Short set but enjoyable, they played well. Doraville and Junkin were highlights. Arlington Music Hall is a very nice venue and has some good legendary rock group concerts that are worth the trip. Great seats, extremely comfortable and roomy.

They were really good band and the lead singer for the band told some story how the songs came together that artist when they first started recording in the 1900 artists from Norfolk VA all the way up to Salt Lake City UT could here a song and his favorite song about being on the Road Bridge over Troubled water by Simon and Garfunkel was the lead singer favorite song being on the road and the technology has changed from the 1970s to 2026 I think it is like 50 years they just had 57 anniversary last year they play with two other bands Firefall and Orleans on this tour that 5 shows they do that and they have not played a second half of the concert set in a long time

Third of four acts for the evening. Again, only 10 minutes between acts. Played five songs in 30 minutes, all hits. Wish they had more time, as there were at least two other hits I would have liked to have heard. Rating a 4 because of limited intermission and short set.

Great concert. High energy and great upbeat songs. I saw the Atlanta Rhythm Section before and they were even better this time.

Sound system was great! To me, the lead singer seemed to have a sore throat or something as some of his notes were flat and he ran out of breath. Otherwise, the venue seats were comfy, crowd was very in to the music and it was a lovely evening.

They exceeded my expectation in their performance where I came to celebrate my mother's life/upcoming birthday memorialized by all those great guitar gifts and hot lyrics in ATLANTA back in their glory days. Neighborhood Theater books and brings in talent of Legendary acclaim, as well as up and coming heavy talented artists delighting their listeners, creating fans new and old. ALWAYS A STELLAR SHOW!!!! GREAT STAFF of Kind humans, too. 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎💯

Let's start with ARS. Their show was good. Their singer and only original member, Rodney Justo did a good job. He had some troubles hitting the high notes, but that is understandable as he is 79 years old. The set included all of their top hits and several songs I was not familiar with. The rest of the band was awesome and sounded like the original gang I saw in the late 70's when I was a teen at my first concert ever. As I understand it, this was Castle Boo's 'maiden voyage' with a show of this significance. The physical location was nice and there wasn't really a bad seat in the house, unless you were behind the sound/lighting mixer who had an awning above them blocking the view. They; however, had several issues... The gate opened late and there was a significant delay getting concert goers into the venue. They only had two people 'wanding' customers and everyone had to show an ID and sign a waiver form of liability. Perhaps the liability issue should be part of the ticket purchase? Also, the policy on bringing lawn chairs into the venue was not clear. Numerous people were not allowed to bring their chairs (elderly and disabled patrons). Their website should clarify what is/is not acceptable. It pissed off several customers ahead of us. The food/concession stands were minimally staffed. It took 45 minutes in line to purchase 2 beers and a bottle of water. They REALLY needed to have more employees on hand to handle the customers desires. It appeared that food/beverage services were contracted out and not the best quality. I understand this was their first outing with a concert of this magnitude. I hope it was a learning experience and they will learn how to handle future concert events. If they have another group I want to see, I am willing to return. Kev

Good show, the musicians amazing artists, the delays, the confusion before the show, the opener band not so great. Still will try castle boo again....ARS great classic rock, but it might be time for the lead singer to retire.

ARS was great. The lighting could have been better to see the band. It was hard to see the keyboard player. i didn't like sitting at picnic tables. I woud have preferred rows of chairs. Parking needs to be worked out better so people can get in on time. I will still be happy to see more concerts at Castle Boo though. There are always bugs to be worked out the first time.

They Blew Rome GA out !!!!!! Fantastic playing,so,so awsome,gonna see them again,,My favorite Band ( music) in my lifetime, thanks for the memories ❤️

It was a surreal experience, we had an amazing time, the guitar solo at the end of So Into You was absolutely jaw dropping! The band was great and I can’t wait to see them again sometime!

The whole event was awesome. The two opening bands were a great compliment to ARS. This is a great venue and opportunity to see really talented musicians. We had a great time!

Great show! This venue is the best!!! I would give 10 stars! It's so nice to go to a show and the artist actually play their own songs!!

Excellent set with very good sound in multi use auditorium, played for 90 minutes including a few tunes from Red Tape and Dogs Days. Hope to see them again soon.

“It was my first ‘Georgia Jam’, an all day indoor event (1 pm—11 with 11 bands). Having received a list of stage times from a prompter I stealthily arrived in time for just the bands I wanted to see: Atlanta Rhythm Section 5:00-5:50, Pat Travers Band 6:05-6:50, Michelle Malone 7:05-7:40, Drivin N Cryin 7:50-8:45, Mother’s Finest 8:55-9:45, Jefferson Starship 10:00-11:00. Groupon was my friend scoring a pair of lower bowl seats half price after which I upgraded myself to row 1 side-stage left! There was to be far too much happening to write a full rundown of everything transpiring on stage hence my abridged rendering centers around Pat Travers. 2022 has been good to me for seeing guitar heroes live: Joe Bonamassa, Neal Schon, Tab Benoit, now Pat Travers, and a Jeff Beck gig coming up in October. So what’s the tie-in with the Canadian rocker to Georgia? Striving to revive the Jam tradition of 70’s and 80’s gone by, organizers sought out Travers who had played the event in the past. PTB ended up penciled in post-organization replacing the Georgia Satellites. The trio took the stage late cutting their set time down from 45 to a mere 30 minutes, the shortest actual stage time of any band the entire day. ‘My name’s Pat Travers, this is my band, and we’re gonna kick your a**, Alright?!’ The kick-off song began, 1977’s ‘Rock ’n’ Roll Susie’, loud and driving. One would swear Pat was playing to a stadium of 50,000 people in lieu of a quarter filled hockey arena, the 68 year old performer exhibiting no lack of energy. He wasted no time swapping out guitars each song, the one Fender never left his person from backstage to backstage. His combo Strat and Marshall stack echoed classic rock tones that are a rarity to hear live now-a-days. He announced the title cut from his newest album ‘Art Of Time Travel’ released last Friday which was just that, a trip back in time. For a minute or two the guitar feed cut out on Pat and David Pastorius on bass (formerly Carl Palmer’s ELP) continued ad lib showing us how skilled he truly is, all the while Alex Petrosky held tight the rhythm on the kit. The final song was ‘Boom Boom, ‘Do ya feel like makin’ some noise? Yeah’, in which Pat showed off some windmill moves reminiscent of Pete Townsend and Pastorius even exhibited some hammer and tap on the four string! The man is so humble, ‘My name is Pat Travers’ he concluded the show, I’m like ‘Yeah you are!’. I overheard one ‘hammer head’ standing in front of me as Pat left the stage saying, ‘My (concert) list is now complete.’ You betcha I’d pay good money to see a full length show any time! Michelle Malone from Atlanta was next up compacting highlights of a 30 year career in a little over half an hour. The local crowd favorite noticed the clock, ‘I wonder how time I really have, is it 7 min? Do you wanna rock?’ Michele broke into a minute of Neil Young’s ‘Hey Hey, My My’. She had the whole Young sound package complete with harmonica. Next was Drivin N Cryin also Atlanta based and on the scene since ’86, one of those bands I’d likely have remained unfamiliar with if I had remained residing up North. ‘Thank you for inviting us to your house party’, the 61 year old Kevin Kinney’ called out. They put on a heck of a full hour long performance opening with their 1991 #15 hit ‘Fly Me Courageous’ dedicated to our military. I didn’t know quite what to expect but when they broke into some fine southern rock dual lead guitars about 3 songs in, I was definitely feeling it. Following was Georgia Hall Of Fame’s Mother’s Finest going on 20 minutes late but completing the full set.The 74’ish’ year old founder, Joyce ‘Baby Bean’ and vocalist ‘Doc’ Murdock’ (also a founding member from 1972) put on a lively show leaving the stage a hard act to follow. At one point original guitarist Moses Mo put on his own show lying down on his back like a dead man while Kennedy motioning the sign of the cross revived him back on foot. He then busted out into a segment of Wilson Pickett’s ‘Land Of 1000 Dances (the Na-na-na-na song) performing a solo with his teeth. Atlanta Rhythm Section, my 3rd time seeing them in a 14 month span began the evening delivering the goods (a 9 song set) with class despite guitarist David Anderson being sidelined with Covid. It was all okay, the band’s guitarist since ’76 Steve Stong made up for it with an extended solo on ‘So Into You’. Founding singer Rodney Justo cheered on the what he called a ‘small but mighty’ crowd, his vocal performance as good as ever. The headliner Jefferson Starship, my 6th favorite all time band (in all it’s variations) rounded off the evening. In my numerous times seeing them perform live it was my first time NOT seeing them front row floor, proof that there is indeed a first time for everything. I was actually excited to finally hear the music over the main system opposed to coming off the stage monitors. So what’s the tie in with the California band and Georgia? We’ll there really isn’t one except that GA native Mickey Thomas of ‘Starship’ (and a member of J.S. ‘79-‘84) was originally slated to play but due to a contracted gig at Sandy Springs GA he was prohibited to perform. Hence the substitution. Based on an Atlanta Rhythm Section post, I half expected Mickey Thomas to join in on stage which would’ve been a landmark event considering drummer Danny Baldwin once upon a time had rearranged his face altering the course for the two individual bands permanently. The band muscled through 11 hits one after another in the one hour set. Of note guru of the band David Freiberg celebrated his 84th birthday Wednesday and took the lead vocals on Runaway, With Your Love, and on Jane (which by the way he also wrote). David goes all the way back to Quicksilver Messenger Service and the latter years of Airplane and is a rock n roll legend in truth. I can not go without mentioning the tremendous job Cathy Richardson did on vocals (as she has the last 14 years, Slick being a tough act to follow), and Jude Gold one of my favorite guitarists to see Live. Their roadie ’Todd’ (an audience favorite) made a typical appearance on stage, Michele & I led the chant: ’Todd, Todd, TODD, TODD!’ ‘Somebody To Love’ was the final song, everyone on their feet. Eleven-Thirty concluded the event, only a half hour over schedule even after all the sets and stage turns, that’s pretty amazing. All in all, in my opinion the event was a success, let’s hope this evening ignited a new fire overall in the Jam’s legacy. I know I’ll be looking forward to 2023’s line-up!” by DAve (Concert #692)

You could hardly tell they were down a guitarist. Double leads were handled with keyboard. Nice long jams to So In to You & Homesick.

ARS are hot! Great musicians can still do those songs from decades back with crowd pleasing enthusiasm and energy and these are them. AsheJam was the perfect place to see them play and the on an off rain held off for the performance. Standing immediate side stage (for me) made the set all that much sweeter!

Great show by Atlanta Rhythm Section.The band just knocked off hit after hit and mixed in some older songs too with no breaks . Im so glad we had seats right up front where we could see that nice finger work on the guitars and of course the bass too. A really nice part was when Dave Anderson on guitar and the band slipped in part of a RUSH song for a tribute to Neil Peart. (RIP). I highly recommend going to see these guys! Shoutout to the folks at River Cree who made it an extra special night.(Cole M. -ELP)
