SIXX:A.M. IN CONCERT:
Since forming in 2007, hard rock supergroup Sixx:A.M. has wowed concertgoers around the world with their arena-sized sound and high-octane live performances. The band brings a wealth of cred and experience to the stage -- Mötley Crüe guitarist Nikki Sixx, Guns N' Roses guitarist DJ Ashba, and acclaimed singer/producer James Michael form a triple assault, treating fans to a world-class rock spectacle chock-full of blistering vocal screams, wailing guitar solos, and outsized showmanship. From the anthemic chorus of "Life is Beautiful" to the thrash-worthy beat of "This is Gonna Hurt", Sixx:A.M. keep the energy high on their must-see tours, treating ticket buyers to epic sets that leave them feeling thoroughly rocked.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Nikki Sixx, DJ Ashba, and James Michael joined forces in 2007 to record The Heroin Diaries Soundtrack, a companion album to Sixx's autobiography The Heroin Diaries: A Year in the Life of a Shattered Rock Star. What began as a one-off studio project quickly became a full-fledged band when the album took off, landing several singles on the rock charts and drawing the band out for an unexpected tour. While on the road the group began penning new material that eventually formed the basis of their sophomore album, 2011's This Is Gonna Hurt. The record peaked at No. 10 on the Billboard 200, spawning the chart-topping single "Lies of the Beautiful People" and drawing the band out for more tour dates. In addition to performing with Sixx:A.M., both Nikki Six and DJ Ashba have continued to play guitar in Mötley Crüe and Guns N' Roses, respectively. In 2014 the band thrilled fans with their third album Modern Vintage, a hard-hitting collection of tracks that make a perfect addition to their adrenaline-filled sets on tour.
Came to the show to see Apocalyptica. They were amazing and had a great show. Only con was that it felt like their set was too short. I already want to see them again. SixxAm was ok. But you'd have to be a fan to be into them. Vamp was not very good, in my opinion.
first off, credit to vamp. traveled a long way to play in philly (japan). and, they brought their a game. second. apolyptica. 3 guys feeding cellos through marshalls. and they rocked it out. it's hard to tell who was having more fun. the band, or the audience. if you've never listened to them, they are worth trying! another group that traveled half-way across the world (Finland) to take it to the philly fans... and they didn't disappoint. as for sixx am. many bands sound better recorded than live. this was NOT the case with six am. they sounded better live than recorded, hands down! they truly enjoy what they play, and appreciate their fans. they played up until the last second to make sure that none went away dissatisfied. the energy level was cranked to the limit. and, the onstage razzing that they were dishing outr amongst each other was appreciated by everyone that saw it (and, it was hard to miss). they announced that they will be recording another album, and subsequently touring again. a show I look forward to. as for the venue...understand, it is s.r.o. however, the advantage of the electric factory is the atmosphere that a venue like this offers. it is as "in your face" as a concert can (and should) be.
Incredible energy and chemistry between band members. Amazing sound, and great interaction with the audience. From sound, lights, and talented background singers: these guys can put on a sho. I left feeling happy and ready for more concerts. Life is beautiful!
Sixx AM was great, as expected. I had never seen Apocalyptica or even heard of them, but I'm a fan now. Vamps were decent, too. I was on the floor, about 6 persons back from the stage and it was worth being on my feet the whole time. The drummers for all three bands were solid and powerful, and I'm a guitarist. Although the Crue is calling it quits, it's good to know that Nikki will still be around for a while.
Thoroughly enjoyed this show and could not believe these great bands came together right here for us!
Awesome show!! These guys really know how to make their fans happy. They played for 2 hours. Old and new stuff. I do want to say my friend and I went to the Silk City Dinner before the show for food and drinks and James Michael came in. We actually got to speak to him and take a few pictures. He is such a nice down to earth man!! Apocalyptica also did an amazing job! Those guys know how to rock out!!
The venue could not have been more perfect to see the most notorious rocker and his wonderful band. The show was absolutely amazing and I will see them every chance I get in the future. All of the band members made a point to come out and meet their fans and get feedback about the show. Not only am I a HUGE Nikki Sixx fan, but I am also a fan of James Micheal & DJ Ashba who are all classy, positive guys. Go see them if you can!
I was amazed. The group sounded great and spot on! Couldn't have asked for a better night!
I have been a Sixx:AM fan for years was so happy to finally get to see them live. They did not disappoint, what a great Live band!!
First time to one of their shows. It was great, high energy, they played songs from all 3 albums. The banter between Nikki and Asbha was hilarious. Music and vocals sounded perfect. Can't wait to see them again.
I took my niece to see Sixx A.M. as this is her favorite American Band. As a gale that saw her far share of Hair bands back in the day include Motely Crue, I can say this band can still rock with the best of them. James Michael was bringing his energy to the performance with Nikki and DJ jammin the chords to rock the Electric Factory down.
James's voice is awesome live. He has an incredible range. The back-up singers were great and were very much included in the concert. Nikki, James, and DJ seemed to be having so much fun and their talent appeared to be effortless. I loved every minute. I just wish it lasted longer. They played a decent mix of songs from all 3 records. Can't wait until the next tour.
First headlining tour, didn't know what to expect, turned out to be awesome!! Ended up very close at the barricade and had a great time!! vocals were amazing!!
