excited to see them after such a long time. Their show was one of the most fun and cathartic shows I’d been to. They bring so much energy and great music to make their show such a memorable experience. I can’t wait to see them again soon!

I bought tickets for my friends so I can watch the concert and spend time with them since they’re just visiting me for the weekend. They know about Phoenix but aren’t a huge fan. After the show, they said it’s one of their favorites now 😁

The performance was beautiful. Only two downsides were that it was a lot of people even for this big concert hall and the second is that there was a lot of low end but not much mids and highs arriving at the crowd. The audio could have been set up better.

Es war ein wunderbarer abend. Joss war voller Energie und bester Laune, auch wenn es in der Halle furchtbar warm war. ihre Stimme war auf Tonhöhe. Der Babybauch hielt sie nicht davon ab, eine tolle Leistung abzuliefern. Die Band und die Backgroundsänger waren auch großartig. Die Vorband "King LX" war eine Überraschung der guten Sorte.

The show was amazing but the organisation wasn’t really good. I had early entry and there was no visible sign so I was one of the last early entry persons who could go in. Right after us the “normal” people could go in and I paid like 50€ more than they have paid

Best concert I’ve been to in a long time. Anderson .Paak brings an enormous energy to the stage that wowed the crowd from the first second on. His music changes to become a big party for the concert and it’s all for the better!
