SOUL ASYLUM IN CONCERT:
Although synths and neon clothing were staples of the '80s, alternative band Soul Asylum stuck to their guns with their guitar-driven grunge sound and ripped jeans. 30 years since after their debut, the band still knows how to rock a crowd, as Dave Pirner's unique, raspy voice carries their powerful music to new heights and stirs emotion in audiences nationwide. Whether they're playing '90s cult classic "Runaway Train" or treating fans to newer tunes, Soul Asylum always deliver a vigorous live performance, and fans can expect more of the same as they hit the road for the Summerland Tour 2014 with fellow rockers Everclear, Eve 6, and Spacehog.?
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Formed in the early '80s by high school friends Dave Pirner, Dan Murphy, and Karl Mueller, Soul Asylum got their start performing local shows in their home state of Minnesota. After gaining a strong following in the area, they released their 1984 debut Say What You Will...Everything Can Happen, embarking on the first of what would become many rigorous headlining tours. In their three decades together, Soul Asylum have released ten albums, two reaching Platinum certification, as well as two No. 1 singles. As a defining rock band of the '90s, Soul Asylum will bring a healthy dose of nostalgia on the road with them in 2014 as they treat fans to hit-filled sets on their highly anticipated Summerland Tour.?
FANS WHO BOUGHT TICKETS SAY:
"Soul Asylum absolutely brought the house down! The show was very high energy and masterfully performed. These guys know what true rock & roll is all about and delivered one hell of a show. I can't recommend it enough!"
"Soul Asylum sounded great. Dave Pirner hasn't lost anything, and the band was tight."
"They were AMAZING and had so much energy! Loved every minute of it, and would definitely see them again!"
I wasn't super familiar with Soul Asylum's catalog. I only knew a few of the hits. But, this concert made me a fan. The band's playing is super tight and professional. Lyrics are engaging and heartfelt and the fans really get into. I will definitely see them again!
I’ve been a faithful Soul Asylum fan since they began. I was blown away by how rude the audience was. The couple in front of me talked loudly through the whole concert and the large group behind us were so drunk and annoying that we could barely hear the concert. No, I’m not an old lady. I was back downtown on Friday for The Suburbs concert at 1st Ave. I’m just a supportive and loving fan who wishes people who aren’t fans or who are rude would just go somewhere else.
Phenomenal evening with Ivan Neville Band starting a new tour with some wonderful new songs added to an already considerable group of ones already appreciated. Soul Asylum and the great players joining for this acoustic event really showed us how it can be done with style and grace. I was particularly impressed with Made to be Broken arranged and performed for this event along with many favorites and a few rarities from throughout their catalog of releases. Truly an event I felt honored and privileged just to be there.
Local band I grew up with living in uptown. Brought back so many good memories of good times.
Ive been a fan for years. They are still just as good if not better than the 90's. Dave Pirner talks with the crowd and makes it fun. Cant wait to go again!
The music was 5 out of 5 stars – everything I wanted it to be, sounded great. The one issue is with the Cabot – they really need to add a men's room on the 2nd floor.
First time seeing Soul Asylum in about 20 years was not expecting an acoustic concert but they did not let me down the two players seemed tight. Saw them at the Cabot Theatre great venue for this kind of show. They played all their hits and a few songs I didn’t know but sounded great was a lot of fun
I didn't realize the show was acoustic, but was pleasantly surprised. The venue was very nice and Soul Asylum very entertaining.
Corey Glover from Living Colour at the open followed by the music and comedy stylings of Soul Asylum - and acoustic to boot! A+
All i can say is beyong AMAZING.. Bucklist band and already have tickets for another state. Corey Glover was an incredible addition.
