Great venue! Sound, projection, lighting all top notch. One Republic 😍😍😍the best!
One negative-you must enter and exit the venue through the smoke filled casino. There are exit gates at the venue that would take you directly to the parking lot but sadly those were blocked by security. Not cool!
They always put on a great show. I have seen them countless times, in various venues like Lollapalooza, small venues Music Box theatre in Hollywood, to stadium performances.
They put on a good show at Thunder Valley. However, John was noticeably injured, and had to sit and rest part way through the show. I believe it was after he had a car accident earlier in the year.
Anthony came out late, not the first time that I have seen that happen. The real shocker was that he had a broken leg or other injury, and was wearing a walking cast. He still jumped around a lot. I think that he needs to remember that he is getting on in age, and needs to take better care of himself.
Their voices have really held out, and Flea, is always amazing, he never ages! He is also such a nice person. Someone had brought his book to the show and he signed it.
I have spoken to Flea years ago, he is good person and a consummate musician.
I am nostalgic for the old Mraz days: Small venues, the "acoustic trio" (Jason, Toca, and Ian), the old songs, and getting to hang out with him after. The latter is what I miss most.
However, I am so happy for him to be at this stage of fame and success. It's truly amazing to look around and see a sea of excited people!
I am so proud of you, Mr. A-Z.
It was a memorable experience.
Lou Gramm and 38 Special were the artists and they both didn’t disappoint at all! Lou Gramm belted out hit songs of Foreigner and his solo hits. When he first appeared, my first thought was, oh no he won’t be very good. After he did a couple of songs, I was reassured that wasn’t going to be the case. I saw him in the early eighties, when he was still with Foreigner. Even after all those years, he still sounds great! He performed his show and left the stage and there was a short intermission, then we jammed to 38 Special. I had also seen them in the early eighties! They had changed their lineup some since, back then but they were still awesome! The sound was clear and thunderous! All of the band gave us their best performances. It was a truly awesome experience by both bands. It will be remembered as one of my favorite concerts. Thunder Valley Casino has an incredible venue for the best music experiences. I will gladly go there again and again for concerts.
Goo Goo Dolls played a lot of songs. Lead singer gave an incredibly real performance. He showed humility and humor while controlling the audience as he wished. The Venue is nice but the volume was so low hardly felt like a rock concert. Bars were closed leading to long wait for $25 cocktails. Goo Goo Dolls were great and worth seeing at least once.
Lukas Nelson was incredible! His voice was easy to listen to and in a few songs he was belting his vocals like none other. All band members were very talented. I especially loved the pianist and bass solos. Keep on coming to Northern California. I would definitely like to see him again!
BEP was AWESOME!!! Though the show started later than expected. They were definitely worth that wait. They put on a GREAT show. With all of there top hits like "Let’s Get It Started", to "Boom Boom Pow" to "I Gotta Feeling". They were all outstanding musicians. One of the best shows I have been too. will.i.am even sang his solo songs like "#thatPOWER" and "Scream & Shout"
Enjoyed the show even though they started late and mics cut out at key parts.
Hated having to wait in the smoky casino to enter and then have to exit through the same when they have a beautiful outdoor covered patio area and exit doors from the patio right to the parking area. Having to make a big loop to go through the casino is just wrong, especially for those with respiratory issues.
Seating is tight and constant having to get up to allow others to pass. Probably need more warning in foyer to tell people to get to their seats as so many came in late and disrupted those trying to enjoy the show.
Plenty of secure parking and they really get the flow of traffic going to empty the casino. Be prepared to only be allowed to make a right turn out of the venue and going the long way around to get back to 65 and I 80.
It was fantastic!!! First time I have been to The Venue so didn't know what to expect. Seating was excellent, everyone was professional in appearance and friendly in their interactions. And the show was perfect - I love how the performers were flexible enough in how they interacted with the audience or when they goofed up in their presentations or songs. True artists!!
Peter is so awesome! I love a performer who appreciates his audience and Peter made us feel like we were his best friends. He still is a phenomenal musician. So grateful for another chance to see him. Nothing but LOVE for Mr. Peter Frampton!
Boney was awesome as always! He played my favorites and we loved his band! The drummer and guitar Big Mike’s solos were on hit!! Boney and his band have so much energy! It was a perfect summer night out at the Venue at Thunder Valley Casino. I hope he comes back to promote his next album. We will definitely be back to see him at the Venue.
His was the best concert ever.the only concert that Thunder valley had thst was worth seeing. There is people thst like country music he was the closest thing to it.i live 2 miles from there and its,terrible half of the entertainment that performs there I never heard of.But Jihn Fogerty rocks.
By far one of the better concerts I’ve been to. A band full of great musicians and did some great crowd work as well. His voice is spot on with the recordings. Unlike other bands/musicians, Train actually performed on time, which is rare nowadays, and did a 22-song set. About two hours long. Great, new venue as well. Just this year alone, I’ve seen John Mayer, Muse, OneRepublic, Phoenix, Kelsea Ballerini, etc…… I would say that so far Train has been the most crowd friendly and respectable band. The show was absolutely worth the money. Highly recommend.
Although it’s hot I do enjoy the Thunder Valley Venue. This event fans were provided and I valued that thoughtfulness. Travis Tritt & his band did an amazing show. I know they must have been hot not only because of the weather but also all the lights but they didn’t even let it phase them. Randy was jumping, dancing and rocking his guitar. Watching the band vibe was awesome. I’ve never seen a steel pedal guitar live so that was a treat as well. The energy from Travis and his band really lit up the crowd. I don’t think anyone in the venue sat down once the entire performance. It was one of the best shows.
Travis Tritt was the Best last night! Luv his Bandmates, too! His vocals were great and he’s amazing on his high notes! It was warm last evening in Lincoln but we could not sit during his motivational sounds 💕. Cannot wait to see him, again——maybe he will come to my hometown Napa Valley, CA❣️
Show was great, even though it was hot. The opener changed last minute to David nail, they were excellent. I am not a fan of casino shows...people tend to come in drunk and sloppy for the main act and dump drinks all over. I was second row center, great seats..but for the last song security let anyone go to the front. Not to be a snob, buttttt..we paid extra to see the show...in the premium seats...we did not pay to see late comers and row hoppers.
Billy was awesome! He’s totally still got it. He added a couple guitarists since the last time we saw him in addition to Stevie and the sound was studio quality. It was our first time at Thunder Valley. The sound was pretty great. I’d go back.
I've seen Styx for years. Usually they pull out some of their more rockin songs. Not on this tour. All pop songs. Sorry to see they brought back mr Roboto. Keyboard player did a 10 minute segment and played some cover songs. Could've easily fit in another styx song. Too many new songs, especially on a short set. Highlights were crystal ball and blue collar man. Sounded great just not my favorite song selection.
Love LRB. I am sad to say that at this performance the lead singer- who I do love- is losing his ability to sing and it is affecting the performance.It happens to most aging artists, which I can attest to as a professional vocalist.I hope he can recognize it and hire a singer to sing those beautiful songs.
Foreigner - the music sounded great. Just wished that they had played longer. The set was a little short they were on stage less than an hour and a half and they spent a little more time talking than I like at a concert. Introduce the band “yes” and give short stories “that’s cool” but when the countdown clock on the side of the stage says you have 20 minutes left and after talking you can only fit in one song where there could have been several that was disappointing. Other than that loved the show.
