This was the most visually rich and intense show I've ever been to. It was such a superb blend of sights and sounds, I stood mesmerized through the entire thing. This was the first time I saw them after being a fan since the late 80's, and I knew I'd have to go to both Portland and Seattle to celebrate... it was more than worth the 5 day trip. See this show.... it'll blow your mind....

Last time I saw them in Nokia they blew my mind and inspired me to run home and write music. This time not so much. The sound was way off and the vocals were missing the proper FX. They chose to many songs that just droned on with no form and the over all show had no energy..

Without boring you with details, I would like to say that Skinny Puppy's theatrics, sound and set list were among the top 3 shows of 2009. Flawless.This rating is not a joke, as I have attended somewhere around 50 concerts this year. Please attempt to see this band on this tour, they are getting older and surely will not be around forever. The fact it was held in the comfort and acoustics of the extremely under utilized Nokia Theatre only enhanced the experience.Thanks for caring.

I could have done w/out the opening one-man band, but Skinny Puppy was so worth the wait! Light show and overall act was fantastic!
I'd definitely see them again!

The Skinny Puppy concert was everything I expected. It was the first time I'd ever seen them, and I was absolutely NOT disappointed. See them if you have the chance. I traveled from Green Bay to Chicago for the show. It was easily worth the trip.

What can i say Skinny Puppy just keeps getting better as technology advances. The sound was not as outstanding as durring the Mythmaker tour but i have never heard River's End sound so good! Ohgr was on point as usual, visuals were good, and cEvin is a genius! Lights let something to be desired but overall the show was fantastic can't wait for the new album

This show was so crazy! All the lights and sounds plus Ogre's unforgettable stage presence and overall performance. Everytime I see them I am never let down until the show is over. I was rolling so hard and there was sexy girls in short skirts dancing with me. It really makes the time I waited for their return to Cleveland all worth it. GO SEE THEM!!

With the knowledge that Skinny Puppy has had a true following of fans for decades and with myself never being to one of their shows-I now know why they have such a devoted fan base. It was incredible, in a word. The music overall and especially percussion, the light show and for sure Ogre's costumes. Their music stands for what many believe in, as well as myself. When my 16 year old son wanted to go, I was a skeptical parent. But I have now found myself wondering and looking to see when they will tour again in the Cleveland area. Thanks Skinny Puppy and HoB for a great night.

Wonderful show! I think it started off a bit slow but after the first two songs everyone was really into it. About 20 years later and Skinny Puppy is still going strong. I took my boyfriend who isn't even that big of a Skinny Puppy fan and he had an absolute blast. You need to see them perform at least once in your life!

Opening scene: the record begins it's eerie spin of "Love In Vein," as a crippled, masked Ohgr creeps from the left corner of the stage clinching his stainless steel walker. Costumes were amazing as always and layers were shredded between song sets. I don't want to give too much away as it would not come close to doing justice. The only way I can explain it is I felt like I was someplace else in a different time and cEvin was taking all my requests. A really cool mixture gathered in Chicago and I think/hope left feeling as euphoric and nostalgic as me. A real ear ringing "greatest of" tours - DO NOT MISS THIS ONE. PS. Thanks to the cool roadie who gave my bud the blood-splattered drum stick, it's getting framed.

The concert was fantastic. Ogre as always was wearing some weird costume and one could not see his face till the encore. Skinny Puppy is so unique that it's hard to describe them but one thing for sure, they can take the audience on some surrealistic trip.

Skinny Puppy has another great concert tour they are pulling off. For some reason SP likes (or their managers like) to pair them with lame opening acts (with the exception of Godflesh and Thought Industry long ago). I cannot tell you how many puppy shows I have seen and the opening act is such unrefined junk you want to gouge your ears out. VvereVVolf Grehv is another such opening act consisting of a guy with a laptop and electric guitar, playing every damn note known to humankind in a blistering cacophony of brain boring chaos. I seriously think this guy is probably the worse guitarist I have even listened to as well as an aweful midi programmer (I have done both for well over 20 years). I wanted the ground to open up and swallow this guy whole.

The opening act is about 30 mins long (thank golly) and SP is about 90mins.
