Iron and Wine Tickets

being a huge fan of iron and wine i was extremely disappointed with this weeks show. When i think of iron and wine i think beautiful melodies, intricate guitar parts with intertwining melodies and harmonies, simplicity at its best with a very intimate vibe. The show this week was the complete opposite of that. A sax section with sam strumming away on a sg backed with distortion, not to mention a rhythm section that sounded like a berklee project band. im all about trying new things but iron and wine was no longer this artful, intimate experience but rather a washed up top forty version of this. I still love his music and always will but i would have liked to have heard something that at least rang art and not a mediocre adult contemporary pop act. i almost walked out.

Great show! Loved the songs! Iron and Wine did not disappoint. Samuel blew me away with the encore. Well done!

This show was not very good. The full band made it sound like a cruise ship cover band at one point. Stick with what made you popular in the first place and stop selling out to big record labels. Maybe try to avoid until he does an acoustic tour.

He forgot his lyrics not once but twice. SMH That bunch of musicians were awful and did not seem to have ever worked with each other ever. They didnt jam ..they made one horrid static sound when they all played together. Where they smoking something? 1st and possibly the last time I see Iron and Wine. I paid too much money for a unshaven hipster who acts all pretentious and oh so pleased with himself. He was too uptight while playing half the time towards the end. No variations in verse etc. Edie was the best thing there even though the "twilight crowd" did not ackowledge it. Sam has talent and has a great voice however he could have done better.

Sam Beam (Iron & Wine) is my favorite artist I know of. Most of the concert had a new groovy twist to his usual amazing guitar playing and melodically perfect voice. Plus, he is charismatic and fun to listen to speaking inbetween songs. His encore was just amazing! Seven minutes of his beautiful song with no one on stage but himself. :D This new cd is just lovely!

Didn't dig E.B., but I+W really good. Great settin

I love Iron & Wine, and I was so excited to see them perform this past saturday at R.C.M.H., but unfortunately, they aren't good live at all! They tried to speed up the tempo on all of their songs, which sounded awkward and didn't give the audience what they wanted, which was their greatest songs played how we know them and love them! I found myself barely engaged the entire concert and was only too ready to leave when it was over. It's a shame, but I still love the band, just won't ever go to a live show again.

Disappointed that he did not sing his popular songs and did not sing most of his older songs that made him popular.

Iron and Wine was AMAZING. Sam Beam is by far one of the most talented human beings I have ever witnessed. He put on quite a show by mixing it up a little bit. I deduct a star for the opening act, Edie Brickell. I think she's smoked one too many joints in her day.

lovely. enjoyable, ambient, almost magical, great venue

I wept throughout the entire thing, it was bonechillingly amazing and something I'll never forget

We ended up switching seats at the last minute; ended up front row center. The first few songs were just Sam, his sister Sara, and a few others playing extremely mellow tracks. After that, he brought out a brass section that helped give the rest of the show a more lively feel. For the encore, he came out alone and played The Trapeze Swinger; those eight minutes were surreal.

good not great. choice of songs was subpar, lots of unknowns. witty man.

Amazing sound, great show! Iron and wine was simply mindblowing.

Sam Beam and I & W couldn't have been better. Love the new stuff and was blown away by the encore.

Iron and wine fab acoustic in radio where perfect!! sam could stand out there with just his ladies and banjo pants fab...... rock on hoping bon iver comes next or they to a tour together

Edie Brickell first part was very nice, but, Iron and WIne was very disappointing. The sound was not good, you could hear the guitar but not the voice, the guy seemed not at ease with the public, made several mistakes, was not nice with his band and obviously they all needed to rehearse more. I enjoy very much I&W from his records (old and very new) but on stage, not at all. May be the guy is not ready yet for big audiences. I almost left in the middle (other did left). Too bad as my expectations were high, but this ended as one of the most disappointing concerts since months.

Amazing. The Acoustics are great! There isn't a bad seat in the house when it sounds so good.

Awesome show!! Best concert I have been to. Took alot of old songs and made them even more amazing!!!! Would recommend Sam to anyone!

Being a huge fan of Sam Beam, I found this show to be quite a treat. However, the less-than-ardent fan probably didn't come away with the same feeling. Similar to the recent performances of the Counting Crows and Bob Dylan, Iron & Wine decided to update and re-orchestrate many of their most notable songs. Fever Dream was unrecognizable and for me quite interesting to hear and Cinder and Smoke may be even more superb with the horn section, fast pace and 70's-esque vibe, but the rest of the remixing left me a bit cold. All in all, if you're a big fan, this tour is not to be missed. If you're seeing them for the first time, await a more intimate venue that highlights just Sam and his guitar.
