+LIVE+ have sold over 23 million albums worldwide and earned two number one albums: Throwing Copper and Secret Samadhi. Their catalog is filled with such gems as "Lightning Crashes," "I Alone," "All Over You" and "Lakini's Juice," which live on today as classics on rock radio. Throwing Copper--which the band celebrated in 2019 with a deluxe 25th anniversary edition along with a global tour across major festivals, amphitheaters and arenas--produced the band's biggest single, "Lightning Crashes," which was #1 at Modern Rock radio for ten consecutive weeks.
Throwing Copper reached #1 on the Billboard Top 200 and eventually surpassed sales of 10 million albums sold, with Rolling Stone honoring the album with placement on their list, "1994: The 40 Best Records From Mainstream Alternative's Greatest Year." Secret Samadhi (1997) immediately shot to #1 on the Billboard Top 200 and eventually went double platinum. The release of the platinum-selling The Distance to Here (1999) turned +LIVE+ into an international powerhouse and moved the band from arenas into stadiums. +LIVE+ has been and remains today a global concert juggernaut.

Live reunited with its original lineup this past NYE in their hometown of York and put on an amazing show filled with their hits from the 90's. I can't wait to see them during their world tour in 2017 with Ed Kowalczyk back at the helm.
I have seen live (the old Live and the new Live) dozens of times and there was something up between the band members at this show. I won't use names to protect the innocent .. but the lead singer was out of it for this show. He appeared to forget lyrics, was not in synch with the band, and way to often would stop singing and point the microphone at the audience. It was probably one of the best perforemnces I have seen from the remaining members of the band .. but you could tell that there was trouble in paradise between the lead singer and the bassist,
totally awesome show love the new singer and Candlebox unplugged was the best show I've seen
This band put on one of the greatest live shows I've ever seen. Did not know what to expect with a new singer. I was blown away to say the least. Very high energy and crowd involvement. It always makes a difference when you can tell the band loves what they do. They played every song you hoped to hear and more. As a bonus, we were treated to Kevin Martin, of Candlebox, as an opening act. If you were a fan, are a fan or don't even know Live, you will enjoy this show.
A really great show! Between LIVE and Kevin Martin it was 3 shows in 1!!! Everyone ROCKED!!!!
The band has outstanding energy and an amazing sound. Great 90's band that has not missed a beat. Their new music is directly in line with their mid 90's sound. Every rock music lover should check them out.
Great show. Chris Shinn continues to do the old stuff justice and the entire band was in top form. Really great, high energy show. Chad Gracey can still drum like a king too. Almost fell over when Kevin Martin brought out the Gracious Few/Candlebox crew for an acoustic set to open. I completely missed that when I bought the tix so it was the best kind of surprise. Amazing.
The new singer is nothing short of a train wreck. He screwed up the lyrics of exactly 7 songs. The musicianship in the band remains stellar but the singer is a an embarrassment. They brought Kevin martin from Candlebox out to sing a song and the contrast in talent level was plain to see.
LĪVE is better than ever. I've seen them 30 times since 1994, I've never seen them play with this much fire and compassion. Chris Shinn is amazing. Give him a shot, you'll be hooked. Go see them! Trust me!
New guy very good; good vibe. I woul see them again.
Unbelievable show. Moved quickly through the set and played with passion and power. Set list comprised of a heavy dose of Throwing Copper as well as choice tracks from Mental Jewelry and Secret Samadhi. New songs came off great. Highlights include Lakini's Juice and White, discussion. Not to be missed.
I loved hearing all the songs from old to new! Chriss Shinn is an amazing addition to my favorite band! Can't wait to see them again!
Saw LIVE on 28 Oct at the House of Blue in Hollywood with their new lead singer. I have seen them too many times to count and this show was amazing; up there with their best show I saw 20 years ago ... Throwing Copper Tour. The energy of the band and the positive vibes was contagious. Looking forward to more amazing shows in the years ahead.
They blew it up. Live has their old energy back. New singer Chris Shinn was great. Different but great. Old stuff was on point, new stuff was really good and the more I listen to the album I like it more and more. I can't wait until they come back on their next tour I will go see them for sure. Glad to have Live playing live again, it was way too long without them.
Live has the same sound as in the 90's! They were incredible. I wish the show went longer though.
Live's performance was great, but the sound was very muddy. If I didn't already know all the songs (except the new one) by heart, the show would have been much harder to appreciate. You couldn't hear the drums at all, which was a shame considering how hard Chad was obviously working. Not sure if that was the band's sound guy or the venue's, but please be aware for future shows.
Simply put, the show was amazing. The band sounded amazing. I was expecting the worst but Live came out like a man on fire. Can't wait to see them again.
This show was just ok. The biggest problem was that the bass was so ramped up that everybody else sounded strained and totally unbalanced. It was distracting. I wanted to say hold up! Start over! How their sound guy could not hear that is beyond me. Either that or the bass player was playing live and that apparently was a huge mistake. Other than that they played about 10 songs? Short, short show. But I'm not gunna lie. With that bass pounding my chest I wasn't too sad. They will continue to not be able to fill even small venues if they can't get the basics right.
I enjoy the show very much, great artist. I wanted to see them for a very long time and I am very satisfied with the show. Great experience, would recommend to anyone.
