The Weight Band Tickets

Brian Mitchell rocked the house. Jim Weider carried the soul of The Band. Don't miss it.

I loved that they had a full band, with drummer, 2 guitars, organ and piano. All of the musicians were amazing, and they played all of The Band's hits, including 3 encores. The show far exceeded our expectations.

This is a great rendition of The Band's music. Everyone is top notch, you wont hear a better Band band. The King Harvest Horns were great too.

The Weight was amazing, I have seen them about a dozen times and I love them. They are great musicians and of course, they do an amazing job playing all of my favorite Band songs

The Weight band was great ! Unfortunately the crowd at the Welmont took the lyrics too literally and decided to take a load off by sitting the entire time in their seats. Shame on them!!! And you would get yelled at by security if you stood up! REALLY??? you can't stand at a rock concert?? Levon Helm is turning in his grave. There is nothing a band likes more than seeing their hard effort and musical talent appreciated by people actually getting up, dancing and shaking their bones. Shame on the Welmont for putting all those chairs in the dance floor. When DSO plays they know better to do that. And that lame crowd should stay at home on their couch and listen to a dvd.

Spent two and a half hours to hear four songs that I knew.

GREAT SHOW , GOOD SEATS , GREAT FANS NOT TOO ROWDY AT ALL, 1ST PART OF SHOW DRAGGED A BIT BUT AFTER BREAK THEY ROCKED THE HOUSE , EVERYONE STANDING AT END BUT STILL ABLE TO SEE , LOVE TO SEE THEM AGAIN!!!!!!!!

This is no cover or tribute band.Everyone of these guys is the real deal,and can draw a straight line directly to Levon Helm.Their list of credits both as individuals and collectively reads like a who's who of rock and roll.

Band was great ; company was great ; awesome venue ; awesome staff

I have no idea why the house was sparse, maybe it's been too long since 1976 when the initial incarnation of The Band played their Last Waltz and many have forgotten the impact that they had on music? Hard to say. This was as close as it gets and the music the voices and the act were as close as it gets to the original. I suspect it has to do with most of the musicians having played with The Band's member in different incarnation of the group and its off-shoots since the groups initial demise. The music was rocking and the crown thoroughly enjoyed the performance. The Blue Ocean is a fantastic intimate room for such a performance as well. I couldn't have asked for anything better!!!

My first rock & roll concert was The Band, in the early 1970's. I still count that among my favorites. So I was happy when I learned that a tribute band of amazing musicians, with many personal ties to The Band, was coming to town to perform The Band's most memorable songs. This was an intimate concert, and was not promoted well. But everyone who came had a great time! When I closed my eyes, I was transported back to the show I saw in the 70's. Most of the songs were so lively, many folks danced, and it was an older crowd. Many of their renditions were spot-on, even though it is hard to recreate the vocals of Levon Helm and Rick Danko, with their iconic voices. After the show, several band members came to the merch table, signed autographs, and regaled us with stories of their experiences with The Band.

What happens when you combine some of the best American music with some of the most talented players?? Catch a show on this tour and you'll find out. Felt like early 70s all over again. Tight and spirited performances - original and peripheral members of the Band. Jim Weider can hang with anyone on a stage with a guitar in his hand. As big a Telecaster monster he is - he is an equally warm and engaging person. Hung out with fans after the showi, sharing smiles and pictures. So very humble. And again, so very talented. If your a Band fan, a rock and roll fan or just love great music played by guys who put the word "pro" in professional musicians, this is the gig. Jeff S.

Go see them. It's that simple. They played in Fort Lauderdale at a wonderful venue the Amaturo at Broward and I was lucky to be in the front row. Brought back many memories of seeing the Band and also Levon Helm in Woodstock back in the day of FM radio gigs and concerts to live by. The set list was excellent. The Night They Drove Ol Dixie Down, Rag Mama Rag, Stage Fright, The Weight, Ophelia... actually a dream of Band favorites strung together with a "band" of excellent musicians. Be prepared to get a donut stuck in your teeth! Uploaded a few photos Marty Grebb and Brian Mitchell were great too!

This is one of the shows you need to see. This is a group of very good musicians and the songs are performed really well. The group is tight and the sound great. I took a group of friends that did not really know The Band but as soon as the music started they recognized and loved the music. Overall it was a memorable evening. Being a Deep Tracks radio station listener I wanted to hear Acadian Driftwood but they did not play it but I was still very happy with the setlist.

I wasn't sure what to expect as I didn't recognize any of the musicians, but they were very tight and played all the old favorites.

Great Show!! The musicians were excellent. They played all of The Band's early hits. They added some intros and solos but basically played the songs with their original arrangements. The vocals were adequate but you can't expect anyone to be as good as Levon Helm, Richard Manuel and Rick Danko. I highly recommend The Weight to anyone who likes good rock n roll music. Thank you for coming to the West Coast and for continuing to play this great music!!

These guys are very talented musicians who play music that is cross between blues , folk , country and slight rock. Wonderful music from the music the band played and some of their own songs. We met them after the concert and they really nice guys and will sign their autographs, nice touch to an end to a great evening. Don't miss this band!

After over 50 years these guys still have it. I would recommend this show to everyone of all ages. I would have liked to have heard Arcadian Driftwood.

I went to this concert not knowing what to expect since Levon was not going to be there etc. I went thinking if I could just hear a few of my favorites I would be happy since seeing these guys in one form or another was on my bucket list. They put on an exceptional show. It was fun, they sounded great and so many of the songs, The Weight, Stage Fright, Cripple Creek were really well done. If you have the chance its a great take and you will be happy you went.

We had a great night of music, with a professional tight band ! No one left the concert unsatisfied! We are following their event schedule and will see them again !!
