I waited almost 20 years to see them I wanted to I just couldn’t and it was amazing. 18 songs plus a 5 song encore. Band songs venue all spectacular.

MODEST MOUSE ROCKS!
I have been a fan of the mouse for 15 years and seen them many times, I brought my daughter to this event and we loved the show, modest mouse knows how to rock and never disappoint. I thought the song selection was fantastic pulling from all their albums.
Donovan D. from Tulsa, Oklahoma
CONFUSED ABOUT THE COMMUNAL HATRED?
Had a wonderful time in Tulsa. I wish they’d played more B-sides, but it was a really enjoyable show. Trucker’s Atlas was a very pleasant surprise, as was Perfect Disguise. The only bad part about the show was some jack-wagon “frat bro” in front of me that kept making fun of the second percussionist and making whooping noises. Audience felt involved, and the quiet parts of the concert felt special.
Taver Zoet from Grand Rapids, Michigan
AWESOME SHOW
Awesome show at 20 Monroe live. Sound was fantastic and Modest Mouse was amazing. Beer was good too. So glad I went.

FUN MM SHOW!
We had a lot fun!! Good mix of songs. It was hard to hear him at some points but not bad.
Karnak from Albany, New York
ADD AT THE PALACE
Like everyone else here said, the
sound was terrible. All I could hear
was the bass really all else was a
mush. Song selection was great, yet
frustrated I could barely hear it. I
have to say Brock seemed to rush
through the songs. Maybe that was a
head space thing, digestive troubles,
no idea. Not going to assume
anything.
I have not seen MM in over 10 years,
but Brock brought a lot more energy
to those earlier
performances. Cowboy Dan without
that anger just didn’t seem quite
right.
I think Trailer Trash was one of the
more successful songs of the night as
far as the band feeling present for it.
Perhaps the crowd was too.
I will say the crowd vibe was definitely
off. People seemed more interested
in talking loud amongst themselves,
selfies, texting, getting up and milling
about. It was like everyone had ADD.
Weirdest show I have been to in that
regard.
So in some ways, I can see why he
would want to rush through it.
Matt from Albany, New York
TERRIBLE SHOW
This was truly a pathetic show. No energy. Sound was messed up. Literally could not
understand one word. No encore. None of the best songs. Truly a waste of time and a
money grab by this band....
G from Norfolk, Virginia
SOUNDED TERRIBLE
I don't know if it was the venue or the band but
both modest mouse and the opening band
sounded absolutely awful. Painful electric hum
drowned out all the music and you couldn't
understand any vocals over the feedback from
the system. really disappointed. My date was
having a good time so I ignored it, but I'd have
left a couple songs in otherwise.
Sad to say this was the worst concert I've ever
seen.
Noelle from Albany, New York
DISAPPOINTING
The sound was awful, and the band looked like they really didn't want to be there. I was
disappointed.
Dennis Evans from Albany, New York
OMG... SO BAD!
I have been a huge fan since the early 2000's... Got tickets the minute they were on
sale, got third row seats and could not wait to see them! I was bringing my Son, My
daughter and son in law were all going! It was going to be an awesome experience!
Not to be!
The audio was not understandable, The sound distorted, the song selection was
terrible! They had to take a break to try and fix things and that did not work, They
came back out... finished a couple songs, then left, they made it seem like an encore
was coming, but they just didn't bother to come out again. Just collected the Concert
Money and left! I even noticed small things that were bothering... Not tuning a guitar
until before a song... He is up there and taking time between songs to tune while
everyone waits... The flow and show all sucked... I had waited 20 years to see them
and wish I never went!
Roy M from Albany, New York
BAD, BAD, BAD SHOW
Warning: Don't waste your money! I love MM, but the Albany, NY show was horrible. From the other reviews, it sounds like it's the same at every venue. Couldn't make out a word they said, but generally, there was no audience involvement at all. They just stood there and played their songs, some of which I could barely recognize. About 3/4 through, they left the stage so the techs could fix an audio problem. 20 minutes later, they came back, played a few more songs and then just quit. No real encore, unless that was it, and no buildup to a grand finish like good performers do. Also, how do they not even play Float On, their biggest hit? I still love their studio produced output, but this is one band that should never be seen live.
Jason from New York, New York
PAINFUL ENDING
So, all the bad reviews before this are
correct. Was the worst sounding
show I have ever been to. The one
point I will add is that they waited
forever for the encore. After sitting
through horrible accustics, and then
to make us wait?! If you don’t want to
play more because people aren’t
cheering enough and are leaving...
just turn on the lights and let us go
home. After waiting forever, we just
ended up leaving... not sure if they
ever played the anchor... don’t care.
Josh from Fort Wayne, Indiana
SO DISAPPOINTED
I’ve been a modest mouse fan for
almost 15 years and I was so pumped
to go see them. That said, the concert
was awful. The techs knew something
wasn’t right: they set up for almost 45
minutes after the openers. The audio
was atrocious. We could understand
NOTHING. I thought I had just
messed up hearing, but everyone
around me was in agreement. Not
sure if it was their own techs our
Foelinger’s, but it was TERRIBLE
audio. And they played for like an
hour. Disappointing. I went home
and turned on my iPhone playlist and
rocked out instead. Still love them.
Just with less money, now.
We went to Steve Miller last year and
sounded great, which made me think
it was not Foelinger’s fault. I’d still
recommend a concert there. SUCH a
cool venue.
Tedopon from Fort Wayne, Indiana
TERRIBLE SOUND
Even counting my days as a raver going to parties in abandoned buildings in the 1990s,
this was the worst sound I have ever experienced in any venue irrespective of size or
scope.
Tickets cost $75-$100 for two hours of sonic mud.
Complete waste of time, money and effort for all involved.
Rich from Fayetteville, Arkansas
WORST SHOW EVER
Saw MM in rogers AR, the sound wad
terrible, couldn't make out any words, even
when he was talking between songs. Drums
were so heavy it drowned out everything
else, couldn't even make out what song they
were playing most of the time. They had
technical difficulties and had to start over on
a couple of songs. A waste of money to see a
band I really like.
Abbie from Cedar Rapids, Iowa
MISSED THE BOAT
I've been a fan of Modest Mouse and their
indie rock music for almost 10 years.
Anticipating their smart lyrics and energetic
songs, I'd give 5 stars for anticipation - I was
excited for this concert in Milwaukee.
When the opening band Mass Gothic started
playing bass-heavy brooding punk, it
became clear this was not the concert I was
expecting.
From the first Modest Mouse song to the
last, the sound quality and balance was
terrible. Twice they chose to address their
sold-out audience between songs, and no
one could understand him. Chants of "turn
up the microphone" sounded through the
crowd.
The MM fans who came to bang their head
to harder alternative rock were satisfied. Us
fans of the moderate indie rock songs like
"The World at Large", "Missed the Boat" and
"Float On" that helped earn their widespread
success were not awknowledged. Every song
had a harder edge which made the entire
setlist sound similar. The nearly 2.5 hour
concert drug on.
We loved Milwaukee, but not the show
Disappointed from Seattle, Washington
WORST SHOW IN 28 YRS OF CONCERTS
Been going to concerts for 28 years and this was definitely the worst show I've ever seen -- terrible sound, terrible engagement by the band. A real shame -- I've seen Modest Mouse before and they were great. This venue also has potential to be awesome. Not a great way to get back to live music after all we've been through the last 18 months.
from Denver, Colorado
REFUNDS SHOULD BE GIVEN
Saw modest mouse at red rocks last night
There is nothing this venue or any sound crew could do or not do, to make this venue less than EXQUISITE
I’ve never been more disappointed in a band
Not only was their stage presence, song selection and engagement absolutely HORRIFIC
But the first time the lead singer decided to say something it was to suggest people in the cheaper sections pay more for beer
Modest mouse is the definition of ungrateful assholes and as a music lover I deeply regret giving them a cent
I’ve deleted their music from my playlists and encourage all to think twice before supporting this band
After what we’ve all been through-come in with a spirit of gratitude, openness, fun and love
You suck modest mouse
Carl from Denver, Colorado
MIND BLOWINGLY TERRIBLE!
I genuinely feel refunds should be issued for this show. They started late, the sound was blaring out totally unbalanced and somehow traveled in a circular pattern like a siren throughout the ENTIRE evening. It was impossibly bad and I am gutted to have spent so much on four tickets.
