Saw Ben Kweller at White Oak Music Hall in Houston and it was awesome. It was his Zev tribute tour. The crowd was small enough for us to talk to him on stage. You felt like family being there as he shared so much of his life with us and what he is going through. He’s such a great person. It was so much a good time.
I’ve been listening to Ben Kweller for over a decade. His music has been so much of the soundtrack to my and my family’s life. To finally get to see him live, and in such a fun, personal setting like Masquerade, was a dream come true! Thanks for coming to Atlanta, Ben! Such a treat!
This venue was smaller than I expected. But this allowed for a very intimate show. Ben rocked out and provided the best show. I would go back to this venue again.
Great venue!! Love Ben kweller! Keep coming back! Hope to see him again soon
I've seen BK live dozens of times, many shows have been at The Bowery Ballroom (Ben Kweller loves the venue). I think this is the first time I've ever seen BK perform in a trio and without a keyboard or an acoustic guitar. He played his well-traveled Gibson SG guitar for the entire concert. Also, there's a new bassist and I wasn't sure whether or not BK's regular drummer, Mark Stepro, was the drummer or if it was someone else. Anyway, BK's trio format at this show was pretty freakin' hot. The song "Gossip" — my favorite tune off of GO FLY A KITE — was performed in the electric trio style and that really changed the song into a bluesy give-and-take affair. The entire evening was great.
I had a great time at the show, but I wish it had started an hour earlier considering it was a weeknight event. I wasn't able to stay for BK's second set because I had to catch the last bus back to NJ. Otherwise, it was fun. BK has great stage presence and knows how to connect with the audience.
Big BK fan for 13+ years. Excellent show with amazing energy and fantastic tunes. Venue staff are very accommodating and helped me find a seat upstairs as I have an injury and can't stand for a long time. Really memorable show.
Awesome show! I wish I could give more stars. BK was in stellar form.
To be brief, very brief, it was pretty much the best show I've ever been to in my life. Each band got increasingly better than the last!
BK always puts on a great show!! SO much fun and I wouldn't miss the next one!
Wonderful show! Great music and great performance.
The best show I have ever been to. Period. I would recommend it to anyone.
Sleepr Agent was a great lead in and BK was really on!
Ben Kweller puts on an excellent show with or without a band!
This was without a doubt the most amazing show I have ever been to. I was at the front of the stage about 5 feet away. He didn't have a band with him, just himself, but that was all that was needed. He played several songs on the piano and the rest of them on his acoustic. I stuck around for a few minutes after the show and got an autograph and my picture taken with Ben Kweller. What an awesome guy! I hope he keeps making music for many years to come!
Ben rocked!!! Expectations totally exceeded!!! Was a little concerned that BK was going to play more from Changing Horses (like it a lot, but my 4th favorite BK CD cuz of country sound) at the expense of goodies from his 1st 3 CDs. But not the case at all ... played a super-long set and didn't neglect any of his earlier hits ... much to the delight of me and a music-hall full of BK fans. He soloed and got some crazy electric guitar sounds out of his old-faithful acoustic, when he needed them. Nice back-&-forth transitions between guitar and piano sets. Kind of guessed that there wouldn't be a band back-up -- but, wasn't at all disappointed -- allowed the audience to better hear and appreciate BK's vocals (which were dead-nuts on all night) and instrumentals. Nice to see a concert in which the performer was clearly having as much fun as his audience! A great night.
I personally went to see julia nunes, however I know there were a lot of kweller fans there. I ended up meeting julia after tha show and got pics/autographs. so freakin' cute!!!!!
all i have to say is i just loved the show. i love the small atmosphere of the theatre so everyone's packed together and it's much more intimate. Ben's voice was just as great live as on my ipod. Thanks for playing for us Ben!
Ben Kweller is an extremely talented musician. His skills and genuinely good natured personality come out in his shows. This was the second time seeing him live. I wasn't disappointed in the least. He also knows how to pick great openers. At the show I bough both CDs for the opening band Jones Street Station, who I had never heard of before that night. An all around good show!
I thought the show was absolutely fantastic. I'd never heard Jones Street Station before, but they were the perfect mood setter for Ben Kweller. The whole night was full of energy and lots of joy. You could tell both acts were excited and enthused to be there and they put on am amazing show.
