This was a show that included THE PINEAPPLE THEIF.
The show was a very nice live performance of many new tunes and old favorites. The band with Gavin Harrison has been touring North America after Europe. I have seen them in Europe numerous times. The mixing was very much centered on the drums. At times they were louder than the guitars or keyboards; this was not very conducive to the theme and ambiance of the song. They played for two hours and had numerous songs for an encore. Bruce connected with the audience as did Gavin. The band is tight.
The only downside was just how many people wanted to see them. Got in line half an hour before the show started, line was backed up a good 30 to 40 minutes, and the venue was already packed.
That said, they played the entirety of the album and another 20 or 25 minutes besides, they were obviously all having a great time, and we did too. Would absolutely do it again
This was the single best concert experience of my adult life. I’ve wanted to see them for 36 years. They still got it, that’s for sure. More energy than bands half their age. Sounded incredible. Audience was electrified.
So grateful to the band for doing this tour, which was clearly done out of love for the fans. Thank you, Front 242!
OMG!!!
30 years of waiting to finally see them in the flesh... Countless times something happened to cancel my chance - but not this night!!!! 😃
The Granada Theater was clean, welcoming, and well prepared for the concert.
Stabbing Westward was everything I dreamed them to be and more. I even got to chat with Chris for a few minutes after the show 💜.
I took my 16 year old daughter and she had a blast, too.
I'm going to make sure I see them again, for sure! I'm still in awe the day after.
Dead by April are the most down to earth band i’ve had the pleasure of meeting, they are real people, not some fake rock stars, and truly care about their fans and what they think. said hi to them as we were leaving the same restaurant they were eating in before the show. then when we got to the meet and greet, they were very open and glad to see everyone, taking the time to talk one on one with all of us, and signing anything we wanted signed (one little boy brought his nerf guns to be signed, and his mom painted a painting for them to keep) very humble and appreciative of their fans. then the concert itself, the band was so happy to play for us and was feeding off the crowd’s energy, the set was tight, and very well played, the only glitch was Pontus’ wireless mic was having connection issues and wasn’t picking up all of his vocals. other than that, and the fact that the original opening band bailed, and the replacement band did not fit the bill at all, it was one of the best shows i’ve seen, and i’ve been to over 100 (i’m almost 60 lol) if they ever come back to the US, i’ll drive to the closest place they play no matter where it is (this show was 250 mile from home) Thank you Dead by April, you guys rock!
The Wilder Blue are the best live band around.
I will say that I enjoyed the Granda show more than any venue I’ve been to in Dallas. Assigned seats. Sundown next door was delicious. Aisles clearly marked to stay clear for easy access in and out to bar and bathroom. Wow.
I wish The Wilder Blue would play there every week.
It was great to jump up, acknowledge who he is, and meet the singer outside of the venue as he was walking by- and w/o using any type of concern about the fact that "he's the singer of Decapitated" in order to be a dick, he just stopped and shook my hand. as a grateful man, performing for a grateful audience member like me, I'm having a hard time deciding which either moment in my life compares to what I experienced. with that show, sound, energy, and ability to shake hands as a fan, I guess I am gonna come back again, and again. \m/
I've been to many concerts over the last 25 years and have seen numerous extremely talented artist including Jason Mraz, Susan Tedeshi, Tina Turner, Lenny Kravitz and others. I can say with complete conviction that the energy, enthusiasm, audiencing engagement and pure joy with which Grace Potter perform last night at the Granada theater is unraveled by any show I have experienced in my lifetime. This woman truly is gifted and a treasure to behold live. May God bless you. Grace and keep doing what you do so well. I hope to see you again someday.
It was a completely awesome experience my daughter got the “MEGA VIP” Meet and greet package and Zakk Wylde was so cool to her made us feel like family she got the guitar he played on stage that night and he even brought her up on stage at the end to close the show. Totally awesome class act. Completely made my daughter’s Christmas gift unforgettable. Thank you Zakk, Jo, & Goose!
Small venue made it that much cooler. He walked through the crowd, fist bumped my boyfriend and played up top in the VIP area for a bit then came down again where the crowd was on the main floor. The sound was insane at the granada, I thought the speakers would've exploded! It was epic! We enjoyed Native Howl as well they were an amazing sound and with a banjo their bluegrass/thrash metal rock music was so cool!
Amazing band and even more amazing people. They absolutely love their fan base and even came out front after the show to meet with fans! Their show was top notch (top 3 shows I’ve ever been to) can’t wait for them to come back to Dallas or be in the same city I’m in when I’m on the road! 10 out of 10 rock shows you have to see!!
My daughter and her best friend had so much fun at this concert. Made new friends in line waiting to get in. Thank you for these lovely memories. Thank you Bandsintown for allowing us to get tickets at the price they were meant to be. It meant we could have that extra money to get them a t-shirt and poster for them to have!
The band was great! It was our 2nd time to visit the Granada Theater and the last time we had to stand for 3 hours. We almost had to crawl to the car it hurt so bad. This time we managed to get seats in the balcony and oh what a difference. The show was a blast and we had a great time. Can't wait to go back again for another show!
Machine Head was the bomb. Hope to see them again next time they roll through Dallas. So amazing to see them play an incredibly long set with such energy and ferocity! Other bands should take a look at these guys and learn how to do a show! Truly impressive masters of metal!! The Granada is and always has been a favorite intimate venue of mine. I wish other music venues would take the concept of a "higher than normal raised stage" and "sectioned rows with rails and counters more seriously. At least this way you're not getting squished and trampled and always have a great view of the stage. Very enjoyable experience.
This was beyond great. I discovered victor in the early 2000s and as a young bass player, he has always been a huge influence to me. I was so glad almost 20 years later I finally got to see him in person! Not only that but it made my year that him, Steve Bailey, and Derico Watson hung out to meet and greet their fans and sign autographs. Amazing talent, some great laughs listening to Victor and Steve's banter on stage. Great crowd interaction. I really hope to see them again in the future.
Enjoyed the evening !! Dalton Domino opened the show. He was witty, and displayed his talent through a set of very personal music.
Lee Roy Parnell put on a great show. He was engaged with the audience and played a number of his hits, as well as some songs off of his latest album. Lee Roy is a “musician’s musician”, and played with all his might.
The Granada Theater is a very good venue. Seating was as good and the acoustics were great for Domino’s acoustic set as well as Lee Roy’s full band.
We were a party of five and none of us were disappointed.
Not sure what the motivation was. Could have been, thrilled to watch his kids perform a great show as the opening act. Could have been, being able to perform for his wife. Could have been, retaking ownership of his music again. It made for a memorable night for us fans to see a genuinely good human be able to practice his craft with his family and band mates, and to do it with humility, grace and humor made the evening pass to fast.
For his second Dallas performance in a year, Ruston Kelly was a master of his reflective and haunting lyrics and skill command of three instruments. In contrast to the often heavy subject matter of his songs, his stage presence radiates the joy that comes with finding the redemption he speaks about in his songs. It’s always truly a joy to hear his soulful voice with his talented band - with his father’s masterful steel guitar playing. Ruston is soaring with a flock that highlight the best in songwriting, emotion, and honesty in music.
Beautiful as always. But the Dallas crowd SUCKED. Clearly KXT had given away a bunch of tix and it seemed like a third of the audience left within 20 minutes. Cat Power is a sonically dynamic band. So one song can start out quietly and get loud and harsh by the end. So listening carefully and attentively is rewarding. The Dallas crowd just jabbered through everything. At one point some glowing balloons were being tossed about. This always tells me the crowd is more into themselves than the band. Bravo to Chan daring them to pop the idiotic balloons. Anyhow she was transcendent and poetic. A muse if there ever was one. I am sure she would have preferred a half full house of fans than a full house of know nothings. I loved her performance and her voice has held up extremely well. Go see her when you can and shut up and listen. You might learn something.
