seeing arctic monkeys at revolution was perfect at this small club venue. the music was loud and i got to see the boys before the show and hear their soundcheck. the whole atmosphere was very retro and you could get a sneak peek of them doing a soundcheck. unforgettable!

I go to maybe 8-10 shows a year (maroon 5, linkin, blink, snow patrol, red hot) to give you an idea and this show was not topped. It was perfect if you have the opportunity to see them in concert missing it is not an option. Alex sounds the same if not better than the CD's the energy is unparallelled and watching some of my favorite songs played live was just incredible!

They rocked the House of Blues! Wish the show was a little longer about 4 or 5 more songs, but what they played was super and the venue was a great place.

The Arctic Monkeys have an amazing reputation for putting on great live shows and this was no exception! It was a great show in a mediocre venue. The opening act sounded terrible and were comp[etely forgettable. I was worried that I would be disappointed with the Arctice Monkeys too until they took the stage and turned everything upside down. They sounded great and really rocked the club! I recommend that if your going to go see them that you get there early and tolerate the crappy opening band because you will want to see the Arctic Monkeys take over! They are a "don't miss them when they come around" band for certain!

Arctic Monkeys are great performers. You shouldn't expect a great light show or fireworks, but they play their music as you'd probably like to hear it live. Not a run of the CD, with some surprises. Alex Turner doesn't miss a tone.

They could be more interactive with the audience but they were the minimum accepted.

Opening band Smith Westerns was great. They always put on a good show.

Arctic Monkeys get better and better with every album and every live performance. This is the 6th time I've seen them (2nd in Columbus). LCP was a great venue for them. Great crowd except that they seemed more excited about the older songs. Listen to the newer stuff--it gets better each album!

This was a great show equaled only by a great town and a great venue. The Arctic Monkeys hit the stage full of aggression and vitality. They played songs from each album, all the hits, and even a taste of their newest song. I hope the boys come back soon!

Great concert!! They played really well and even the opening band, Smith Westerns did great! I'd heard that Arctic Monkeys weren't too good live. Whoever I'd heard that from was painfully mistaken. The crowd was mostly comprised of hipsters, if that matter to you. And where there is rock there is moshing, so be ready for that if you see them. Ears were ringing after for 2 days.

This was my second time seeing Arctic Monkeys, the first being at Mr. Smalls. As always, they were fantastic and played an excellent set with basically everything you would want to hear. Smith Westerns were also a great opening act. Stage AE was a very nice venue and I look forward to seeing more shows there in the future.

This event was my fourth concert at Stage AE, which in my opinion is the best venue in Pittsburgh, and it was by far the best show I've seen there. And this is in comparison to Sublime with Rome/311, Incubus, and Umphrey's McGee, who all put on good shows but were nothing compared to how Arctic Monkeys got the crowd roused up and excited for every song they played. I was also a little worried because I was not feeling their latest album all that much but they played way more of their older stuff than expected, which made for one of my top concert experiences ever. Anytime you get a chance to see them, DEFINITELY GO!!

I was so lucky to get to see this band in such a small venue. Amazing as always. As always they sounded better than their albums. Third time seeing these and third time I went home happy with that after concert buzz in my ears.

This concert was UNFORGETTABLE, UNBELIEVABLE, THE AWESOMEST CONCERT EVER. Arctic Monkeys are truly one of the best bands alive, and they're AMAZING live. I recommend watching these guys live at least one in a lifetime.
The Music Hall of Williamsburg is a great venue, very cozy and small, which makes the show more intimate, I absolutely loved it.

Alex Turner haircut was weird but everything else was real rockin. The setlist was good but as is now becoming the norm, way too short. Not acceptable to me. Band was tight tight and energy was there. I thought Turner was a bit annoying and i generally love the guy.
