Just when you think Starset can't top the last performance they go and blow that last one away! Their stage presence mixed with the movie, stage setup, and story line are beyond amazing! Plus the music and lyrics are phenomenal! This was my 4th time seeing them and I don't plan on missing any future tours. I hope they come back soon and I can't wait to see what they come up with next! I'm definitely a fan for life!
First off, I say Zakk one of the best guitarist ever! Third time I seen him this year in three different bands including BLS, Pantera and now Zakk Sabbath! 2nd time I met him this year, such a nice guy! Black Sabbath one of my favorites bands and I'm so sad I never got to see them but Zakk Sabbath comes so close, they had a killer setlist with Zakk doing 10 minutes guitar solos to alot of songs! So insane!🤘🤘🤘
Wolfie most definitely is a chip off the old block! While we know there will never be another Edward, his progeny is doing him SO PROUD! Great show as expected, this band is so tight and such great players. Wolf's voice is just as good live as recorded and the songs were spot on. Wish they could have played another hour. Second time seeing Mammoth, but the first a a headliner, and they killed it! 🤘🤘
Amazing show!!!! I got to be right up front and enjoy every bit of it!! I got to meet Nita Strauss and get autographs, it was so cool! Nita is an amazing guitarist, she can really rock! Wolfgang was on point and rocked the venue! The guitarist was so friendly and gave me a pick and the setlist, I even traded someone for a pick that wolfie used! Best night ever!! If you get the chance to see Mammoth WVH please do, you won’t regret it!
I was really looking forward to this show. I have always loved the tones and clarity on their albums and videos but the sound for this show was horrible. I don't know if it is the band fault or the venue. Probably the venue but I have been there for other concerts and the sound was great. The look of the show was great, just wish I could hear the vocals and guitar with crisp drums. I hope to see them again sometime at a different venue and hope for a better sound system.
Hand down an amazing concert. They sounded great and clean. Instrumental were pitch and blended well. Did not disappoint. My daughter said it was like being in a rave and metal show. Everyone with me ARE impressed as they had no clue who EC were. They do now. Please come make another bootleg tour in Portland again. My German brothers, thank you in uniting people!
Well, maybe I'm ignorant and "old" but I'm still a rocker, if you will. It has been a while since I've been to a concert, but not so long that I can't appreciate instrument's that are played well, and good lyrics. Again, maybe this is my fault for attending a concert at a small venue, I don't know. What I do know is that every band I listened to that night, turned the volume up for the bass and the drums so high I felt like I was waaay too close to the fireworks! I could barely/not hear the
other instrument's that looked like they were being played. The bass hits were percussive in my chest and so frequent I felt like someone was trying to break up my kidney stones from the outside! Seriously, that crap was too loud (and yes I was wearing hearing protection). When Clutch finally played my favorite song, I could barely understand or hear the lyrics. A whole bunch of people damaged their hearing that night... I've got some friends and family members who damaged their hearing and we all suffer now. They do because they can't hear and we do because it's so frustrating to try and talk to them. I like Clutch and their music, just not in a venue like the Roseland theater, and definitely not so loud.
It was one of the best nights of my life! Sometimes you worry you're bothering the rest of the crowd with your singing and dancing, and then there are concerts like this one where everyone in that room is on exactly the same high you are and the musicians can bring magic to life.
K.flay was everything I could hope for! Talented, honest, and real. Her voice was the same on stage as it is on the studio recording and she owned that stage!
Suki was incredible as always and I loved that her guitarist opened he was amazing too. I give this concert a three because the people in the crowd were very disrespectful. The people behind me kept screaming as loud as they could (which would have been somewhat ok, but it was CONSTANT), and most people just didn’t understand proper concert etiquette. Also, the audio was not the best. I feel like many of the instruments over powered Suki’s voice and made it hard to hear her.
An amazing performance from all the bands. My personal favorites were Obituary and Amon Amarth. Obituary played a short set but surprised me when they played their version of Celtic Frost's "Circle of the Tyrants". Amon Amarth were epic and brutal at the same time. I especially loved when a large portion of the crowd including myself got down to row along to their song "Out your back into the oar". One of the most fun shows I've been to that's for sure!
Trivium killed it last night! They played an amazing set and kept the crowd going! It has been a long time since I have been to a concert with such energy. I wasn’t a fan of a couple of the bands that were supporting them but that is just personal preference and won’t talk bad about any of them. They all did play their hearts out for us and definitely gave us our moneys worth. When and if Trivium comes back, especially as a headliner, I will be seeing them again and maybe doing a meet and greet if it is offered. Thanks again Trivium for the amazing performance and awesome stage set up. I am a fan for life.
The bands was great as ALWAYS (I’ve seen them 5 times!). Love their energy.
The venue was just ok. Stage is on small side so the tank prop took a lot of room. The sounds however was disappointing. I’ve watch many shows here and I know they can have a good sound. The sound was muffled, base too boomy so hard to pick out mid and high range frequencies. It was poor for the opening band too (Epica).
the show in itself was good. the band before the headlining band Arch Enemy was Behemoth and they sounded perfect, as close to the album as possible but Arch Enemy sounded "muddy" . thier harmonies were 100% perfect, they were heavy as fuck, but it all just sounded muddy ( i konw i said this already but its the only way i can exain it.
i know sometimes it isnt the bands fault as it maybe because of house sound.
without a doubt ill see them again.
Manson, music, murder. In no particular order. For no particular reason. Except for the "music" part. And play music, Uncle Acid and The Deadbeats do! Them boys shore do know their ways 'round an instrument; with that fuzzy drone sound that just gets in your bones. Almost like aural heroin. And let me tell ya, firsthand, if you're already ON opiates while listening to them? Hoo-whee! good luck keepin' them eyes open and balance upright.
I've been waiting for this show ever since it was announced. I went into the show being a huge fan of Manchester and needing something of a cathartic experience to let go of the past year or two. I got all of that and more. The new album is gorgeous and nearly every one of my favorite tracks from the bands history were played tonight. Michigander and Foxing were also so impressive. I will see each separately should they come back to town. Both are now added to my spotify rotation. Amazing show and thank you. ❤
Post a memory? Okay, I've seen this wonderful group of talented musicians like five times, the first time was in Salem, Or. @ Corbin College. Alien Youth Tour. Driving down the road and I hear the first few notes of You Are My Hope and tears come as I think of my son who was with me at the time. I wanted to go to this show so bad and show support but I would have had to buy multiple tickets. I am still so bummed out. Especially getting to see them in a small venue!
Whiskey Myers was awesome. They play hard and fast and clearly had a blast doing it. I’ll go see them again when they come back through town, no question. They added 3-4 minutes to some of their best songs going on runs and jamming. Five stars for their effort and performance. Two stars for the venue. Venue staff was great, but the mics, acoustic balance and lights all sucked. Cody Cannon couldn’t get more that a few inches away from the lead mic before his voice would completely cut out. John Jeffers and Cody Tate would be running licks together up front, with one spotlighted and the other completely in the dark. Acoustic guitar, harmonica and subtler parts of the performance could barely be heard.
They're as tight as ever. Went on late started at 10, done by 11:30. Solid mix of old songs from '01-present with 7 of their tracks coming from Palms. Literally only complaint was the setlist needs to grow. Their catalog of songs is so cast that they need to bust out 2 hour shows regularly to get a full feel but it's always fulfilling to see Thrice live. Even got to meet Dustin and get his autograph on shirt and disc after!
The Distillers lived up to there reputation in every way. They were there for the crowd and all of us in the crowd at Roseland cheered on their reunion show as if they have always been with us. They came to play as they are known to do. The Distillers show was the best show I have ever seen, based on letting the music and the heartfelt emotions do the talking. They didn’t need any special effects to tell us they are back with us again! Andy “Break out” Granelli on the drums, never seems to show any fatigue. He is ever the powerful, presence that kept the band on tempo and propelled them onward all night long. He was the best drummer for this job of a reunion, for he is the best punk drummer I have ever seen. We wouldn’t let them get away without an encore from writer Brody Dalle, lead vocals, and guitar, and the band’s main song writer, Andy Granelli, on drums, Ryan Sinn on electric bass guitar ,and Tony Bevilacqua on lead guitar. What perfect choices to get the real peak powers of the Distillers of the 2nd and 3rd albums back together again! It looked liked one happy musical family reunion to me. It was a night I will never forget. Thank you Bands in Town.
Thank you Distillers!

Mick Jagger ain’t got nothing on Luke Pritchard. Pritchard rocked the hell outta the place. Nunez and Denton laid the framework, drove the beat with masterful precision and Harris’ riffs were spot on. This is smart poppy rock and roll, with enough bluesy heart to bring to life music that will stand the test of time. We will still be listening to the Kooks 40 years from now and hopefully they are still making new music!
