The Outlaws Tickets

No one - absolutely no one does it better than Henry Paul and the Outlaws!!!

I like the band and their music, but the sound quality and show was horrible. One of the guitar players had amp failure and the rest of the band played on like they did not need him leaving the audience uncomfortable. The lead singer had a connection with the audience, but the other band members just kind of stood there never making eye-contact or interacting with the audience. It was almost like everyone except the lead singer was socially inept and doesn't like people. The lead singer was a class act, but I was embarrassed for him. ALL the musicians were very talented but no stage presence. The Outlaws all need to go see Lynyrd Skynyrd and watch how they connect with the audience.

I have been an Outlaws fan since the mid 70's, and these guys rocked the house. They played classic hits and stuff off the new album, all great performances. They did a meet and greet after the show which showed a lot of class since no one does that any more. I would go see them again in a heartbeat.

The Outlaws can really play and they put out a fantastic effort; however, the balance was really bad between instruments and vocals. Just dialing the guitars back and allowing the vocals to be heard would have made this event dramatically better. Thunder Valley's Pano Hall is a featureless venue as well. Just chairs in room with all of the character of a Holiday Inn conference room. Very slow service with only 2 bartenders to accommodate 600-700 people. My wife and I are on track to see around 35 events this year and we will avoid Thunder Valley unless they get someone we really want to see and they're not playing another venue in NorCal.

Fabulous show!! What rockers these guys are. Good old southern rock.

Great show, new material is awesome!!! These guys still ROCK!!!!

We really enjoyed seeing the Outlaws, They put on a wonderful show. The were energized and friendly. The Uptown Theatre is a terrific place to see a concert.

Great Southern Rock. Don't miss the Outlaws, they will not disappoint.

First let me start off by saying that it was a few hours before the show when I decided to attend it. I am so glad I talked myself into going, because what an evening it was! I saw the Outlaws at a festival last summer for the first time with Marshall Tucker Band (who need to call it quits) and was impressed with how great they sounded, though the set was cut down. Henry Paul also announced that they were releasing a new album entitled, "It's About Pride", the first album of new material since 1994. The opening two songs, the first from the new album "Tomorrow's Another Night" and probably their biggest hit "There Goes Another Love Song" set the stage for what was to come. Nearly two hours of some of the best guitar jamming and melodies and they had the crowd going from the onset. Henry and company proved the doubters that they could go on without vocalist and founder, Hughie Thomason who died in 2007. Henry need not be concerned with these perceptions that the band isn't as good as it was before. He and founding drummer Monte Yoho, along with a great new set of players are sounding and playing as if it was still the 1970s. The band plowed through other concert favorites, "Hurry Sundown", Knoxville Girl", "Freeborn Man", "Grey Ghost" (Henry Paul Band), as well as several selections from the new album. When they reached the last song "Green Grass and High Tides" the crowd stood up and cheered. The band were clearly enjoying themselves. In the encore "Ghost Riders in the Sky" built to a climax, the audience knew they had witnessed something special. Following the show, I stood in line to meet the guys and purchased the new CD and got it signed by all of them. The were all very cordial to all. All in all a great night.

I loved it! It was great seeing this band, one of my favorites growing up. They were excellent. The warm up band The Crawdaddy Band was also fantastic. I wasn't aware the concert would last as long as it did and unfortunately, I had to leave a bit early to pick up my kid.

"We'll never know what could have been. We can only look back and imagine." That quote appears on a sign hung on the piano of the night's opening act: Crawdaddy. Crawdaddy is a Lynyrd Skynrd tribute band. This night we were treated with the drumming of Artimus Pyle, original member of Skynrd and a survivor of the horrific plane crash which killed six people including three members of the band. Artimus Pyle was one of three men who crawled out from the wreckage and walked through swampy woods in search of help, nearly ending up a victim of a local farmer who thought the men were escapees from a nearby prison. Back to the music. When I think southern rock, I think lots of guitars, a few backup singers and a big drum kit. Check. Oh, and it needs to be loud and rockin'. Double check. From "Gimme Two Steps" to "The Breeze" the joint was jumping. Throwing in a little "old fashioned honky tonk," "I Know a Little About Love" and of course a spot-on version of "Sweet Home Alabama," Crawdaddy set the tone for one great night of rock. This is why you should always check out the opening act. Otherwise you would just miss too much fun. The Outlaws Now in April, I did a blog post on The Outlaws called "Time To Kick It Up: Outlaw Style." At that time, I had no idea I would be seeing them a few months later. So here are a few thoughts on seeing them live. Thought #1: Yeah Thought #2 Hell Yeah. I lost count at the number of standing ovations The Outlaws received last night. The first was three songs in, after a killer rendition of "Hurry Sundown." And, that was after a wicked version of "There Goes Another Love Song." It was hard to find anyone without a smile of their face. This night, the band mixed in a lot of newer material along with the old classics and you know what...it was all good. It's a shame that even Sirius radio does not have a channel where classic rockers can get their newer music played (though they might be moving in that direction). Their new album "Its About Pride" will be released this September. The title song, which they played last night, reflects what has been their reason for pushing on all these years. Pride in being in a band that has endured, and pride in the product they have produced. I'll say one thing, these boys are having a real good time. Unlike so many bands today, where interaction between the members is limited to a nod or a glare...every member from original lead vocalist Henry Paul, original drummer Monte Yoho to veteran guitarists Billy Crain and Chris Anderson to bass player Randy Threet and Keyboardist Dave Robbins...these guys really seem to like each other. In a business where that is not always the case...it was real nice to see. No southern rock band is complete without a trio of backup singers, and these girls rocked it out all night. At one point Henry talked about playing the old Capitol Theatre in Passaic, something like a hundred years ago. That is where this girl grew her rock & roll teeth. For me, that was a nice trip down memory lane and was much appreciated by a friendly crowd, many of whom had most likely been there too. The set ended with a full length version of "Green Grass and High Tides." I think this was when I tweeted a picture with one word...wow. Encore was "Ghost Riders in the Sky," Kick ass, smokin' and still a great vocal. A killer night of music. yippee-ki-yay.

The current line-up consists of two early Outlaws members Henry Paul (guitar and vocals) and Monte Yoho (percussion), along with band mates Chris Anderson (lead guitar and vocals), Billy Crain (guitar), Randy Threet (bass), and Dave Robbins (keyboard). The Outlaws, from the beginning, were never known for their lead singers’ extended vocal range. With Henry Paul doing the majority of singing now, that has not changed. His voice is still adequate, if not stellar. He doesn’t sound like Hughie Thomasson the original Outlaw (who died in 2007) but he is OK and his voice is recognized from the old days, bringing a familiar ring to the band. But let’s face it, what The Outlaws WERE known for is kick-ass guitar and no hold barred southern rock. They still give that out in spades. They played for two hours straight, with all the standards thrown in including Freeborn Man, There goes another love song, Green Grass and High Tides, Ghost Riders in the Sky, and more. They also threw in some from their upcoming album (It’s About Pride). As for the new material, it sounds like classic Outlaws music. If you like Outlaws, you will like the new album. These guys play well. Watching them working the guitars the word that came to mind was “Artist.” I know that’s kind of a cliché these days, and I don’t often look at musicians as artists (Sorry to all the musicians out there…) but these guys were really impressive. When I think of ‘Artists” I think of people like Michelangelo, people that transcend their craft. Watching these vets play made me think of them in that regard. The band’s sound is clearly still there, with the triple guitars playing separate but complimentary riffs, and then coming together for short guitar harmonies before breaking off again into their own blazing paths. It was a great show. They were loud, fun, gracious, and eager to please, and they did that well. Afterwards, they all sat down in the lobby and signed whatever you brought to them, chatted with the fans, and truly seemed grateful to the people who came. If you like ‘southern rock’ or ‘rocking country’ or whatever you want to call their brand of play, go see them. You won’t be disappointed.

The Outlaws rocked the house!! They were great to their fans on stage and off. Their sound engineer did a great job getting the voices and instruments from the stage to the audience crisp and clear. Can't wait to hear them again. And Bergen PAC personnel did a terrific job pulling it all together. Will come again.

outlaws were awesome!!! i thought the band really played well. would see them again anytime.

It was great to see the Outlaws again at BPAC. They always gave a great effort and that hasn't changed The band was tight and the new songs were very good. It's tough to replace the guys that made the memories but they did a GREAT job.

All the bands that play there are just doing there new stuff, its like a venue for practice. Very dissapointing. We left before it was over.

I was very please with the opening band- Crawdaddy - A Skynyrd coverband- So that set the night well off- I wish they played longer. The Outlaws were a polished orchestrated (choriographed) act- I liked. The southern rock jams were good and the trade offs were done very well. The jams just didn't hit the mark- WHICH I set highly- I gave a 4 because the energy and performance was there- A 3.8 is accurate. If the place was packed could have added- The croud was well into the show. Please remember I go to many shows and am a tough critic- If I didn't see so many shows- this would be more- Not Average - would recommend, but would come shy of saying a must see- I would go again though- if the price was right,

Saw the Outlaw show on Wednesday night at the Bergen PAC and it was fantastic. They still have the same stinima and personality on stage as they did 20 years ago. After the show they were nice enough to set up a table and give autographs. Id definitely go again.

Outlaws exemplify pure dynamic synergy and energy. These guys know one another and how to compliment and showcase each individuals talent. From start to finish they rocked it, engaged the audience, offered commentary that conversation that offered a welcome to my living room feel. The guitar work is mindblowing. My only negative comment is the mix on the harmonies could have been better and it was a tad loud for such a small venue.

outstanding show guitar were burning up the stage perfect harmony's no better place to see a show than showroom at turning stone these boys are on my top five southern rock bands of all time third time seeing them at stone best show yet if you like guitars and long riffs these boys are a must see
