All in all, it was just...FANTASTIC!!!
by SevargMT on 7/1/25Stage 271 - GrantRating: 5 out of 5This show was at the smallish Choctaw Casino (Grant, Oklahoma) STAGE 271 but it was the best show I think I've ever seen anywhere! There wasn't a sold out crowd, which worked out well for everyone. After the first song Aaron asked the house security to please let everyone just come forward - the crowd was very scattered. It turned the show into a perfect, intimate performance. The band sounded awesome, they played the songs perfectly and even though in a couple of unexpected [to me anyway] tracks from the distant past by The Eagles (Hotel California) and AC/DC (Highway to Hell - sang PERFECTLY by Mark Klotz). Part way though Aaron told everyone that when the show was over to head on over to their merch corner (I'd never seen one at STAGE 271 before...) and that they wanted to meet everyone and hang out for a bit - Fuel could do this regularly, but it was the first time I've seen anything like that happen. Pretty dang cool! The show was just about 10 minutes from my house and I almost didn't go - I had never seen Fuel before but have listened to and enjoyed their music for years. I'm very, Very, VERY glad that I went! This was truly a "two thumbs up"show! Fuel has moved up to the top of my list of great bands from this one show. Thanks guys!!!
