First off the "Meet n Greet "was delayed for two hours. Then when we got to go in, we got rushed through like cattle. The band acted like they didn't wanna be their. Sound check was very short. Then rushed us out like cattle. $125.00 for all of that. The only thing I can say good about it was the "Lanyard". Then there was the pictures. We were not permitted to take our own pictures with the band, they had someone else do it. Then you have to download them off their web site. They turned out horrible, faces were blurred, colors to bright, I did mine in black and white just because color looked so bad. Now as far as DOWN'S performance it was as solid as any I've seen. To short of a set list though. Bottom line I will see them in concert again, just no VIP tickets.

Awesome show! I paid extra for the meet & greet, which for a meet & greet I thought $125 was super cheap! I found out sound checks are super boring, but then we finally got a glimpse of the Down guys, yes! One guy by me stated that "if I were a chick, I would be his groupie" (about Phil) Need I say more? Only bad thing about the show was Rex wasn't there due to surgery. Get well Rex!

I have seen this band 4 times now and each time it gets better. The Melvins were a great opening band. I didn't realize they have 2 drum players, that was pretty cool. Pantera, COC, and Crowbar are 3 of my favorite bands and they combine into one awesome band. Phil is a great front man and now that he doesn't get wasted before shows he can actually keep it together.
