DOWN as a band was absolutely incredible. Phil is still very energetic and passionate about his craft. It is worth the time and money to see these guys live. There were no gimmicks (laser lights, pyro, etc.) just straight in your face rock and roll that did not disappoint. DOWN played for every bit of 2 hours of pure energy. Highly recommend this live show. I'll be waiting for them to come back.!!!

Honky opened the show. Good sound quality, drew some interest from the crowd. Originally HAARP was supposed to open and would have preferred them much more. Honky was good.

Warbeast was next. Thrash is my favorite metal. Warbeast is a band without an identity. The lead singer and lead guitarist look like they are straight out of an 80's metal band. The lead singer's vocals don't go with the music. They are out of time and simply don't work. The band sounded very good, the singer, not so much so. Wouldn't see them again...

Down played a great set and show. Music was clean, vocals were the best I've heard from Phil in years and he is about the best frontman in the business. Great performance.

Why 4 out of 5? Warbeast sucked that much for me.....

Phil was in rare form. Talking to the crowd after each song. And singing like he was having fun and enjoying it. The crowd was giving it up and singing to all the ifavorites. Played a few off there new album "WITCH TRIPPER." most of the songs were from Nola bringing the heavyness. That's what everyone likes and wants to hear.
Very cool show definitely recommended.

Saw Down at the Orange Peel in Asheville, NC and the Tremont Music Hall in Charlotte, NC and all I can say is wow! Easily the most engaging and entertaining shows I have ever had to privilege to see! Phil and Kirk played the crowds and kept everybody in stitches and the music was out of sight. Also LOVED Warbeast as the opener. Great shows!!

Down the band played excellent, and Phil really engaged the crowd, making the show excellent.

Supporting acts performed well, but their style of metal is not my thing - vocals w constant screaming/shouting/growling - gets old after 1 song.

** Starland is a nice venue but its beer prices are ridiculous ($7 for domestic and $8 for some imports), and that's from a bottle only - no draft - and that means only 12 ounces - not 16. *AND* the beer selection was weak (no Sam Adams, no Magic Hat, no Sierra Nevada, no Bass Ale). Starland is in Jersey, which has tons more microbrews available on the market than my home state - so what gives?

3rd time seeing Down was the best. They have truly matured into a very professional live act. The addition of new bassist shows in live performance, which is better than studio album, in my opinion. This show was like the greatest Blues-Metal show ever. Thanks Down, YOU 5 GUYS ROCK.

Another stellar show. The new material is awesome and the boys played a nice mix of new and old. The energy was great and Phillip H seemed to be feeding off of the crowd. Played nearly two hours. We did the VIP deal for the second time and really enjoyed the atmosphere. Down is killer!!

First time at the Starland Ballroom, the staff in the orange t shirts were informative and it was the little details i was more impressed with, like asking where the bathrooms were and escorting me to an area where i could enjoy a cigarette. Professional to say the least. As for the band's, haarp was a band i didn't know and was totally impressed how they performed. The raw energy they displayed for the crowd must have been appreciated as i was super impressed how they played their entire album at once without stopping. Warbeast was another great sounding energetic band that i truly enjoyed. The totally cool part of both these bands is after they performed, you had a chance to chat with them, high five them and get to know them at the booth. I purchased a CD from both these bands. As for Down, well what can you say that has not already been said. Fantastic band with that Louisiana flavor to it! Phil is a legend and has been on top of the world. Nice to see him perform in smaller venues. Phil can really get the crowd going as his energy to perform is legendary.

The whole show was amazing. Absolutely incredible. The opening acts were great, especially Mount Carmel (check them out for sure). Down .... well, Down just can't have enough words said about them. The band is still going strong and glad they're back out touring and releasing new material. Phil still kicks major ass and can get a crowd going like no other. Pat Bruders makes a great replacement for Rex, he fits in nicely with the rest of the guys. Probably one of the best shows I've ever been to.

Bobby Liebling of Pentagram can still own a show. Down brought their A-game as expected. Great view of the stage from anywhere in the venue. Drink prices were a little excessive though.

I always have been a fan of Down, but never had the opportunity to see them in concert before last Sunday (9-30-12) at the Fillmore in Silver Spring, M.D. These guys gave an outstanding performance! The crowd was large and very much alive. DOWN CRUSHED IT!. And the Fillmore is the best club I have ever seen a act of that caliber perform. No doubt about it.

the VIP experience was well worth the investment, very well organized, was informed of times and details of the event were conveyed via email 1 week prior, and as advertised was able to meet all members of the band, got an item autographed by all the members, and attended sound check in which Kirk and Pepper performed a song on the floor with the crowd! the venue was well designed big enough to hold a crowd without being crowded , enough bars and bartenders so wait time for a drink was not an issue and even a coat check so if you brought items to be signed or bought some and didn't want to get in the pit with them that was not an issue. I definitely plan on returning in November to see Lamb Of God, hatebreed, in flames, and Sylosis !!!
