Franz Ferdinand Tickets

Sounded spot on!!! Great band to see live!!! Super fun!!

I never thought they would visit this area so this concert was a must see! They did not disappoint. Great sounds, and great energy. Played a nice selection of their older albums and new.

Franz Ferdinand put on a great show at the Newport Music Hall. Even standing off the main floor allowed for a great view. Nice light show with the music. A couple of their older tunes were missed, as many songs from their new album were played.

OMG, the concert was absolutely fantastic. They played all the songs I know and love. I would see them again in a heartbeat.

I am still amazed how the easiest way to play music is the easiest way to make a crowd of 2000 dancing !!!! this band plays old school way but it WORKS so well !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! let their fire out of control !!!!!!! and go to enjoy their music. special mention for the 8 hands impro on drum !!!!!!!!!!!

Overall, they sounded great and were pretty fun to watch. They played all their old hits and spanned all their albums. However, I was a little raw that they consciously chose not to play their brand new single "Right Action"; the song I was looking forward to hearing most. On my way out, I caught a glimpse at a setlist that someone had snagged, and saw that they actually had it listed as an option for an encore song, but they instead chose to play the much less interesing "Fresh Strawberries." Seriously? It's practically the title track of their new album. Not to mention their comically oversized prop guitar amps had "Thoughts", "Words", and "Action" emblazoned across the front of them. What a tease. It was still a decent show, and any Franz fan would have enjoyed themselves, but I couldn't help but feel a bit cheated and dissatisfied on my way home that night... which is not the way you want to feel after having spent nearly $80 on a pair of tickets.

Franz Ferdinand delivered one of the most energetic and lively performances I've ever seen. The songs are all catchy and you can dance to all. One drawback of the show was the venue which could be blamed on the band manager. It was at Strathmore in MD and this place is mainly for classical music performances or any sit-down shows. But this is dance/rock show! I wish it took place at the 9:30 club.

I moved from Malaysia to Ohio two months ago and then learnt that Franz Ferdinand was going to perform in my home country for the first time. I complained to a fellow fan who resides in the US and she informed me that Franz Ferdinand was going to perform in my current city. I cannot believe my luck and after many years of being a fan of theirs, I knew I had to see them live on stage. That was my very first rock concert and it was perfect. Their showmanship was really amazing and they just knew how to build up the energy from the crowd. They sound just as good as they do in their recordings. As a 5-foot-tall person, I was lucky enough to be able to see them clearly without having to tiptoe -- much thanks to the hall's layout. The only negative point I have about this entire concert is that I was not able to meet them personally. I would definitely attend their concert again, though.

With high energy and a frenetic pace, Franz Ferdinand got the crowd to its feet for a powerful, rocking 90 minute show. My wife and I were absolutely amazed at their performance. Wow - this fire is out of control!

Did not sit for 90 minutes. Kinetic from beginning to end.

Band was great, just not as big of fan of Strathmore as I thought I would be. Felt more like a high school musical in terms of the setting. Not that that is bad, but didn't deliver the way other smaller venues can. FF played well thought. Drummer was best part of the show.

I've seen Franz Ferdinand several times over the last 10 years and this was the best show I have seen them play. I was worried given the break up and discourse rumors that perhaps the band wouldnt be as enthusiastic on stage but i couldnt have been more wrong. Alex still rules the stage like Freddie Mercury, Nick still rocks his hips like Dwight Yokum, Bob still just stands there and Paul IMO is the BEST drummer of my generation. they played plenty of their older music with a nice blend of their new tracks. I am still in a daze over it. The venue was excellent and more intimate. I wish I could relive that night over and over. ONLY complaint, they didnt sing Michael or Right action?, and I saw the set list because I was in the front and those songs were on it, but they did sing Jacqueline so practically all is nearly forgiven.

Godd sound,the band playing new and old songs. Dancing and enjoying as much as the public. Good place to see concerts. Support band Frankie Rose played a short show with a sound that could be better

Was a fantasic show - so fun to see them live. They had tons of energy. Loved the venue - every hipsters dream.

Franz Ferdinand put on an amazing show... engaging band with great live versions of their songs. Loved the intimate venue too. Becoming an official FF groupie is still being taken into consideration...

Franz Ferdinand played incredibly, had all the energy I could have asked for. Only thing I might want in the future would be being better able to hear Alex Kapranos interact with the audience - his voice always melded with the crowd chit-chat.

Franz is my favorite band and they are even better live! The opening band, Frankie Rose, was really great, too. I bought a cd and a record, from them. The venue was perfect. I would definitely go to a show there again. And, there is a bar next door with live music and they serve food late into the night. That was my first time in Minneapolis, and it exceeded my expectations.

I love Franz Ferdinand! I drove 2.5 hours and back the same night to see it. Worth the major exhaustion the next day.

You would think that coming across the pond and having all these shows here in the states would put a bit of a damper on the performance be that was NOT the case. They lit up the stage for over two hours and never skipped a beat. Excellent show through and through.

What a great evening! We got to the House of Blues early for dinner. It was our first time there, and had a great dinner and drinks. There was live music in the dining room and that made for a nice atmosphere. Then we went downstairs to the theater and milled around and had drinks before the show started. They have waitstaff at the seats too, which was a nice touch. The opening band was Ume and rocked. Then after an intermission, Franz Ferdinand took stage and blew me away. Those guys were super-polished, which kind of surprised me. They are my favorite band, but I was expecting more of a garage-band sound live. They could have played a huge arena and would have sounded just as good.
