Featured Review

It was great to see all of those 90s bands all in one place. They knew the crowd was there to hear them play their hits, and they played them. The crowd was largely late 20s to early 40s, so it was a nice, mature group (no teeny boppers running around drinking too much).

Gin Blossoms were awesome and so was Marcy Playground. I was not as excited to see Lit, but they put on a great show. Sugar Ray was a little off key, and I think the lead singer of Everclear had a little too much to drink, but overall, an awesome time!

the only reason it doesnt get a 5 star is because Lit was awful. Gin Blossoms, Sugar Ray, Everclear and Marcy Playground were all FANTASTIC! Mark is a little strange, and has developed some weird way of singing that was hilarious, but i still highly enjoyed him. the best performance was flat out Gin Blossoms. but everyone did great. i really enjoyed the end when all 5 bands came out and sang together. :)

This was the best tour that I have been to in a very long time. It was a great girls night out type of concert...Something we could all sing to and relate to...I am curious to see what other 90s bands could be put on this tour in the future...I would love to see Weezer and maybe the toadies on this tour too :-)...It was also great to have bands from every part of the 90s from the early 90s to 1999. I definitely will go again next year!!!

I enjoyed this concert as it paid tribute to the glory of the 90's. That was an era in music that cannot be replicated and holds a dear place in my heart. The crowd was also really amazing. A friendly group that was wrapped in the music and the wonderful environment of the Greek Theater. My favorite band of the evening (although all played really well) was the Gin Blossoms especially since I had to wait 16 years to finally see them. My boyfriend loved Lit and Sugar Ray the most. This was a great experience and I am looking forward to 2013 for a repeat!

Lit and Sugar Ray were the most enjoyable bands. I was really disappointed be Everclear, though -- the band sounded great, but the lead vocals were so bad we decided to leave early.

We missed Marcy Playground, but Lit & Gin Blossoms rocked. Could have done without Mark McGrath's commentary between bands. Sugar Ray & Everclear played all the hits, but their sets were a lot longer than the other bands...Should've gave some of that time to Lit & Gin Blossoms, who stole the show even if they only had 6 songs each. Everclear sounded like complete crap. Not sure if Art A. is getting too old for the road or if the sound guys were drunk by that point in the show, but you could barely hear any of the vocals & we were on the main floor. Glad we had a discount code for these tix.

The Sound Board at Motor City Casino is a great new addition to the downtown venues. It's small, so probably only holds 2-3000 people. The main floor was cool, as it was an actual pit rather than just a space that is usually filled with chairs. There are 3 bars with several bartenders working, but some how there was always a long wait for a beer. ??? They ran out of all light beers on tap before the 3rd band even started...poor planning.

Overall, we had a fun night reminising and dancing to some of our fave 90s hits.

We loved this concert! It was a great line up. With five bands you were ne'er tired of listening to the hits! The audio for Lit wasn't great (too loud) but everyone else was fun! We even got to witness a marriage proposal on stage:-) now if the sloppy drunks could keep their beers in their hands an off my clothes and the floor!

A good night of rock & pop from bands of the '90's. They played all the familiars, but also brought out some of their new material. Marcy Playground opened with a tight set of great music. Woz, Dylan & company, it looked like you guys were havin' fun. Next was Lit. Those guys did Allen proud. High five to all in the band for a severe rock out. And your new material is fantastic. Of course, since I can relate to the finely crafted and lyrical song " My Own Worst Enemy ", it was a highlight of their set for me. Next up, Gin Blossoms.They proved why they dominated air play in the 90's. A bit too " poppish " for my taste, but still a tight performance and a great rendition of "Hey Jealousy" and other favorites. Check out the dude on the bass. A quality player for sure. And it seemed they were enjoying themselves doing what they love , which is important to a frustrated musician as I. Sugar Ray followed, and again as there not being my cup of tea, I was skeptical. But alas! They really got the crowd pumped! Good job! I forgot how good a song " Fly " was. Now the downer. I came to see Art Alexakis and his latest rendition of Everclear. Mr. Alexakis STILL hasn't found what he's looking for but he's trying. Everclear songs have clever , intelligent and complex lyrics that must be a bear to perform live. It showed. Although, I did have a blast singing the chorus of " Santa Barbara ", which most, if not all of Summerland's tour helped out and finished the night with. A great show, that if it comes to your area and you appreciate the way 90's music rescued us, go and rock out for the evening. Peace out.

Gin Blossoms were great and worth seeing all by themselves. Sugar Ray only has a few hits and the showmanship is good, but little more than an opening act. Lit played well, but the lead singer is having trouble (divorce) and needs to just shut up. Everclear was great, but barely worth waiting for and Marcy's Playground rocked.

The show was okay & definitely nothing spectacular. Out of all the bands, Gin Blossoms sounded the best & I'm not a huge Gin Blossoms fan. I'm glad the tickets were only $5 or I really would've been disappointed.

My husband and I go to a lot of shows and this was one of the best. All 5 acts were great! The energy and fun radiating off the stage was infectious. One of the coolest things was that guys from the other bands would come out and play at any time. The finale of everyone coming out to sing Santa Monica was an incredible moment. I would highly recommend this show.

Being that these bands were all popular 15-20 years ago, I never thought I'd get the chance to see them play. Especially Everclear, my favorite of the night, since they broke up years ago. Talk about a trip down memory lane. I was listening to this music before I was even a teenager. Really took me back to 1990's summers, hanging out at the swimming pool, listening to these guys on the radio. The atmosphere was great, you could tell these guys are all just one big family at this point. Members from all the bands would come and hang out on stage during the other bands' sets. The crowd was on their feet for pretty much the entire show. Can't wait until the next one!
