PLAIN WHITE T'S IN CONCERT:
Pop-punk outfit Plain White T's is anything but plain live -- the band has been packing a punch with their driving guitar sound, upbeat melodies, and sprightly showmanship since 1997. Whether they're stripping it down with their acoustic smash-hit "Hey There Delilah" or getting fans to sing along to "1,2,3,4", Plain White T's sound just as sharp live as they do on their recordings. A veteran touring act with showmanship to the gills, the five-piece gives concertgoers an unforgettable experience every time they hit the road for one of their exciting tours.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Chicago-based pop punkers Plain White T's first formed in 1997, getting their start playing local bar and restaurant gigs. When frontman Tom Higgenson was involved in a near-fatal car accident two years later, he penned a collection of reflective songs while recovering that ultimately led the band to pursue music full-time. They released three albums in the early '00s, but didn't achieve mainstream success until 2006 with Every Second Counts, which was certified gold in the US and featured the No. 1 hit "Hey There Delilah". The band immediately launched to international fame after the release, set out on a tour with Motion City Soundtrack, and played their own sold-out headlining shows. The pop-punk act continued to release more popular tunes like "1,2,3,4" and "Rhythm of Love", both of which were played in heavy rotation on alternative radio across the country. With several platinum-selling records, two Grammy nominations, and a hit-filled catalog under their belt, Plain White T's are show-stopping performers who treat fans to all of their popular tunes on perennial can't-miss tours.
FANS WHO BOUGHT TICKETS SAY:
"I always thought this band was good... but I never saw them live before. The live show is full of passion, honesty, and energy. They were absolutely AMAZING. Each band member is extremely talented. A MUST-SEE!"
"NO WORDS can explain how AMAZING this night was! Plain White T's put on a FUN and energetic show, get the crowd involved, and keep you dancing until the end! This show will be a LIFETIME MEMORY!"
"The Plain White T's never disappoint. In addition to being a great band, they are great entertainers."
Had a great time! the band was amazing live they sound the same as on record... and they added some fun covers... we had a great time they signed some things in the middle of their set and even sang happy birthday to someone! The crowd was pretty young but not troublesome! Great show!! definitely recommended!
My wife, two boys and I went to this event that involved three other groups before Plain White T's took the stage. The first band whose name the band did not even mention had a heavy metal sound to them. Their name was not worth mentioning. The drummer was out of place by stripping down to his boxers at a "family friendly event". Day's Difference, the second band, demonstrated much potential. As my wife said, they had "star appeal". I agree. They interacted with the audience very well and were appropriate for this event. The third group, Company of Thieves, had a lot of spunk. The Plain White T's were more sophisticated than I anticipated. Like Days' Difference, these guys knew how to interact and entertain. My boys recently began play acoustic guitar, and this was a great group to which they could make this connection. When we discovered that they were switching venues, we decided to take our two boys. I glad we did. Nevetheless, we should not have showed up so early to see the early act. The boys were a little tired by time we got to the T's. I appreciated the clean cut simplicity of the group. The acordian was a delight to hear. My wife and I are looking forward to their return to Nashville in the Fall at the Ryman. Now that will be a great atmosphere.
Too many kids. The show would've rocked if it was held at another venue. There were not enough people to fill up the place. However, overall the show was exceptional. Company of Thieves were phenonmenal!!! Plain White T's were equally good but their show would've been better with an energetic crowd of fans.
Jim and I shared a table with a family from Indiana. Yes, they drove that far for their beautiful young lady to reward her for a job well done in school! They and We had the best time at this music show! The band was terrific and the venue excellent! Tho I have to say this: when will people ever learn manners at public events? If you want to stand and be within arm's length of the band?.....get on the floor in front of the stage! NOT in front of the people at their tables. Luckily, Jim was able to convince the man blocking the little girl's view...to stand elsewhere. Thank you Plain White T's and Newport for a fun, affordable and awesome concert!
I went to this show to see Company of Thieves and they were Amazing! I hope they come back soon.
