Gas South Convention Center

We all love NF in my family and I'm so thankful I could surprise my son Logan with tickets for his 9th birthday!! We had an awesome time and he said, it was the best day of his life!!! Much love for Nate and wishing safe travels for the remainder of his tour! I highly recommend going to an NF concert and seeing him live. He puts on one heck of a show!!! Love, Your Forever Fans

The show was great Bryan Adams has a great film playing behind him during the show. I felt like I was riding in a car will he was singing. Joan Jett was also amazing singing all the hits and including a few new releases.

Sound was God Awful...Way too much bass & the vocals were totally drowned out. I like Bryan Adams & he & his band did put on a great show, but it was so tough to get past the awful mix the sound guy gave us...that's why I only gave 4 stars (not for the show, but for the awful sound)

There wasn't a clear location or direction for VIP check in and the attendants in will call didn't give any help or information unless you asked them, they just sat there looking at you. Once one got the proper information, the location only had a small flag where VIP check in was. Some people had been told to go to VIP by will call only to be sent back because that's where their tickets were they just hadn't received the tickets yet at will call as it was a timed delivery. These things were a venue problem. Even had mixed up issues for the VIP check-in. The performers were beyond fantastic and excellent. The venue was great for the event. The event staff was friendly and helpful. The opening acts were amazing and Brooks and Dunn rocked it out!! I can't wait till the next concert to see them!

THESE BOYS PUT ON AN OUTSTANDING SHOW!!!!!!!! Best concert experience I've ever had, both last tour and now this one. Production value is out of control between the lighting, confetti/pyro, giant screens & amazing camerawork to keep the entire audience feeling like they are up-close. TXT's live vocals are INSANE, and if you love dance, then please go to one of their future shows and just watch how these boys go OFF - it hits so different in-person. So talented, 5/5 would recommend, I will be back every tour take my money

Toby Mac always gives 110% when he puts on a show, this was no exception. His openings acts were awesome as well. You could feel God moving in the huge space! I am never disappointed with Hits Deep tour!

I wish I knew. I can't say because I didn't go. I couldn't find anyone to go with me, and I wasn't up to going by myself. I had been looking forward to the concert for years ... since the last time Toby played there ... was it 4 years ago? The music is just ... I don't even have the words: amazing, incredible, awesome, beautiful, magnificent, uplifting, transcendent .... So I stayed at home and listened to all the Toby Mac on Youtube. Come back soon, Toby!

The concert had a great variety of artists whom were also embedded in Toby’s performances. I appreciate and loved the stories that went with some of the songs. I appreciate the openness and personalization the artists gave this was a well thought out performance and had great balance.

Such a great concert!! Emotional at times but that shows you how strong the bond really was. Took these two girls to Lanierland to see their idols and they were asked to get on stage and sing Have Mercy. This was the only time I did not have my camera. No picture of that special memory. So 32 years later they were able to have that picture made. Missing Naomi and her beautiful soul.

I LOVED THIS CONCERTS & REALLY HAD A GREAT TIME WITH WY & ALL HER GUESS. THE ARENA WAS VERY NICE & HAD LOTS OF DIFFERENT FOOD & DRINKS FOR EVERYONE. ALL STAFF WHERE ON THEIR TOES HELPING EVERYONE. I WOULD ENJOYING COMING BACK TO THIS ARENA AGAIN. FROM KINGSPORT, TN. DP

Seats were section 108 K 1 &2. They were great. Even when people stood up we could still see the stage. Martina McBride was great. Knew all her songs she sung. Intermission between acts was great and the music they played had the whole audience singing. When Wynonna came up from a location in the back of the theater...the toaster she called it...the whole theater erupted. She then walked up our side of the theater to the stage. It was 3 songs before the audience sat down. You could feel the support of the audience helping Wynonna throughout the show as she figures out her path forward without her Mother Naomi making The Judds. I would highly recommend this concert. It was great hearing both The Judds music and Wynonna songs that I grew up hearing.

This was the second best show I’ve seen in 34 years of concert-going, topped only by David Bowie’s final tour. Ghost’s performance, set dressing, and sublime stage performance led by the enigmatic and charismatic Papa Emeritus IV come together to make for a truly remarkable concert experience. They have always had their sites set on becoming an arena band, and with this goal well locked in they execute it masterfully. The set list contained nearly every song I’d hoped to hear, and I can’t wait to experience The Ritual again. My only criticism is that the set felt a bit short at 90 minutes, but I suppose the silver lining on this particular cloud was that there was absolutely no fat on the performance.

Great Concert. Band sounded just like there CD which is a real Plus. No Lip Syncing. The 2 Opening Bands were just OK.. But would recommend for anyone who is a Ghost Fan. Some songs were better live than on CD..

One of the BEST Rock n' Roll concerts I've ever seen, and I'm 67!!! Ghost was just Fantastic> Great Music, Tight tight band, Superb sound and vocal!! What a spectacle ! I loved it, so did my granddaughters!! Can't wait to see them again!

FIRST RITUAL AND MY MIND IS BLOWN!!! Couldn't believe how much room there was in the pit because I got right up to the barricade for the whole show! The venue could've made it more clear where VIP needed to go, I stood in two wrong lines before figuring out I didn't need to. But Ghost was INCREDIBLE and I can't wait to see them again!!! Sound was perfect, crowd had great energy, Papa and the Ghouls are sexy beasts and I can't stop smiling. Best night EVER! NEMA!

The concert was amazing! There could've been more clear communication about where VIP 1 and 2 should stand/ go at first but once inside everything was great! Merch was a bit pricey. Papa felt a bit low in the mix but still a great first show! Will have a bit more in depth review on my reaction channel on YouTube Amber and Charisse React

Best rock show I've seen in years. Papa Emeritus IV was in full form. Mastodon was amazing, as well. I missed Spirit Box because the T-shirt line was atrocious and I took one for the team. My family, the aforementioned team, said they were great. I rarely see bands more than once, but I would see Mastodon and Ghost again in a heartbeat.

The show was great. The sound was not. My first time at Gas South Arena so I couldn’t say if it was the acoustics or the mix but I’m inclined to believe it was the sound mix. The two warm up groups were worse, mostly drums and base, making the vocals impossible to understand and you could barely hear them over rest. Even the guitars were somewhat indistinguishable! The lighting on the warmups was even worse, I felt sorry for the guitar players doing solos in the dark! Ghost put on one hell of a show and I will definitely go see them again. If the sound had been better I would give it a 10!

Pat Travers Band: “It was my first ‘Georgia Jam’, an all day indoor event (1 pm—11 with 11 bands). Having received a list of stage times from a prompter I stealthily arrived in time for just the bands I wanted to see: Atlanta Rhythm Section 5:00-5:50, Pat Travers Band 6:05-6:50, Michelle Malone 7:05-7:40, Drivin N Cryin 7:50-8:45, Mother’s Finest 8:55-9:45, Jefferson Starship 10:00-11:00. Groupon was my friend scoring a pair of lower bowl seats half price after which I upgraded myself to row 1 side-stage left! There was to be far too much happening to write a full rundown of everything transpiring on stage hence my abridged rendering centers around Pat Travers. 2022 has been good to me for seeing guitar heroes live: Joe Bonamassa, Neal Schon, Tab Benoit, now Pat Travers, and a Jeff Beck gig coming up in October. So what’s the tie-in with the Canadian rocker to Georgia? Striving to revive the Jam tradition of 70’s and 80’s gone by, organizers sought out Travers who had played the event in the past. PTB ended up penciled in post-organization replacing the Georgia Satellites. The trio took the stage late cutting their set time down from 45 to a mere 30 minutes, the shortest actual stage time of any band the entire day. ‘My name’s Pat Travers, this is my band, and we’re gonna kick your a**, Alright?!’ The kick-off song began, 1977’s ‘Rock ’n’ Roll Susie’, loud and driving. One would swear Pat was playing to a stadium of 50,000 people in lieu of a quarter filled hockey arena, the 68 year old performer exhibiting no lack of energy. He wasted no time swapping out guitars each song, the one Fender never left his person from backstage to backstage. His combo Strat and Marshall stack echoed classic rock tones that are a rarity to hear live now-a-days. He announced the title cut from his newest album ‘Art Of Time Travel’ released last Friday which was just that, a trip back in time. For a minute or two the guitar feed cut out on Pat and David Pastorius on bass (formerly Carl Palmer’s ELP) continued ad lib showing us how skilled he truly is, all the while Alex Petrosky held tight the rhythm on the kit. The final song was ‘Boom Boom, ‘Do ya feel like makin’ some noise? Yeah’, in which Pat showed off some windmill moves reminiscent of Pete Townsend and Pastorius even exhibited some hammer and tap on the four string! The man is so humble, ‘My name is Pat Travers’ he concluded the show, I’m like ‘Yeah you are!’. I overheard one ‘hammer head’ standing in front of me as Pat left the stage saying, ‘My (concert) list is now complete.’ You betcha I’d pay good money to see a full length show any time! Michelle Malone from Atlanta was next up compacting highlights of a 30 year career in a little over half an hour. The local crowd favorite noticed the clock, ‘I wonder how time I really have, is it 7 min? Do you wanna rock?’ Michele broke into a minute of Neil Young’s ‘Hey Hey, My My’. She had the whole Young sound package complete with harmonica. Next was Drivin N Cryin also Atlanta based and on the scene since ’86, one of those bands I’d likely have remained unfamiliar with if I had remained residing up North. ‘Thank you for inviting us to your house party’, the 61 year old Kevin Kinney’ called out. They put on a heck of a full hour long performance opening with their 1991 #15 hit ‘Fly Me Courageous’ dedicated to our military. I didn’t know quite what to expect but when they broke into some fine southern rock dual lead guitars about 3 songs in, I was definitely feeling it. Following was Georgia Hall Of Fame’s Mother’s Finest going on 20 minutes late but completing the full set.The 74’ish’ year old founder, Joyce ‘Baby Bean’ and vocalist ‘Doc’ Murdock’ (also a founding member from 1972) put on a lively show leaving the stage a hard act to follow. At one point original guitarist Moses Mo put on his own show lying down on his back like a dead man while Kennedy motioning the sign of the cross revived him back on foot. He then busted out into a segment of Wilson Pickett’s ‘Land Of 1000 Dances (the Na-na-na-na song) performing a solo with his teeth. Atlanta Rhythm Section, my 3rd time seeing them in a 14 month span began the evening delivering the goods (a 9 song set) with class despite guitarist David Anderson being sidelined with Covid. It was all okay, the band’s guitarist since ’76 Steve Stong made up for it with an extended solo on ‘So Into You’. Founding singer Rodney Justo cheered on the what he called a ‘small but mighty’ crowd, his vocal performance as good as ever. The headliner Jefferson Starship, my 6th favorite all time band (in all it’s variations) rounded off the evening. In my numerous times seeing them perform live it was my first time NOT seeing them front row floor, proof that there is indeed a first time for everything. I was actually excited to finally hear the music over the main system opposed to coming off the stage monitors. So what’s the tie in with the California band and Georgia? We’ll there really isn’t one except that GA native Mickey Thomas of ‘Starship’ (and a member of J.S. ‘79-‘84) was originally slated to play but due to a contracted gig at Sandy Springs GA he was prohibited to perform. Hence the substitution. Based on an Atlanta Rhythm Section post, I half expected Mickey Thomas to join in on stage which would’ve been a landmark event considering drummer Danny Baldwin once upon a time had rearranged his face altering the course for the two individual bands permanently. The band muscled through 11 hits one after another in the one hour set. Of note guru of the band David Freiberg celebrated his 84th birthday Wednesday and took the lead vocals on Runaway, With Your Love, and on Jane (which by the way he also wrote). David goes all the way back to Quicksilver Messenger Service and the latter years of Airplane and is a rock n roll legend in truth. I can not go without mentioning the tremendous job Cathy Richardson did on vocals (as she has the last 14 years, Slick being a tough act to follow), and Jude Gold one of my favorite guitarists to see Live. Their roadie ’Todd’ (an audience favorite) made a typical appearance on stage, Michele & I led the chant: ’Todd, Todd, TODD, TODD!’ ‘Somebody To Love’ was the final song, everyone on their feet. Eleven-Thirty concluded the event, only a half hour over schedule even after all the sets and stage turns, that’s pretty amazing. All in all, in my opinion the event was a success, let’s hope this evening ignited a new fire overall in the Jam’s legacy. I know I’ll be looking forward to 2023’s line-up!” by DAve (Concert #692)
