Elvis Costello & the Imposters Tickets

The show had different arrangements of the classics . The band is great

Totally surprised that Nick Lowe was the opener! Our seats were great!

Not enjoyable listening. I didn’t pay much for my tickets but even if free..wasn’t worth wasting my time.

The show and the artists were great as expected! The sound was not what I expected from the Lyric. It was horrible, Nick's vocals were muffled and Elvis was way too loud. Other people complained too. I do audio for a living, I am getting tired of going to events with bad sound and people who call themselves audio engineers or A1's can't mix sound. It's getting to where I'll stay home and listen to my sound!!!!

We sat in the fourth row of the balcony and the song lyrics could not be understood. The rest of the sound was OK.

Though I like many of the fans in the room, was hoping for all the old stuff, I know enough to appreciate the breadth of the man’s 45 year catalog of music. However, slow dogging Allison to the tempo for dramatic effect put Elvis behind the band and sounding a bit flat at times. From our seats, the sound was dark and unintelligible The Line Array was not high enough to get any focus into the upper rows. We were seated in Row T which was at least 10ft above the top box. At over 100 ft back, there was little to no midrange. You could not hear Elvis when he was speaking to the audience at all. Vocals were very unintelligible throughout the night overall. The highlight turned out to be Nick Lowe being backed up by Los Straightjackets. We saw Los Straightjackets open for Tom Petty back on the Echo tour. By themselves, their schtick wears thin after the first three or four songs, but as a back up to Nick Lowe, they were awesome and the perfect complement.

I've seen Elvis 5 times over the years. You don't return to see an artist 4 times if you did not enjoy the show you have seen. I am sorry to say that this concert was just not up to par. There were sound balance issues from the start, and looking at reviews from other stops on the tour, this is not a problem isolated to Syracuse. It is sad to think that this issue, identified early in the tour, has not been addressed. I seems as if they could not get the levels right, and their solution was to crank everything to 11 and hope that nobody noticed. The best way to describe the resulting sound was muddied and oppressive. Individually each of the band members was excellent, and Elvis' voice is still strong, but collectively, the show was a bit of a mess. I was glad when it was over, and he was smart to perform his encore numbers without first leaving the stage; I'm not sure he would have been enthusiastically encouraged to return. On a positive note, the opening act, Nick Lowe, was excellent. I would have loved to have heard another 45 minutes of his act and a bit less of Elvis...sad :-(

After all these years I finally had the pleasure of seeing Elvis Costello and the Imposters. Like a fine wine Elvis has just gotten better with age. I have never once had a performer posses the ability to get me out of my seat and involved with the show, I tip my cap. Plus realizing that Tom Kennet(SpongeBob) and Bobcat Goldthwait were seated directly behind me was a true one of a kind experience. The ticket was costly but in the end I was no longer second guessing the decision as I experienced a once and a lifetime performance. No small debt of appreciation out to Nick Low and The Los Straightjackets for bringing the boogie!

Good show. Enjoyed the storytelling but sometimes it was hard to understand. Light show was fun. I think it would have been great to have Nick Lowe and Los Straitjackets do some songs w/Elvis and the Imposters! Was kind of hoping they would do that and rock out a little bit. Looking forward to the next tour!

Was a rocking good time. Nick Lowe was excellent and Elvis didn't disappoint!

While I understand times change and people grow and Elvis is doing some new stuff, the concert was a bit slow. Still good though.

I saw Elvis and the Attractions along with Rockpile & Mink DeVille 45 years ago at the Landmark Theater. I much preferred that show to this one. Kudos to Elvis for playing new stuff if that's what he wants to do, but I wanted some more familiar music, too. The Imposters were great, and I loved the set from Nick Lowe with Los Straightjackets. The sound was somewhat muddy & I had good seats in the loge, too. I wanted to be more impressed with this show. Elvis didn't meet my hopes.

seemed a bit full of himself. they seemed like a jam band more than the band that had so many classics. And the twist he put on most of those songs weren't great. I like a band switching up a song, but he did not do a great job with his versions.

Elvis Costello and Nick Lowe were both awesome. Played until 11 pm. I only wished Elvis played more of his hits and a little less on the songs nobody ever heard of

Vocals were not clear. Music overpowered the vocals

I have been an Elvis Costello fan all my life and I have been to hundreds of concerts. Until this particular show I have never walked out of a show because it was bad. I'm not sure if he's having any health issues but he sat for the duration of time that I could tolerate listening to the performance and he could not sing to the point where it was just painful to watch. Not thrilled about the money that I spent to see him as it was so bad I had to walk out

We were thrilled when we walked into this venue for the first time-- a bar right behind us, great view off the side of the stage in section 104, and sound quality was sweet! Elvis entertained like only he can. Too bad I couldn't hear half of what he was singing as the bar patrons never went to their seats (if they even bought a drink). A band of 5 women stood directly behind our seats above us, singing/screaming, cackling loudly and making crude comments about what they'd like to do to Elvis... Two staffers stood off to the side of them just a few feet away but did nothing! I didn't pay to hear these rude women and I'm surprised the staff ignored it all. You had one job! Several people left, as did we. Never again.

Great performers but inaudible. This former minor league ballpark has horrible acoustics. We've now been to several shows, sat up front and in the grandstands, and the sound is lousy everywhere. Sound reverberates -- bouncing off the grandstands opposite the stage, the floor (the baseball field was paved over), and the multi-million dollar fiberglass roof suspended above. The City of Bridgeport and LiveNation splurged on the roof and over-the-top backstage facilities, but the house sound is atrocious. Word is spreading -- and artists who care about their fans should steer clear of this arena

I am not a big fan of seats, but I understand it happens. Ultimately, I had a great view of the stage and the sound was on point. Sadly, Elvis Costello put on one of the longest, most meandering sets I have ever experienced. I grew up going to rock concerts with my mom and continue to go to live shows from punk, to hip hop, to rock to reggae. This set just sucked so hard. Every now and again, the band would be trying to sync with Elvis as he barely showed concern. And when the show was starting to kick up a bit, Elvis would cool the crowd down with a plain porridge of a story and then play three buzzkill tunes. I left confused, bitter and wondering why someone so beloved by so many could do such a thing to his fans. Why, Elvis? Why couldn't you just give Boston the rock it deserved.

Elvis Costello and the Impostors played for two hours straight. The performance was incredible.
