Say Anything Tickets

Max Bemis was drunk, I left early. The whole audience knew and sang the words better than him. Could not have been more disappointed with his performance. The band was great but wow. Talk about unprofessional.

The concert was amazing and I had a great time. But it was genuinely distressing to not have the band play Wow, I can get sexual too, as it’s the most popular song on the album they were celebrating the anniversary of. The crowd was super confused and almost no one left when the band went offstage because we were all anticipating hearing that song. Just the weirdest vibe.

The openers both fit the vibe and then Max came out sick but still pulled an hour and a half set. Every second was amazing.

As someone who’s been listening to Say Anything for 20+ years this was a phenomenal show. Max played a full set with a head cold and you couldn’t even tell he was so full of energy.

Every anniversary tour I’ve been to, the album is played in order cover to cover. Say Anything sang halfway and then stopped. I understand the lead singer wasn’t feeling well, but then I would’ve rather him cancelled and got refunded instead of getting half. My favorite song was literally next, and he stopped right before. Then his encore was a song from a different album… His performance was good tho, and the crowd was good vibes too.

I am so glad I finally had the chance to see them live!

Seeing Say Anything was a high school throwback that was sure to meet the same expectations. Two things would have made that true, one of which was organization on behalf of the venue. It seems like they oversold standing first-floor tickets, and ended up with too many VIP seats on the second floor. Instead of offloading those for a lower price, it was still $125-$150 to sit up there. I’m glad that we didn’t just bite the bullet for the seats, because Say Anything put on a terrible show. It was both sad and cringe-worthy to watch a wildly inebriated Max Bemis struggle to recall lyrics, remain standing, and to keep his tongue under control. Like, the tongue flailing only uppers can elicit. The band did their best to save him, song after song. I don’t know if the venue can intervene in such situations, but maybe a new policy is in order. I hope Bemis can get some real help at some point as well. Anyway, Greet Death crushed it and should be invited to open for more bands. They truly rocked!

I’ve definitely seen better shows at The Ritz, Yacht Rock Review and Big Wild as the most recent, both of which were just as amazing.

Loved the show, say anything was amazing! But the venue itself was far too little for the amount of people there. Couldnt move around very much anywhere in the venue without bumping into at least 3-4 people. And the price of drinks were a little over the top. Overall we had a great time but I don't think we will come back to the Ritz for anymore shows.

We saw them live at the Ritz. I got all the bells and whistles I could. The venue was great, albeit about as packed as it could be before the walls fell off like a old timer cartoon. The VIP experience was great, complete with a personal bar, merch, and a very good employee of (I believe) Max's team to lead us through the process. They took photos for us and explained next steps often enough that it kept it from being overwhelming or anxious. We got to meet Max. He was awesome, down to earth, whitty, and happy. He thanked us for the support and poses with my wife and I. It was awesome just to shake his hand. The openers were good. We saw Greet Death and AJJ. Them we got to go to side stage for the main event. We watched Say Anything, unobstructed, from behind the stage and the energy was palpable and electric. It was almost like a massive sing along that tore at my highschool angst and teenage experience. It was more than worth the money and I'd see them again in a heartbeat. I won't spoil anything but it was truly a 20th anniversary of ...Is A Real Boy. We picked up some merch and had a few drinks and watched an amazing show. If you like, or even just liked say anything back in the day, I'd recommend the concert. I would have liked to hear more from the band but they were pumping out the songs and each one was better than the last.
