City morgue was amazing, the tech crew not so much. Zillas microphone kept cutting out and he could only talk at a certain volume or it would feedback. The sound team did nothing and city morgue attempted 4 times to restart the show until they got off stage and everyone had to leave. The concert is being refunded and Zilla himself stated that city morgue will redo the concert again on their own time after the tour. City morgue was amazing The Rave is terrible.

It was an absolutely amazing show. The energy was infectious. The sold-out crowd was one of the best I've ever seen. The whole line up was incredible, and The Interrupters stole the show. Covering The Violent Femmes is always gonna be a fantastic way to start a set in MKE, especially when it's done this well. We want at least one Interrupters show per year. While you're at it, hit Madison and Chicago so we can make a whole weekend out of it.

I'm a huge fan of Lovejoy, and saw them in May as well. Their music selected for this show was pretty much the same as the one in May (although they added their new single which was awesome to hear live). Venue was hot and cramped, and it was apparent that some people were greatly affected by this as both the openers and Lovejoy had to pause the show to make sure people were okay. All the artists did an excellent job making sure everyone was good, and Lovejoy had security distribute water bottles throughout the crowd, which was very considerate! Overall, decent venue (I could see super well and I was in the middle in the middle-back) with a coat check service and good security to lead you to wear you needed to go. Glad I got to see Lovejoy again! Little Image and The Beaches opened for them, they were great picks too!

The performers and staff were awesome and friendly except for a few workers at the merch line that were a bit aggressive and loud. Lovejoy themselves was lovely. I did get the lucky chance of getting early access which was awesome however some of the crowd that arrived later on was pushy and aggressive and we ended up having to escape to avoid a fainting incident. Drinks were too overpriced, got a water and a cider for 17 dollars 👎🏽 But I would to to see more performers!

How was AlterBridge?? Absolutely fantastic. Center rail, great view. The guys play so seamlessly, and with so much heart—it makes your own heart feel like it may explode. Myles was in top form vocally and in stage presence. It was great to see Mark singing—as we all know he can. The crowd was embarrassingly small (<2000?) but we gave it our all. Always a great crowd with AB. And as Myles jokingly pointed out, it only took 20+ appearances (and 19 years) at the Rave before AB “graduated” to the Eagles Ballroom. It felt like family because they are family. 🥰

The concert was great, the venue looks great from the inside, sound was decent, but All Time Low was amazing Back to the venue though, I wish drinks were not so overpriced, there's a reason why there's practically nobody getting drinks. Lower the drink prices and you'll make more money and it will keep the plentiful bar staff busy. There really needs to be more seats in the balcony. Not just reserved VIP seats, but the non reserved VIP seats. Marking of the handicap balcony seating is pretty awful. It seems like the few people actually sitting in those seats weren't really handicapped.

The Amity Affliction cannot disappoint. This was my second time seeing them and they blow me away. I wish I could tell them how much they mean to me. Aside from them? The venue sucks. Everyone I met seemed really nice so no complaint on the staff but there is no airflow at all. Felt like I was going to pass out quite a few times as did my mom. So I don't think I will be going. The room also did no justice for them. It was harder to understand the bands even when you know the songs by heart.

Great show, great setlist. They played their hits and a couple deeper cuts. I loved that they played my 2 fave BB songs "Polyamorous" and "Follow". Ben wasn't feeling great but still toughed it out and put on a great show for 1hr 20min. The crowd was amazing helping him sing the songs. Bush did a great job as well opening up with their career-spanning 55 min. set. Catch this tour if you can, you won't be disappointed!🤘

Anti-Flag were amazing! They are just so tight. The Venomous Pinks were really good. Looking forward to seeing more of them. I don't understand the light setup. All the lights face the audience, so it's all you can see. "I think there's a band on stage?" It was a little better when Anti-Flag was on. The Rave is so grossly overpriced. $11 for a 12 oz. beer! $5 for a bottle of water that would be 50 cents at Walmart.

Band had some equipment failure causing them to start about 50 minutes late. Once they started, they were way too loud, even with plugs in. Now, I say this as a VERY frequent metal show attendee. It seems like they crank up their sound to make them more metal then they actually are. Marty Friedman played right before then and you can tell that his sound was well balanced and clean enough to hear the guitars. Would not see Queensryche again.

Blue October was awesome as always. This was an great show and it was one of my favorite shows so far. I'm not a fan of The Rave. The balcony areas seems rather unsafe. There are a lot of people up there that are handicap because that is the only area that has seating. To get from one area to another in the balcony you have to deal with steps. With the red lighting, there isn't enough light to see where you are going. It would be nice if they had the steps marked with a reflective tape or had lighting added like they have in movie theaters. I used the flashlight on my phone to see where I was going, but I didn't see a lot of people doing that. With people drinking and those steps it feels like an accident waiting to happen. Milwaukee has a lot of awesome venues and I wish Blue October would move to another location.

I've been a fan of Set It Off since 2014, and I was finally able to have the opportunity to see them live. I went to the VIP meet and greet, and I can happily say I regret absolutely nothing about going. In fact it was actually a dream come true. I'm so glad I got to meet the band and tell them how much they mean to me, and being able to take photos and get signatures from them was just an added bonus ❤️ Whenever they come back to WI, I will 100% be buying tickets to see them again

AWESOME! I wish when I bought the VIP tickets that I knew what was going to happen, so I’m going to briefly explain what it’s all about. You get to the venue and they will take you inside and give you any promotional items. Then you will take a quick photo with the band and wait by the stage for a game (heads up(charades)) then the band comes down and talks to everyone and takes any selfies or signs any items (30-45min) finally Cody gets on stage for an acoustic song (Singers choice) and that’s all for the VIP. You then can get your merch and probably a bottle of water! Everything ran very smoothly and I had a great time. The venue was hot but that is to be expected, I had a wonderful time and I hope to see the band again! Thank you for everything! I hope this helps!!

The Aquabats are fantastic performers. They are experts in audience engagement and providing that much needed getaway. Masters of adult-friendly childish content. I've been wanting to see them for years, and they didn't disappoint in any way. The Rave, as always, is a perfect venue to see this and any act. Lines for facilities never get unreasonable given the size of the crowd. Was surprised when my daughter was able to just walk into a bathroom - when does that ever happen?

I was expecting Silverstein to play Burn It Down with Caleb Shomo since they were touring together and they recorded that song together. Not to mention Beartooth taking out 2 of the biggest heaters on the album Hell Of It and Dominate and of all songs replaced it with Phantom Pain, which is personally the only song on the album I didn't like. And they came out with a deluxe version of Below recently so I was expecting to hear at least one of the two new songs and that didn't happen. This was my 8th time seeing Beartooth and this show is ranked at the bottom for me. Just kinda missed the mark with this show.

Wanted to give it a 3.5/5, but I couldn't because their choice of opener was just dreadful. I got the tickets for free and went with a friend, we were pleasently surprised how good they were! But unfortunately they don't have many good songs. So even in a 20 song set or whatever it was, like 5 of the songs weren't very good in my opinion. But for going to a free concert not knowing the main act, I can't complain too much for the main performance. But again the opener was just terrible. I have been to many concerts with bad and terrible openers. This opener was just dreadful!

OPENS WITH LOST IN STATIC OF COURSE IT WAS AMAZING! The Black Dahlia Murder was a great headliner as well. Highly ereccomend buying the vip for this venue seeing the stage from above them was awesome but of coarse I had to mosh as well. Undeth was a super cool band that we will be getting to tickets to as soon as they come near again. Got to meet them super nice and super cool definitely drive the extra time to see them in Chicago!

I had never even HEARD of Oh, Weatherly before this show. But they were absolutely amazing! It was kind of nostalgic, the kind of hard hitting pop punk that just makes you want to dance and sing along, even though they’re playing songs you’ve never heard with lyrics you don’t know. Blake made a touching speech before ‘Dark of the Night’ which I thankfully got on video. They were so good that even though I didn’t know who they were, I still wanted videos of the performance, and a shirt to rep them. I ended up not stopping at their merch table on my way out, and highly regret it, especially since I’m pretty sure the band members were there signing autographs. But hopefully I get the chance to meet them before they get too big to hang out and meet fans. And I have no doubts that that day will come. Until then, I’m left stalking them on Instagram and patiently waiting for them to make their way back to Wisconsin.

Absolutely incredible experience, from start to finish! We had tickets for the meet & greet with the band, and checking in went very quick and easy. The staff at the venue, as well as the band’s people, were very well-organized and did a great job keeping everyone where they needed to be. It did feel a little rushed as we had items signed, with the production manager reminding us every five minutes that we had to keep things moving. But all the band members were extremely nice, and very friendly. It was awesome that they took questions, too, and gave us a special performance of How to Dance in Time. We loved the opening act, Longwave, and were EXTREMELY pleased with Blue October playing an incredible 19 songs!!! They sound just as good (if not better!) live as they do recorded, and hearing Justin talk about his struggles & triumphs, and share stories from his personal life, gives fans such a personal experience. Definitely worth every dollar spent-and hands-down, my favorite concert in the 40+ years I’ve been going to live performances. A must-see for any music lover!♥️

Hide Everything Sharp WAS ON THE SET LIST! Why didn't you play it?! I was dying to hear that one and you guys bailed after five songs. I get that it was Trophy Eyes' last day on the tour and everyone bro-ed out to give them extra time and see them off, but I came to see you guys and felt like your set was super short. Please come to Chicago and play a full show!
