Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros Tickets

Just great. I want to dance like Edward!! The crowd was excellent, the music great but the "overall show" was spectacular.

Absolutely amazing concert. I've been to many concerts, and this one was hands down the best one. Alex has such a beautiful, positive presence and interacts with the crowd a LOT. At one point he got in the middle of the crowd and danced with everyone. I was center middle and during Lullaby he sang right to me, I got so emotional I almost started crying! If you ever get a chance to see Edward Sharpe, hands down do it!!!

Alex was pure energy, and brought out a violinist and the Preservation Hall lead act to join them. The Preservation Hall alone was worth the price of the ticket. What a pairing of talent. Edward Sharpe allowed the audience to choose their next song throughout the night, singing a single verse and chorus to get it all in. Had 3 minutes til the curfew and they launched into a final song.

I don't know what show these other Stir reviews saw, but I thought it was terrible. I've never seen the Cove so empty or so many people walk out early. Maybe my expectations were too high, but I haven't seen them since Jade left the band and wow.... The 'magnetism' - and Magic is gone. I do not care for most of the new Album - they're old stuff is much more my vibe. Alex came on stage with a nearly empty bottle of wine and a joint and pretty much didn't act like he cared about anything during the show - felt he was just goin through the motions. They really should just stop playing some of their old songs if their solution is to have the audience sing Jade's parts, just terrible. I would see them in a heartbeat again if Jade was back, but as they are now, I'm not feeling them anymore.

It was red, then encased and black and seems now that anything this band does is golden to me.

Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros just don't have the same vibe without a female vocalist on stage. The lack of female presence puts a big damper on the performance of their biggest hits. Preservation Hall Jazz Band made the show worth seeing, especially when they joined ESATMZ on stage.

I so enjoyed this show. I discovered Edward Sharpe's music about a year ago and I totally enjoy it. I'm so glad he came to our area. Played many of my favorite songs and exuded much energy. I also enjoyed the Jazz band....especially when they did a song together. Loved it, loved it, loved it!!

Where do I begin? They only played for 1 hour. Alex was wasted - the time between songs was ridiculous. I felt sorry for the band. He was obnoxious and was letting drunk fans talk into the mic. They didn't have a setlist.

The concert was such an awesome experience! Everyone there seemed to be enjoying the music and there were positive vibes all around. The people sitting seemed to be really enjoying the music and those up front seemed to be having the time of their lives. It was a blast.

The Zeros come on stage with amazing energy that filters out into the crowd. Their lead singer Alex Ebert comes into the crowd quite often to connect with fans, dancing, singing, sharing stories. It had been 5 years since I saw them last and I will see them again even if it's another 5 years from now!!!

Hands down one of the best concerts I've EVER been to. They were amazing and interactive and fun. Would go again in a heartbeat.

The show started at 6:30. They did a really cool open mic event, where 5 local artists played one song. It was a beautiful and well executed idea. After the open mic, we stood there for over an hour just waiting for the band to come out. When they did, they played their record (of which has not been released) and left. Alexander had a good stage presence, and I enjoyed sharing silly looks with him. Overall, I would have enjoyed it more if I had heard the record beforehand. The new sound they are going for does not resonate with the heartfelt, upbeat sounds of their other albums. I usually walk away from their concerts feeling lifted, joyful and alive. This particular show didn't feel as connected and warm.

Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros only played for an hour from 8:30 to 9:30 pm and did not play an encore. I was pretty disappointed.

the show was simply all the songs on the new album. of course it was great!!! the venue was nice and small but roomy enough even though sold out, there was still room to dance, which is always important. my only negative about the show was that it was too short. i wish they would have played more songs, but it was great to hear the new album ahead of release.

I saw Edward Sharpe last year on the Lawn on D, and it was one of the best concerts I had been to in a while. He sang all the classics, "Home," "Janglin," "40 Day Dream," etc. On Monday, he sang NONE. He came out, made some jokes, made us fall in love with them AGAIN, and then broke our hearts. He played his entire new album, that has yet to be released. We could sing along to one song "No Love Like Yours," but after that, it became a waiting game. We waited. And Waited. And--wait! 45 minutes later he goes "That's the album thanks guys" and walks off of the stage. He didn't play one classic song. One song that is the sole purpose we all bought $50 tickets to see him perform. And he leaves, not even an hour after coming on stage. Will NEVER see him again. Trying not to listen to him on Spotify anymore, but god damnit his old tunes are so catchy.

Wow after a bit of hype and excitement was I really dissappointed with the show. Firstly, they only played songs off the new album(absolutely none of the stuff everyone knows)and at the end they said "well that's it" and walked off the stage - a very short set. It happened so quickly that the fans thought it was some sort of joke. No encore - no love for the fans. To their credit, the band sounded pretty good.

I had such high expectations of their performance at the Sinclair, Cambridge. Unfortunately, what transpired was a gig that was lacking in imagination, passion and length (1 hr). They started off well with an energetic song but from there things started to go rapidly downhill. The lead singer seemed distracted and disengaged. His interactions with the audience were rambling and mainly pointless. Their set list was exclusively new tracks - not a problem theoretically but when that music is sub par, it makes for a pretty lackluster, self-indulgent show. The band themselves played well but you got the impression it was a the "Alex" show and his influence put a dampener on the entire event. The gig finished rather abruptly with no encore or crescendo and the crowd shuffled out awkwardly with minimal applause and plenty of grumbling. Some comments we overheard on the way out: "well that put me to sleep", "are you sure we saw the right band?" , "do they know we paid over $200 for these tickets?", "can I ask for my money back?". Its a shame...they have lost a fan.

Amazing! Best moments: When Edward Sharpe came down off the stage and danced in the crowd and made his way to the way back. Also, when the Preservation Hall Jazz Band came on to play with them. And finally, when Man on Fire was sung. And 40 Day Dream.

no jade. alex made the audience sing most of 'home' and was generally seemingly depressed throughout the show. preservation hall jazz band was great.

It was a fun concert and a very nice venue. However, they did take very long to come on stage and maybe only really started playing at 9. Concert ended at 10:30 due to neighborhood noise regulations. The main singer was very engaging and hung out with people after the show for their own mini concert, etc. I very much enjoyed both opening acts.
