The venue is classic for a concert. There are concessions in the back and sides for drinks. Wasn't too bad getting in and out. First come, first serve. Didn't have to get there that early to get a good view. The sound system is high-end. Cool lights and special effects. WKQX was also nice enough to hand out water bottles in between bands. Seeing a concert live at the Aragon is a unique experience.
This was my first concert with Rise Against AND Chevelle, and I loved every moment of it! Perfect way to end 2021!
All the bands did a great job performing. The bands took the stage when they were seemingly supposed to and each put on a great show! Chevelle and Rise Against are definitely must see bands!
Amy Lee was fantastic - actually entire band was great. Will see again!
The concert was very enjoyable...The venue was nice and clean ....Even tho we had to stand the whole time ...We still had a blast
Lots of vendors is a giant plus. Probably a dozen of spots with drinks and I saw pizza stand and probably there was something else but I didn't pay attention. All three bands were great with, of course, Evanescence being a cherry on top. The interior is quite unusual and interesting. A perfect set for some theatrical performance. But not for an instrumental concert, I guess... And so here is a part about the sound: The sound was soo terrible that I felt bad for the bands that actually did their best but all their efforts were crushed by a completely off sounding system. Highs were so high that they were barely noticeable and performers voices sounded as if only tweeters were on without mid and bass. Guitars were washed out to such an extent, that only guitar solos were somewhat ok to listen to. For some reason all three bands performed that night had overwhelming presence of drums and only drums. Lots of bass lots of volume. The bass/drums were super loud and filled entire place killing efforts of guitarists and singers. Will I come again to Aragon for a concert? NO
Everything was great đ from start to finish but I wish there was more options for food.
All the bands that played that night were very good but evanescence stole the show.101 wkqx put on the show foe tnwsc in Chicago and was a fun experience.I'm already looking forward to next year's show
The sound was muddy which was surprising as the Aragon usually has one of the best sounds of all the concert venues The bar offerings are very limited now compared to pre-Covid
You go to see Evanescence to hear Amy Lee. Her mic was so low she was completely drowned out by the music. We thought by the second or third song it would have been fixed, but it went on for the entire concert! My wife was so excited going there, and completely disappointed on the way home.
Every concert is a life experience! Thank you to all the artists for your great performances. The Aragon is such an cool venue!! And thank you WKQX for setting this up! I have attended every year and have never let me down! #TNWSC
Kol is always a kick ass show. But I really, really, really enjoyed this concert! They sounded amazing! Although they couldnât play as many songs as they did when I saw them in Nashville over the summer, it somehow was a better show! Loved it!
Aragon always excel in sound, logistics and personnel care for attendees. Events are greatly put together by KQX. Keep up the great work!
3 rd time this tour to see KOLâŚ.I am wishing there were more dates on this tour. Thanks KOL!!
Everything went smooth. Staff was extremely helpful. Venue was great. 1st time there. Definitely will be back. Easy in and out with parking across the street. And of course, the Killers were amazing!
The best venue in Chicago hosted Las Vegas natives "The Killers" for a 16 song setlist that tore the roof off the Aragon Ballroom!
The lovely folks in the VIP balconies stood the entire time making it impossible for anyone behind them to see the band. Congrats to 101WKQX for exclusively picking ignorant jerks for the VIP section. Lumineers played another exceptional show, they are a band you must see in concert, or in this case, at least hear live.
This was the worst experience for both of us. We traveled to Chicago from St. Louis just for this show and The Killers the next night. We arrived by 6:20pm. Got a great spot up against the sound board barricade so no one would be behind us. By time Michigander came on, we could not move in any direction it was beyond crowded. It only got worse. My 20 minutes into The Lumineers so bad My girlfriend got claustrophobic and panic attackâŚwe had to leave. Was nightmare just trying to leave the floor and get beyond the ballroomâŚand even there to the stairs was a mosh pit. Guarantee it was way beyond capacity for any safetyâŚfire, fighting, trampled⌠Clearly you wanted as much ticket and beverage revenue as possible and it came at the expense of customer enjoyment and safety. We will never come to an event at The Aragon ballroom and this should be addressed at the highest levels needed to ensure this never happens again. Was a âliving hellâ.
The music line up and venue was good. Tho the long line at the bars did dent the experience. Not sure if its because of the cashless setup.
Lumineers were great! Too much time alloted to starter bands. WAAYYY to hot in the venue , they need to add more AC or circulation or vents outside or something .
