Benchmark International Arena

Second time seeing a Journey in two years. Freedom tour and now Final Frontier. The show was very good. The sound and vocals were great. I feel some of the filler lesser known tracks could have been better selected I would have liked to hear sweet and simple and send her my love and the party is over. Regardless Arneil 's voice held up well with plenty of breaks throughout the show. He interacted great with the crowd even getting off stage and signing autographs. The rest of the band could have interacted with the audience more I think. The keyboard player. Jason Derlatka does a great job and has a great voice . If you're a journey fan it's a must see tour. I will say however it's sad to know about the ongoing disputes between Cain and Schon and the personal issues affecting Arnel. They owe more gratitude to him and consideration. I guess we shall see if this is really goodbye or what comes next. Great night overall !

We went to a DC show in January so hard to compare. Happy to see Joanna there again. Ashley McBryde did great though we either missed two songs I like best or she didn’t play them. Love that Eric brought her back out to sing later on. It would have been cool to see him perform devil went down to Georgia right before Johnny for a full circle moment. Either way I LOVE that song. Great entertainer as always. Thank you! Come to Orlando next time please!!!

The event—Ghost did not disappoint! The band, the production, the sound quality, the stage, everything was amazing. They were very engaging, which I appreciate because of the no-phone policy of the tour. There was rarely a break between songs or instrumentals. I think that the background screen was a huge update from their background from last tour. I would 10/10 see them again, even if I have to fly somewhere. The venue—Amalie Arena is amazing, beautiful, and always well-kept. I will say that the line to get in was very long, and the outdoor workers that scan tickets or gave out pouches were sweating, and because there was a no phone policy inside the arena, besides I. designated areas, it was kind of annoying that we had to ask random people what time it was prior to the start time lol. All of the venue employees were incredibly nice, directing us somewhere to go and answering questions.

Cyndi was absolutely amazing!!! What a wonderful night. Powerhouse singer. I feel so lucky to see her farwell tour. She put on a great show. Love the DJ Tracy, very cool to have someone entertain while waiitng for the show. Emily was awesome. What a great talent with a beautiful voice. The venue was nice, been to the arena several times for concerts. Despite only being one area to buy merchandise (that I knew of) the line went quick.

The concert was amazing! Phil Wickham is my all time favorite Christian artist and I was so excited to be able to see him live in concert! Phil and Brandon Lake sang a lot of their songs together and did such a great job - they sing so well together! I praise God that I got the opportunity to spend such a great evening worshiping Jesus along with other believers! If you get a chance to go see them in concert, GO, you will not be disappointed!

She Opened with all the energy she closed with! She is the 1 every other artist tries to shot for. Does it matter a 42y/o from Harlem can be the Queen of so much music, artistry and beauty if so many different genres? I like everyone else who hear and sees her is field with energy and spirit that moves you like few can, but the Super Stars✨⭐️🌟💫 Setlist Falling New Day Love Looks Better Limitedness You Don’t Know My Name Teenage Love Affair Karma Try Sleeping With A Broken Heart Un-Thinkable (I’m Ready) Underdog Blended Family (What You Do For Love) Holy War Come For Me (Unlocked?)

The concert was excellent!! Joan Jett warmed up the crowd before Bryan Adams came on stage. There was a cool full-sized car floating above the crowd and being remote controlled. It had working headlights and taillights. It appeared to be a replica of the car on the front of his new Album "So Happy it Hurts" and had those words spelled out on it and his name on the other side. Bryan Adams was in a very happy mood. Even veering from his original set-list and taking a request or two. He seemed to be having as much fun as the audience was. He was zipping across the stage from one end to the other acting like a man half his age! (He is 63 years old) So much energy and non-stop singing. Going at points from one song to the next as the last note played on the previous song. He was joking with the audience and interacting with fans. Great music, songs, performance!! Loved it and him also!!

It. Was. Amazing! Where to even start? First was Nile Rodgers and Chic and I cannot express how much of an energetic and quality show that was! Their part had so much energy to it that I feared to run out steam for the rest of the concert. It’s incredible the talent Rodgers has and his influence in the music industry. Then came Bastille which I wasn’t too familiar with but had a great time when they were on stage. Knew a lot more of their songs than I thought and they were an incredible live performance. Then came the boys! They are truly at their best. I saw them in National Harbor in 2017 and while they were great as always then, last night they were a hundred times better. The energy. The performance. The playlist. The tech on the show. The audience interaction. I’ve never seen palpitating so much positive energy! LeBon is always a showman and of course the rest of the band is at their prime. I can honestly say it was one of the best nights and shows of my life.

I had seen them before I think 5 years ago in LA and before that in San jose. They were so good in San Jose that I saw them the next day. I was a little disappointed they didn't sing more balance to hear their harmonies, but maybe they're getting older and it's harder. This is the best concert I have ever been to. They had 15 semis and brought their own lights and sound, which is why the tickets were a little more. I had to go see them again, cuz this might be their last show.

Absolutely, positively one of the most exciting and new artists around! They were so very professional, spot on, amazing stage set up!! So glad I had the experience of seeing them for the very first time. I've been a big time fan since I first heard of them. Can't wait to see where the guys go and what more they will accomplish in the future. They are headed for greatness and success! Their performance was spot on and their set list so perfect! The audience was all so very excited and energized to see them perform! They far exceeded what many expected! They almost had a complete sell out at Amalie Arena in Tampa, FL tonight. Yes, these guys are going to be doing incredible things and creating much more music that us fans will all buy for sure to add to our current collection! Great new group on the scene. And they deserve every bit of praise they receive. Very tight knit group and so welcoming to their fans! I couldn't have asked for anything more than they gave us at tonight's show! These 4 guys are headed to the Big Time and rightfully so after reading about how they became a group in the first place. Much closeness and love exists within them!!

My main concern was the seating and blocked view. We were surprised when we arrived, after spending nearly $900.00 for prime seats, and to have a blocked view was very disappointing. We were not aware that an elevated Ole Red bar would be in front of our seats. We could have been okay if there was NOT a big stage spotlight right in our view, as well as the bar. Also, the bartender constantly blocked our view while talking with the people sitting at the bar. Needless to say, we were very upset with our seats, as we specifically chose these seats as they appeared to be mid stage with no obstructions, close 3rd row seats…..NOT! Having said that, the concert, itself was outstanding! Please not that we were at the Jacksonville concert on March 2, 2023.

These guys never disappoint! I've seen them 4 times, at Winter Jam when they only had 3 songs on a CD, at a church concert in 2014 and twice at Amalie--Burn the Ships and this Christmas show. Just phenomenal every time. The energy, sincerity and love that pour out of this group move me to tears and have me dancing in the aisles. The show is always on point, spectacular lighting, theatrical percussion, and thoughtful stage production that includes the entire audience. Even if your in the nose bleeds, you feel as if they are performing just for you! But let me clear, they make it well known they are performing for the glory of God!! He has blessed this family beyond measure and they will in turn bless you!

Sound quality at Amelie Arena always s***s. It's like listening to your music through a speaker draped in a wet towel. Fortunately, Iron Maiden are such amazing performers that the overall show quality made up for the poor acoustics in the arena. The visual spectacle and amazing stage and prop usage for each song made the whole show a multisensory experience! My wife, who has never been a huge Maiden fan and didn't know most of the songs even said it was one of the best concerts she had ever seen. Outstanding show!

Excellent show! Jane’s Addiction sounded like they haven’t aged in 25 years. Then the Pumpkins came on and blew it up!!! Absolutely incredible! We saw the Shiny and Oh So Bright tour 3 years ago and it was the best concert I’ve ever been to! This set list wasn’t as long, but had many amazing songs in it, including at least 3 from the new album, ATUM. SP played Empires, Beguiled, and Neophyte from ATUM. It’s always wonderful to see SP and anytime I can, I will!

Oh man. So preface this by saying huge fan of both Brendon and panic! Amazing vocalist probably the best modern vocalist. But this album doesn’t feel like panic at the disco. It kinda falls flat. Sounds amazing live just like record but the music itself just doesn’t connect. There was a notable shift in crowd engagement between panic’s sets. The audience came alive for the older songs and the previous album but for viva los vengeance they seemed to just be waiting for The final set with the old songs again. Interest for VLV was low. It was a barrage of screaming and endless just vocal register flexing. Again amazing artist but the music had more character as a band. Hopefully he’ll figure out which direction he’s going in. I’ll stay along for the journey as a long time fan and Stan.

There really isn't much to say,,, as usual Cheap Trick put on an amazing show. Robin sings great as ever,, although it was a little hard to hear him sing over the music, great selection of songs, no complaints. Rod Stewart is still s**y as ever & can still sing well after all these years. I just wish he would have played some more of his own songs instead of opening the show with someone elses song,, & as much as I think that the backup singers have amazing singing skills,,, I just wish Rod sang some of the songs that he usually doesn't sing live like 'Infatuation,, Tonight I'm Yours,, " Lost In You",, etc.. instead of having the backup singers sing other people's songs while he changed his clothes.. Other than that, it was a fabulous show.

He was fabulous. Engaged fully with the audience. His band were composed of some of the finest musicians I have heard. The lights/staging was top notch - just enough to add excitement without detracting from the gorgeous and wide-ranging voice of MB. After all, he sang songs from Elvis and Frank! I cannot wait to see him again. Also, and this is very significant, our seats, even with all the outrageous service fees tacked on, were still very competitive with similar ranked artists.

Very good show. Jeff was great and surrounded himself with some phenomenal musicians and singers. One of the best moments was when he brought out Dhani Harrison and did a fantastic cover of "Handle With Care" by the Traveling Wilburys. Dhani looks and sounds so much like his father, George that it's uncanny! I was disappointed that they didn't perform "Strange Magic ", "Fire On High", or "Can't Get It Out Of My Head" and $17.50 for a tall boy of Budweiser is outrageous. But overall it was a very entertaining experience.

I've been a huge fan since I was a kid in the late 70s. I was blessed to finally see him live in 2017 in Glasgow, Scotland for the first time. This show was something I thought would never happen- to see Jeff Lynne right here in Tampa. Everything was top-notch. The band sounded great, Jeff's voice sounded amazing, especially for a man of 71! The songs are all masterful pieces of pop perfection, and the video/laser/light show was icing on the cake.

Fleetwood Mac left nothing out if you can imagine the best concert you have ever been to. This one would be in the top 10. My mom and I attended a meet and greet with Mick Fleetwood and he was so down to earth he even kissed my mom on the lips and was so gracious to all 27 of us answering all of our questions for almost an hour after giving us a rundown on some of the bands history. All in all we had a wonderful experience at the Amalie Arena.
