Evan and the band were amazing I could feel the bass through the floor and an energy that ignited the room evan was interactive with the crowd and came to the front many times and did gig tricks like sliding across the floor and jumping off the drum kit. I also had VIP which was very worth it as it meant I was the front for the gig I got a free TX2 bag and poster and VIP lanyard the poster and lanyard was signed evan also kindly signed my arm so I could get it tattooed the next day which made a lovely permanent memory of my night. BRING ON NEXT YEAR unless I win the lottery then I'd definitely watch in America!
I usually prefer artists with a little heavier sound, but have really got into Arrows in Action since The Credits came out. Not expecting my favourite song of theirs to be on the setlist (based on other shows), I took more of a relaxed approach, stood a bit further back than usual etc.
The guys nailed it, however. Vocals were excellent, stage presence was great and all in all this was a really fun show. The interaction with the crowd was brilliant, including a 15 minute Q&A mid-set, and they even played snippets of The Credits and Checking In, which I wasn't expecting.
When AiA and Young Culture took the stage after the show and danced about to Vengaboys, it really capped off the night, and summed up the overall experience perfectly - pure enjoyment.
Wish Holy Wars could have played for longer. Also got to see em at Download the day before so can't complain. Amazing yet again. Great show. Awesome music.
Absolutely amazing, it was my first concert and it exceeded my expectations. Kim is such a nice person, and he - and the rest of the band - most certainly know how to entertain an audience. They were all lovely - the team even handed out water to the crowd because of how how it was. Honestly, i just cant wait for him to come back to the UK so that i am able to see him again LOL. Everyone down to the staff from the actual location were incredible, especially when any of us had any questions we had. Please, if you want heavy metal, and a show, see kim dracula!! He was incredible. Aswell as that- the support act (gore) was incredible, especially the kindness of them and the rest of the band members!! Thank you so much for making my first experience what it actually was! Seriously, perfect.
Ignea were great live, with on point guitar and strong operatic vocals from the lead singer. They played a selection of tracks from their most recent album along old favourites including a great rendition of “Alga.” Got the ticket for them and would definitely see them live again.
Sirenia did not disappoint. One of the best bands around for great melodic structure, but without sacrificing that delicious heavy feel. And Emmanuelle Zoldan's voice is sooooooo good! Great to hear her live for the first time.
Temperance - what a fabulous, fun band! Loved their audience interaction as well as the interplay between the singers - they are all good performers as well as top musicians. "Pure Life Unfolds" was a great way to finish the set - a positive message being belted out by the whole audience is what we need more of these days! Headliners in future, for sure, and Kristin Starkey has the potential to be the outstanding metal vocalist of our time.
The venue staff were all friendly. I only discovered The Dome last year (Xandria) but have tickets fir future shows already.
Sirenia are one of the finest Symphonic Metal bands around. Have been for years. This gig was pure class from start to finish. Emmanuelle Zoldan’s voice is superb. Second to none. The musicianship is off the chart. And Morton Veland’s songwriting skills cannot be bettered. A true five star performance. So chuffed they did the cover of “Voyage Voyage”. The Sirenified version is amazing! All in all, great performance.
Last gig of the year for me and an absolute stormer to see out what has been an exceptional year for live music. The Done was comfortably sold out but not overstuffed, the sound was great and Helmet were on form, tight as a drum and delivered a career spanning selection that you could not have asked better of. Great to see them after many, many years and hope to see them again on these shores soon.
Well the wait was finally worth it! Wolf heart and beyond the Dawn absolutely smashed the granny out of it! What an amazing show! Please some leave it so long again! Gif of the year for me hands down!
Amazing show! First time seeing them live. The guys are so nice, I hope it won't be that long until they come to Europe again. A must-see band 🖤🤘🏻
I was a teenager in Greece when I discovered The Academy Is... in 2005, and after I missed what turned out to be their last London gig in 2012 I thought I'd never get to see them live. But I was so glad to be proven wrong! Seeing them play such a cool little venue is a memory I will treasure forever. They were my first ever favourite band, and I can't wait to see what they'll do next.
Absolutely out of this world. Waited so long to see them and they did not disappoint! My boyfriend surprised me with the VIP upgrade, they were super chill guys🫶🏻
It was a great gig and my first time seeing a live band at The Dome - will be coming back later this year for Vended! Bad Omens are sooo good live too.
Experience of a lifetime, honestly. Amazing support bands, lovely and respectful crowd, lighting was beautiful and not forgetting the sound of bad omens themselves and Noah’s incredible voice. I was scared as many have warned me that most bands don’t sound as good live but my god, that couldn’t be further from the truth for bad omens. Like bad omens? You have to go see them.
Goatwhore ripped up the Dome. Brilliant show from terrific musicians, full of aggression and primal riffing. Great to see the band had time for the fans too. 👍🏻
My girlfriend and I were in the front row and it was amazinf! We got Dave’s and Scone’s picks and felt we were close friends with Sum41! It was our second concert of them, and both of them have been intimate and special experiences with just a bunch of spaces available. So glad this band can be so amazingly friendly and make us happy by coming even in the smallest of places! And last but not least, by experience I can say that they can perfectly play every song in their catalogue even if the entire song list of this concert wasn’t planned as it actually was! You guys are some of the best musicians on stage!
In my younger and more vulnerable years my father gave me some advice that I've been turning over in my mind ever since.
"Whenever you feel like criticizing any one," he told me, "just remember that all the people in this world haven't had the advantages that you've had.

Incredible talent. What a moment. My jaw hit the floor on multiple occasions. First time I think I’ve been left speechless and in awe at a gig. Thank you for coming to London. See you next time. 💀💀🔥🔥
The show was amazing and venue was really good but the only that stop it getting a 5 star is that they didn't play daddy that in my opinion is there best Song but apart from that the setlist was geat the show was heat
Yh And If You have Any further Information
Loved it, fantastic show from the Rumjacks. Sound was a bit Spinal Tap turned up to 11 for the support acts but was sorted for the main act, spot on. Venue was just the right size for the audience, plenty of bar staff so not too much queueing, security seemed pretty switched on but not over officious. All in all a great night, recommend the venue and the band 👍
