Ever since the release of their 2008 EP Chunk of Change, Passion Pit’s unique brand of indietronica has appealed to fans of both indie rock and electronic dance music, generating heaps of praise from those bastions of hipster cred otherwise known as music blogs. With the release of sophomore album Gossamer in 2012, the band kept crowds moving with a collection of ambitious and impeccably produced gems like “Take a Walk” and “Constant Conversations,” earning the album a No. 4 position on the Billboard 200. Passion Pit originated as the solo project of frontman Michael Angelakos, who penned the project’s first songs for his girlfriend before enlisting some of his classmates from Berklee College of Music to start a group. The band’s debut full-length Manners (2009) received praise from critics and bloggers for its catchy and danceable songs, including breakthrough single “Sleepyhead” and kaleidoscopic electro hit “The Reeling.” On tour in 2013, Passion Pit has been treating fans to high-octane live performances that perfectly capture the spirit of their sparkling pop anthems.
This was one of the best concerts I've ever been to! Passion Pit was amazing live and the opening act Joy Formidable was really good to! I LOVED this concert!
Awesome band great venue what more can u say! Passion pit sounded great!
I have seen Passion Pit before at a festival but seeing them headlining and able to do a full-length set was just no comparison. Michael Angelakos delivered stunning vocals, including being able to hit his most iconic high notes, definitely impressive since they were just four shows out from the end of the tour. Michael is a great showman, interesting to watch and engaging readily with the crowd.The venue was packed, and the crowd a bit more obnoxious than usual, but that is obviously no fault of the band or venue. I only wish that I had bough tickets to the upstairs "pew section" so that my view could have been I hampered by 6 foot plus dudes (and I am not a short girl at 5'8"). Additionally, the Joy Formidable brought great energy and swagger for an opener. All in all, a really fun night!
I really enjoyed this show because the venue was small enough to feel close to the action and Passion Pit was on point. Great performance!
I've seen Passion Pit a couple of times, but this is the best show I've been to. They are such a fun and talented group. I will definitely be there the next time they come to my area.
Passion Pit and the opening band, The Joy Formidable, had an amazing performance. They interacted with the crowd in which made the concert x10 more enjoyable. Since the concert was on Halloween, the band members dressed up and passed out candy on stage. Passion Pit not only played songs from their recent album, Gossamer, but they also played old hits such as Sleepyhead and Little Secrets. Overall, the concert was the best one I have been to yet. I will definitely be purchasing tickets the next time Passion Pit comes to the D.C. area.
Great area, big venue, and nice bartenders. The only thing was the $30 cash only parking stations. The area is also very shady, so you don't want to park somewhere else and have your car or belongings stolen. Besides that, the band played two new songs, it looks like they are planning to release a new album soon.
I have seen Passion Pit 3 times! What can i say? i love them, their music and energy is contagious, i love the venue, the fox theater is beautiful and allow us to be so close to the artist. Cant wait for them to be back!!
This was the fourth time I have seen them and they played great. My biggest gripe was how short the set list was. It was about an hour for the main with a two song encore. This was by far the shortest set of theirs I have seen. All that said I will see them again, maybe it was for the best this time. No fluff or down time just pure unadulterated Passion Pit
What an event. The music and energy of Passion Pit was upbeat and positive. It felt as if the entire amphitheater was dancing. Also, it was my first time at The Greek and the venue is easy to navigate and all staff members (ushers, concession stand cashiers, maintenance, etc.) were super friendly and very helpful. Im not sure if it was a band thing or a house thing, but the lighting was amazing. Best use of lights EVER!
The show really was amazing. I brought two friends that had not listened to Passion Pit previously and am happy to say they are now fans. The light show was spectacular as well as the venue.
Great setting to see a concert. The Joy Formidable rocked out and then Passion Pit brought it home.
Passion Pit was amazing at the Greek Theater, the venue was excellent for acoustics and the outdoor setting in the woods seemed magical. Light show with each song was awesome!
Awesome show, got to upgrade our seats from terrace seats to section A for free! Passion Pit was amazing live!
This show was great. This is an absolutely incredible venue if you sit close enough. The "pit" seats were actually seats so everyone had plenty of room and I was only 6 rows away from Michael and the rest of the band! The kind of music they play is hard to do well live, even harder so to do outside, but this was by far the best I'd ever heard them sound.
Took my son for his 20th birthday. Was a very good time.
Passion pit was amazing!! Great venue and great sound.
The Fox really captured this bands energy. Passion Pit filled the place with energy and put on a great show. .
I opted to spring for the telegraph room and it was 100% worth it. Food, dessert, space, private restrooms and a fantastic private viewing area. Passion Pit were amazing as always and it was just fantastic all around.
Me and my sister were front and center. Couldn't have asked for a better show. Can't describe, just gotta go.
