HISTORY

I’m a HUGE JA fan but to be honest, the show I saw in Dublin in March was different from the show I saw last night in Toronto. Dublin was phenomenal! I was starstruck. I took my daughters last night to see him in our hometown and it was a bit lacklustre in comparison. It was still a great performance but the vibe was much more calm and chill. It was also a shorter concert. I would have been unhappy if I paid more that what I did for the box seats ;for a show less than 1.5hrs. Just wasn’t a memorable night for me unfortunately.

Amazing energy! Amazing vibes! Amazing performance! If you're considering going but not sure if you'll enjoy it, I promise - you will! I've been a fan of Damian for about 20 years at this point, and finally getting to see his show was so special for me. He did not disappoint. And Stephen did his thing! They were amazing together! If he were coming back to Toronto tomorrow I'd go again!

Show was phenomenal. Sophie Powers as an opener wasn’t great, but Loveless and Waterparks both put on an amazing show. Lights and sound were awesome. Crowd was quite rude though - very inconsiderate of everyone else near them, pushing and shoving constantly to get close to the front or into the “mosh pit”. That’s probably just because of the younger age of the fan base, though.

So fucking good! Amazing set and energy, visuals were dope and the confetti made me so happy. I danced my ass off. I wanted more! Hope Odesza comes back soon. Phantoms were also top!! Side note: History needs to sort out their coach check situation. It’s highly Dangerous - no crowd control and tons of people pushing and shoving, I was almost crushed at one point it was scary

Opening act Texas King we’re great. Second time seeing BW at History and once again very impressed with this venue. As for BW they did not disappoint even though this was the last stop of tour and everyone must be beat up a little bit. Ian’s vocals were fantastic, his guitar playing wizardly, and the band was tight. The crowd sang lustily along with band, you couldn’t ask for a better Xmas show to wrap up 2023.

Meshuggah as usual were great. Sound at history is great. Very clean place. Staff are very friendly. Not my favorite place for a show.stage is to low to see unless u are jammed in lower floor jnfront of stage(mosh pit area) or payed a crazy amount of money for a seat upstairs. Viewing isn't great anywhere else. Just tops of heads. It is designed more a dance club than concert hall. . Upstairs sound is OK at best upstairs They have large tv's everywhere. Never showing the show for people who can't see. Only comercials

First time seeing them and they were amazing. The polyrhythms in their music is very complicated and it’s surprising they can play it so well live. Very tight in all the stop/start places in the music. I honestly don’t know how they can keep it all straight. Lights were cool and the crowd was very into it and appreciative. Would definitely recommend them!

The show was my favourite this year, and I've been to about 15 so far! (making up for the lost covid years). The band was just awesome - the backing string quartet was a great addition. The sound was fantastic - best I've heard at History. The crowd loved it, I loved it, the band loved it - you could tell they were having a great time, and that always translates into a great show. And the History venue is now the best place to see bands in Toronto.

Everything was perfect. I had VIP seating and loved the staff and the food and drinks. Everyone I spoke to was friendly and helpful. BVB, VV and Dark Divine were all high energy and I was totally immersed in the event. After the show I was able to talk with most members of BVB and their energy was contagious and their compassion was overwhelming. Excellent experience, would definitely go back to History and will go see BVB whenever they are closeby.

The artists were amazing, but the venue not so much. They wouldn’t let us in because we bought VIP upgraded tickets by mistake, which is weird because how can we buy an upgrade if we didn’t have the tickets to begin with? Then, they told us we needed to buy tickets to get in so we did - four for $66 each. However, they still wouldn’t let us in at the door because they said we just bought access to the sound check. What the hell! We did see the show, but it cost twice as much and we still weren’t allowed in the VIP area even though that’s what I apparently bought in the first place.

First time at History, loved it but next time I'm definitely paying the extra for the box seats the atmosphere within them more fits me and from what I saw the waitress by box 205 was amazing and so professional makes we want to go back and soon lol. Also the whole staff and security so friendly and welcoming. What a great place.

First time seeing a band at History. What a great venue. Love the Interrupters! Such great energy and heart. They really connect with the audience. Aimee is definitely my secret crush. Don’t tell my wife! Although I am a relic from the days of the Clash and Ramones. Didn’t know that much about Frank Turner but wow he is amazing live. Even recovering from an illness he really got the audience singing and dancing. Really enjoyed Chuck Ragan as well. Love his voice. A great night for sure!

Show 2759 in the books with a great show and a great evening overall I knew nothing about Chuck Ragan or The Interruptors, but was extremely pleasantly surprised by both of them. I'm sure The Interruptors would have benefitted from a larger stage, but it didn't appear to slow them down at all My first time in an indoor standing-only venue since before COVID, so everything started of a bit stressful for me. All stress left as soon as Frank took the stage. A great selection of songs & great audience energy made the whole show a good old fashioned sing along. My only complaint is I wanted the show to go on much longer.

Alter Bridge was awesome! Mammoth WVH was awesome! The venue, History, was a disappointment, though. There was only room for 1 merchandise table and the line was a giant snake! The worst thing was, while I was trying to enjoy watching the bands, people kept moving in front of me, to get beer; and I was on the side, of the floor crowd, too!

How to turn a hater into a fan? With hospitality. In October, we had a terrible experience at History, when my 15-year-old son, my wife, and I were denied entry to a concert by The Dead South. It was a 19+ concert, which was not clear at the time of ticket purchase. Shortly after we complained, History's general manager Steven Biasutti contacted us, offered us tickets to any concert in the venue of our choice, and said he was keen to meet us in person. We chose the Amon Amarth concert, which was last night. When we arrived at History, we were greeted by Steven, who gave us access to the VIP area for an amazing night. The place is cozy, and the sound is great. We'll be back! Thanks Steven, for turning a bad experience into an awesome one

I'm only giving 4 stars because of venue location. Nickelback as always was great. But, the show was short for the amount of money I paid for a ticket. I also had to buy a cell phone to go to History. It's an 'All Mobile' venue. Put that all together and I spent over $1500.00 to go. Too expensive for such an early/short show. Bar closed at 9:55pm. Really??? That's insane. Anyways Nickelback was awesome as always. Plus we all got to wish Chad a "Happy Birthday". I just hope he liked the gift I gave him on the 14th. NICKELBACK BEST ROCK BAND!!!!!j

The Dead South were great as usual. And their opener, Benjamin Dakota Rogers, proved for me once again… always show up for the opening act. HISTORY is a little bit of an odd shape and vertically challenged people like me would benefit from Danforth Music Hall - style sloped floors. But the sound was good and that’s what matters most.

I am praying she can concur the rumoured health issues of touring. For not seeing Demi on stage again would be a shame. The group she put together also shined as bright as Demi's star shines. Big love to the band. The entire concert with the opening act was spot on. Truly any fan would be short of amazed with the talent of this woman. We love you and pray for your future to be full of happiness and prosperity always. Very much enjoyed the well put together play list. Hopefully can see another Demi concert again in the future. If dates can align will def be in attendance again.

5 star performance from Joji, crowd gets maybe 2 stars because of how many times I got shoved by people walking in the crowd late trying to get a better spot, drunk people grabbing and pushing me to get by after I’ve been standing in the same spot for 2 hours everyone wants to see, if you get in the venue late don’t be that guy who shoves their way through. I understand if you’re trying to get to a group of friends but other than that don’t be those people for real so rude

My first time seeing Aurora and my first concert since the pandemic started. Honestly one of the best concerts I've been to. Aurora is so authentic as a performer and a person. She told us funny stories and anecdotes between songs and even paused the show at one point when someone fainted (it was pretty hot in the venue as packed as it was). She reassured the person who had fainted that it was okay (which it was, it happens) and made sure they were taken care of before resuming the show. I wish I could relive this night. One of ehe best of my life! Thank you, Aurora!
