Blue October are an alternative rock band originally from Houston, Texas. Led by brothers Justin Furstenfeld and Jeremy Furstenfeld and multi-instrumentalist Ryan Delahoussaye since their formation in 1995, Blue October has released 11 studio albums, with their latest, Spinning the Truth Around, split into three volumes unveiled between 2022 and 2024. Following initial chart success from their 2003 single “Calling You,” Blue October’s fourth album Foiled (2006) broke the band into the mainstream with back-to-back platinum-certified singles “Hate Me” and “Into the Ocean.” Foiled became the group’s first effort to chart on the Billboard 200 and kicked off a series of six consecutive Top 10 full-length releases on the Top Rock Albums chart, including No. 1 debuts for Any Man in America (2011) and Home (2016). The band has logged 13 Top 40 singles on the Alternative Airplay chart such as 2008’s “Dirt Room,” 2018’s “I Hope You’re Happy” and 2024’s “Everything We Lost In the Fire."

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!
Excellent concert even though I did not know the first six songs (they were off the latest album which I had not heard yet). Justin performed very well - he was energetic and very into the show. The music was not too loud and the instruments were crisp. I will definitely attend another concert of theirs and would love to take my son & daughter.
They started off by playing their new album, Approaching Normal, in full!! I'm sure I will never experience anything like that ever again. They went on to play several songs from Foiled and some older ones from History for Sale and The Answers. Great show by a great band at a great venue!
THis was the 2nd time I have seen them, and they were even better then the 1st time! Justin is unbelievable!!!
Evident by the speed that tickets sold out, and the lines waiting to get in to the general admission venue, Michigan was ready for Blue October. The band, made their new album come to life, and rocked far longer than I imagained. We hooked up with fans as old as we were (49 & 55), as well as their kids (20 somethings) and we all had a riot. Only down side was that the acoustics in the hall were not as good as I have heard in other places, but the energy more than made up for it.
As always, Justin puts on a fabulous performance. He is very theatrical and has a way of making you feel like you are a part of his music. He looked great after losing a bit of weight. He now has a baby girl, which I'm sure has changed his entire world and outlook on life. I've been following this band since November of 2002 and I've love every cd they've put out! The End, is one of my favorite songs on Approaching Normal. It gives me goosebumps everytime I listen to it. They are a fabulous band and work wonderfully together. They compliment each other. I can't wait for their next cd and hope that they come this way again real soon!
Blue October is a band who shares life with the audience through an opening of their souls. A small hole in my heart was filled with the love of the stories being expressed through miraculous music!
Great show!! This was the fifth time I saw them live and definitely the best show!
The boys rocked The Emerald and all of The Clem - just can't seem to get the CD's out of the changer. Awesome show!
