The Waterboys Tickets

Fantastic show!!! Would see The Waterboys again without a doubt!

looking forward to this show for months. was supposed to go with my son but he could not make it so i had to bring someone who was not at all familiar with the band--still had a great time and the el ray theater was awesome

The show was Awesome! Mike Scott was a amazing! The sound and Venue were great. The set list was packed full of classics and incredible jams!

Possibly the most under appreciated and under the radar band in rock history. I expected Mike and Steven to be nothing short of inspiring, and the rest of the band to be very good. All my expectations were surpassed by an order of magnitude. This ranked in my top 5 concerts of all time, and believe me I've been going to concerts since the mid-sixties (last century) and have seen the best of the best in large and small venues. Mike Scott deserves to be revered as a songwriter and performer among the likes of Van Morrison, Bruce Springsteen, Dylan, Lennon and McCartney and any other your personal favorites.

Go to see them when they are in town. Mike, Steve and their american band mates are in top form!

Wonderful, varied, and exhilarating concert. From the moment they kicked off with Strange Boat and Fisherman's Blues to their culmination two hours later with Be My Enemy, The Waterboys put on one of the best shows I have ever seen by any band. They are as good and better than ever. The 'big' Waterboys sound is breathtaking, but the intimidate Raggle Taggle Gypsy with only Mike Scotts and Steve Wickham really showcased their talent, And Wickham, so integral to The Waterboys sound, was phenomenal on the fiddle. Can't wait for the opportunity to see them again.

Amazing show! The band was full of energy and very tight. Mike Scott's passion is infectious. The song selection hit on the best of the old and a sprinkling of the new. Steve Wickham was stellar. It was a half full venue but those in attendance got more than their money's worth from a veteran singer/songwriter and the young guns he brought along in this new incarnation of The Waterboys. The crowd was on its feet and singing along from start to finish.Would go see them again and again. GREAT SHOW!

I tell you, I went to the concert knowing a good bit of their music but really only loved 4-5 songs. But when they played, I found myself enjoying every song. The downside was that I brought my wife for our anniversary. Bang on the Ear was by far our favorite song, (we walked out to it on our wedding introduction) and I was so very very disappointed that they didn't play it.

At the gorgeous renovated Bergen PAC, which I will always think of as the old John Harms, and though the house was only half full on a Wednesday night, it brought tears to my eyes, not only because the music was so absolutely amazing (the talents of these men, the poetry of their souls and the energy of their bodies, made a music so awe inspiring it's tough to describe) but seeing the predominantly baby boomer crowd loud and alive and wooting and dancing in the aisles and yelling back to the band, well, that alone was worth the price of admission -- and more. Great mix of old and new tunes.

For what is going on with the personal of the band and the decision to not bring the full "real" band over to North America, this performance was just fine. I could never really knock the Waterboys but I feel like the basic setlist for this tour is a little stale. Relying heavily on the "This Is The Sea" album which is not even the album they are about to celebrate an anniversary of. It's just alot of the same old songs. The rarest song of the night, "She Tried To Hold me". Musicianship was fantastic.

Amazing show. The band was really into it- you could see how much they enjoyed it. The American musicians selected for the American tour were fantastic especially Chris Benelli on drums. Even if you're just a casual WB fan I highly recommend catching a show if you can.

This show was absolutely unforgettable. Michael and the boys rocked the house. The crowd was incredibly enthusiastic, They sounded great, the venue was perfect. It was like a Super Blast from my past. Love, Love , Love, You,come back soon. Thanks to YOU, from my brother Thom that passed in June and was there with me that night at the show. " Whole of the Moon" was and is living on through you, him, his family, and his music as well. Thank You Waterboys for your comfort and happiness.

Mike Scott's voice was amazing. The song choices were fantastic. Lots of songs were new to me even though I own 5 of their CDs.

The larger than life, grandiose, and highly intelligent music of The Waterboys that I remembered from the early 1990s was even better than I remembered at the Shubert. Mike Scott's distinctive, soulful voice drew us in but kept us at a distance in a beguiling Celtic way. The songs from his album "An Appointment with Mr. Yeats" were intelligent and bold and, as my friend Alice said, transformative. When I could take my eyes of the stage--which always seems with reach at the Shubert--I closed them to enjoy the blend of sounds with pure delight. While Mike Scott masterfully choreographed every move anybody made on the stage, the concert was first and last about the music. Please come back to New Haven, Waterboys!

I missed the Waterboys when they were last in the area, but was so happy to catch them this time around! And although they didn't play my personal favorite the line up was great!

Ok we checked out "The Waterboys" last Saturday, totally cool show, not knowing there music going in I was thinking St. Patricks day typical Irish band but this was totally not that, kinda a mix between Irish rock meets Dylan meets theater, really cool vibe, good music, my date and I have been talking about it ever since, if your into music, I'd totally recommend checking this out:)

Mire than just a great trip down memory lane and reliving the '80s and 90s heydays this was a great show. A brilliant fusion of Celtic energy, music and poetry, Mike Scott sounded as good as ever and Stevie Wickham sounded better than ever on fiddle. Terrific show, would highly recommend!

The Waterboys won't disappoint! Mike Scott and company play a great mix of new tunes and classics such as Fisherman's Blues and Raggle Taggle Gypsy. I'd see them again in a heartbeat. The Wilbur Theatre is a great, little venue with good accoustics and wonderful staff.

One long set.....no break....and as always, you want them to keep playing and you can't believe it's over.

The show was good however the sound system at the Wilbur was atrocious. The music was very loud, which in itself isn't a bad thing but the sound quality stunk, sounded tinny and was tough on the ears. The band did a good job but someone has to invest in a decent set of amps and speakers. The Waterboys play a long time. Really enrgetic, they did a great job.
