Matthew Sweet Tickets

Matthew Sweet and the band sounded great. I don’t know how long they had to practice before the tour, but the band was really tight.

The concert was amazing. We have been to Ludlow Garage before and the size and all makes it a very intimate experience. The acoustics were perfect and we loved all his selections he performed! hope to see him again!

Great opener, Matthew Sweet was amazing as usual, and Lincoln Theater staff was great!!

I’m a huge Matthew Sweet fan and have seen him many times. Unfortunately, this show got off to a rocky start with bad mixing, problems with an amplifier, etc. It took at least 3 songs before it sounded like the band was playing the same song at the same time. From that point on, it was a fun show. Just wish these issues had been caught before the show started.

Love Matthew Sweet's music, but the Lincoln Theater did him a real disservice with the sound mix. He made a comment about some issues with the sound and kept adjusting his guitar between songs. Sound was muddy and vocals barely discernable. I've been to tons of concerts at the Lincoln and this stood out for its poor sound. Please do better!

He hasn’t been touring for a while and you could tell. The band was not tight but got better as the show went on. Opener was great, unique.

Not sure if it was the venue, the sound guy, or the band...but this was not a good performance.

Matthew sweet was great, and I was equally impressed by his opening artist Abe Partridge which is not something I usually am impressed by. I would have preferred that he had his normal drummer with him, as he is touring with the Bangles drummer and it just isn’t strong, it was fine but needs the great fills that are on the albums.. that’s the only complaint

Full disclosure - the High Noon Saloon in Madison, WI has a central pillar in the middle of the venue. Due to arriving late, this is where I had to stand. So....I didn't see Matthew with my eyes for most of the show...but oh my golly, I sure did hear his incredibly strong vocal and guitar delivery. The band - wow - all-stars through and through. Paul Chastain from Velvet Crush playing a Gibson SG bass and adding high harmonies, Drummer Debbi Peterson from The Bangles locked in with Paul. A smiling lead Telecaster player that looked like your high school physical education instructor, and a young-ish acoustic guitar strummer that hit every harmony note required. On Divine Intervention - towards the end of the song - they hit that multi-part harmony after Matthew sings "Does he love us?"It lit up the room with love vibes. Still feeling it a week after the show. Thanks, Matthew and band.

Great to see an iconic musician like Matthew Sweet at the high noon saloon!
