House of Blues Anaheim

Bobby and Xavier were spectacular! This was our first time taking our children to a concert, so we chose their favorite artist, and they loved it. It was topped off with Xavier inviting our 5yr old son on stage so he could lie down on the stage for the last couple of songs. We will never forget this experience. Thank you, Xavier and Bobby!!

I have been a fan for over 20 years. I was absolutely blown away by the show last night. The band was so tight, and the energy was unreal. I took two friends that have never seen Queensrÿche and they were amazed at the music and the show…. Had to wait a bit after the show because they needed to get shirts as new , loyal fans. What I really appreciate is that they absolutely love, and play for their fans. Lots of great bands out there….. QUEENSRYCHE Is the best!

The artist is always exceptional. Although the venue staff or maybe it’s the way the venue is structured was horrible. I personally think an artists that it’s very disrespectful and disappointing when there are distractions. Especially what makes it worse is that it was caused by only the staff. Towards the right side of our way facing the stage, there were two doors.. one behind the stage and one near the back towards the restroom and staff kept walking in and out about every 3 minutes, taking out trash or even talking to other staff members, it’s quite honestly very discouraging going back to your venue.

SO GOOOOOOOOOOOI attended the Bailey Spinn concert on September 30th, 2023, and it was an absolutely incredible experience. The atmosphere was electric, and the energy in the air was palpable from the moment we stepped inside the venue. Bailey Spinn, the talented female musician, took the stage to thunderous applause, and from the first note, it was clear that this was going to be an unforgettable performance. The sound was crystal clear, and every instrument in the band was perfectly balanced. The lighting and visual effects were also stunning, creating a mesmerizing backdrop for the music. The stage was alive with color, movement, and energy, and it felt like we were all part of something truly special. Bailey Spinn herself was on fire that night, delivering one incredible performance after another. Her voice was pitch-perfect, and she effortlessly commanded the stage with her charisma and energy. The crowd was fully engaged, singing and dancing along to every song, and it was amazing to see how much joy and happiness the music was bringing to everyone in the room. Overall, the Bailey Spinn concert on September 30th, 2023, was an incredible experience that I'll never forget. It was an honor to be there and witness such an amazing performance from one of the greatest female musician.

It was absolutely amazing. Bailey is a damn rockstar man! He’s a great guy and legit loves his fans. I watched him even after the show still say hi to some fans they got lucky enough to run into him after the show. I got to do a meet and greet which was great and got lucky enough to run into him at the end of the show while I was looking for my car! I would see him over and over again if I could!

I was a part of the VIP group and had an amazing time. It was an honor to see a band I’ve been listening to for 9 years now go from headlining the glasshouse to selling out the house of blues. Absolutely insane to think of how big these boys are. Cant wait to see em for the billionth time again!

Awesome show except for all the phones blocking my view. One tall guy even held his up with both hands to completely block me. I advise everyone to leave phones in your pocket, try to live in the moment, and think about the guy behind you trying to enjoy the show too. I get that you phone people payed money too, but know you're actively making the show worse for other people, and that's not cool. And let's be honest, the phone videos are always pretty trash anyway. Is it really worth it? Are you gonna watch it later or are you just gonna post it online once to look cool and never think about it again? Maybe just take a picture instead. But yeah great show! Alice is still one of my favorite bands, and I love their new stuff too especially The Devil Put Dinosaurs Here. They play a good mix of older and newer stuff, and it's always an awesome show. It was so cool seeing them in a smaller venue.

One of the best shows I have seen this year! Unbelievable energy - Kip and the band were on fire and the crowd responded. It was one of those shows where everyone was smiling, happy, singing along and you did not want it to stop even though at the end, your voice was hoarse from singing along -and you were exhausted from jumping, clapping and just having a great time! Phenomenal band & all gave it 150% and the crowd was totally into it! Kip knows how to put on a genuine live show - Cannot wait to see these guys again!

I saw this band in 1993 and 1995 in Salt Lake City Utah. Outstanding shows at that time. I made the drive from Salt Lake City to Anaheim to finally see them live again especially after releasing an incredible album Six! The concert will be a memory for a lifetime. I felt the song selection for the setlist was really good. The energy the band brought on stage was awesome! I seriously can say it look like they had not aged since I saw them in the '90s. The only new member was the drummer who I was familiar with when he played drums for Nuno on a couple of his solo albums and I absolutely loved him on those albums and he killed it during the show as well. I can honestly say I feel extreme actually cares about putting on a good live performance is obviously well prepared and as a member of the audience I feel that they do care about each and every fan. I highly recommend anyone to see this band and if they happen to read the reviews thank you for an outstanding evening at the House of Blues in Anaheim!

According to my nephew it was great. I didn’t get to stay because they don’t have a real ADA section. We had to sit on barstools with little to no padding. The only other option was a folding chair with even less padding. I wish I could have stayed and seen Set It Off. I really enjoy their music. I have multiple autoimmune diseases which put me in a lot of pain most of the time. I need a comfortable seat , especially for an 8 hour concert. Cheers to Set It Off for putting on a great music festival!

Amazing. Amazing as always. First time out in Anaheim & at the HOB, but I definitely made sure months ago to attend this event. I saw all the bands/solo artists I was anticipating to see and every single set was amazing. Such a wonderful experience that I could never forget & honored to have attended the very first Kill Iconic Fest to start off this year. I truly hope to attend any other future event they put together!

I love beach house, they always put on an amazing performance. The sound and visuals were also amazing. However, I did not enjoy them at this venue. It was so incredibly packed in GA that the bathroom and bars were unreachable, people were passing out in the crowd. Most of the crowd had their phones out recording the entire concert which blocked our view. I wish there had been a no recording policy.

I love AFI, and I’ve been a fan for 15 years. This was my first time seeing them and I’m a bit disappointed. The band sounded pretty great, however they only played about an hour! And gave no encore. I couldn’t believe that. I’ve never heard of any band not giving an encore! The band didn’t even say goodnight and thank us for coming out at the end of the show, so we were waiting for an encore and didn’t know it was over until the lights were turned on. Apparently they waved goodbye and said it to the pit. They should’ve thanked everyone over the microphone at the end. A short set list, no proper thank you/goodbye , and no encore makes me feel like they don’t appreciate their fans. They need to be more humble. All in all, the experience made me contemplate if I’d spend my money to see them again, especially with such a short set list. The Anaheim House of Blues venue was absolutely horrible too. There are pillars in the way so not everyone can see, especially if you’re on the shorter side. I’ll never do GA again or come to this venue again.

First time seeing all three of these bands live and it definitely will not be the last for any of the three. Eva Under Fire was great and kicked things off in high gear. Atreyu was great! Funny, entertaining, and sounded great. Then, Nothing More… Wow! I have never seen so much energy in a live performance. Overall, what an amazing show at a great venue! Im already searching for dates to see all three bands again.

I really enjoyed Exodus and Testament, however I missed Death Angel completely who started before 7:00 pm, thanks to the incompetence of the House of Blues website that listed 3 other opening bands that were on the original Bay Strikes Back tour, but no longer playing on the rescheduled dates. With everyone spending so much time online, it doesn't seem to be too much to ask that venues update their calendar. Death Angel is one of my favorite bands and I was very disappointed not to see them, but I'll definitely be at the next show! Thanks for nothing HOB.

Papa Roach absolutely killed it!!! Papa Roach gives 110% every single show…always simply incredible. This band has been rocking since 1993, and I swear the energy just keeps going up. Their music is classic yet evolving. I can’t think of a more amazing band…Papa Roach is out-effing-standing!!! I can’t wait for the next show, the next song, the next album… Let’s GOOO!!!

They were amazing of course!!!! The venue however… oh my goodness. Everyone was packed super closely with drunk people everywhere just bumping into you. “Sorry, excuse me… excuse me, sorry” Just stay in your spots!!!! And then a bunch of older people who didn’t even know Kaleo drunk dancing, hitting you, talking super loudly during their performance and spilling their drinks. Nope!!! I would advise to either go super early, get a spot in the front or get a seat upstairs.

All of The acts were great especially The Missing Persons. However, the headliner Josie Cotton cancelled. That was a bummer for sure. I hope her health is good. She was missed. Funny a the former super group The Missing Persons where on the ticket since there was a missing person “Josie Cotton”. I would have given this 5 stars if she had been there as the other acts were all amazing

The best show I think I have ever seen! Everyone KILLED IT! I was really looking forward to ERRA and my word did they bring it! Fit for a King shredded for my second time seeing them and Like Moths to a Flame lit the fire to start the night. And even with the stand in singer for ABR it was epic! Completely brought down the house and the Christmas song before White Washed was just unreal. One of the best nights of my life for sure.

It was fantastic! Seeing these boys for the first time at their first headlining tour was such an amazing experience I will never forget. If they’re coming to your city, buy tickets to see them! They are such great performers and they are unbelievably talented. Both opening acts were absolutely amazing as well. I already know I’ll be seeing In Real Life again, as well as Spencer Sutherland and JAGMAC ❤️
