Blue October is such a talented band. Justin pours out so much emotion and energy in their shows. Their lyrics and music are beautiful. All members of the band are crowd pleasers and put on an amazing performance.
Amazing Live. Simple as that. If you have a chance to see them, do it.
It was my first time at a Blue October concert and it was so great! Justin is an amazing passionate singer. I thoroughly enjoyed their performance and am looking forward to going again!
amazing show. Blue October rocks! The venue was a perfect setting also.
My wife and I Saw the Blue October show in Milwaukee on May 14th. This band is for real and there performance just blew my wife and I away. Loved the show from beginnjing to end. Performing the Approaching Normal album from beginning to end was absolutely awesome. Then they rocked out some songs from Foiled and the song choices were excellent. Shes my ride home was the highlight for me as they blasted the song out with energy like I have never seen. Blue October is always an excelent show.. If you love Blue October... You gotta see them live.. Its a blast.. Rock on Blue October, I will see you guys next time youre in the area..
This was the second time I saw Blue October live... They put on an amazing show, and definately played the crowd. Anyone who can should see them!
This concert was AMAZING! I drove 6hours to get there and Ill do it again when they go back there.
If you like Blue October you gotta go see them live!!! You will instantly fall in love with them. They really care about their music and put on an amazing show!!! The emotion and feeling shines through with every lyric. The expression and emotion is palpable. Even if you only know a couple songs by the group I would still highly recommend going to see them. It's not often you get to go see a band who puts such effort into each and every show they put on. One of the best concerts I've been to in quite some time!
As usual, a great show by Blue October. Only complaint was they played their new album in its entirety in order to open the show. I would have preferred new songs and older material intermixed.
After seeing Blue October 9 times on their last tour, I couldn't wait to see them again and they didn't disappoint. Highly recommended for their high-energy performances, awesome stage presence and for making you feel like you are a part of something huge. Amazing!
I was a big BLue October fan before the concert but after meeting Justin and seeing his charisma I came home and downlaoded all their old music. He has such deep lyrics that you can see loud and clear at their concert mean alot to him. I was 8 mths pregnant when I seen them and Justin was such a down to earth guy he stopped and signed my baby boys first autograph. I cant wait to see them again.
The show was small but very well performed and intense. I felt they did an excellent job performing all their songs. I would definitely go again.
I would recommend Blue October to anyone that wants to hear an awesome band.
I bought the tickets original for my oldest son and myself to go. I'm 51 and he is 29. We both love their music. I ended up buying a total of 5 tickets. I took two sons and their girls and I very much enjoyed the band. I would go again if possible. I thought I would be the only older person there, boy was I wrong. Us old folks out numbered the younger generation. My younger son (25) didn't think I would enjoy the show or know any of the words to the songs. He was really surprised when I started singing.
Sweet show. Blue October filled the theater with excitement and they sounded as good as on CD. its was great how they interacted with the crowd...even posing for pictures as they were singing. The Kin were equally as good and introduced me to a great band. Show was a great value at only 15$
This show was a birthday gift to a friend and I was not a fan of Blue October myself. I left though with a heightened respect for their stage show. The music was loud and intense, as any rock show should be, and I found myself dancing around even though I didn't know the songs. This was my first trip to the Emerald Theatre and I highly recommend it. It is small enough to see the stage well from the top and the energy during the show almost blows the ceiling off.
This is the first time I saw them and I want to see them again aloready!!!!!
Having never been to the Eagles Club/The Rave/Eagles Ballroom I was very unsure of that I would see anything of the concert (I am super short, below 5 feet) but I was too excited to care. Blue October has been a favorite band of mine for a few years and getting a chance to see them was like winning the lottery. And even though I couldn't move, I was seperated from my friends, and I had a fat lady pushing against me who stunk, I was still no more than 10ft from the stage and so the rest didn't seem to matter. It was the most amazing concert of my life and I can't wait till they come back cause I am never going to miss another show.
Great venue, band can really play live! The lighting was incredible, and the setlist was perfect. If I ever get a chance, I will see Blue October again!
