When The Fray first burst onto the scene in the early aughts, the Colorado-bred band introduced the world to a profoundly life-affirming form of alt-rock: timeless but inventive, arena-sized in scope but firmly rooted in raw emotion. Over the coming years, their soul-searching songwriting and high-powered sound led to earning four Grammy Award nominations, scoring a multitude of Billboard top 10 hits, and amassing a passionately devoted worldwide fanbase. Their single "How To Save A Life" spent a staggering 58 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 and became the "unofficial theme song" for Grey's Anatomy. Rolling Stone praised their "stick-in-your-head hooks and eloquent narratives," while the LA Times called their music "melodically rich." The Fray's debut album How To Save A Life (2005) is certified double-platinum in the US and has been declared one of the best-selling digital debuts of all time.

Jack Mannequin rocked the house! They could have been their own main act. The Fray's sound was incredible! I love them more than ever!
First and foremost, The Fray was Amazing! They seemed to play forever and knew how to work the stage!
They were amazing! I would def go see them again...
Great show - unbelievable lights and effects - musically one of the best acts I've seen
I'm a huge fan of both bands, but I've been a fan of Andrew McMahon for a lot longer than The Fray. I definitely would've liked to see The Fray open for Jack's, quite honestly. Both had awesome stage presence and put on a killer show. The Ampitheater has some stellar acoustics so they both sound amazing.
Jack's Mannequin was a very talented opening act who fit well with the crowd for the Fray. The Fray played a lot of their newest album and were very strong vocally and musically. There were quirky elements like a ghost on stage that made it fun. I would recommend going if you are in a chill mood though because it is not pump up music.
I think the concert was FANTASTIC. I've seen the Fray numerous times and have always thought they were amazing, but I have never loved them as much as I do right now after seeing this show ;)
I've been to 4 fray. Concerts and this was by far the best!!
Left the Fray after four songs to go see Flogging Molly and Anberlin, and didn't regret it for one second. Jack's was worth the ticket price.
Both bands are insanely talented and their passion and skill is so obvious through their performances. This was the second time I had seen the Fray and I would see them again in an instant! I wish Jack's Mannequin was able to play more songs...Andrew McMahon is a God on the piano. UNBELIEVABLE SHOW!
The start of the show was horrible with the opening band which nobody around me knew the name. The lucky thing is that this was their last show with The Fray. After a horrible begining Jack's Mannequin got the crowd moving. They got a lot of crowd participation. I have never heard of this band, but everyone liked them after they started playing. The Fray opened up with their song "Happiness" and then rolled into "Chasing Cars." This got the crowd pumped. The ended off with "Never Say Never" and "You Found Me" back to back. I would have given 5 stars if it wasn't for the opening band.
