Kodak Center

This concert was amazing! I have never seen Crowder live and what an experience. Peter Mayberry started the evening with an amazing set! Seph Schleuter came up next, I’ve seen him one other time and was really looking forward to seeing him again. He didn’t disappoint! I love his music and turn it on when I need a reminder of God’s grace and love. Then came Crowder. Note I’d been warned, you never know what Crowder you’re going to get, hillbilly, country, rock I think we had a little of all 3 with some worship added in and it made for an amazing night. I’ve never seen someone get handed guitar after guitar after guitar and just keep going the way he did. His rendition of Amazing Grace was so beautiful! I thought I had worshipped in church that morning, but wow nothing prepared me for the worship we had Sunday night! Amazing!!!

Sunday night at the Kodak Center felt less like a concert and more like a communion service with a really good sound system. Patrick Mayberry opened the evening with a warmth that immediately disarmed the room. He's the kind of artist that makes you feel like you've known him for years within the first two songs — "Lead On Good Shepherd" hit differently in a live setting, the kind of song that sounds like a prayer whether you're singing it in a sanctuary or a theater. Seph Schlueter followed and honestly might have been the surprise of the night. His voice carries this unforced sincerity that doesn't try to impress you — it just lands. "Counting My Blessings" was a standout, and the crowd responded like they'd been holding those words in their chest all week waiting for permission to let them out. Then Crowder. There's genuinely no one like him in Christian music right now. He walked out and immediately reminded everyone to "get swampy," which is both ridiculous and exactly what you needed to hear. The Exile material sounded massive in that room — theatrical, textured, and somehow still deeply personal. But the moments when the production stripped back and it was just his voice and the crowd singing? Those were the moments you don't forget. The theater setting was the right call for this tour. It wasn't stadium spectacle — it was intimate and intentional, the kind of night where you leave feeling less like you attended a show and more like you participated in something. As someone who thinks about worship production constantly, it was hard not to notice how well each artist's set was mixed — clean low end, vocals sitting right on top, nothing fighting. Whoever was on that board had a good night. Worth every minute of the drive from Buffalo.

Brian is a class act. Genuine laughs. I’ve seen him in north west western New York, and western east central New York. Hilarity both times. All of the stars.

OMG!!!!!!! He was absolutely fantastic. His band was also awesome!!!!! We could not believe how long he played. It was fabulous. The place was sold out and I think that he was maybe a little shocked. He is my very favorite and will be until the end of time. Thank you Vince for a wonderful concert. LOVE YOU MUCH

My experience, as with previous experiences seeing Derek Hough previously, it was truly magical. Derek Hough is the real deal. He makes you feel like you are the only person in the room when he makes those quick connections on stages or in the crowd. He gives so much heart to his craft. I highly recommend the show and the VIP packages. I had the Q&A package and was able to speak to him directly and thank him for the joy he is bringing me-personally, during what is often a difficult time of year for many. Thank you Derek! xoxo

It was wonderful to see Lindsey Sterling a second time. She is a uniquely gifted musician who truly loves music and spreading the joy of it. Thanks for being you

The Venue is very nice, upholstered seating great acoustics and offering food, and drinks NA and alcohol. The show was good.... a bit short for the price. could of been longer with an intermission. some of the audience interaction was so,so.

Billy Bragg is an amazing entertainer, and this show was no exception. Alongside his spot-on guitar and vocals, he delivers bright, relevant, entertaining perspectives on the state of the world and our place in it and how we grow and change over time. (If you are political conservative, you probably already know this artist is not for you unless you are ready for the conversation.) He took the time to reflect on his previous visits to our town - it seems like he always does his homework to deliver a performance that is really for that specific audience at that specific time and place. Unlike so many performers who (and I don't blame them) can hardly remember where they are. What an absolute pleasure to enjoy newer songs and classics from an artists who is truly present with you as he performs. (PS Cheers to Billy for including the Kirsty MacColl verse of A New England. As an audience, we were so horrible at singing along to the chorus that it will always be a delightful memory for me. And RIP Kirsty.)

Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit put on a fantastic show at the Kodak Theater in Rochester. He played songs from several albums with a concentration on his current release, 'Weathervanes' . It was a great Tuesday night!

I'm sure it was great, hence the five stars, but I didn't have tickets and didn't go. Why the survey, bandsintown?

AJ was great. Particularly the stories he told both about Jim and other parts of his life. Would have liked more of AJs music but I get it

Music was so good… couldn’t believe how wonderful it all sounded and was such a great show with Ray and 2 band mates

Best and most memorable concert ever !!!! I hope to see him again ! The whole "Happy Together" lineup was just unbelievably FANTASTIC !!!

Artist was great. I like the venue but one thing I don`t like about it is the bathrooms are far away from the concert area.

I had seen AMERICA years ago, but I couldn’t resist seeing them again . Great show at a great venue! Rock On 🤘

I loved the acoustic set both bands did, it was a wonderful change of pace. I still enjoy the usual music, but having a new way to love the music I play on repeat already was amazing. Can’t wait till you guys come to Central NY again!

Was amazing. Acoustic was very different but also awesome. Wage war was amazing and the Kodak center was really nice too

I was so excited to see this show. I have loved Randy's videos. I thoroughly enjoyed attending an event with others who enjoyed Randy's video as much as I did. There are two things that I think would improve the show. First, Randy started a half hour late. There was no apology or explanation why. That's rude. Secondly, Randy's videos and humor are all about current topics. I think the show needs to be updated. This past summer had so many monumental political policies put in place - both good and bad - and to not address those made the show feel a bit dated. One of my favorite parts of the show was when Randy took questions from the audience. Seeing an unscripted Randy made him feel very relatable and personable. Overall, I'm glad I went to the show. Randy was such a life saver during Covid. I loved hearing from someone who was just as aghast as I was with what was happening in DC. And, our family are huge Barbra fans and I always feel like I can sit down and have a coffee with anyone who loves her as much as we do.

Jack and his Dad were super. I can't believe they only gave them 25 minutes. I drove from Buffalo to see Jack... Good to see him in the area again. The crowd loved him.

Opener Tom Hambridge is really talented and was a real entertaining warm up for Buddy. Buddy is still at the top of his game. He conversed with the audience between each song and really created a great vibe in which to pick up what he was laying down. See him while you can.He still has an attention grabbing voice and he's pretty much the last of a legendary group of blues playing masters .
