King's X Tickets

I made my way through the haze of cigarette smoke and hoards of glassy eyed casino zombies with crusty lips and hopeless expressions to the Rock and Brews which was a surprisingly brilliant venue. The staff was friendly and warm. This place reminds me of the old HOB on Sunset. King's X is an amazing band that never disappoints! King's X people are the BEST people. I stood four feet from Ty's amps while the Groove Machine blasted the love and soul deep into my bone marrow for two hours! I joined in the sing along to close out the show with the rest of the First Church of Rock and Roll choir. I left renewed, ready to face the world with the groove in my heart.

Awesome as usual KingsX is one of the greatest bands

I will admit that I'm biased because I'm a huge fan, but these guys sound better than ever and the songs they've chosen are absolutely perfect!

My daughter and I attended this show and as always, Ty, DuG and Jerry gave us their all. The opening acts, Metal Life Crisis and King of Spades were phenomenal!!! These two groups I have never heard of before but, man, such amazing talent that graced that stage. Before the show, we purchased some shirts and I was very happy to see that they had the Dogman shirt available, which is hard to find even online. After the show, we went for the meet and greet with the guys. They are so sweet and kind. They know how to treat their fans, like family. My daughter and I both had a really fantastic night and can't wait till they come back to the shore for another encore performance.

Not only do we love Kings X who was incredible as always , but we got to see Kings of Spade for the first time! They were insane ! Best time can't wait to see kings of Spade again

We drove all the way in from Alabama to catch King's X for two shows in Florida and it was so worth the trip. This show was intense. Great local bands warming up the stage for the most musically sound rock trio to hit the stage ever. King's X rocked the venue like it was stil the 80's. The State Theater was the perfect venue for this event.

I'll never understand why Kings X hasn't broken big in the US. The trio is loaded with talent,has over 10 albums,a signature sound unique to their music and are very approachable for their fan base. Their show rightfully was a mixture of older to newest songs. The dedicated fans that showed up for the Monday night show knew the music well,at times taking over the vocals for dUg Pinnick., giving Ty Tabor his due on his guitar solos and enjoying Jerry Gaskell back in super form from his health problems. Just a great show by a trio that deserves all the praise for what they do. Thanks for a special night,guys!

KX is one of the worlds most underrated (from the public) Rock bands ever. And after 35+ years they can still bring it. The only problem now is that there are so many good songs for them to play, they cannot do it all in a single show! They are completely unique and awesome musicians. The sound was excellent, a perfect evening with my favorite band today.

To see a band like King's X in a small venue setting was beyond fantastic. They had such a great connection with the fans in the audience. Opening with Wecome to the Groove Machine and they touched on nearly every album in their 30+ years during the show. It was especially wonderful to see Jerry Gaskill at the drum kit going strong. The band was clearly having a great time and stuck around after the show to chat with fans, take pictures, and sign autographs. This is definitely one of the best concerts I have ever attended!!!

Kings X and the opening bands gave us a night of excellent musical entertainment. Hats off to all in the bands. Sound mix for some of the opening acts was questionable, as the lead guitar of one band could not be heard by the audience, and as the bass drum drowned out the rest of another band during their opening song. these are things that could have been taken care of at the mixing board while the songs and sets were in play, but the spooundman must have been on drugs. If I am going to pay $30 for a show, I expect more. i will question future events at this venue.

King's X is a band that found it's way into my heart and soul more than 20 years ago. Their live shows are pure magic. The crowd is always very dedicated, knowing the words to all of the songs, and there is an energy in the room unmatched by any other show I've seen. Each time I see them play, I see the same friendly, familiar faces and it feels like we're a big rock and roll family, the band included. They always make time to do a meet and greet after each show, and they've always treated us like family. This show was packed, despite being a rather stormy night, and sort of out of their usual area. I think the guys were rather surprised and happy with the turn out. They rocked through an awesome set list, Dug was in fine form, it was awesome to see Jerry healthy and back behind the drums, and Ty sounded incredible, this set actually featuring Pleiades, which allows Ty a chance to sing lead. I highly recommend that anyone take the opportunity to catch these guys live whenever possible.

Concert was GREAT! I think... I was pretty loaded that night... but it feels like I was pulverized sonically by some good ol' Rock n Soul! Doug Pinnick is absolutely stunning. Ty and Jerry both tore it up... All in all... these boys took us to school!

The show was great! There were some sound problems that eventually were worked out, but the most important thing was that King's X was there. They went deep into their material that night and that made for an even more incredible experience. The band is by far, one of the best when it comes to live performances. and this was no exception. When the crowd is singing along with the band, yon more than one song, you can feel the bond between the band and the fans. As dUg once said, "King's X fans are rabid". There's a reason...

Arrived early as always. My Ninja went on first, and while I did not care for their set, they were mercilessly heckled. Nobody deserves that. Del Sol was good, and could really go places if they improved song writing. I was not expecting to like Kings of Spade. I was so wrong! Great straight ahead rock set, closing with an inspired cover of Piece of my Heart. KX ruled as always. Same set as for the past 14-18 months, but I love em. Always will. 7th time seeing them, but first time since 2009. Hope dUg feels better soon. Fell ill after the Charlotte show.

Every time I see them, they keep getting better. Varied set list, very tight. A couple of times they stopped the song to tune, then started over, which wasn't a negative, it just shows how comfortable they are with the audience, and the audience was with them.

Wasn't their best night, but anyone would have enjoyed their show! They are simply amazing musicians that really enjoy connecting with the audience! Took my son to the show, and he's now a fan! Too bad their instruments wouldn't stay in tune, it was an obvious source of frustration for the band.

I hate to knock a good show, but it definitely didn't live up to the hype I've always heard about King's X shows that just blow you away. They seemed to be half in concert mode and half in practice mode. Doug actually stopped two songs in order to tune. I can't recall the last time I've seen that from a stage. "Here's a fan favorite by request...just kidding! Okay, for real this time." Now, I've never seen King's X live, so maybe that's how it's always been, I dunno. I wondered at points if they'd even gotten together at all to practice beforehand. Doug said they hadn't played together in a while, and for a band like this, it was apparent. Still, it was a very enjoyable show, and I'm glad I went. It's good to know that an "off night" for King's X is still a really good time! Something else kinda strange...Ty played a gibson Les Paul all night. I've never heard of him playing Les Pauls, and since I know he typically uses more than one guitar, it made me wonder if his usual axes didn't make it to the show.

Drove from Nashville to Atlanta to see the show. King's X is like fine wine getting better with age. Wouldn't miss a show of theirs. Venue was really nice. A/C was nice and cold and the club didn't feel overly crowded. Great place to see a show. My first time there.

As always, King's X played a great concern. On exactly when they said they would be and a couple hours later they were done. Afterwards they come out to meet and greet and sign autographs. The venue was nice. Small and comfortable. Not too loud but rocking!

The first three bands of this bill were local with the first one up to play was Push Johnson, a soft rock band from Virginia Beach. While their songs and performance were good, the crowd and response was light. Annie Johnson Band was next, her set was much more energetic than Push Johnson with a mix of original and cover songs including some Rush. The place was starting to fill up and AJB was well liked by the crowd. Next was the Jay rakes Band, I was particularly interested in seeing Jay play based on the recommendation of one of my friends who Jay taught how to play the guitar. With a 16 year old drummer and an experienced six string bass player, Jay ripped through a set of instrumental classic tunes including some Jimi Hendrix. An additional band was added to the bill at the last minute or was not mentioned previously despite touring with Kings-X is Last Perfect Thing from Asbury Park, New Jersey. After listening to Jay Rakes, a band that plays power ballads didn't work for me as much as it did for the rest of the crowd. It's not that they are bad, they are a good band but there is a lot to be said about the play order. Considering the type of music they play, they should have played after Annie Johnson and before Jay Rakes. There was a long delay between Last Perfect Thing and the start of Kings-X that was not explained. Considering that most of the audience had to go to work the next morning, the staff should have made things move along faster. I brought my D200 DSLR to the show to take pictures and it was noticed by the security personnel for Kings-X. The first security person told me no flash pictures at all, the second one countermanded him by saying flash shots for the first two songs only and no video and that if anyone was caught shooting video their camera would be confiscated. I was a little put off by the heavy handedness of all of this, a single announcement should have been sufficient. Fortunately the band is more laid back than their security staff. Doug noticed that there were a number of women in the audience that could not see through the taller people, so he invited them up front. The set included a nice mix of old and new material and they were definitely the crowd favorite as many people in the audience were singing along with the band. The audience had an interesting mix of young and old who enjoyed the show immensely.
