I don't do a lot of stand-up because it hasn't been something I enjoyed. However, I stumbled across Nate Jackson on Facebook Reels and he made me laugh out loud. So when I saw he was coming to town a coworker and I decided to check him out. It was well worth the price I laughed all evening long.
Jon Batiste is the most creative and energetic musician I have ever seen. He plays from his heart and soul and connects to everyone in the audience. He is the most beautiful human being inside and out. Jon did not disappoint.
The show was AMAZING!!! My daughter and I did not stop laughing the entire time! Beyond being hilarious, Iliza is thought-proking - especially regarding women's attitudes about each other, and about our own looks, our bodies, our place in society. Opening act was also fantastic - we'll watch for his Netflix special as well as Iliza's new one....all this and she is what? About 6 - 7 months pregnant?! I'd like to see any male comedian do what she did - while making a brand new human!!
YO! That Shit was EPIC! I Had never been to a hip hop show before but have been listening to Cypress since 96 so I knew it was gonna be good but that was an absolute masterpiece imo. And the dude on the cello bass used to play for Fear Factory back in the day so there's that. Hope I can find this on YT or somewhere, oh and sen dog is the nicest dude ever!
This was my 4Th Time seeing Derek perform and he never disappoints!!! It was an Amazing performance by him and his lovely Bride, and his amazing Cast Members. I will watch him again when he decides to go on Tour in the near future. I was at the Show in Eugene!
THANKS!!!!!
Little Feats performance was flawless. These musicians work so well together and made this concert so much fun to attend.
Dirty Dozen Brass Band has such a great sound. Utilizing a tuba as a bass is so unique and it works. The vocals are spot on and the musicians are so synced to each other. Wonderful to listen to.
Incredible show from Liam's opening act to the last song of Crowded House. These guys delivered big. So great to hear all of these fabulous songs live again. Thanks for putting Portland on your list of cities to visit. Won't forget this one, very special.
Love this band. Concert was just OK. Not a fan of the children of artists being the opener. Or waiting to play until 9pm on a weeknight. “An evening” with Crowded House would have been nicer. Choice of songs drew heavily from first album, but nice overall. Performance was good. Sound was good.
Great intimate venue which provides amazing acoustics! The band was incredible and was actually far better then expected! One of the best shows I have seen in a long time! The whole band is just amazing, loved the focus on the guitars solos! Incredible sting voice… I had goosebumps for multiple songs!!
Ringo and his All Starr Band did not disappoint! Each member is a superstar in his own right. The performance was so much fun. Ringo tested positive for Covid again (bummer) so I consider myself lucky to have seen him. I still have a hard time believing he is 82. He is incredible!
It isn’t just a show it’s an experience. Saw two shows on the tour already, Greek in LA and Arlene Schnitzer in Portland and both shows were unique and fantastic. Looking forward to seeing a third show in Reno in November to wrap up my own personal tour trilogy. If you haven’t been to experience Puscifer, do it. It’s a journey from the moment Agent Dick Merkin Steps onstage to express his musings till the third act strikes and Billy D finishes you off by getting the crowd going before putting them to bed slowly. Bedlamite.
This was by far the best show that I have ever attended. It was powerful, fun, well put together and overall an amazing experience!
The band was quite clear about no recording or phone usage or you would be ejected from the venue (and possibly ground into SPAM once outside). I know some will complain about this policy however I feel the lack of people holding up bright screens, trying to record the entire show and flashes going off everywhere, allowed you to really just live in the moment and enjoy the show as it was meant to be seen.
What an amazing show! I've waited years to see Tori Amos live, and with so many albums and such a prodigious body of work over the decades, I didn't expect to hear her perform as many of my favorite songs, both new and old. Playing multiple keyboards on either side of her, including her signature Bösendorfer, it was fascinating to watch her left hand play the piano while her right played a keyboard in the same song. Such a warm, loving, but fierce energy was amazing to be a part of.
I was bummed that Buckcherry started their show a bit early. I went in to go to my seat with only about five minutes to spare before showtime, and they were already playing. Fortunately I asked a guy and he said it was the first song, so I felt a little better. I love Buckcherry and with them opening for Alice Cooper - my second favorite artist of all time after ZZ Top - I got a two-for-one concert! A good thing about going in when they were already on stage was I got to walk in front of the stage and snap photos as I walked by. They didn't turn out that great, but hey, it was fun. I danced the whole show. Ah yes, and later on in the show, Josh Todd asked what we wanted to hear and the band played a few riffs from a ZZ hit. Already can't remember, but probably La Grange or something, so that was cool.
Alice never fails to disappoint. Although I got tired of standing after a couple hours (for the opener and in the merchandise line during the stage change) Alice and his crew performed for a couple more hours and the show was well worth the money. I paid for a more up-close seat, so I expected to have to stand. I tried to sit a few times but the show kept me on my feet! His setlist included a real nice variety from throughout his career. He even played Go To Hell, off one of my favorite albums: Alice Cooper Goes To Hell, and I'd never before seen him play harmonica. Now if only I had a newer phone with a better camera!
Such an amazing show. The girls in front of us were standing the whole time which sucked, considering the amount we paid for our tickets, plus one was clearly hammered, but the show itself was absolutely incredible. Didn’t spend that much to have a straight shot of 2 girls asses while they were clearly trying to get the band to notice them. Reminded me of why I have a hard time with shows that have rows of seats and no specific dancing area. Inconsiderate people.
The opening act, Myron Elkins, was also really good. A bummer that his mic was not functioning properly, or maybe the sound itself was just off, but I couldn’t hear him very well. Was surprised when I went home and watched a video of the band and heard his voice clearly. Then a little bit bummed that I didn’t get the full effect while at the show. I’ll go see both again if i get the chance!
One of the best part about “emerging artists” is their humility and willingness to give it their all every time. Maggie is passionate and grateful and immensely talented, we’re happy we’ve been able to see her both times she’s visited Portland and we’re looking forward to the next!
Such a beautiful human being; someone whose music has often carried me through the darker valleys of recent years. When he begins the show with my favorite song and plays through most of my other favorites, it was quite clear my cheeks would hurt a bit at end of show from all the smiling. The arrangements were stunning and I do hope it was recorded. Long may you sing for us, Gregory, as my ears shall never tire of it.
The entire experience, from the venue to the opening act, was brilliant. Julia Jacklin was a great opener, and things just got better and better as the show went on. First Aid Kit is a first rate act! I so enjoyed every bit of the concert. After the Gold Rush had me tearing up, it was so beautiful.
Such a treat to experience the amazing talent, unique chemistry and sisterly love these two ladies bring to the stage. Their harmonies gave me those magical chills several times throughout the show. It was great to see all the personal photos from youth to the present appearing behind them. What a journey! So much love! Julia Jacklin was an excellent choice for an opener and as the third voice for their cover of After The Gold Rush. A brilliant experience indeed.
