VF was just as others said, they rock as much as they always have and the horns are sick. After the album was over they played some other hits and jammed quite a bit. Novo Theater in LA is just an awesome modern venue.

Fantastic Experience
The Sylvee - Madison
The guys are as good today as they were when I saw them in the 80s! Plus the expanded horn section was fantastic! I would see them every year if possible.

Great show!

Even if you don’t have core high school memories of this music, you will still have a fantastic time! If you love live music, go to this show.

One of the best shows ever
MGM Music Hall at Fenway - Boston
the MGM Musical Hall is absolutely beautiful. Not a bad seat in the house. The rooftop bar is a must-visit. At the first song of the opening band I thought I might have to step out until the VF came on stage. But by the second song, I was hooked. The Nickel and Dimes Band, from Jamaica Plain MA, was absolutely amazing. They gave a very Talking Heads vibe. And then the Violent Femmes. They are one of the best bands I have ever seen live. Nothing flashy. No pyrotechnics, robotic stage decorations or dancers. Pure, unadulterated musical talent. They blew us away. I would DEFINITELY go back to the MGM. And if the VMs tour again, I will DEFINITELY see them again as well.

Great band; horrible light show
Ulster Performing Arts Center - Kingston
Excellent musicians; played their classics. I have to mention the light show. Someone made the decision to have bright lights shining in our faces for the majority of the show. Like I can handle lights, but these were directly in our eyes and made it hard to focus on the music or just relaxing.

Incredible Show!
Ulster Performing Arts Center - Kingston
The venue, the opening act, The Rock Academy, and Violent Femmes were all magical!!! It was clear the audience was filled with super fans and everyone was singing along. The night was filled with surprises, with the kids from Rock Academy coming back up on stage to play with the Femmes! They blew the crowd away! The harmonies, the horns, the drums, the guitars, keyboards and the passion was all present and accounted for! WOW!!!

Amazing show!
MGM Music Hall at Fenway - Boston
Great performers, the sound was perfect, and they played each song off their debut album so expertly and as we wanted to hear them! Brought me back to high school- exactly what I hoped it would be and more! Thank you Violent Femmes for an amazing night!
