Wife and i are big fans and bought tickets as a Christmas present to ourselves awhile back. Show was at the Lyric Opera house in Baltimore. First of all, what an awesome venue. Acoustics were incredie. Secondly, had some great Afghan food before the show. And finally, the concert was amazing. One of the best live shows i have been to.

Phillip Phillips opened and i couldnt get over how much this guy imitates dave matrhews. In every way- right down to the facial expressions and body language. He was good but it was like watching a younger dave matthews - it wasjust weird i guess.

Anyway, they are in the process of s theater tour. If you like the band, it is definitely worth the price of admission.

    You know I wish I did. I am still living in the stone ages with my iphone 3 so nothing came out any good.

    They quite frankly put on an amazing show. Rob Thomas, in my opinion, is a great frontman. He got on the piano to sing Bright Lights and played the guitar for a couple songs. Their new drummer is a young dude that gets after it. And the lead guitarist Kyle Cook was simply amazing. He stole the show for a couple of songs. All in all, been to no less than a hundred concerts in my day and this ranks all the way up there in the top 5 in terms of venue and how they sounded and performed.

    Saw them some time ago and they were fantastic. Maroon 5 opened for them before anyone knew who the hell they were.

    It was a great show and I would love to see them again.
