I have been to countless Jack's shows and to hundreds at the LC. That night the place was too crowded to enjoy a single thing. I know what to expect for a GA show - but this one was unacceptable. I have a decibel card that was considered void the day before the show and after the VIPs were sold out. I honestly wish I didn't make the drive from Cleveland for this show. It was a waste of time.
Andrew's voice is beautiful. Best concert I've ever been to. Better than a Coldplay concert in my opinion. Andrew is so real and kind.
I've been to a lot of concerts but this by far was my favorite. The band sounded amazing and played for almost 2 hours. Even the venue was one of the best with plenty of options as to where to sit or stand.
I was so excited for this show and I was blown away by how great it truly was. I knew this would be a great live performance but it is surreal at how good it was. Andrew is an inspiration to everyone to keep fighting and to never give up, whatever it may be. To know his story and then to see him on stage, you would have never guessed he went through cancer. Just amazing.
Andrew puts on a great, but low-budget show and appears to be having a great time while performing.
I have to say, this was possibly the best show I've been to. Nothing like feeling like I'm in high school again, cruising around and listening to Andrew McMahon's musical genius. From beginning to end, the energy was high and it felt like even though it was a sold-out show, you were right there with them on stage. You can tell he loves what he does, which makes the show so much more intimate and enjoyable.
Have followed Andrew McMahon since his SoCo days. His concerts NEVER disappoint and this time was no different. Love the music and the intimate shows! House of Blues Anaheim was a tough venue, however; I couldn't see anything. I tried so many spots both upstairs and downstairs and my 5'5" stature had to settle for watching it on the television screens. Pretty bummed about that. Still wouldn't have missed this anniversary reunion for anything! So glad to have been a part of it!
It was amazing to see Andrew Mcmahon play Everything in Transit from start to finish. It was something that I thought I would never see him do again.
Andrew McMahon (and Jack's Mannequin) never disappoint and always put on a great show, and this one was especially amazing. Shout out to the House of Blues staff in Anaheim for their helpfulness (I had a broken foot and we needed ADA seating). GREAT VENUE and I will definitely come here again.
This was my 7th or 8th time seeing Andrew/any of his projects in concert. He never fails to put on an amazing memorable show. He is always energetic and gets the audience into the show having an amazing time. He will forever be my favorite musician to see live!
Andrew's performances are always energetic, fun, and memorable, but this first Jack's Mannequin reunion show on New Year's Eve was by far the best show I've seen him play. Maybe it was the energy from the night, it was New Year's Eve after all, or the energy from performing as Jack's Mannequin once again, but it was an incredible, energy filled performance. It brought me back to my late college and early adulthood days, and we all sang our hearts out with Andrew. With around an hour and a half to perform, Everything in Transit only took up about 45-50 minutes of that time. With about 40 minutes left to midnight, Andrew broke out other Jack's Mannequin songs and the crowd loved it. He kept us entertained and singing along right up to midnight. By far the best show I've ever been to.
JM is my favorite band. Something Corporate used to be. I feel inclined to review the band Jack's Mannequin or its frontman Andrew McMahon. But I will try my best to stick to the show: When a person, at least myself, knows her favorite band is disbanding and is given a date for the final show, she works and works and sets alarms to get tickets to a concert out of state. Despite the disappointment of the 11/11 show selling out to scalpers within seconds, I kept trying. I finally got my ticket! I took the trip from Chicago to L.A. I am not alone in this. Fans from all over the country gathered in the beautiful El Rey Theater for this final event. Perhaps its the bias of loving everything about this band and its music, but to say the show was anything less than amazing would be wrong. For the most part, the fans were amazing. I had a drunk group of girls behind me who were upset when their buzz was wearing off, and a girl who did not look up from her phone once for more than 3 seconds to ask her friend if she could see. The sweaty man in front of me filming the entire show annoyed me most when he was drunk enough to NEED to lean on the people around him so that he didn't end up on the floor. But all the other fans were great, jumping and singing along with one another in unison. It was upsetting to know that the band was saying goodbye, but it was uplifting to know of the thousands of dollars raised for the Dear Jack Foundation, and to also know that just because this particular band was coming to an end, the funding for cancer would not. All the favorites were played, from all 3 albums. We heard songs that were hard to play, both emotionally and physically, for Andrew. Dr Jay, a JM original member, came back for the night. In all, this show was AMazing. I cannot wait to see Andrew McMahon perform in the next chapter of his talented, inspirational life.

Jack's Mannequin was amazing as always. I LOVE the energy he puts into his performance. Very happy that I got to see his final performance.
Jacks Mannequin last show was incredible! Amazing to think that this super talented group donated all proceeds to the Dear Jack Foundation Charity to fight leukemia. I'm asking all you Mannequin fans to please check out the DJF website and see how you can contribute to this great cause! EVERY MOMENT of the show was incredible...such high energy and very emotional knowing that this was the last show. Especially touching was the way Andrew treats his fans...I have met him a few times and am amazed at how HUMBLE this talented young artist is.
It had been on my bucket list to see Jack's Mannequin live for some years now and It was wonderful to fulfill that dream at their final performance as Jack's Mannequin. The show was absolutely amazing. It was apparent that Andrew and the guys were out there simply having fun and enjoying those songs with all of us. The energy was so high and unbelievably magical I enjoyed every minute and didn't want it to be over. The El Rey Theater was a great venue because shorter people like me could stand on steps around the floor and still get a great view of the band. Most of all it was a small venue which make the concert very intimate and fun. Overall it was a great night that I will not forget.
This last show was unforgettable. It was purely perfect. No words can describe how much I'll miss the band but treasure their last moment with us.
I would recommend any show andrew puts on! He's an amazing artist! Not to mention he kicks a!# on the piano!
I'm sad this was the last show but if you ever get the opportunity to see Andrew McMahon in any capacity, under any name, do it.
Jack's Mannequin is such a talented simger-songwriter.
