The Afghan Whigs

One of the best gigs I've ever been to (and I've been gigging for 40yrs). My teenage daughters also rated as a best gig. Shepherds Bush a great music venue, great staff combined with a near 2hr / 30+ song playlist

For the past 14 years ive gone to see the Whigs every single time they come to the UK!!! Stylus.... 1st time I have been. Great mid sized venue!! Great staff and drinks prices. The Whigs !!! Incredible as always !!! Greg is a musical god !!!! Ed Harcourt who has supported them every time I have seen them was incredible also!!! Great night in Leeds!!! Thank you

The Bellwether was the ideal venue for the AW show. As usual, the band delivered a phenomenal performance, showcasing a diverse range of music spanning most of the last four decades. Their energy and engagement with the crowd were impeccable.

This is my second time seeing the Whigs and it was just as good this time as the first. They even played a host of songs from their albums that they did not play a year ago which really made me happy. Even the two new songs they played were great. The band has great energy and shows why they are still so popular even being a band that is celebrating their 40 years together (even though there was a gap in-between as they say ;)) The Fillmore was nearly sold out on a Tuesday. Fun times, good music, great venue. Can't beat it.

The show was all I needed it to be!! Greg and all rocked it! The new drummer was great and amazing how well he did what with all the songs he had to learn. This band and their music means the world to me! Thank you!! PS the venue staff were very friendly and attentive, especially the doorman, Mark.

Greg Dulli and Christopher Thorn tore it up onstage and rocked so hard, with John Curley laying down the loudest baselines and Nelson ripped the strings off of his violin. Ed Harcourt did some virtuosic work on the piano as well, letting Greg do his thing at the microphone. It was an amazing show!

The band was bangin!!! The lights at the venue were blinding to the crowd. The sound mix was a bit questionable (guitar was really light in the mix). Vocals were great and out in front. The transition from Ed Harcordt to the Whigs was really awesome. If it weren’t for the lighting at First Ave, this would have been a 10 on a scale of 1-5.

Fantastic show as usual. The Whigs are egregiously underrated. I've been a huge fan for decades and I have to go to their shows to hang with other fans. Their performance now is as stellar as it's ever been . Consistently brilliant.

What can I say? It's the Motherfucking Afghan Whigs!! Never seen a bad show from anything Greg Dulli-related. Never. Sad the boys didn't come out to chat but that's a privilege we enjoy from time to time, not a right. The Showbox is such a beautiful venue and it was so nice to be back after a long time away. Let's do this again soon!!

Band was great!!! Wish I could have heard more from Do the Beast, but it was amazing! Venue was great but there were no real covid protocols. I don't think that's a huge issue, but the ticket agency sent a few emails saying there would definitely be requires masks, negative covid tests or vaccination records.

Wow, what an amazing experience! Always a pleasure catching these guys in concert because they always offer something fresh and new with each album, and it makes for an excellent set when they play the new tunes along with the classics live.

The Afghan Whigs in any form are a 5 star plus show . Seeing them at Bogarts makes it even better . An iconic venue you in my mind . I can't wait to see them on 9/11/22. If you can see Greg Dulli do it every time no matter what.

Laut, energetisch. Akustik ganz vorn war fast schon brutal. Weiter hinten war es ok. Gruß an den Security-Mann (dunkle Haut, geknotete Haare) drinnen, der mir androhte, mich rauszuschmeißen, weil wie er es sagte, es kann. Wofür auch immer. Wichtigtuer, wie ihn, braucht kein Club. Ach ja, Dulli und Co in Hochform. Nette Geste, mitten im Gig Ohrstöpsel an Bedürftige zu verteilen. Schade, kein Lanegan- oder- Gutter-Twins- Cover.

VIP experience was supposed to include soundcheck—umm, 2 songs: no. Cat’s Cradle and/or others didn’t permit things to happen for 95% of soundcheck for the 30+ people who paid ~$150 for a $50 show. Q&A was worth $50, because Dulli is amazing; $30-40 merch. for VIP was nice. Sound was ok, but vocals were *smothered* by amped-up instrumentals—need a soundcheck? I got you, next time—just tell them to let me in! 🤘

Great to see The Whigs again! Band was on fire! Nice intimate venue and they definitely rocked it out. Interesting set list..some old..some new. I was impressed with how tight they sounded. I am thrilled I got to see one of my faves again and in Greg's birthday. Amazing show.

After four years of not seeing my favorite band and band buddies, I HAD to fly in from Seattle for this show. Very expensive but well worth every cent. The band was READY! Tight. Excited. Almost as much as the fans! Some fun banter, could have used more, but somebody yelled something at Greg which stopped his bantering. The venue was tiny, but intimate. Yes, there were tears. At least for me. I only took about 3 pictures during the show. I wanted to fully experience it in my head this time and my friends took WAY better pics than I would have. Win/win. It was hard to leave after hanging around after the show. Never can get enough of this band. Looking forward to October unless I find a way to fly to another show. So ... EXCELLENT SHOW!
