The Marshall Tucker Band Tickets

Great concert! The keyboard player was very talented. The lead singer needs to keep quiet and let the other guy take over the show.

The show was good when they played but i really didn't care for the stand up comedy show. far too much talking going on. they should have played a short set or take a break 1/2 way thru

Location was fine but disappointed with the band. They didn't play very long at all. Songs they did play were great.

Having been a lo-o-o-ongtime MTB fan and multiple concert attendee (although my last encounter was in 1989), I was shocked and dismayed at their pathetic performance in Snoqualmie. Maybe 1 hr. and 15 min. with no encore would've been adequate had it been loaded from top to bottom with hits, but instead, vocally-challenged frontman Doug Gray bantered mindlessly (and tried to sing solo without the band ... ouch!) for at least 30 of those minutes. The other musicians (Marcus Henderson and Rick Willis, in particular) were outstanding performers when Doug got out of their way and let them handle the singing. But as it was, I couldn't believe this was the group that used to roll a couple of hours or more with amazing muscial wizardry and a minimum of on-stage distractions. I was truly and deeply saddened. Either clean it up, Doug, or let MTB RIP.

The concert was good. Could of been better if there was less talk and more music. and less drunks. Also the seats could of been just alittle bet more apart.

I have waited too long to see Marshall Tucker!! I have always loved their music. And as for the band playing, they were fabulous, but the singing was not there. And i think we were lucky to get 6 songs in all and the rest was talk talk talk...worst concert i have ever been too..so glad i did not pay lots of money for this one.

Too Much Talk ?.Not enough Music for a Southern Rock Show. Nice venue though.

The lead singer and front man was either drunk or way past his prime, or maybe both. When he sang their signature piece, "Heard It In a Love Song," the words were unintelligible. He was more interested in getting the women to adore him, wrapping their arms around his legs while he made lewd remarks, than he was in entertaining the audience. He enjoyed telling us, twice at least, maybe more if I missed some, that he was 61 years old. The musicians were excellent, especially the lead guitarist and the flute player. We enjoyed the music and endured the monologues between pieces. I'm glad we have their work on recordings so we won't have to put up with that guy again.

The show started out good, even excellent. Pretty much what you would expect. After a few songs, it hit a BUMP and never got on track again. The bump was Doug Gray and it didn't matter to him if anyone had a good time except his self. Would have been better off staying home, listening to records with some friends. Will not go to another show of the Marshall Tucker Band. Too many good bands that want and do put on great shows and play great music.

True, the two lead Tucker boys have passed on, but many bands have lived on with some great replacements. If the replacements would have simply sang the songs, we would have been happy. But no. We ended up walking out less than 45 minutes into the show. We kept hoping the show would get better. The only original band member was a terrible singer and was clearly on an ego trip. Or perhaps he was just smashed. The guy playing the sax had good vocals, but we didn't get to hear much from him. Instead, it was like listening to a bad jam session. Or bad karaoke. Altogether, too bad. We were really looking forward to it. Way past time to wrap up touring guys. Consider our ticket cost a contribution to your retirement fund.

Much anticipated evening out to watch and listen to this famous, Southern Rock band. After the first song, we sat and endured numerous, drawn-out chatter from the lead singer, which for the most part was incomprehensible. The band was tight, but the lead singer destroyed the evening by continuously interrupting the music to vocalize nonesense. Many folks left but we stayed; however, we would not recommend seeing this band until the lead singer steps aside.

The music was what I remembered and hoped for, but the lead singer nearly ruined the show. He was entertaining alright, but was either drunk or high. He talked more than he sang, and ruined more than one song by not keeping up with the band. He also held the microphone out for the audience to sing nearly as much as he sang. It started to look like a cover up for him forgetting the words. He - sort of - sang, half talked, some bluesy thing for something like 20 minutes. With all the endless gabbing, I think we caught an hour of the show and heard 4 songs. Sound manager also had some problems. During one song the lead singer’s mic seemed to go up and down and out. We couldn’t tell if the sound control was bad, or if the sound person was trying to compensate for the messing up of the singer. The rest of the band was fantastic!

I've been to approximately 300 concerts in my lifetime and this concert was without a doubt the worst case of drunken self-indulgence I've ever seen. When the band played (which was only about 45mins of a 90 concert) they were awesome. However, between songs the lead singer would babble on incoherently. At one point it was clear he was trying to seduce several female audience members and his drunken dialogue went on for at least 10 mins. What a waste as the other musicians in the band were quite talented.

Either singer Doug Gray was drunk or he just didn't want to shut up and sing, but either way he was terrible. He ruined most of the songs he participated in by over-pandering to the crowd who could have cared less that he thinks he's still a star.

The venue was nice. I loved the small time arena. However, the seating was not good because all the seats are on the floor level which makes it difficult to see when you are in the back of the Ballroom. I was so excited to get to see a legendary band. Once again, I was disappointed right from the get go when the opening song was absolutely hammered by the singing. The band was in fine form and displayed a very entertaining performance. The show lasted about an hour and a half but only had about 5 or 6 songs played. Could have been more music and less talk. I would not reccomend this show to anyone unless you could go for free. And have a few drinks first so you can be on the same level as Doug Gray.

Not that great of a concert. They have a great rep. to draw from but the lead singer seemed to be either drunk or high. He spent the majority of the show aimelessly bantering with the crowd. And unfortunately age has greatly effected his voice. The crowd ended up having to sing" Heard it in a Love song". There were some good parts. The flute/keyboard player, and the Gibson guitar player were great and truly treied to carry the show.

We were excited to see MTB - what a disappointment. Way too much talking by the DRUNK lead singer. If he would have left the stage and let the band play - it would have been a great show. The flute player was EXCELLENT and had a great voice - as did the other members of the band. They could have played at least 7 or 8 more songs if the lead singer had stopped blabbering. He did promise that they will be back at the Casino and will talk about other things and play other songs. We would only go back if they promised to just play music. I really doubt we would go even if offered free tickets. The Snoqualmie Ballroom is a great place for music, it's a shame this was such a crummy experience. We heard lots of grumbling on the way out.

My husband and I enjoy lots of music but this concert was the worst we have attended. One guy stood up there and talked about how he(thinks) he still has "IT" We came to listen to music not some guy stuck on himself. People were walking out in discussed and wanting their money back. Sorry we went to this one.

They played the short version of "Heard it in a love song" and I danced the entire 30 minutes. It was a most incredible concert, one which I will never forget. The flautist was incredible, as were all the soloists. I am listening to Carolina Dreams for the second time this morning.

The band was very good and tight. Sorry I can't say the same for Doug. He talked more than he sang, and I was supprised he could stand at the end of the night. Not sure what was in those two cups he kept drinking from, he should have stayed on the wagon.
