Great venue, good show!
by 619 Sports on 8/5/25The Sound - Del MarRating: 5 out of 5The Sound is a new venue and I think pretty well-designed. We bought three GA tickets and those give you access to any standing area, downstairs or upstairs. We found a standing row behind the paid seats in the middle up top that gave us a really clean view of the stage. Access to restrooms and concessions is easy and plentiful on both levels. As for the show, the opening act was a fill-in, someone named Caleb I believe? He pretty much sung background on his own tracks which were playing over the speakers, screamed a little and did a backflip. Not great. By contrast, d4vd was a more commanding presence on stage than I had expected, and a stronger voice as well. He was joyous and energetic, which gave a number of his songs a lot more verve than I heard on his studio album. I came away quite impressed with d4vd and look forward to the growth of his career!
