Elvis Costello & the Imposters Tickets

Excellent show. What a musician. Bought the tix last minute- so glad I did.

Slow start of unfamiliar stuff that snuffed out my excitement - expectations were high but diminished as the night wore on - an aging rocker performance- lots of long instrumental plays in order to recharge his battery.

Sound not good. Didn’t like arrangements of classic songs. Too much talking. Left before show was over (which we very rarely do).

The second half was much better than the first half. They were then playing what the audience came to hear, not what they wanted to play. Music was way too loud. Elvis is certainly a chatty Kathy. Drummer was very impressive. Also impressive they played without a warm up band and played for 2.5 hours straight. Glad we went, but would not feel the need to go again.

Elvis was great. The band was great. The audio quality in the Roxy (Atlanta) was great. I hope Mr. costello decides to tour for a bit longer, because I would love to see him again.

Great seat I upgraded at the show and found out that they sell,!

Elvis was really great to see live; a definite "5"rating. The reserved seating was good in theory; we had great seat locations. The seats themselves were terrible to sit in for the 3+ hours, which drove the reduction to a "3"rating. Besides being uncomfortable (I felt like I was seated in a cheap school auditorium), they were too small. You definitely got to know your neighbors well. And don't even ask about when someone had to exit the row. My first (and last) time with reserved seating at the Roxy. I'd rather stand, then sit on those seats again.

Show was ok, he's great, venue was lousy. Folding seats, really? Sound system was horrible!

Amazing show. Can’t wait to see him in town again. The band was fantastic. Charlie Sexton and the horn section was incredible.

Elvis is Elvis, he was great. Audio for horns and keys was on point. Bass and guitar got a little muddy, and in the more up tempo stuff Elvis' voice got lost in the mud (think Radio Radio). Slower stuff (think Alison) was on target. Roxy was decent venue. Seat maps do _not_ show the concrete columns, sections 200/202 might have obstructed view. The floor 101 and 103, your row might get interrupted if you are farther over to the side. Bars in performance area are handy, but depending on the show, someone may stand there and talk loudly. Yes, I'm looking at you, lady.

I have seen AJ Croce before, but this was his best performance. The show was a wonderful mix of his father's original music, some of AJ's original work and some covers of some classic songs form the 50s and 60s. I especially enjoyed the narration between songs! Some folks don't like the artist to spend a great deal of time talking to the audience but listening to stories about his father's career as well as stories about some of the biggest artists of that time period was fascinating! I will see him for the third time as soon as he announces a future show. Cobb Energy is a fantastic venue and as expected sound quality, and lighting were first class and a great match for the performer.

Sat stage left on the balcony. Not a single person could see the artists. The isles were so narrow that no one could get in or out of their seats. Bad venue.

Show was great, venue was mediocre at best............................,........................................

I've never seen Elvis Costello before so I'm really not able to compare his show to past performances. I can't imagine he has fallen off much, because this performance was great. What diminished the show, for me, was the theatre they chose, the "New"Roxy. Costello was great! He played some new songs and old, he told a lot of stories between songs, his band was very sharp, loved his show. What I didn't like is the Roxy. Not a good venue. This is a new facility, built at the same time as the "Battery"complex around the Braves new facility. If I was building a theatre from scratch, I'm certain I would do most things different from this place. We sat front row mezzanine. Could barely see the stage because they crammed two rows of tables in front of the mezzanine. Worse, they aren't really terraced much, so it is difficult to see over the two rows in front of the mezzanine. The room itself is shaped like a shoe box, very narrow but long, with the stage in the short end. That made the perspective of trying to see over the tables very difficult, I have no idea what was on the right side of the stage, as I never saw it. As you might expect from Costello, a performer that has a long reputation as a song-smith and professional, his band was very tight. Unfortunately, the theatre, a 4 sided box of thick, poured concrete walls with thin, black curtains hung over the thick concrete, was an acoustic nightmare. We got to hear every word Mr. Costello sang, in his trademark gravelly voice - TWICE. Once out of the PA and again when it bounced off the hard walls. It is worse than your old high school gymnasium. The room itself is, presumably, the ground floor of a high rise building, which would explain the massive concrete columns throughout the room, which further block the view. Don't buy a ticket if you don't know where these pillars are, they are a terrible nuiscance. Once the first few songs were over, we were able to find, and move to a seat that we could see much (but still not the front right corner) of the stage. Once we settled in, and were able to listen, we enjoyed the event. I feel badly for musicians that have to play this venue, as they probably don't have much recourse for the bad room.

You get to experience the breadth and depth of Elvis’ vast catalgue over two and half hours - with his incredible band - plus horns on many songs. Lots of great stories in between. How lucky we are to be able to see his shows over the years. Not to be missed!

If you’re wanting to hear his massive collection of hits over the years, don’t bother. Elvis performs for sure, but he reimagined some of his songs at different tempos, were different musical styles, so that you may not even recognize them. He plays some songs that aren’t even his that he just find interesting, but not true covers that you might enjoy. He definitely makes the evening musical, in a way, unlike many artist can but don’t expect that you’ll leave feeling like you danced and sang and relive great memories you had when listening to his albums in a younger day

First half was as if the band was working on random new stuff.....second half was fantastic. Sound quality was iffy. One vical mic was warbly. Such a talented band. Seats were partially obstructed by a railing.....so, meh. Glad I went but was not as good as I'd hoped.

I loved the Elvis Costello show last week. He played many songs that were popular but also some more unfamiliar but still it was an exciting show. This is my second time seeing them and I would recommend them to everyone.

The sound mix was awful, no separation at all. We sat in the front center balcony. This was my third show at The Factory and two had inexcusably bad sound mixes.

I thought it was great. Elvis was personable and interacted with the crowd continuously. My favorite part of the night was the story he told leading up to Radio Radio. The concert was very bluesy. Not my wife's cup of tea, but I dug it. The change of pace kept things interesting for three hours. Most of the favorites were included, along with a very eclectic set list. The finale rocked, Steve Nieve sounded great, and Charlie Sexton (and Elvis) shredded. The encore finished with a surprise blues song he hadn't played the night before.
